Insider's honeymoon checklist

Before you go on your honeymoon to that tropical island getaway, pay a quick visit to your pharmacy. You will need to shop very carefully to get all the things you will need. Brides that will fly to their honeymoon destination have quite a struggle with airline limitations, so let’s have a look at your shopping list.
A few pointers and ideas:

    You will be restricted when flying to 100ml of any product and in total to one litre of product. This sounds like a lot, but when you combine all that you need to take with you, you will quickly see that you need to leave essentials at home.
    Buy combination products to take with you like shampoo and conditioner in one and body cream with 30+ sun screen already mixed in. This way you save two bottles.
    Most shops have 'ready to fly' product lines especially packed to pass inspection. You can buy these with confidence or simply decant some of your normal product into 100ml clear plastic bottles. That way you know and trust what you have with you.
    Liquid soap and hand cleaners are essential when travelling so find a product that you simply rub on your hands. You will find that you need a few drops, so a 100ml will get you far.
    Make up combination packs are fantastic and if you can do your base, lips and eyes from one compact you are styling. Take with it your best brush and you are set.
    Any chronic medication you may be on must be accompanied by a prescription from your doctor. This include birth control pills. Some countries will not allow certain medicines in and you may be left without it. Also make sure you have at least a thirty day supply with you.
    Pain tablets should be left in their original package. Always bring something for headaches that you know works well as in foreign countries you may end up struggling to find medication.
    Intimate products are essential as well. You may end up with a rash or irritation from a lot of sex and left untreated you will suffer pain and distress. Talk to your pharmacist – they know from experience what you need and will send you off with the best prevention and cure for that nasty honeymoon rash.
    Lubrication is your responsibility as well. To save yourself some space, this is one of those items your groom gets to carry in his bathroom bag. You choose it though before he arrives with some exotic product loaded with perfume.
    Talking about that bathroom bag – for quick inspection at airports, these must be resealable and clear.

Have fun on your honeymoon and relax, you packed everything you know you may need.
