The MINI Obsession

I'm going away in a week time for a week of holiday in Shanghai (Woohoo)! However, my working schedule is a bit pack till the day I fly away, I will have to pack my bags (on my roster day off) days before the departure day.

I always prefer to get travel size products than transferring my products into a travel size container (if you get what I mean, I'm just lazy like that). So I started to buy travel size products/ travel kit, I'm such a sucker for miniature things. Long story short, when I started to pack my toiletries for the holiday, I found out these pile of miniatures I got in my stash! It's a drawer full of miniature products I have there! In my defense, part of them are samples given to me from several events and gifts I got from some of my shopping. Also, I always tend to ask for the sample size when I bought the full size of a product.

I know it's a lot but these minis come in really handy when it comes to travel. Right size to bring on flight if you want to travel light. Also, You can just chuck the containers away when you finish the product at the end of your holiday, which will eventually cut down your weight to go home. More room for your other stuff (e.g shopping).

Any how, I will roughly list down the brands in few categories I have in this pile (This is how I organise them too).
