Once you start traveling a bit you start to have certain routines. The only reason for this is probably because you want to avoid as much hassle as possible and lose as little time as possible. One of those routines for me is putting my shaving cream, toothpaste and other liquids in a separate plastic bag before putting it in my toiletry kit. It’s not the first time that one of those things start leaking and then the whole bag is dirty.
Today, thanks to the PSFK blog, I found this fantastic innovation that might change this. Paper shampoo: “These small pieces of paper like material are impregnated with hair cleaner that dissolves upon contact with water.” This makes it very easy to pack, it can’t leak, it reduces the environmental footprint and they will not stop you at the security gate. Apparently they also have shaving paper and laundry detergent.
I don’t know which shops have it yet but you can buy it online at Spoonsisters for $12.50, which is not too expensive!
Now that is product innovation! If you know of any products that can help travelers, let us know?

Seems like the price has dropped now to six dollars on the Spoonsisters site. 12.50 seemed a tad pricey for me for one package (30 sheets).
