The Best Toiletry Bottles To Avoid Leaks And Spills In Transit (2024)

Materials: Silicone, plastic |Number of bottles: 10 |Labels:No

Pros:

• Large set
• Different colors help differentiate products

Cons:

• Not as stylish as other options

No matter where you’re headed, this complete set of 10 toiletry bottles keeps your liquids and soaps organized and easy to access when needed. It comes with four 3-ounce bottles, three cream jars, two toothbrush covers and one clear bag, so it will easily set you up for any style of upcoming trip. Each bottle is crafted from soft silicone, which is easy to squeeze and refill as needed, and the bottles and cream jars are different colors, so you can easily distinguish between products.

Materials: Silicone |Number of bottles: 4 |Labels:Yes

Pros:

• Clear containers for increased visibility
• Built-in suction cups
• Adjustable labels

Cons:

• Only comes with four bottles

These toiletry bottles from LiquiSnugs are constructed from BPA-free, clear silicone that lets you see what’s stored in each container. For added convenience, there’s also an adjustable label on the bottom of each container (just twist the bottom to switch between soap, shampoo, conditioner and lotion). Each bottle is built with a suction cup so that you can stick them on shower walls and doors to save valuable counter space. While the two sizes (3-ounce and 2-ounce) are helpful for most trips, those who need cream jars or additional sizes should opt for the Teapile Travel Bottle Set, our best overall pick.

Materials: Silicone |Number of bottles: 4 |Labels:No

Pros:

• Different colors help differentiate products
• Wide mouth is easy to refill
• Comes with a clear zippered bag

Cons:

• No labels

This highly rated option is versatile, easy to use and affordable, so you can stock up on several sets without breaking the bank. Each set has four 3-ounce silicone bottles with a leakproof, wide mouth for easy refilling and cleaning. Although these bottles do not come with labels, the different colors help you distinguish one product from another. Plus, you can choose from 13 different color palettes if you want to match these containers to your luggage.

Materials:Waterproof 30D Cordura ripstop nylon|Number of bottles: 3 |Labels:Yes

Pros:

• Snap loop can attach to a backpack or weekender
• Space-saving design is excellent for a small dopp kit

Cons:

• Expensive

To save space in your luggage or dopp kit, Matador’s toiletry bottles are an excellent option that resembles a pouch rather than a bottle. The 3-ounce vessel is made from ripstop nylon that won’t break or tear and a plastic flip cap that’s easy to use. The snap loop also allows you to attach each bottle to a backpack or weekender bag (especially handy if you’re camping or backpacking and need easy access to soap), and there’s a label for you to write in the contents of each bottle. Take note: Some customers say that thicker products are difficult to squeeze out of this style of container.

Ries The Essential Refillable Travel Container Set

Materials: Medical-grade PCR (a recycled plastic resin)|Number of bottles: 5 |Labels:Yes

Pros:

• Airless pump minimizes exposure to air and light (which keeps the formula stable)
• Fully recyclable
• Dishwasher safe

Cons:

• Expensive
• Pre-labeled design can’t be adjusted

Unlike the other options on this list, these travel bottles from Ries have a unique airless pump that restricts airflow and light to keep your products stable and pure. Each bottle is silicone-free, dishwasher safe and has a leak-tight dual locking system to prevent spills and mishaps. Although it’s designed to be refilled and used repeatedly, Ries products are fully recyclable.

This set is admittedly the most expensive pick we highlight, but it comes with five durable and well-designed bottles (three 3.4-ounce and two 1.7-ounce sizes) suitable for short and long trips. I own this set and have used them to store lotions, shampoos and more without any leaking—even on a long, bumpy road trip through several states.

Materials: BPA and PFA-free recycled plastic|Number of bottles: As many as you want |Labels:Yes

Pros:

• Magnetic design prevents capsules from separating in your bag
• Modular, stackable shape keeps your dopp kit organized
• Wide mouth is easy to refill

Cons:

• Expensive
• Less hygienic than pumps or squeeze bottles

These stylish capsules by Cadence are magnetic, which keeps them together and ensures you never lose a bottle of your favorite product. You can customize the labels, choose your colors (there are seven to choose from), and select small, medium or large containers. The capsules’ double-walled design also protects against drops and spills, so you don’t have to worry if they slip out of your hands while washing up. I recently started traveling with Cadence capsules and appreciate the stackable, modern design and how easy it is to refill them, thanks to the wide mouth.

Materials: Silicone|Number of bottles: 3 |Labels:Yes

Pros:

• Extra wide mouth is easy to refill
• Comes with a Loop Lock for extra security
• Tube is dishwasher safe

Cons:

• Only comes with three bottles

These Go Toob+ toiletry bottles have a 25% wider opening than the original Go Toob style, making them much easier to refill and keep clean. The set of three comes in different colors, and there’s a blank space under the cap to note the contents of each bottle. Another benefit? A handy Loop Lock swivels out from each cap, allowing you to hang it on a hook, shower caddy or carabiner. (It also functions as a lock.) Reviewers give this product high marks for its leak-proof design and overall ease of use, but note that liquids can come out quickly, so squeeze gently—especially after flying.

Materials: Silicone, plastic|Number of bottles: 8 |Labels:No

Pros:

• Variety of bottles for different liquids and lotions
• Includes a clear pouch

Cons:

• No labels

Most toiletry bottle sets only come with only one type of bottle, so if you need a mix of bottles, jars, flat-pack options and more, this pick from Open Story offers great value. There are eight pieces in total, including a lotion bottle, a spray bottle, two silicone bottles, two flat-pack bottles and two jars. The spray bottle is ideal for perfume, while the two jars are great for storing eye cream or even supplements. Everything is stored in a compact clear pouch that can be tossed in a backpack or purse during long travel days. (Only two other products in this guide come with a clear travel pouch: the Teapile Travel Bottle Set, our best overall pick, and the Mrsdry Travel Bottles, another great value option).
