Woman reveals 'genius' tip for beating liquid rules at an airport

AIRLINES have strict policies on carrying liquids onto a plane, which can make packing tricky.

But one woman has revealed a clever hack for getting additional liquids through security, and she claims it doesn't break any rules.

Tiktok user Emily McKeon shared a tip with her 22,000 followers explaining how to carry liquid make up remover and face wash in your hand luggage.

She advised travellers to put some cotton pads into a plastic bag and pour make up remover or face wash onto them.

The pads will soak the products up so there won't be any liquid.

By keeping the cotton pads in a sealed, airtight bag, they will remain moist so you can use them when you get to your destination.

One person wrote: "Omg why have I never thought about this!"

Another put: "I needed to know about this right now, thanks, just about to pack."

Some flight attendants have revealed the products they pack to reduce the amount of liquids they're carrying.

They suggest taking soap, shampoo and conditioner bars instead of their liquid counterparts.

The bars are solid and can be packed away in your luggage instead of taking up space in your very limited liquids bag.
