Holiday Hacks: How to Travel with Your Favourite COW Home & Body Products

Packing for a holiday can be a fine art—especially when you're a fan of self-care rituals and gorgeous scents. But don’t worry: your COW Home & Body favourites are more travel-friendly than you might think. Whether you're heading off on a beach getaway, music festival, glamping trip or a city break, we've got the tips and product hacks to keep your skin soft, your scent game strong, and your packing stress-free.

Here’s how to take COW on holiday with you—with zero leaks, zero faff, and 100% indulgence.

1. Ditch the Bottles: Bring a Mini Soap-Infused Sponge

Forget fiddly travel bottles or leaky shower gels—our Mini Soap-Infused Sponges are the ultimate travel hack. Each one is pre-loaded with high-quality, skin-loving soap and ready to use straight out of the packet. Just add water and lather up!

🧽 Perfect for:

  • Camping & Festivals – No need to pack separate soap or shower gel.
  • Hand luggage holidays – They're solid, so no issues at airport security.
  • Weekend breaks – Small, light, and single-use friendly.

💡 Top Tip: Pack a few different scents to suit your mood while you’re away—zesty for morning showers, relaxing for evening wind-downs.

2. Decant Your Whipped Soap into Travel Pots

If you can't bear to be without your whipped soap on holiday (we get it), just decant a small amount into a reusable 50–100ml pot. This gives you a few days' worth of indulgent showers without taking up suitcase space.

🧼 Why it works:

  • Saves space and weight in your bag
  • Keeps your full-size pots safe at home
  • You can match your scent to the vibe of your trip

💡 Pro Packing Hack: Place cling film under the lid before screwing it shut to avoid leaks. Then pop the pot into a reusable zip bag just to be safe.

3. Spritz On the Go with Bottl’d Testers

Our Bottl’d perfume dupes come in generous 50ml bottles, but when it comes to travel, our 5ml testers are ideal. Small, slim, and handbag-ready, these spritzers let you carry your signature scent wherever the journey takes you.

✨ Why they’re great:

  • Small enough for planes, festivals, handbags and clutch bags
  • Perfect for topping up after beach days or dancing all night
  • TSA-compliant—no stress at airport security

💡 Scent Tip: Take a few testers and create a mini scent wardrobe for your trip. Fresh and floral by day, rich and sexy by night.

4. Pack Light, Smell Lush

If you're a scent lover, don’t underestimate the power of fragrance in your travel experience. Here are a few ways to weave your favourite scents into your holiday vibe:

  • Pop a wax melt in your suitcase or laundry bag to keep clothes smelling fresh (even in a soggy festival tent!)
  • Line your suitcase with tissue paper lightly spritzed with Bottl’d for a luxe opening experience
  • Tuck a soap-infused sponge into your trainers or flip-flops to keep your shoes fresh on the go

 

5. Simplify Your Routine for On-the-Go Indulgence

You don’t need to bring your entire bathroom shelf. Focus on the essentials that make you feel great:

💡 Bonus Tip: Store your holiday minis in a clear pouch so they’re easy to grab at airport security or when unpacking in your hotel.

6. Staycation or Getaway, Bring the COW Comforts

Even if you’re not hopping on a plane, these travel-friendly tips apply just as well to:

  • Spa weekends
  • Beach days
  • Hen parties
  • Girls' trips
  • Glamping adventures

Pack light but luxe. After all, pampering doesn’t take a holiday.

Planning a UK road trip or countryside escape? Don’t forget to set the mood from the moment you start the engine with one of our stylish Hanging Car Diffusers. Designed to bring a little COW Home & Body luxury to your journey, these compact glass diffusers clip easily onto your rear-view mirror and gently scent your car with every mile. Choose from a range of our best-loved fragrances, and when the scent starts to fade, simply top up with our refillable fragrance oils—eco-friendly, affordable, and perfect for long drives, coastal cruises, or daily commutes that could use a little more joy.
