The question we hear most often in winter isn't about ingredients. It's this one: "Can I bring it on the plane?"
For a long time, our answer wasn't a great one. Our regular bottles are over the 100 mL limit for carry-on liquids, so you had two choices. Check a bag, or decant your lotion into a little pot and hope it survives the trip.
If you live with PMLE, you know why this matters. That February beach week is exactly when sun-sensitive skin is least ready for strong sun. After months of grey Canadian winter, the first bright days hit hard. It's when your routine matters most, and it has always been the most annoying part of packing.
So we finally did something about it.
What's new
We now have two travel kits, both in 100 mL airless bottles that go straight into your clear liquids bag:
AGR+E Travel Kit. AGR+E Daily in a 100 mL bottle, with or without AGR+E Overnight.
Sol+3 Travel Kit. Sol+3 in a 100 mL bottle, with or without AGR+E Overnight.
Same formulas you already know. Just smaller, and ready to fly.
Why we chose airless bottles
We tested a few formats before settling on airless. An airless pump keeps the lotion away from air and fingers until the moment you use it, and it pushes out almost every last bit, so you're not shaking a bottle upside down on day six of your trip.
Which kit is right for you?
If AGR+E Daily is already part of your routine, the AGR+E Travel Kit is the simple choice. It's the one we'd pack for most trips.
If you're one of the many long-time customers who switched to Sol+3 for sunny days, the Sol+3 Travel Kit is for you.
Why we're not selling single travel bottles
You might wonder why the 100 mL size only comes as a kit. The travel size is meant to come along with you, not to be your first try. If you're new to Shirudo, we'd rather you start with a regular size at home, a few weeks before you leave. That way you get to know how your skin likes it before you're somewhere sunny and far from home.
Availability
The travel kits are launching in limited quantities. If you're planning a winter getaway, we'd suggest ordering now. If there's a trip on your calendar this winter, we hope these make packing one less thing to think about.
Safe travels, and see you in the sun.
