Here's something that could eliminate multiple items on packing lists to pack that is a multi-purpose cream, Aquaphor. You can use it for cracked skin, as lip balm, diaper rashes, burns, and so many other things too, and is very safe to use for babies. It comes in a couple sizes (we usually get the tiny tubes for DS's Diaper Bag, especially for flying or the 2 oz. tubes) and keep the 15 oz. tub for home and if we take car trips. Aquaphor has been such a lifesaver for our family and is the only thing that works on DS's diaper rashes (works even better than Balmex, Desatin, & Fusion which is a prescription) and we use a tad bit on his dry/cracked lips too. I just thought I'd mention this to anyone who hasn't tried Aquaphor or know about it. It's great and really could take away the need for a couple extra toiletries needed to be packed when traveling.
