A common problem that many travellers face is one of having to carry various toiletries in their luggage. It is often found that shampoo bottles and other cosmetic items like conditioners, moisturisers have a tendency to leak if placed in an improper way within our baggage.
This not only results in a lot of inconvenience, but can also damage our personal belongings. Thus, in order to get rid of such issues, there are now many products that make our lives simpler and much more easy.
About GoBout
GoBout has been described as a device that can help users ‘carry all their essentials in one Bottle’. It can be used to dispense all of our soaps, shampoos and lotions from one portable device that is not only light, but also extremely ergonomic in nature. In addition to all this, GoBout is completely customizable and can be used by an individual anywhere, anytime.
Also, the device makes it easy to pack all our required liquids in one simple container. Some of the key features of GoBout include:
- Compact: in relation to its size, the bottle is extremely well crafted and can be easily packed into any small bag or luggage item.
- Spill-Free: the bottle is completely sealed and has been made to be absolutely spill free. Thus, users can load the bottle to the brim and still not be worried about any leakage related issues.
- Environmentally Friendly: to promote awareness, the bottle has been crafted with materials that are absolutely natural and do not have an adverse impact on our environment.
- Safe For Outdoor Use: apart from carrying in our luggage, GoBout is also the perfect companion for our camping, road trips. It is highly durable and can be used on the go in various different scenarios.
Why GoBout?
Packing our toiletries can be an extremely arduous task. It has been observed that traveling with separate containers not only consumes valuable space, but often leaves our stuff susceptible to leak attacks.
Also, no matter how organized one is, it can always be tough to keep track of individual containers on the fly. Thus, GoBout delivers on two fronts, ‘simplicity and environmental friendliness’.
Environmental Aspect of Gobout
Conventionally, we carry all of our toiletries in separate travel size bottles, that are often placed inside a plastic bag. While not always advisable, this is quite often the only alternative we have.
Studies have also shown that millions of people use plastic containers and plastic bags to transport toiletries every day. Out of this, ‘tens of billions of plastic toiletry containers end up in waste landfills every year’. This number is extremely alarming, and the situation needs to be addressed if we are to save our planet from pollution related catastrophes.
GoBout helps solve this crisis by offering users with a convenient way of reusing travel size bottles. All one needs to do is, refill our capsules at home and then store them in our dispenser.
GoBout Purchase Options
There are essentially two size variants that one can choose from. These include:
(i) Small GoBout: in the small version, there are four inbuilt capsules that we can utilise. Also, in terms of its capacity, the small version carries less than 100 ml or 3.4 ounces of liquid solution in total. Lastly, we don't need to remove the capsules from the main body as it has been fabricated in compliance with all of the international ‘flying Safety’ rules that have been outlined by safety agencies worldwide.
(ii) Large GoBout: the large version features five inbuilt capsules which are all less than 100 ml or 3.4 ounces in capacity. However, due to its large overall capacity, the bottle may be highlighted at some airport security checks, thus the individual capsules may have to be detached from the central unit and kept aside.

In terms of availability, the product is still in its kickstarter phase, and thus many small early bird prizes can be availed of. Some of the key offers include:
