This Blog Post Is About Toiletries, Not Sex

Size doesn't matter… except when it comes to toiletries. And even if they're small, they better be attached to a famous name. You know you're riding high when you get a 5 oz. bottle of Etro at the Acqualina in Miami, or even a 1 oz. bottle of Malin+Goetz at The Betsy in Miami. But in my case at the Beach Paradise in Miami's South Beach, all I got were cheap promotional samples and generic soap. It's not that the occasional vacuum-sealed packet of toothpaste is a bad thing, or Crest White Strips, Biore Restore Skin-Boosting night serum, "Beach Mist" soap, a razor, or pads and tampons -- it's just a lot less sexy to whip these out on the plane ride home.
