"Pajamas, socks, underwear, my razor&amp;amp;#8212;you name it and I&amp;amp;#8217;ve forgotten to tuck it into my suitcase on at least one trip. But the thing I leave behind the most is actually kind of ridiculous, considering it&amp;#x27;s a beauty item and I write about makeup. What do I forget most often?Lipgloss. I know it&amp;amp;#8217;s silly. But I&amp;amp;#8217;d say in all the trips I&amp;#x27;ve taken where I&amp;amp;#8217;ve forgotten to pack something in the last few years, about a 1/2 of the time the thing I left behind was lipgloss. There&amp;amp;#8217;s a reason for this. And it&amp;amp;#8217;s all about what I&amp;amp;#8217;m wearing when I&amp;#x27;m loading up my suitcase. I&amp;amp;#8217;ll explain. You see, I rarely wear anything on my lips during the day, so it doesn&amp;amp;#8217;t usually occur to me to stick my lip color inside whatever purse I&amp;#x27;m using unless I&amp;amp;#8217;m going out at night. So, basically, my party outfits are my trigger. But when I&amp;amp;#8217;m getting myself set for a trip, I&amp;amp;#8217;m in comfy clothes, so lipgloss doesn&amp;amp;#8217;t pop into my head the same way. Perhaps I should start packing in heels...Or, you know, just put a Post-It reminder on the door or something. What about you: What do you forget most often?
