Honest question: when’s the last time you finished a tube of chapstick?
If you can’t remember, you’re not alone. From lip balms to face creams, beauty and health products are incredibly easy to lose. Add in the products that TSA takes away, or lotion and shampoo leaks that can leave your purse a goopy mess — and the pain from traveling with your favorite products can really add up…not to mention the cost.
Despite this being an issue that virtually everyone I know struggles with, there has been almost no improvement in packaging in my lifetime. Which is why when my friend turned me on to Cadence capsules I was blown away (and instantly hooked).
Magnetic, Spill-Proof, and Infinitely Refillable
The premise behind Cadence is simple: your trips are dynamic — your travel accessories should be too.
Cadence does this by creating capsules for all your products, which you can then cluster together (or separate) to bring only the amount of products you need. You can fill one capsule with your favorite night cream, another with your go-to shampoo, and others with your vitamins or jewelry.
By stacking the individual capsules together magnetically, you can create anything from a chain of just two — to a ‘honeycomb’ of six, eight or even 10.
The containers are all 100% watertight and airtight and the sturdy shape means no spills in your bag if you accidentally lean too much weight against it (or if your bag gets crushed a cramped overhead storage compartment). Plus the screw-on tops are magnetic as well, meaning you’ll never have to worry about dropping and losing the lids on yucky airport or subway floors.
Cadence knows how annoying it is to not be able to get the last of your product out of a container, so they designed their capsules with a smooth, edge-free interior — meaning you can scoop out the last of your product with ease. Just fill up the amount you need and go. You’ll never need to worry about losing even one drop of your favorite face oil again.
And the best part is Cadence’s capsules hold 0.56 oz, guaranteeing that you’re always TSA complaint. No more needing to buy leaky travel bottles or pray a TSA agent doesn’t hassle you over a slightly oversized bottle bursting out of your ziplock.
Customized Labels, Icons, and Colors
Beyond the convenience of the capsule stacking, one of my favorite things about Cadence is just how cute the capsules look. Apart from the company’s obsession with the evolutionary-perfect honeycomb shape, they’ve mastered the natural minimalist aesthetic. Their palette is all nature-inspired pastel colors such as eucalyptus green, charcoal black, petal pink — and my favorite, terracotta.
You can choose a monochrome color scheme to have a muted, subtle presence in your bag OR mix and match to create your own personal rainbow. There’s no wrong way to do it!
Plus Cadence lets you customize your capsules with symbols or whatever text you want. Choose from a variety of pre-designed symbols (like a sun for sunscreen) or simply type out exactly what’s in each capsule. Jewelry, face wash, retinol, vitamins, days of the week — it’s completely up to you how to customize.
Eco-Friendly Materials
Another thing that makes Cadence one of my favorite new companies is their sustainability goals. Every capsule is made from recycled ocean-bound plastic, meaning Cadence is actively diverting plastic waste away from ending up in our oceans. Not to mention, every Cadence capsule means one less mini travel bottle purchased. These capsules are not only designed with maximum structural integrity, but with an intention to keep our world beautiful and clean for the next generation of travelers.
