Visit the doctor for scrapes, cuts, removal of bits of skin, etc. Every time I’ve ever had a wound to care for, they’ve given me more gauze and little packets of antibiotic ointment than I could possibly use.

Iirc REI has a selection of tiny packets. For other toiletries I’ve seen “travel” sizes in my grocery (Wegmans)

I use minimus for this. Also good source for things like small/light toothbrushes, condiments (mayo, ketchup, etc.), lotion/sunblock.

Another option is to diy containers of whatever size you want using drinking straws -- pinch an end closed using pliers with a little of the straw sticking out and melt that closed, then cut to whatever length you want, then fill will ointment, then pinch and melt the other end closed. Label each with a Sharpie.
