Our Favorite TSA-Approved Beauty PicksThe dreaded 3.4 oz. liquid rule doesn't keep us from traveling with carry-on gems |
Complaining about traveling is the great unifier; Everybody looooves to moan. And while, yes, walking through the grimy security line barefoot as your flip-flops make their way down the conveyer belt is annoying, nothing compares to having to forfeit your brand new bottle of Marc Jacobs Daisy because it's over the 3.4 oz. liquid limit.
We want to help you avoid having your perfume or shampoo confiscated and taken to the beauty product graveyard at LAX, LaGuardia, or O'Hare. Check out our editors' favorite TSA-approved beauty products.
We've each ranked our top five products that come in travel-friendly sizes so you can sail through security without having to be that awkward girl that holds up the whole line because she tried to bring along her jumbo can of extra-hold hairspray. Whether we're traveling home for the holidays or off to a tropical beach vacation, these products keep us looking put-together from airport to airport.

Nice article, but the general ideas are more useful than the actual products listed: buy travel versions of your favorite products, switch to solid versions if you can (lip balm, moisturizing balms, solid perfumes). I get so many samples from my subscriptions that I just sort them out into categories (body lotion, face wash, etc) and then pick out a few to use on my trip. They're so tiny that they usually only hold a few days' worth of product, so I can throw them out before my trip home.

I think this is really useful when I'm not in the mood to subdivide all my stuff for travel.

Love this for the upcoming vacation season! I have so many samples from the boxes I receive so I am ready to go somewhere and use my travel products.

I thought that nail polish is not allowed on-board because it's flammable.

The only info useful to me in this article is about the moist wipes. I manage easily by substituting non-liquids wherever possible (solid deodorant, concealer balm), and putting necessary liquids into travel bottles or buying travel sizes.

interesting to see what "must-haves" ladies choose for travel. Aren't aerosols (like dry shampoo) and flammables (like nail polish) prohibited in hand luggage?
