Travel-Friendly Beauty Products to Pack for The Fourth of July

TSA's baggage and liquid restrictions can really be a mood killer when you're heading out of town for a holiday weekend. While you may pledge our allegiance to your favorite hair and makeup products, airport security isn’t so patriotic and won’t give your shampoo and conditioner a free pass if they’re over the liquid limits.

Since we’re mere days away from the holiday, I'm stepping it up and doing a little planning ahead by sorting out what products you can actually travel with you. Whether you’re hitting the beach, camping, or heading to a spa getaway, the following ten products are guaranteed to make it onto the plane.

It might sound dramatic, but there’s no worse way to start a long weekend than with your dry shampoo being confiscated at the airport because it exceeds the size regulations. You can avoid watching your products get thrown in the trash by thinking ahead. Swap your go-to can for a mini one like Batiste's, and it will make it through security every single time.
