Chapsticks

Chapsticks are an essential part of many daily personal care routines, used to protect lips from dryness and chapping.

These products are generally permitted in both carry-on and checked baggage, ensuring your comfort throughout your journey. There are typically no special restrictions on the safe transport of chapsticks when you travel.
