If you've been asking yourself can you carry on nail polish on a plane, the answer is yes—within TSA guidelines. Nail polish falls under liquid restrictions, meaning only bottles 3.4 ounces or smaller can be packed in your carry-on and must be stored in a quart-sized liquids bag. For checked luggage, the limitations are more flexible, but packing them securely with bubble wrap or leak-proof pouches is recommended. Because nail polish is flammable, airlines require it to be properly sealed and safely stored. With these guidelines in mind, you can travel confidently knowing your must-have nail shades are allowed and safely packed for your destination.
