You won’t have to toss your toiletries, as long as they come in an acceptable form.  Here are some TSA-friendly alternatives to common personal grooming products:

Handiwipes and Wetnaps instead of gel hand-sanitizer
Dental Dots or Brush-ups instead of toothpaste
Solid sunblock
Solid shampoos and moisturizing dusting powder by a U.K.-based company called Lush - this company also has solid moisturizers.
Powder toothpaste

Of course other companies and brands exist for these types of portable products and more.  Do you know of a product that you can put in your carry on, but in traditional form might be banned?  Share it with us!
