The liquid rule
Aerosols, gels and creams count as liquids. Each container must hold no more than 100 ml, and all of them must fit in a single transparent bag of about one litre.
Aerosols specifically
Most airports allow a small deodorant or hairspray within the 100 ml limit. Larger cans go in checked baggage, subject to the airline’s own rules on aerosols and dangerous goods.
