If the aerosol can is hairspray, you'd be better off getting a small
pump bottle instead.
Breast forms - if they are silicon, you *probably* won't have a problem
(although I'm still a bit afraid that they will burst due to the change
in pressure. If I'm travelling domestically, I always ship my silicone
ahead via UPS ground). I have a pair of small hard rubber forms (I
call them my "travel tits") which have caused my luggage to be searched.
I came to the conclusion that they must "read" as the same consistency
as plastic explosives by the X-Ray machines. I only use those for
international travel, since the silicone forms take up too much space
in the luggage.
Costume jewelry shouldn't cause any problems at all.
