Brussels Airport Necessities

We will be connecting in Brussels next month and have never been there before. Since we have a 3-plus hour layover, I was hoping to pick up some toiletries, like contact lense solution and hairspray. (We aren't checking bags from here in the U.S. but due to Brussels Airlines' size restrictions, will have to check there).

On a quick search of BRU's website, I see a grocery store listed and a Relay. Does anyone know if either store sells toiletry items? Or if there's another store at the airport that will sell them?

Thank you in advance!

What is your destination after Brussels? No idea if the airport stores have toiletries- they likely do, but at airport prices. You'll likely find a much better selection at better prices in a store close to where you'll be staying.

Our final destination is Milan.

I had read that many stores in Italy close around 6 pm, or 6:30. Didn't want to run the risk of not making it in time - - and we are leaving the following morning around 7 am for a day trip!

Bring enough in your 3 oz allowance to hold you for a day or 2 and then hit a drug store for a larger supply?
