Opposite check-in in T1, Health & Glow fills basic gaps fast
In Chennai’s Terminal T1, Health & Glow sits in the pre-flight shopping strip and covers everyday pharmacy-plus-beauty needs in one stop. You’ll see the familiar orange signage near domestic check-in, with shelves of personal care and travel-sized products that save a last‑minute trip outside the airport. Think shampoo, soap, sanitary products, basic grooming tools, and sunscreen at standard city pricing, not inflated “airport only” rates.
The shop runs roughly from first departures out of T1 until late-evening flights, matching the domestic schedule rather than strict mall-style hours. Expect typical Indian high-street brands you’d see in town: Lakmé, Maybelline, Himalaya, Nivea, and a rotating mix of budget and mid-range skincare. Makeup options are decent for a quick top-up, but this isn’t a luxury cosmetics counter, and shade ranges can skew limited, so plan accordingly if you’re picky.
Health & Glow in T1 stocks everyday medicines like painkillers, cold tablets, and basic first-aid, though prescription items are hit or miss and depend on the current pharmacist on duty. Prices track what you’d pay in a city outlet, with frequent “buy 1 get 1” or 15–20% combo offers on haircare and skincare. Staff usually ring up promo prices automatically, but it’s still worth checking the printed MRP and discount on the bill before you leave the counter.
If you tend to forget toiletries, build a 5–10 minute buffer before heading to security and hit Health & Glow in T1 first so you’re not scrambling for basics near the gates, where options thin out fast.
