Flammable oil. Not allowed, although some airlines do seem fine with it coming into the UK. It's generally on the dangeous goods signs at check-in.
Should be fine with say a small 100ml bottle for beauty purposes, but 0.5-1 litres+ are a no-no.
Some people do pack metal 5 litre cans in their checked bags.
