Neglected to remove my Ziploc bag from my purse, apologized profusely as I walked thru the scanner, and the guy said, "No problem." DCA, fwiw.

I am with you. She doesn't need all of that stuff. I fly a lot and have noticed if you have TSA Pre and/or Clear, TSA doesn't bother you too much about the number of bottles you have as long as they are under 3 oz. At first, they were strict about 3 bottles or less


I've never heard the 3 bottles or less rule and travel almost weekly. It's basically how many you can fit in your quart size ziploc. Also they don't really care or know how many ziplocs you have. If you put them in separate bins the person looking at the screen has no idea which bins belong to which passenger.

Why don't you have to do it anymore?


S/he probably has Pre Check. You still need to do it for regular TSA, you don't need to do it for Pre Check.


You still have to have your liquids in a bag, you don’t have to remove them from your luggage. But they don’t seem to pay much attention to it. I still use the bag because every once in a while the precheck line will be closed.


I have precheck and I've never put anything in a bag. They don't care for precheck.

Stick deodorant does not need to be in the 1 quart bag. It;s a solid.

I also buy little individual packets of antiperspirant wipes for short business trips. It take up much less room than even a travel size antiperspirant. I buy them on Amazon, and I'm not sure where you can buy them in a store.


You can buy antiperspirant/deodorant wipes at Target. I also use makeup removal wipes instead of cleanser when traveling.

OP-as long as your liquids are under three oz in a 3 oz or less container, and are in a bag that's easily accessible in your purse/carry-on to grab and toss in a bin with your laptop/iPad/Kindle etc when you go through security, you'll be fine.

Op here. I have a skin condition (melasma) that requires a lot of makeup to cover up the hyperpigmentation. I don't leave my house without foundation and concealer (I envy people who can). I have long, thick hair that looks best with biosilk before a blowout. I can use hotel shampoo and conditioner as long as I use biosilk.

I'm presenting at a national conference and want to look my best, and that requires this sort of stuff.

Thx for the tips!

Not at all, it totally depends on the trip. Some two-week trips I hardly need any cosmetics. A one-day trip can need a bunch if I'm speaking at a conference or something. She also said she's heading to an event directly from her return flight, so I assume part of it is preparing for that.

Does anyone regularly travel with liquid foundation? Does it usually make it through TSA without any issues?


I do, I have a chanel foundation that is in a 1 oz size (that's the regular size).
