They can be smaller, Jilli.
I had a four ounce bottle of moisturizer joyfully thrown in the trash last year. It had about one ounce of liquid in it.
What I can't understand is why there isn't a large public outrage over the nonsensical liquid stuff and the nonsensical shoe stuff.
People just sit there and take it. I don't mean going off at the people doing the checking, I mean afterward. We all know it's bullshit. There isn't anyone who doesn't know it's bullshit. And yet...

Oh, how crazy-making. Note to self, decant your damn sunblock into a smaller bottle.
It's not a big enough inconvienience for people to lobby for change, I think. I think it's easier just to find work arounds- put it in checked baggage, find travel size stuff, decant into small plastic bottles, buy it when you get there, whatever.
Timelies all!
Am trying to type one handed because Nova has her paws on my left arm. Good thing she's so cute...
I just check it all. That way I have what I need when I arrive and I don't have to worry about sizes and ounces and all of that hoohah. I don't mind flying with minimal make-up--I slather on moisturizer to guard against the terrible dry air (which really helps) and wear some long lasting mascara and lipstick and that's it. I fetch my make-up out of my checked bag when I land if I need it. I never fly anywhere for a short enough period that I could make do with just carry-on luggage anyway.
My luggage got delayed when I went to Holland for my brother's wedding and I pretty much took it as an excuse to by cool foreign make-up.

I'm pretty sure everything has to be in original labeled bottles. (I bought sample-size bottles of all the things I use regularly, and just refill those from the bigger ones whenever I'm going somewhere.)

Ohgodpleaseno. Because certain things, like my sunblock, don't come in sample or travel sizes.
My mom just called to confirm my pickup time in the morning and to say I should get a good night's sleep because she's taking me outlet shopping. Whoot!
I don't think it has to be original. I got Mr. Jane a Dopp kit with all the right size bottles and that was fine when he flew to Louisville.
