Can you take make up as a carry-on on a airplane?

I;m going to be taking liquid foundation, face and eye primer, eyeshadow, gel eyeliner, mascara, pencil eyeliner, blush and lip glossI;m also going to be taking perfume, hair detangler, shampoo/conditioner, heat protectant,toothpaste, deoterant, soap and saline solution for my contact lenses. If everything is under 3.oz can I take it and put it in my purse? Also can you take a hair straightner with you or should I leave that in my suit case? Also if its more than 3 oz can I pour it into a clear 3 oz container.|||yes. you can have as many 3.4 oz containers as you want as long as they all fit into a quart size zip lock bag. all your makeup and things have to fit into one carry on bag. you can bring a hair straightener in your carry on if you want. if you are really concerned about something just put it in your checked bag.|||Anything that;s a liquid, gel, paste, lotion, cream or aerosol must be in a container 3.4 oz. (100mL) or less and be placed in a clear plastic one-quart zip-top baggie. If it;s solid (like your blush, eyeliner and eye shadow) it does NOT have to go in the baggie. And yes, you CAN pour over-sized liquids into a container 3.4 oz. or smaller; I have done this before, just make sure the container has the size printed on it. All of the things you mentioned are totally fine to have in your carry-on.If you run out of room in your liquids baggie before you get everything in, you can always leave the saline solution out of the baggie. Saline solution is a medical exemption to the 3-1-1 rule; all you have to do is declare it to a TSA officer once you get to the security checkpoint.
