I'm going on a trip, but I've had an incident before where our luggage was delayed and I was without makeup for a day I didn't wanna leave the hotel room lol. Do you guys usually pack makeup in your carry on? I don't think I could pack my foundation since its in a bottle? I'm not exactly sure of the rules for that stuff lol but I mean mascara lipstick? Idk do you guys know what type of makeup I'm allowed to bring in a carry on? Thanks.

I always do put it in my carry on. I take a big tote purse (like the LV NeverFull) and always take a change of clothes, makeup, and stuff to keep me entertained on the plane! As for makeup in a carry on, I don't know for liquids exactly (I can't remember) but mascara, lipstick, etc, is fine.

On most low cost companies you can't pack more than 100ml per product (liquids just like foundation, moisturizer, lipstick, mascara, lipgloss, etc). I keep all of it in small plastic bags that they usually give you before scanning your bag

All liquids over 100 ml / 3 fl oz. are not allowed on any flight but usually foundation is not that big so you should be fine. I travel a lot, I've taken 5 planes this month and I have another one tomorrow.
you should put the bigger liquid/cream items (all up to 3 oz) in a quart sized ziploc bag but I noticed they don't really care about small makeup items like lipgloss, highlighter, mascara, you can keep them in your beauty case. You will be confronted if you have a big bottle of liquid but that's it.
In my ziploc I put face cream, bengay, toothpaste and stuff like that. Make sure you check the labels. If you want to bring face wash, put it in a smaller bottle meant for traveling and check your bigger sized container. I found a great pump bottle at Muji for my cetaphil.

I agree with breeze foundations are not bigger then 3 fl oz so you would be ok just to put it in a ziplock and take it on the carry on bag... When I travel I always take my makeup on my carry on I find its better cyz your more carefull with the bag then the people who put the bags on the bottom are.

Just wondering, If a person would plan to bring two types of foundation in a carry on bag, on top of moisturizer toner etc. Is that allowed? Or is it just per time is not above 3 oz but you can bring as many in Carry on bag?

Livi yes it's allowed, each product can't be more than 3oz but you can carry as many 3 oz products that fit in your ziplock. My husband works for an airline and I too have flown often, never having an issue carrying numerous items under or equivalent to 3oz in one bag.
