Gosh this is going to suck. I'm going on vacation on Wed and I always fly with some MAC mist because it's so dry up there on the plane.. I like to keep hydrated and moisturized. Now you can't bring it anymore!! Doesn't matter too much this time cos flight time is not to long but I fly to Malaysia every year and that's a 18+hr flight. I'll be a human beef-jerky when it's all said and done!! :sick:

Hm.... problem. Fedexing the makeup is an excellent idea... but it is only a day trip.

I am flying out thursday morning andcoming back thursday night. I am not checking anything so the only thing I will have wihtme is probably a bag taht is on the larger size.

You think I'll get in trouble if I stick a gloss in my pocket? hahaha.. I hope I won't have to into some covert operation of hiding my mac somewhere on my body... :shame:

oh don't, you'll be in so much trouble if they find it unless you're good at playing dumb.

check the regulations every day, some of the uk things have been dropped like only a plastic bag from today (tomorrow for heathrow and gatwick).

i had a bottle of jo malone perfume in my purse that i completely forgot about and they didn't take it. i suppose they were looking specifically for cosmetic cases and they didn't notice it since it was separate.

You got lucky on that one! Can't believe they didn't find it:smile1: ! I was supposed to be in LA a few weeks back and then to Hawaii...and for other reasons, plans were changed...and I am HAPPY about it!

Flying has become such a pain & scary if you ask me!:nuts:
I am sorry to hear about your make-up!:sad:

yeah, i really dodged a bullet with my jo malone, thank god it wasn't a big bottle (i left that at home and just took the $50 purse spray with me), they surely would have found that.

keep in mind that some makeup packagings might explode because of the low air pressure, soft lipgloss tubes like MAC lipgelee can easily come open... think twice before you pack your makeup, do you REALLY need it on your trip
