I'm wondering how women feel about the new "liquids" rule before boarding a plane. They're making women throw out perfumes, cosmetics, and other essentials. Also, what do you do when you get to your destination without makeup? Do you buy more when you get there?

Don't know what the big deal is, you can pack it in check-on luggage, both in US and in UK .....
Its the people who were trying to get it through without checking it who had to dump it.

First of all, the airplane wouldn't blow up because of my perfume or other liquids I would have in my purse. Don't tend to exagerate with presumptions and question like "what would you do if...?" They take these security means because they found out it can be blown by some combination of liquids with explosibles. Terrorists prepare long for this, and it wouldn't have nothing to do with my perfume.
Anyway, they're not making anyone do anything...wrong conception, they are only trying to be sure that those kind of goods (liquids of any type) are not to be carried in the carry-on baggage, meaning you can still put them in the hold luggage. Nobody forces you to leave your stuff in the airport...
For what I'm concerned, if something like this occurs to me, having in my hand bag liquids or stuff that can prejudiciate the flight, I would go back to the check-in counter, make them give me back my luggage and put all the stuff there. This is possible...and if this can't be done (because of flight delays or something like that), and the stuff is really expensive, I would try to give it to them in custody for when I return. And if this is not possible either, than I would say :"That's it, nothing can't be replaced, specially material stuff". I wouldn't be angry at all.

I don't really wear much liquid make up, so it wouldn't be too bad for me. I guess how we'll have to cope it just buy the tiny shampoos and cheap make-ups when you arrive at your destination.

No I wouldn't feel annoyed if it was for safety reasons. I mean the terrorists were hiding bomb components in them for goodness sake! Would u rather be blown up?
Lmao at Jason's comment!

You can put them in your checked luggage but you cant carry it on-board the plane.
They throw them out if they didnt follow the directions before checking in luggage.

I'm sure no one would mind in order to stay alive but at the same time the terrorists are winning because we are steadily losing our rights and privileges and that's what they want.

Sure I would, but I'd feel a tad worse if the plane blew up in midflight.

No, I don't wear make-up, and I wouldn't want to put others at risk either just for the sake of trying to look hollywood.

The real question should be why someone should feel so insecure that they have to bring makeup with them.
