Question about bringing liquid when traveling abroad via airplane

I'm just curious about airport liquid rules when traveling abroad. So I decided about posting my question in yahoo answer. After a few minutes I received some excellent answers from yahoo users.

Question: Are we allowed to bring lotion, shampoo, toothpaste, cologne, perfume and other liquid when traveling abroad?
( I plan to travel to China and South Korea and I just wonder if there are restrictions about bringing liquid abroad. Please help! Thanks)

Answers:
" If you are referring to airplane travel, all liquids must be 3 oz or less. This includes shampoo, toothpaste, lotion, cologne, and any other liquids. The only exceptions are baby formula. Then, of course, you must have a baby with you. For any other airline restrictions, just type in "TSA" and it will give you a complete run down on what not to bring." -Time Travler-

"In your carry-on, yu can have one 1 qt. size zip lock bag and put as many 3 oz bottles of liquids in it as will fit. in your checked luggage you can have any size liquis you want...but they will be heavy. Why not just buy them when you get there...I am sure they are avail."

"If ever you are not sure, just put in in your check-in baggage. There everything (except illegal stuff like drugs) is allowed. Restrictions and problems will only occur with hand-carriage. Perfume and liquid soap etc will be confiscated!" -Patrick Nestler- (comments)

on all the airlines i have been on its been 100 ml bottles or less only, i have bought as big as 200 ml without questions though. just display them in a clear zip lock bag, oh and you can also take whatever you want in your check in luggage. the problem is the hold is not well pressurized so bottles may pop open so put each bottle in its own ziplock in your check in luggage (they can be any size)-jjj-



Guys, thank you so much for answering my question. Your answers are very helpful.
