When packing makeup products in your hand luggage, the key rule to remember is the 100ml limit for liquids, gels, and creams. You're allowed to bring multiple containers, but each must not exceed 100ml, and all must fit into a single, transparent, resealable plastic bag of approximately 1 liter in capacity. This bag must be presented separately from your carry-on luggage at security checkpoints. Solid makeup products, like powder blushes or eyeshadows, don't fall under this restriction and can be packed without these limitations.
