Yeah MathFox you did misunderstand or maybe I did not explain it well.
I am talking about full bottles of shampoo/cosmetics etc that have to be placed in a plastic "bag" ??

As long as each bottle is 100ml or less, and they fit into a regulation plastic bag (about a litre volume) then there is no problem. A half empty 200ml bottle is not allowed for some bizarre reason.
Others will, no doubt, correct me if I'm wrong

Rules for liquids and gels in the EU are essentially the same as in the USA:
You can ask the duty free store at an EU airport to seal the items you bought and that should[**] get them past the security check at another EU airport.
[*] I picked up my bag in AMS (they're free there)
[**] never tried it myself.
- individual items in containers of 100ml or less
- all items should fit in a closed, resealable bag
- of 1 liter capacity
- the bag will be x-rayed separately from your carry on
