Just to be safe, pack a plastic ziplock bag extra.
Before you disembark put the toothpaste, creams etc. in there so you can offer it visible to security.
Better be prepared and safe instead of holding up the queue behind you if they do need to do an extra seach.
I have forgotten it twice at DXB and once it was just ignored because i was chatting away, the second time i had to search my amenitykit and show the liquids and caused a wait at the priority security lane
