How is it possible to fit all liquids and powders in a quart size ziplock bag?

Bag Advice

So I type this as I just had to check a bag due to having more liquid than 1 quart. I have been flying almost monthly for the last 10 years, 7 of those at this same airport in question, and my liquids have never been a problem...until today for some reason.

Is it even possible to fit skincare, shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, hair products, deodorant, and makeup into such a small ziplock? It just doesn't seem possible to me and I imagine it's a rule rarely enforced due to its ridiculousness.

Are there any tips or tricks to this? I already carry my liquids in tiny containers (like .5oz each). If this starts to become more highly enforced then I don't even know if it's possible for me to not check a bag

EDIT: I do know the requirements of tsa, but these "solids" that people are recommending were specifically called out as a reason my bag wasn't allowed through. My stick deodorant, my solid blush, my chapstick. They said all of that stuff is a type of gel/cream. My traditional liquids could probably fit in a ziplock, but they wouldn't even test it because they said "that still doesn't cover all your makeup". I don't have any liquid makeup. Just balms and powder.
