Right Now

Almost all of May and the first half of June was plagued with the typical sickness and general moodiness that comes with Winter and that's been reflected here in my little corner on the Internet. It doesn't help that I'll be turning a year older this week too. What have I been doing to get by? Oh you know the usual, like listening to NRJ online, marathoning some show totally not my type - this time it was Silicon Valley which I actually enjoyed. I'm half glad that Suits is back too, although I don't know if I like where this season is going. 

Last night, I felt the need to do something that would make me feel better instantly so I started with editing my out of control daily makeup bag. Funny thing is, if you saw me in real life, you'd have no idea that I'm carrying at least five different lipsticks in my handbag. 

I've trimmed it down to just these things here: 

Complexion
NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in CustardWhat I wish were the last few squeezes of my MAC Face & Body in C3Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Dim LightNARS Matte Multiple in ExumasEyes
Hourglass Arch Brow Sculpting Pencil in Dark BrunetteMAC Paint Pot in PainterlyClinique Chubby Stick for Eyes in Ample Amber
NARS Larger Than Life Long Wear Eyeliner in Via Venetto
Eyeko Eye Do MascaraLipsClarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector in 05 (not pictured)

The best part of this edit is that I only really require two brushes: The Real Techniques Multi Task Blush to blend the hell out of the Matte Multiple and a smaller powder brush for lightly dusting on powder all over. Everything else can be applied or blended with fingers, perfect for the moody / lazy girl this winter. 

How has winter been treating you? When was the last time you edited your daily makeup bag? And while I have your attention, can you please recommend / tell me your favorite mascara?
