What's In My Make-Up Bag (On-The-Go Edition)

what's in my make-up bag
First things first, check out my make-up bag. It's from Superdry, and I'm pretty much in love. Isn't it cute?! It's girly and kawaii, without being too saccarine, if that makes sense? The combination of the hot neon red color (MY FAVOURITE COLOUR!!), love-heart detail, and the Manga/Anime inspired design with the Japanese print on it makes it absolutely perfect in my eyes. If my personality could ever be encapsulated in a make-up bag, it'd be this one right here. It's very tiny and doesn't hold much, so this post is the highly edited version of stuff I carry around!
Okay, so, where to start? For foundation, I love the Rimmel Match Perfection, in Light Porcelain. I always have my trusty Collection concealer with me for my dark circles, which are considerable. At the moment I only have two brushes in this bag; my buffing brush from Real Techniques, and also their duo fiber face brush, that I use for both powder and blush. I am ever-faithful to Mac's Ruby Woo, and like to keep a lip scrub handy as well, as it's really nice to use after you've been wearing matte lipstick all day! This one from Lush is delicious and I'd say I eat it rather than apply it. 
For powder, I've been using the Sleek Pink Lemonade palette loads, and a little single I got from Benefit a long time ago, called Pinch Me I'm Dreaming; it's the most gorgeous, matte pastel pink that looks amazing on pale skin. I think they've discontinued it, which is real shame. If I'm on the go I never usually carry eye make-up with me - too damn fiddly. But I do take a mascara just in case, and most of the time it's this one from Maybelline. Sometimes I also have a random matte brown eyeshadow for my brows, and my latest lip-balm.
And that's pretty much it! What do you carry around with you when you're on the go?
