What's in My Makeup Bag

Happy Hump Day ladies! I hope you all have been having a great week. As an avid viewer of many, many blogs and YouTube videos, I have always found myself loving posts that allow us to take a peek inside someones life, so to speak. Closet tours, home decorating ideas, makeup collections, etc. are all things I love seeing. Hey, its fun to see what people have and how they organize it right? Maybe it's because I think we are all a little nosey. ;) But there isn't much wrong with that. Today I thought I would share with you what I typically carry in my makeup bag when I travel on the weekends. I change it up depending on what new products I might have purchased and what I'm loving, but for the most part, items from these categories come with me when I am on the go! 

A fun print makeup bag to store it all! Milly for Clinque (was a freebie with a purchase)

Brushes are essential.Uses: (L-R) Foundation, under-eye concealer, setting powder,blush, blush/highlighter, bronzer, eye shading, eye blending

A primer and a couple options of foundation.I like to carry a more full coverage option with me as well asa more natural coverage option.(TIP: Soft, plastic bottles of foundation, as opposed to glass, are great for travel.)

Full & medium coverage under-eye concealeroptions and blemish concealer...just in case!

Setting powder, bronzer, and two choices of blush

Eyeshadow palettes are best when traveling!I also always have Stila's Kitten e/s with me. (FAVE status)

A favorite mascara, liquid eyeliner, & brow essentials

ChapStick is a must. I always carry multiple lip colors as well. 

And of course, as most women do, I carry a few hair ties and bobbypins in my makeup case as well.
So theres what I carry in my makeup bag on a typical weekend or if I am traveling. I try not to overload my case with unnecessary or bulky items. These things fit just perfectly into the size of makeup bag I have. The things that most often get switched out are foundation, eyeshadow and blush due to season or occasion. (And because my collection continues to grow and I need to use everything I have ;)
Look for my "What's in my Traincase" next week!
