What's in my Travel Makeup Bag?

I used to be (truly, I probably still am) such an over-packer. (My family really doesn't travel as much as we did a few years ago for me to really know.) I made an out-of-town visit to a friend last week, I was so proud of myself for getting everything in a tiny suitcase.


Not to mention that, but my makeup in a small bag too; it was only about 3/4 full!  For whatever reason, I had such a hard time leaving makeup items at home.  I've finally realized wearing the same blush and lipstick a few days in a row won't hurt, and I really do not need to tote around a huge eyeshadow palette.


(No, this aren't necessary my top products.  However, quite a few of these are everyday products or travel-friendly equivalent to.)

  • Clean & Clear Morning Glow Eye Brightening Cream
  • ELF Blushing/Bronzing Duo (Dupe for NARS Orgasm and Laguna, I prefer those, for travel purpose, I go with this one.)
  • L'Oreal Telescopic Carbon Black
  • MAC Eyeshadows - Carbon, Espresso, Shroom, & Silver Ring
  • MAC Fluidline Blacktrack
  • MAC Indianwood Paint Pot
  • MAC Select Cover Up Concealer
  • MAC Viva Glam V Lipstick
  • Make Up for Ever Aqua Eyes 0L
  • Model in a Bottle Eyebrow Sealer
  • Origins VitaZing Moisturizer (I wish they made sample sizes!)
  • Revlon Skinlights Face Illuminator (Decant)
  • Urban Decay Potion Primer (Decant)

Makeup brushes were a whole different story; too bad there's not a one-does-all type travel brush...
