Travel Essentials: What's Inside My Makeup Bag! [Summer Edition]
Holiday is officially started (especially
for us, students)!!! Any travelling plan? I have one! Thank God, Mom and
everyone, I’m going to go to Hong Kong for this holiday! Disneyland and Macau,
woo-hoo!!! ♥
And being a makeup junkie, everybody in da
house has known one thing since my last *ahem* trip only to the hotel, and it
was still in the town, and I brought like everything in my vanity case, and moved
them all to the hotel’s vanity desk. They were thinking “WTF?” for I only was
doing the makeup for two persons. Kay. I just cannot choose what to bring and
what not to la, I love them all and family’s not going to be left behind *get
slapped*
Yet, lucky me not to lose any of them there ~(‘◊’)~ So for this
trip, I had already been warned a thousand times, not to bring contact lenses
and makeup. Any of them, but only one lipstick and one compact powder. How
could they do this to meeeeeeeeeeeee~~
Not repeating my mistake anymore! And I don’t
want you to have the same old mistake like what I once had. Nope. You don’t
want your most precious gem to be left in some hotel…overseas, right? So today I
will show what’s inside my travelling makeup bag, as for you to consider what
to bring, and what not! Summer edition, of course ☼
(Nope.
Not gonna only bring one compact powder and lipstick. Not
only that, so keep reading please pleaseeeeeeee? Friendly reminder, I will be
super super talkative in this post. Please read til the end of it, because
trust me it’s all informative!!)
***
Face
1.
Make Up For Ever PRO Finish Multi-Use Powder Foundation
You don’t want to clog your pores, have a breakout, and melt
the foundation down on your holiday right? So stay away from all of your
liquid, cream, stick foundation—grab the
powder one! This definitely is my current Holy Grail powder foundation. It
feels lightweight yet has buildable coverage, it also doesn’t clog pores! It stays
all day and doesn’t transfer. This works both as a base and as a setting
powder, touch-up product…everything I would need in my purse, all day and all night.
2.
theBalm Hot Mama Blush
Picking what blush to bring was the hardest part! (the
second was choosing lipsticks, believe me.) This blush has the right amount of
gold sheen, and the color is kinda peachy pink which will make your face look
radiant just in second yet work both for day and night occasion. Very natural
on skin, and… C’mon, you do want to have a glowy skin while walking in the
park, right!
3.
L.A. Girl PRO Conceal
Nope, not again the cream concealer. It will crease anyway,
or else it will melt down. Choose concealer with lightweight formula like this
one! This one blends like dream, works on both under the eyes to hide those
puffy, panda eyes and also on your blemishes. Hello, flawless!
4.
theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer
Since what we bring earlier was a powder foundation which
sometimes could look flat (erhm, MUFE Pro Finish actually doesn’t. It has the
most natural finish, ever.) so I choose to bring this
luminizer along! Highlights your cupid bow, high point of your face, and on the
nose bridge. Those glowy skin? Hohoho, we can fake it!
5.
Coastal Scents Powder Buffer (from 22 pcs Brush Set.)
I actually use this to apply my powder foundation, because
it gives a natural, airbrushed look and could be use to blend everything away
on your face. Buff here, buff there!
6.
Coastal Scents Small Angled Blush (from 22 pcs Brush Set.)
This is to apply your favorite blush! Why angled blush
brush? If you can’t live without the contour product (while me cannot use one…)
and you eager to bring it along, this will work both for the blush and the
contour product. Saving space! (p.s: I use
this also to apply my highlighter, by pressing it side by side to make the
surface flatter.)
Eyes
1.
NYX Love in Paris
Palette #Je Ne Sais Quoi
Bring any of your
small palettes along! I bring this one because it (again,) has neutral colors
in it. Be sure to bring the one with few matte shades also because you will
never know when you will need one. Sssst, there’s one brown color in this
palette that I could use to fill in my eyebrows, what a saving place!
2.
Benefit They’re
Real! Mascara
This is not my
oh-so-favorite mascara, but well at least it’s smudgeproof, waterproof, and a
travel size. Remember you will not have much time to wipe away the black stains
of smudging mascara there or just to check around, so waterproof and
smudgeproof, indeed!
3.
Holika Holika
Jewel Light Waterproof Liner #09 Gold
We want something
to pop our eyes instantly! Wearing this on your tearduct, or just along the
lower lashline will pop out your eyes easily. Beside, it’s summer so you can
also wear it on your upper lash line for the summer pop. Woo!
4.
Coastal Scents
Small Angled Liner Brush (from 22 pcs Brush Set.)
I use this to line
my waterline, do some tightlining on the upper lash line using the gel liner I bring
along and to fill my eyebrows with shadow from the NYX palette earlier.
5.
Coastal Scents Pro
Blending Fluff
Contour nose,
apply concealer and blend it in, clean-blending eye shadow or color-blending,
apply cream shadow…this brush does it all. PERFECTLY.
6.
Urban Decay Primer
Potion #Sin
Annoying oily lid,
anyone? Prime your eyes before start wearing eye shadow for a longer staying
power and greater color payoff. Why not the original one? Because this amazing product
also works as quick-to-go eye brightener as it has the shimmery champagne
color. Yay!
7.
Essence Gel Liner
#Midnight in Paris
Why gel liner? Because
it works both on the upper lashes, tightlining in between your lashes, yet it
works beautifully on the lower waterline for a quick smokey look! Bringing this
could really be a pain in the head (because of its heavy, thick glass jar), but
believe me you won’t have much time waiting liquid liner to dry and wiping away
the smudges pencil liner gives. Make sure to bring waterproof and smudgeproof
one!
8.
LORAC Single Eye
Shadow #Serenity
I cannot leave
this one at home. Seriously. This eye shadow has that buttery texture and no
fall out! This is my no-brainer eye shadow, I would apply this all over my
eyelid and still cannot look bad with it. This blends like dream too even if you’re
using your fingers. LORAC, all my heart is for you only.
9.
Eyelid Tape
I love having
double lids because it’s easier to apply eyeliner on, and well sometimes my
lids can turn back into monolid, that’s why this product cannot be left!
Lips
1.
Revlon Super
Lustrous Lipstick #117 Almost Nude
Nude lipstick is
essentials. Bring one that would not make you look sick to wear it with simple
eye makeup, yet it’s calm enough to be worn along with smokey eyes.
2.
Maybelline Color
Sensational Lipstick #515 Coral Crush
This is summer,
babeeeeee! Coral lipstick cannot go wrong, this lipstick brings radiance and
brightens up my face just in second! A great color to be mix, also!
3.
NYX Soft Matte Lip
Cream #Antwerp
Lack of blush
color? Remember, your lips products can also be used on your cheek as long as….they
have matte finish. Blush and lip color all in oneeee~
4.
L’Oreal Miss Candy
Glam Shine #707 Miss Raspberry
Need some gloss to
a plumped lips? Gloss cannot be wrong on summer time, also! Juicy lips ahead!
5.
Burt’s Bees
Classic Beeswax Lip Balm
Never forget to
wear the lip balm underneath. Yup, you don’t want those cracked lips in this
hot, humid summer.
6.
Random Samples
Samples cannot go
wrong! Saving more space, but bringing more value.
Phew! Finally this
long post is done. Hah. Still, I have some tips to share with you below, in this cutey picture I just made.

Aq pingin bawa lipstick maakk.. tpi bingung pol warna apa jek an.. >.<" Fuuuuu...
ReplyDeletecepet tentukannnn~~ :D
Deletenyx antwerp for the cheeks? never even thought of it, YOU'RE SUCH A GENIUS!!
ReplyDeleteBlog about brushes and your favorite ones after you get back home, pwetty please? :3
yup! try it steph! but remember, be light-handed stipp. i think one drop of the lip cream is enough for both cheeks! blend that away quickly, and you can always build the color up. (it's better than to calm the color down, honestly...)
Deletei will! XD
it's "still", not "stipp" by the way. oh, typo me!
DeleteDefinitely will! Thanksss for the tips :*
DeleteI can never narrow down my options when it comes to packing, I always bring lots of stuffs..
ReplyDeleteBut for the lips, I always bring less than four including a lip balm, I just pick a neutral everyday color and one party color for some nights I might not remember :P
http://alexandragunawan.blogspot.com
neither can I! omg, i should've cut down the amount of the lip products more. gee. picking all the stuffs above? took me 3 days to think over and over again, what to bring and what not to...
Deletenice topic, but i think it's still a lot of stuff. you should bring less lip product, one lip balm and one lip color are enough. and for the eye, i never put on any eye shadow, only eyeliner on my lash line and mascara. because the simplest makeup i wear, the longer time to spend on that day ^^
ReplyDeletewell, that's just my opinion ^^
http://raranran.blogspot.com
thank you ! yep, i indeed still need to cut down few items. but after thinking it over and over again...i just cannot choose. phew! boo me, eh?
Deletethanks for the opinion, i rly appreciate it! indeed, less is more darls <3
