Every six months I travel back to Kuwait : ) to visit my parents. This time I decided on sharing my travel essentials with you guys. This post is dedicated to the makeup essentials.
My travel makeup bag
is very streamlined, compromising of just basics. These are my absolute
essentials and I manage to get pretty much any look I want with these. Just a
tinge of sparkle and shine is needed to glam it up. Keep reading to know my
favorites .
The bag : I got this soft jean printed compact makeup bag
complimentary with a mascara from Isa Dora . It’s spacious enough to hold all
my products and has tiny pockets inside too .
1.
Cake Powder : Maybelline’s “Clear glow all in
one shine free cake powder” is my go to for a smooth looking even toned face . This comes with an applicator sponge
and is so easy to glide on . It lasts quite long and gives a fresh look . The one I use is in the shade 04 SAND BEIGE
.
2.
Eye Pencil : Urban Decay’s “24/7 Glide on
pencil” . These are so smooth and just as the name suggests they glide on like
butter :P . Long lasting and absolutely smudge proof . I have these in the
shades Muse (Brown) and Perversion( Black) . I generally use perversion to
tight line and muse to line the outer corners of my lower water line . This
helps enhance my eyes and give a fuller lash line look .
1.
To go palette : Sephora’s “Mini to go palette” is a boon and so travel friendly. It has two
neutral ( white , brown) and two intense ( black , grey ) eye shadows , a pink
and a red tinted lip gloss and a peachy
blush . The eye shades are so well pigmented and diverse , the black and grey
when used with a wet brush work as eyeliners . The brown can also be used to
fill in your brows . The white shade works great as a highlighter . The lip glosses are tinted lightly and I
personally love the red one , you can tell by the image :P and the blush is the perfect color for a
summer day look .
4.
Mascara : Isa Dora’s “Lash flash mascara” in 01
Black . Which eye look is complete without a layer of mascara . I am in love with
this product , the wand applies the product evenly and doesn’t clump on the
lashes . I generally apply two coats one with the product and one after wiping
the wand clean to give length .
5.
Lip Gloss : Victoria Secret’s “Beauty Rush
flavoured gloss” is a very lightly tinted , berry flavoured gloss . It stays on
for good two hours (provided you are not
eating ) .
6.
Lipstick : Revlon’s “Matte Balm” in the shade
Sultry . This is my favourite lip shade ,it gives the my lips but better
effect. I swipe this on whenever I step out for an occasion .
7.
Brushes : A always carry a blending brush , a
blush brush and an angle brush . These three brushes work likes magic wands
. My brushes are from Claire’s , I got them long time ago when I was new
to makeup and have to stuck to them ever since . The blending brush also has an angle brush at
its end , I use this to define my crease and blend in dark shades . I use the
angle bush to create an eyeliner effect using eye shadows . The blush brush for
the blush of course .
Let me know which of these you would like to add to your makeup bag , in the comments below:)
Until next time
Polý agape (lots of love) and stay cheerful :) !
