What's in my makeup bag?
What's in my makeup bag? Last month, I did a "what's in my bag?" post inspired by Elsie, but I've decided to do my makeup bag this month. Plus, I've been receiving a lot of emails with questions that I'm going to try and start answering now that I have a month off of school! As for makeup. I'm pretty basic, but I thought I'd share some of my favorite makeup items that I can't live without (all pretty cheap too!)
1. Cover Girl Smoothers Concealer in Neutralizer - I use this to cover up the pesky red spots. I have a red dot under my right eye that has been there for forever that this stuff easily covers it up. I also love it for under eyes. Price $6.25
2. Clinique Super Balanced Foundation in Breeze - I love this stuff. I bought it years ago for a friend's wedding and have never stopped getting it since. It's really smooth. My skin tone is really fair and this foundation matches my skin tone perfectly. Price $21.00
3. Cover Girl Fragrance Free Pressed Powder in Classic Ivory - My skin is more dry compared to oily, but sometimes I get the shiny spots - especially in summer and this helps with covering that up. Price $6.00
4. Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion - I love this stuff. It's even a Glamour Glammie's Winner. I have super dry skin, especially living in a cold wintry state. This is perfect for helping with that and doesn't make your face feel oily. Price $24.00
5. Maybelline Line Stiletto Ultimate Precision Liquid Eyeliner in Blackest Black - I adore this stuff. I always used to be jealous of girls who could pull off liquid eyeliner, but could never do it myself without making a giant mess and a squiggle line on my eye. This is really easy to use and I love the way it turns out. If I were to only have 1 make up product, it would be this. Price $6.00
6. Maybelline Lash Stiletto Ultimate Length Mascara in Very Black - I just recently bought this and I really like the way it makes my lashes look, but when it dries it is super clingy and my eyelashes stick together a lot. Also when I get out of the shower, I still have the mascara under my eyes and it's impossible to remove. I think next time I'll try something different. Price $7.50
7. Cover Girl Classic Color Blush in Rose Silk - I've been buying this for forever. When I was in high school, it was super cool to have really pink eyeshadow and I wore this as blush (and as eye shadow!) I love the color it gives. More of a pink tone, rather than a deep tone. Price $5.50
8. And last but not least, my favorite, must have, Burt's Bee's. I only love the classic recipe - any of the other pomegrante flavors or anything else really gross me out, but if you get the classic recipe, it's perfect. I'm in love with it. My lips get super chapped and this is a lifesaver. Price $3.00
There you go for those of you who had questions! Keep the emails coming.. they mean the world and I'm super happy to answer any questions! My inbox has also been overloaded with "weight loss" questions, so I'm going to address that topic next. Stay tuned! <3
