What's in My Makeup Bag

I don't know if I've done one of these but if I have here is an updated version :)
So I'll start with my organization of makeup because this is like a three step process. First, I have drawer organizers with drawers of foundations, lipsticks, eyeshadows, concealers, etc.  (I believe I have a past post about that). These are the things I will switch out and into my makeup bag depending on the season, my mood, the occasion. And then I have a "to-go" bag that I will pull to take with me on the go for everyday. There will be a follow up "What's in My 'to-go' Makeup Bag" at some point.
I hope that wasn't confusing! But today you'll be seeing the bag that sits on my counter with my most used items right this minute.

Okay! So now I'll just list what's in there kind of in order pictured from left to right- 

Bare Minerals Touch Up Veil in Medium 

Sonia Nashik Randiant + Tinted Moisturizer in Linen 

ELF Powder Brush 

Beauty Blender Sponge 

Paula's Choice Clear Ultra-Light Daily Mattifying Fluid 

Urban Decay Perversion Mascara 

Make Up For Ever Smoky Extravagant Mascara 

City Color Be Matte Lipstick in M7 Cappuccino 

Instant Age Rewind Dark Circle Eraser in 20 Light Pale 

NYC Sun 'n' Bronze Bronzing Powder in 706 

Hamptons Radiance  

Clinique Moisturizing Gel

Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer in Medium/Deep

Crown Brush C476 Crease/Shadow Brush 

Senna Mineral Eyes Shadow Trio in Cocoa Nudes (I use one of the colors here for my brows) 

Bare Minerals 5 in 1 BB Advanced Cream Eyeshadow (Don't know the color. I recieved it in an Ipsy bag. I use it as a eye lid primer)

Crown Brush Powder Brush 

Revlon Photoready Eyeshadow in Impressionist 

Clinique Pore Refining Solution 

MAC Pro Longwear Concealer in NW20

These are the things I reach for most often when doing full makeup so I leave the bag on the counter. Again, I take specific things out when I'm on the go. If you have any questions about anything please leave a comment. 

Thank you for reading,

Current Makeup Collection + Storage!

Hello Friends!

I recently bought a couple organizers and wanted to post my current makeup collection and storage.

I don't have too much but I love reading/ seeing these kinds of things because it gives me ideas so I thought I'd post mine! 

I store all of my makeup related items and get ready every morning in my bathroom. Above is a picture of my makeup and brushes on my bathroom counter. 

I store my Scentsy with current wax melt Cranberry Pear from the new Febreze Home Collection line, two storage containers, the 100 piece eyeshadow palette from ELF and the 21 piece eyeshadow palette in Brown/ Taupe from Forever 21, and two brush holders I created myself using the 3 wick candle jars from Bath and Body Works and scrapbook paper (you can see in a past blog post titled "DIY Weekend") containing face and eye brushes. 

Below are more detailed pictures of everything on my counter and in my organizers.

On my counter!

The Nature's Haven Mid Size Scensty Warmer.
Not sure if they still have this warmer. I recieved it as a gift a couple of years ago.
The wax melt is the Cranberry Pear scent from the Fabreze Home collection.
I bought the melts at Walmart.

The ELF 100 piece palette and the Forever 21 21 piece palette in Brown/ Taupe.
I use both of these palettes regularly and they both are amazing quality with great color payoff.

Left: Face Brushes
Right: Eye Brushes
Still need little marbles or something to put at the bottom
to make the brushes stand up nice!

And that's about it for the counter!

Everything behind and off to the right are my leave-in conditioners and face lotions and toners. If you'd like a detailed blog post about those things please ask! :)
