What's in my Makeup Bag : November 2016

Sometimes when getting ready in the morning to go to work and are putting a full face of makeup I normally want to be able to use products for more then just one thing in my makeup routine. The last past month these are the products I have been using on a daily and are currently in my makeup bag.

Primer

 Elizabeth Arden Matte Moisture Lotion – This lotion I use as a primer because it is like a gel formula and when using this product I do not really need to use a primer on top of it because this lotion helps smooth the skin. To me this is a 2 in 1 product.

Foundation

Bare Mineral Bareskin in the shade 04 Bare Ivory- This foundation is very light weight but also great for everyday since it has SPF 20. It leaves my skin looking natural and doesn’t make my skin look like I have a pile of makeup on.

Concealer

Mac Select Moisture Cover in the shade NC20-  This is a great light weight concealer that brightens up my under eye but also does not cake up.

ELF Stick Concealer in the shade Ivory- This is a peachy corrector concealer. I use this concealer to cancel out my veins on my eye lids. I can also use this concealer to hide dark circles if I end up having any.

Face Powders

BH Cosmetics Studio Pro Matte Finish Pressed Powder in the shade 230- This product reminds me of Mac Studio Fix Powder. I use this powder all over the face to set my foundation. I also use thispowder to set my eye primer.

Rimmel London Stay Matte Powder in the shade 001 Transparent- This powder is great to set all over the face when I do not want to add extra color. I also use this powder to set my undereye area after I have applied concealer. The last way I use this powder is to touch up through out the day after using blotting sheets to control the oily parts on my face but also keep my face from looking super shiny.

 Eye Brows

Wet and Wild coloricon Eye Brow Pencil in the shade 623A Brunettes Do It Better – I use this brow pencil to fill in my brows before I set them with powder.

Ardell Brow Defining Kit- I use this brow kit to set my brows after using the brow pencil. I also use the taupe shade in the kit to contour with. The taupe shade can be compared to the Nyx Taupe blush which is a great gray shade to contour the hallow of the checks with. The last reason I use this kit for is eye shadows. These are great neutral shades to make many eye looks.

High Lighter

Wet n Wild Coloricon Bronzer in the shade 743A Reserve Your Cabana- This product is marketed as a bronzer but it is really a highlighter. It gives the most natural looking glow. I can also spray my brush if I want the wet looking effect. I also use this shade as an eye shadow and to high light the brow bone. This powder can also be used to set my concealer under the eye due to the fact that the powder is close to my skin tone.

Blush

Wet n Wild Coloricon Blush in the shade 833E Mellow Wine- This is a great fall color for the checks. I also use this shade as a pop of color if I want to add it to any eye look.

Lip Products

The only lip liner I have been caring around is a lip liner from Wet n Wild in a berry shade. The 2 lipsticks I have been using is the NYC Get It All Lip Color in the shade 400 Extraordi Berry and the other lipstick is from Rimmel London in the shade 510 Best of The Best which is a red shade.  The last lip products I have been carrying around in my daily makeup bag are glosses. The first gloss is from ELF in the shade 2121 Strawberry and the next gloss is from Milani called Brilliant Shine Lip Gloss in the shade 06 Ravish Raspberry.

Mascara

The mascara I have been using all month is the Tarte Lights, Camera Lashes!

Setting Spray

The setting spray I have been using all month which is a recent purchase is the Wet n Wild setting spray.

Tools

I use a Revlon lash curler. I also carry 3 makeup brushes which are a crease brush, concealer brush and a powder brush. I carry a pencil sharpener which is a must and right not I use a sharpener from Sephora. The last tool I use is blotting sheets and the current blotting sheets I am using are from elf.
