My top 5 makeup items on the go
Posted In All About Makeup, Makeup Blog | Posted On 09 16th, 2011
Ok so I understand that not all girls carry around a huge makeup bag at all times-and realistically we don’t even need everything to retouch our make up throughout the day. I will be listing my top 5 makeup items that I must carry with me at all times for touch ups or something quick on the go.
- Foundation or foundation powder. This is handy when I have to touch up my base throughout the day or if I need to apply foundation on the go.
- Blush/bronzer. Carrying a bronzer such as “Neutrogena Healthy skin Blends Natural Radiance Bronzer Sunkissed 30” reduces the need to carry a blush AND a bronzer since this gives you a nice healthy glow without being too dark. This product takes the load off the makeup bag while acting as both a bronzer and a blush.
- Black MAC Pencil Eyeliner. The good thing about pencil liners is that you don’t have to apply eye shadow if you are in a hurry. You can simply line the inside of your eyes and then line the top lash line and blend with your finger tip to give a soft smudged smokey eye effect.
- Mascara. The makeup bag is incomplete without mascara because if you are in a hurry the least you can do is put on some mascara to open up your eyes for a “bright-eyed” look. Also, no look is complete until you apply mascara so always keep this essential item in your makeup bag.
- Tinted Lip Gloss/Lipstick. Every person has their own preference regarding using lip gloss or lipstick so keep which ever you are comfortable with – as long as you don’t leave your lips bare. Now there are even tinted chapsticks or lip protectants so keep your lips covered and looking fresh.
These are my 5 makeup “must haves” that I keep with me no matter what. These are makeup essentials that keep you looking fresh and beautiful throughout the day. So if you do not want to carry a huge makeup case around- make a small makeup pouch with these basic items.
