Travel: What's In My Make Up Bag

  Hello Everyone! 
Finals are finally over and I honestly could not be any happier. They dragged so much this year but really.. my last one was on the 23rd! Crazy late, I know. Anyways, for the holidays, I am currently in Boston and I'm staying with my family for about a week. I thought it would be fun to share the make up I brought with me! I try really hard to minimize how much I bring because I do own a lot of make up and if I could, I would bring it all. But since it is the holidays, I brought a few more items because who doesn't love fake eyelashes and smokey eyes for Christmas?! I hope you enjoy and maybe this can give you some ideas of what to bring next time you're on a vacation or trip! I think I am also going to do a FOTD and OOTD for Christmas day. So excited! 

Brushes: 

All

Face 

Eyes

Face:  Real Techniques Expert Face Brush  Real Techniques Setting Brush  Bare Minerals Full Flawless Face Sonia Kashuk Contour Brush  Models Own Blush Brush 
Eyes:  Soho Blending Brush  Soho Angled Brush  Soho Full All Over Brush  Real Techniques Shading Brush  Sonia Kashuk Blending Brush  Sonia Kashuk Smudge Brush Sonia Kashuk Large Shader Brush  Models Own Angled Brush Models Own Flat Brush 
The Sonia Kashuk and Models Own are travel packs which is really nice because they are short! I definitely brought a lot of eye brushes but I love doing darker smokey looks so I use them all. 
Face:

Face: Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser  L'Oreal Magic Nude Liquid Powder in 320 Natural Beige  Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer in Medium ( On spots) NYX HD Photogenic Concealer in Glow (Under eyes)  Make Up Forever HD Powder Bourjois Bronzing Powder  NYX Blush in Mocha  Stila Convertible Color in Peony  Benefit High Beam  ELF Shimmering Face Whip in Lilac Petal 
I've actually just got the Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser. It was so hard to find but I finally got my hands on it at CVS. It is apparently a dupe for Smashbox Photo Ready Primer. I am really excited to see how it compares. 
Palettes:

MAC and Sleek

MAC

Sleek

Palettes:  MAC Quad In Naked Lunch, Woodwinked, Coppering and Club Sleek I Divine Palette in Storm 
I actually did reviews on both of these in the past. You can find the Sleek one HERE and the Mac one HERE. 
Other Shadows: 

Jumbo Sticks: NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in 608 Cottage Cheese Rimmel Scandaleyes Eye Shadow Stick in 004 Guilty Grey
Cream Shadows:  Maybelline  24 HR Color Tattoo in 30 Pomegranate Punk  Maybelline 24 HR Color Tattoo in 25 Bad to the Bronze
 Powder Shadows:  Sephora Shadow in Black Flame  Sephora Shadow in Marie 
I love using Cottage Cheese as a brow highlight ( although I think Cottage Cheese is a horrible name). Also the 24 HR Color Tattoo shadows look great on their own and they are amazing bases. 
Eyeliners: 

Liquid Liners:  Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner in Intense Black  L'oreal Lineur Intense in Carbon Black 
Pencil Liners:  Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Aubergine  Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Navy Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Lionfish Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Stingray
I am a huge fan of Stila eye liners. They are actually amazing and last all day long. I got the Smudge Sticks in a lovely little set. I did a post about them HERE. 
Mascara:

Mascara:  Benefit They're Real!  Benefit Bad Gal Lash  Maybelline Define a Lash in Very Black 
Benefit's They're Real! is my all time favorite mascara. It is absolutely amazing. It lasts all day, gives amazing length and I always get compliments when I wear it. 
Eyebrows and Another Lash Things: 

Brows:  ELF Eyebrow Kit in Medium  MAC Eyebrows in Spiked  Anastasia Eyebrow Gel in Clear  LISI Brow Perfector ( I only use the Spoolie)
Other Lash Things:  Revlon Eye Lash Curler  Adrell False Lashes in 125 Black 
I am going to use the fake lashes for Christmas Day dinner. I think Adrell makes really good lashes for a drugstore brand.
Lips:

Lipsticks:  Rimmel Moisture Renew in 642 in Nude Delight  Too Faced La Creme in Cinnamon Kiss
Lip Stains:  Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in 10 Beso  Hourglass Stain in Rose 
Lip Gloss:  Benefit Lip Gloss in Inferno NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss in Nude Pink 
Lip Liner:  Rimmel Exaggerate Full Color Liner in 032 Innocent 
Nude Delight and NYX gloss in nude pink look amazing together! It is my "go to" everyday lip look. 

I hope you guys have an amazing Christmas and a great New Years! What are you most excited for this holiday season?
Lots of Love,
