My small but mighty makeup bag!

A lot of you girls are in awe by how much makeup I schlep around with me on your wedding days. I come prepared ladies and it is all just for you! Who knows when you'll actually need that turquoise pigment and neon pink lipstick!? You wanna know what I have in my own makeup kit? Voila! Feast your eyes on my daily makeup staples. Short and sweet. Gets me out of the door in 15 minutes flat for a stressful day but can also take me into an evening out (what are those?)
Let's break it down:
Oil of Olay Moisturizer - Non greasy, non clogging, perfection.

Mac Select Coverup in NW 20 - smooth and light. Non cakey.

Urband Decay Primer in Eden. - Use the tiniest of dots for all day staying power.

Mac Mineralize Power in Medium Plus. Use Tarte's Kabuki brush with this. Lightning quick flawless face!

Benefit Browzing in Dark - I'll have another post about shading in your brows but this kit is awesome with both wax and powder.

MAC Eyeshadow - Shroom, Wedge, Brule, Coquette. I love a matte eye, especially for day. Brule for all over evening, use shroom for highlight and shimmer. Wedge is a matte soft brown for depth, and Coquette is a matte light purpley grey for more color.

Mac Mineralize blush - Dainty, Warm Soul. Use Warm Soul, a tawny pink, when you have a tan and you will look like Eva Longoria on a beach day. Use Dainty, a sweet pink, for an innocent flush.

2 eyeshadow brushes - one for all over color and blending. One for strategic eyeshadow placement.

Eyeshadow curler

Clear mascara

Waterproof Maybelline Lash Blast - Eh it's ok. Not my favorite. Still looking for my holy grail of waterproof mascara.

MAC Strobe Cream - Did I leave the best for last? Yes. Yes. Yes. They might as well call this a "Nars blush name you cannot say in front of your mom" in a bottle. It makes you look alive and absolutely fresh. Of course they changed the bottles so now you get half of what you used to for the same price, but a little still goes a long way. Dab and blend onto your cheekbones, brow, under eye area, and above the lip for a whole new you. I'll be having a post on the best highlighters again in town because I am obssessed with them just as I am blush!


be beautiful...be you!
