What’s in My Makeup Pouch?

What’s in My Makeup Pouch? (Makeup On The Go)

By Linda

Hi everyone,

Today I will be talking about the makeup products I carry everyday along with me. Yes every day!!!!!. As I only prefer to allot 5 mins for a simple and natural makeup. In case of parties / events or other functions obviously the products would be different and it won’t be relevant to today’s post.

As I’m always on a run , be it for work/ meeting with friends, in which case I mostly do my makeup either in my car while I’m commuting or head straight to a decent ladies common room ..yeah that kind of a crazy person I am. Rather than digging into my bag for each product or forgetting it at home I prefer carrying these few products in a pouch, where ever I go. Let’s admit one thing that makeup last for at least 4-5 hours depending on the weather conditions or your skin type. It’s always better to carry this pouch for retouches. And I don’t want load my bag with all unwanted makeup that I don’t use daily.

I did mention it’s a makeup pouch , since a pouch can carry minimal but most important things that serves our purpose. Secondly it’s light weight and travel friendly.

So let’s get to the point and find out what’s in my pouch

1. Mac Studio Fix Foundation plus Powder [Shade: NC 41]

This is a highly recommended product. Firstly it functions as a foundation plus powder. Secondly within the container it has a sponge for easy application of the product and a mirror build in (you need not carry an extra mirror).So now you can imagine how multipurpose this product is . I will be writing a detailed review of this product soon. Keep watching!!!

2. Maybelline Dream Sun Triple Bronzing powder [Shade: 02 Brune]

This is another all-time favorite product of mine. The detailed review of this product is HERE. As I mentioned in the review this a multipurpose product. It can be used as Bronzer, for contouring and highlighting ,and at times as a blush as well. Trust me these 3 shades can do wonders on your skin.

3. A Blush by Rimmel London [Shade 190 Coral]

What I like about this blush it gives you a flushed natural look, as it has tiny amount of shimmer. Also it is light weight and smaller in size.

4. Bourjois Kohl & Contour Eye Pencil (Review HERE)

A water proof and smudge proof eye pencil is all you need. And a sharpner along with it is an add on.

5. Perfume vial (Milano by PRADA)

This vial always comes handy to revive the freshness of your fragrance you already applied. All you need is to invert the vial on your finger tip and dab it behind your ears and wrist, and then you are are all set to go.

6. Lipstick /Lip balm

It’s always advisable to carry a lipstick of a neutral shade (browns) and cool toned (shades of pink and mauve) lipstick of your choice. I carry a neutral lipstick from Mac Shade Whirl which is reviewed HERE

7. Bourjois Volume Glamour MAX definition Mascara

Any look is incomplete without a mascara. The wand has fine and short bristles that coats your eyelashes giving a voluminous look.

8. Essence Eye Pencil & Eyeshadow [Shade 05 Cute Copper]

This is a neutral bronze pencil eye shadow, creamy formula, easy to apply. You don’t even need a brush. Easy to blend with your fingertips.

I carry all my products in a light and small-medium size pouch I picked from H & M.This is a zipper pouch in a metallic color. Easy to carry where ever you go and fits into any size of bags.

Believe me all these items easily fits into a small pouch only try to select items that are multipurpose, light weight and travel friendly.

Hope you enjoyed reading this post…

Editor’s Note: Ya I guess these things are enough, I would just add an eyebrow pencil and highlighter for me 😀
