There is a little purple Jon Hart bag that calls my purse it's home. We travel everywhere together and I do not believe that I could live without it. It holds anything and everything I could ever/would ever need and today I wanted to share those essentials with you:
Make up items:
-Laura Mercier Secret Concealer - AKA magic in a pot.
-MAC Studio Fix Powder Foundation - This is an oldie but goodie. I forgot how much I love this powder and recently repurchased it for the sole purpose of keeping it in my purse. It has a mirror and is perfect for powdering on the go!
-Perfume Samples - I don't keep any specific ones in my purse. Just whatever I have gotten as a freebie recently.
-Oil Blotting Sheets - My oily skinned sisters out there know that these are absolutely necessary. These are always with me. I don't have a favorite brand but at the price of $1 you really can't go wrong with these from ELF.
-NYX Mega Shine Lip Gloss in Beige - This is the perfect nude lip color. I love to wear it to work and in "real life"
-Rosebud Salve - I love this lip balm. There is never a time in my life that I have not either had this in my purse or in my apartment. Absolutely necessary.
-Sephora Mirror - There is no shame in fixing your makeup in public. While I am pretty old school when it comes to a lot of things, its 2014 ladies there is no reason to go to the bathroom to "powder your nose"
Non-makeup Items
-Aleve - I am prone to headaches so I always have this on me.
-Pepto Bismol - As you get older your stomach gets worse. The struggle is real.
-Blistex Medicated Lip Balm - When my lips are really really chapped this is the only thing I will use
-Whish Deodrant Swipes - JIC of emergencies.
-Nasonex - I'm allergic to everything on the planet so I don't leave home without this.
I hope this was some what helpful! I know that this seems like an awful lot to be carrying around at one time but what can I say, I'm a bag lady...
What are your necessary products to carry in your makeup bag? Anything I should try?
