What's in my Bag!

Hello my wee dolls!

How are we all? I love watching what's in my bag youtube videos so thought it would be a good idea to do for a blog post! So here we go....

This is my bag I use everyday. It's a Ted Baker tote I got for my birthday and I am so in love with it! It has one main compartment and a smaller compartment on the inside wall of the bag. It holds so much stuff but I try to keep what I carry around with me to a minimum as it gets beyond a joke at the amount of rubbish that I accumulate in my bag given the chance!

Now this is just an overview of everything that is currently in my bag. Starting at the top left I have: a book by Neal Shusterman called 'Unwind'; my Filofax; a recent CIBSE Engineering journal; a bottle of water; my makeup bag; hair ties; a back combing brush; my business cards; my Radley purse; Soap & Glory hand food; B&BW pumpkin cupcake hand sanitiser; paracetamol; a hair grip; lip products; Chanel nail varnish; a hair band and Next perfume.

Here's a close up of the lip products etc in my bag: we have a Nivea Lip butter in raspberry rose, Model Co lipgloss in berry pink, Rimmel lipstick in 117 Glam, Clinique lipstick in rosette, Babylips in pink punch, MAC lipstick in overtime, Collection 2000 lipstick in plum perfection and Chanel's nail colour in 543 Frisson.

Another little close up : )

Now for a little look inside my makeup bag! This is the make-up bag I keep in my bag at all times as I use most of the products on a day to day basis. The make up bag is by MAC and was from their 2011/12 holiday collection. Below the makeup bag we have: NARS eyeshadow duo in hula hula; Chanel eyeshadow duo in misty soft; Rimmel lip liner in wine; Rimmel lip liner in east end snob; MAC lip liner in boldly bare; MACs prep & prime in radiant rose; Garneier's concealer; Collection 2000's big fake ultimate mascara in ultra black; Rimmel liquid liner in 100% black; Benefit's speed brow; Clinique's bottom lash mascara; Clinique compact blush brush; Benefit's girl meets pearl; Palmer's cocoa butter lip balm; MAC eyeshadow in cork (I use it for my brows when I'm not using my Naked palette; a hair band and a mac powder sponge/puff thingy!

Here's a close up of the eyeshadow duos. The NARS duo consists of a pale rosey pink and a lovely gold, both loaded with shimmer! And the Chanel is my go to colours for fall as mentioned in my autumn day post.

I thought it would be fun to tag some of my favourite bloggers to do this post too! The lovely girlies I tag to do the 'Whats in my bag' post are as follows:

An Autumn Day...

I always like to change my makeup look, especially when the seasons change. I prefer light colours in the summer and darker colours in the winter for a more dramatic look. Although in the photo below I don't actually have a dark lip, I would like to start sporting one for the fall ;)

 

 

 

My go to products are as follows:

Urban Decay's Naked Palette - I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this palette. I honestly use it everyday. I like to use the shade 'buck' to fill in my brows, and 'virgin' as a highlighter.

 

This foundation is brilliant for my skin. I tend to have a slightly paler complexion in the winter time so I like to stick to light shades like 'Ivory'.

 

I love Clinique lipsticks. I actually got the one I use frequently as a freebie because I bought 2 products. I love the colour 'Rosette', and it looks that extra bit gorgeous with a slick of Model Co lipgloss in 'Berry Pink' on top!

 

I have only recently stopped using this product as my eyeliner. I have used it in the photo at the beginning of this post, but I now find that I prefer to use the dark colours from my urban decay palette as eyeliner for my top eyelids because I find it better to apply.

 

This mascara doesn't need justification. Its brilliant. Get it.

 

I got this Chanel duo for my birthday and adore the colours. The duo is in 'misty soft' and is a lovely combination of a lilac shade and a plum colour...beautiful! I use the lighter lilac shade on my lid and the plum shade in the crease of my eyelid and blend together.

 

What is your go to makeup look for the fall? Let me know in the comments below : )
