Makeup Bag Confessional. What's In My Makeup Bag? #makeup #beauty

I am always super interested in those “What’s In My Bag?”, “What’s In My Shower?” and so on type of posts. I don’t know what it is, I guess just getting a sneak peak into what products someone uses on a daily basis is super intriguing to me. When I was brainstorming post ideas I though this little Makeup Bag Confessional would be a fun way to show y’all the products that I keep in my (three) makeup bag and reach for daily. Some of it are things that I have had a long term relationship with and repurchase all the time, some is new that I am trying out and some are just must haves for any makeup bag and the brand could be interchangeable. So here we go, in no particular order.

Makeup Bag Confessional

Something that is brand new to me that I have only tried a few times but have been quite happy with is the Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous foundation, it goes on great and gives you a pretty good coverage. Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer is a long time favorite and something that I always have on hand to give me a nice contour. A favorite liner for a nice cat eye look is this one from Ardency Inn. I don’t think I could live without my 2-Step Mascara from Covergirl, volume for days! If you need to brighten up your inner corner or waterline then you need this nude pencil from Rimmel, for sure. A favorite of mine that I have mentioned in my How To Contour posts is definitely the Maybelline Dream Lumi concealer in ‘Radiance’ it’s perfection in a bottle.

Makeup Bag Confessional

If you are currently living life without at least one Maybelline Color Tattoo in your stash you are seriously missing out, I have an obsession with the neutral shades. They make for the perfect primer or shadow. Lining my waterline with the L’Oreal Infallible Eye Liner is a must for me. As far as concealers go, I am obsessed with these two Maybelline products, the coverstick and the age rewind never steer me wrong! Wanting a little bit of dimension and the false lash look, grab this L’Oreal Butterfly Mascara and you won’t be disappointed! Another great product for a good highlight is the L’Oreal Magic Lumi concealer stick!

Makeup Bag Confessional

Go ahead and grab Tarte’s Park Avenue Princess bronzer & feel free to thank me later! My pores tend to look crazy large so one of the products I use to combat that is Too Faced Primed & Poreless and I find that it really gives me a smooth canvas to work with, yes I called my face a canvas… go with it. I use a knock off version of Benefit’s High Beam that someone sent me from the UK but it’s pretty much a perfect dupe and I love it. Another mascara that I absolutely could not live without is They’re Real from Benefit, I am a mascara maniac and use like three at once.

Makeup Bag Confessional

If you want to know my favorite way to highlight and contour (read this post) and buy these Maybelline Fit Me sticks and you will be forever changed! Another mascara must? (told you, I am a maniac) is Too Faced Better Than Sex (for those of you wondering, yes) is the bomb dot com. Watt’s Up from Benefit is the perfect highlighter for a natural makeup look, I usually set it with Mary Loumanizer and that’s all on top of one of my favorite-in-the-history-of-ever primers which is Magic Lumi from L’Oreal.

Makeup Bag Confessional

An awesome translucent powder to just set an entire look in place is the NYC Smooth Skin, it’s messy but I am in love and it lasts forever. I’m a huge lippies fan and I own probably thirty of the Revlon crayon like lip balms. If you’re not using a color tattoo as an eyeshadow primer, I love using Shadow Insurance from Too Faced to keep everything in place. Another powder highlighter that I am obsessed with (and profess my love for here) is Candlelight Glow from Too Faced, it’s amazing.

Makeup Bag Confessional

More Revlon lippies, of course. My Urban Decay Naked3 palette is my holy grail of eyeshadows (click here for swatches) and I use it daily. Another holy grail, for me, is the Nars blush in SuperOrgasm I just love the sparkle. I also love me some blush from MAC and that one is a limited edition in petal powder and I have a serious obsession with layering that with the Maybelline Master Hi-Lights.  Maybelline Baby Skin is a super amazing product (see a review here) that you can use in combination with a primer and I use it as a sort of ‘spot treatment’ when my pores are looking absurdly large. I also love me some Color Whisper lipstick shades.

Makeup Bag Confessional

I randomnly found this NYC BB Creme and I have fallen completely in love with it, I use a beauty blender to apply and it gives me perfect coverage. The happy booster blush from Physician’s Formula has been a long time favorite for me, which leads me to another favorite the Sugar lip balm from Fresh is amazing.

“The black and white photo challenge started as “The black and white photo challenge started as a way for women to raise their voice. To stand in solidarity with the women we have lost.

In 2019, Turkey had nearly 500 RECORDED femicides. ⁣

The Global Burden of Armed Violence 2014 database shows that between 2007 and 2012, on average, 60,000 women were killed violently around the world. ⁣

A total of 87,000 women were intentionally killed in 2017. More than half of them (58 per cent) ̶ 50,000 ̶ were killed by intimate partners or family members, meaning that 137 women across the world are killed by a member of their own family every day. More than a third (30,000) of the women intentionally killed in 2017 were killed by their current or former intimate partner ̶ someone they would normally expect to trust.⁣

1️⃣ My hair has been over 50 different colors. Some of them all at the same time. It’s naturally blonde though⠀⁣

2️⃣ I went to an all girls catholic high school and was asked not to take Spanish 3 because I talked too much 🤣⠀⁣
⠀⁣
3️⃣ I have two cats, a dog, and a husband that I’ve been with since I was 16 years old⠀⁣
⠀⁣
4️⃣ I’m a double ♊️ which means I’m talkative, fiercely loyal and endlessly curious. Paired with being an enneagram 8 and it probably also means I’m a little bit psycho 🤣⠀⁣

🔟 Creating this community has been one of my favorite things about life. What will you find here?! Easy beauty tips and tutorials, attainable fashion, endless Amazon finds, but also the UNCOMFORTABLE stuff: pap smears, depression, anxiety, the effects my husbands addiction had on our marriage, eating disorders, struggles with fertility, body acceptance, and being comfortable in your own skin. I try to keep it as real as humanly possible. Being so vulnerable all of the time isn’t the easiest thing but if it helps just one person feel less alone, I’m good! ⠀⁣

Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thin Loving an addict is one of if not the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. ⁣
⁣
We’re about two hit two years since Jim entered rehab and I’m forever proud of the changes he made and the man he has become⁣
⁣
For the person reading this who loves an addict. It’s changed you, I know. It made you a little harder to reach. It made getting out a bed a little rough. It’s isolated you from groups of friends. Your hearts a little more closed off then it once was. Your trust is a little bit broken. You’ve felt more alone then you ever have. You’ve felt judged. You’ve felt betrayed. You’ve felt at fault.⁣
⁣
Whether you’re past it or still in the trenches. I want you to know some things. ⁣
⁣
I need you to know that it’s not your fault. I need you to know that you could not have done anything differently. I need you to know that you can’t cure it. You didn’t cause it. And you can’t control it. ⁣
⁣
Most of all I need you to know that it gets better. I need you to know that it’s ok to feel happiness again. It’s ok to put yourself first. It’s ok to take care of your. ⁣
⁣
And you’re not alone. ⁣
⁣
I promise you that there’s a light on this side of the tunnel just waiting for you to walk through. And that light doesn’t mean it’s over, it’s just there to guide you. Because every day could be a battle. ⁣
⁣
I stayed for the battle. But that’s not the only way. If you need to leave that’s okay too. Either way. You have to get to that light. ⁣
⁣
Don’t be afraid to reach out for help. Go to a meeting yourself. Grab a book (Co-Dependent No More, was helpful for me) listen to a podcast. Get yourself a village. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF⁣
