Makeup To Go

- this is a scheduled post while I am on vacation -

Here's a look at what I packed for our 2ish week vacation, makeup wise.

Eyes:

• Coastal Scents 88 Original palette. Gives me a very wide variety of colours. A few with shimmer but mostly matte shades
• Urban Decay eyeliners. These stay put well and have been a favourite of mine. I'll have to find something new now that Urban Decay has been bought out by L'Oreal though.
• MAC fluidline in Glitz & Blitz.  The best cream eyeliner I've tried. Too bad it isn't vegan. This is my favourite for doing a cat eye.
• Buxom mascara by Bare Escentuals. I really like this mascara.
• elf Minerals Eyelid Primer. Love.
• Physician's Formula Eye Boost. Great for applying close to the lashes and I want to see if it thickens them over time like it claims it will.

Face:

• Physician's Formula Organic Wear tinted moisturizer. My skin tends to get very dry in WA's colder weather so hopefully this will help combat that.
• Milani pressed foundation. To combat shine.
• elf Highlighter in Sunrise. Love this as a highlighter! I meant to get Spotlight though.
• elf Mineral concealer. A thinner concealer that helps brighten my skin and is moisturizing.
• UK Pop Beauty primer. To help the pressed foundation stay put.
• Wet n Wild blush in Mellow Wine. Great darker blush.
• Milani blush in Luminoso. Great brighter blush.
• Sheer Cover Concealer. Love this under the eyes and/or for heavier coverage.
• Benefit Erase Paste concealer. Favourite for under the eyes.
• theBalm Bahama Mama bronzer. For contouring.

Lips:

• Milani HD Advanced Lips Colors in Candy Apple, Vivacious Fushia, Classy Nude and Modern Mauve. Super moisturizing, great for layering or wearing alone and easy to apply.
• Milani Sheer Cover lipstick in Cafe Stop. Sheer, dark brown, moisturizing.
• Jordana lipstick in Matte Nude.  Got to have a nude lipstick!
• NYX Round Lipsticks in Fig and Lousiana. Two great pinks.
• Wet n Wild Matte Lipsticks in Purty Permisson and Mauve Outta here. A bright red and favourite. I did have a dark purple but removed it because the formula is quite dry. Instead I took a Wet n Wild lipstick that is a very dark red.
• elf Lip Liner and Blending Brush. I love this for defining my lips! I apply it right below my bottom lip and around my cupids bow only.
• elf Primer & Plumper.  Great for making my lipstick really last and my lips look great.
• Rosebud Salve and a vegan lip balm. To keep my lips from drying out.

Brushes:

• Eyelash curler, powder brush, foundation brush, lip brush and eye brushes (liner, blending, crease etc).

Here's a makeup look I recently wore featuring NYX Round Lipstick "Ergo" topped with Milani HD Advanced Lip Color "Candy Apple".
