It's been over a year since I posted my last What's in my Travel Make-Up Bag post. Last time, I was on my way to London; however, this time I'm on my way to somewhere much less exotic - Toronto. Despite living quite close to the Canadian border, I've only ever ventured up there once. But with a long weekend looming in front of me, I've decided to head up north again to visit a friend, and eat some donuts and maple syrup and whatnot.
Let's jump into what I'm taking along for the journey.
As you can see, I've kept my options limited. I'm not checking a bag ($25 each way? I think not), so I've had to carefully select each liquid product, only taking the bare necessities. For my base, I opted for my most travel-friendly foundation: By Terry Sheer Expert in 2 ($65). This will also be a good reason for me to start using this foundation, I've had it for months and have used it maybe three times! I also decided to bring along the Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer in Porcelain ($23), as it will cover both under my eyes and any blemishes that may arise during the weekend. Finally, I've chosen my well-loved Rimmel Stay Matte Powder in Translucent ($5).
For eyes, I've given myself a few options, filling up my MAC eyeshadow quad with my current favorites: Grain, Era, Sable, and Brun ($10 each in pan form). My eyebrows also wouldn't be complete without my beloved Anastasia Brow Powder Duo in Medium Brown ($23). I've also chosen to bring along the Stila Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner in Damsel (part of the Stila in the Light Palette for $39), for any eyelining that may be required. Finally, I'm along this teeny tiny Fresh Supernova Mascara sample ($25 for full-size), which I'm very curious to try out!
I'm also bringing my favorite contour shade - Burberry 'Light Glow' Blush in No. 07 Earthy ($42), which is so perfect for fair skins, but it also works well as a very natural blush. However, I couldn't just leave myself with one blush choice, could I? At the last minute, I threw in the Laura Mercier Second Skin Cheek Color in Spiced Cider ($26) - possibly the best named, and perfect for Autumn blush I own. As for lips, I decided to bring one of my all-time favorite lipsticks, the Clinique Chubby Stick in Bountiful Blush ($17), as it will cover any and all needs I'll have lip-wise. Finally, I'm brining the Marc Jacobs Daisy EDT Rollerball ($20) with: my travel-scent of choice.
Are you travelling anywhere soon? What will you bring with?
