Because if there is one thing that I'm good at packing, its makeup. Just kidding.
Packing has never been a favorite thing of mine, even with makeup, there are endless options on what to bring, will I really need that and a favorite of mine, over packing. I am currently in Miami with my parents which means soaking in some sun and enjoying some relaxing time by the beach. It also means heat and waterproof makeup will be needed so here it is guys, some of my essentials.
Primer ▪ Concealer ▪ Foundation ▪ Powder ▪ Eye Shadow Palette ▪ Liquid Eye Liner ▪ Mascara ▪ Lip Balms
Anything that will give a matte effect is a must. I'm not a big fan of using foundations when travelling. A nice coverage concealer like Benefit's Erase Paste will do but it is always good to have the one you like in case you are going out for a more special occasion and need better coverage. If you like something that feels lighter but covers, dust a bit of Tarte's Amazonian Clay Full Coverage Powder Foundation or if you like liquid foundation, the Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Full Coverage Foundation SPF 15 will do the job.
As for eyes and brows, instead of bringing way too many products, a palette does the work. I like the shade range on UD Naked Basics and "Faint" is a perfect match for my brows. Eye liner is a must for me when going out, it makes me feel put together and same goes for mascara.
For lips, lip balms are the way to go. Anything that will hydrate and offer a sheer color, I'm in. Annabelle's Lipsies offer exactly that and if I want to add more pigmentation, I'll just layer it for a full color.
Here are the essentials that I brought with me, let me know what you would bring on vacation !
Love your choices of make-up to bring for travel. I would probably bring an eyeshadow palette with mostly neutrals colours,eye primer, tinted moisturizer, lip balm for sure, few lipsticks, and eye brow pencil. I usually skip mascara on my make-up routine, so I'll probably wont bring one.
