Makeup Products: Travel Edition (Part 1 of 2)

Last week I went on a ski resort trip and I thought I would post about the makeup products I brought. I packed my favorite products that I knew would last throughout long days and hanging out at night, plus a couple new lip colors. I also brought a couple multi-tasking items which are my favorite to travel with. I knew I would have to get ready quickly, so I also kept that in mind when packing. I used my Henri Bendel Brown & White Stripe Large Hanging Weekender Bag and had plenty of room. This is great for travel because it is easy to clean and has two large clear zipper compartments and a smaller zipper compartment with a hook as an option for hanging the bag.

1. Diorskin Forever Compact Flawless Perfection Fusion Wear Makeup SPF 25 in 020 Light Beige. This is my go-to powder, it provides great coverage and a beautiful finish. It always lasts all day on me and required only one touch up before going out at night.

 
2. Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation in shade #4. I love the buildable coverage of this foundation and it never looks cakey. Since it is very fluid and easy to apply, I was able to apply it quickly over moisturizer and sunscreen.

 
3. Giorgio Armani Flash Lip Lacquer in #519. I wanted a bright lip color to use during the day and night that was comfortable. This was perfect, and it fit nicely in my Marc by Marc Jacobs Percy bag so I could touch up throughout the day.

4. Chantecaille Brilliant Gloss in Pretty. This is a great little multi-tasker. It’s a pretty coral, strawberry pink with very fine glitter that’s also moisturizing.

5. MAC Eye Kohl in Teddy. I am obsessed with this shimmery chocolate pencil. I love using it for a smoldering eye look at night. I also wore this alone with mascara for the car ride home.

6. Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner in Intense Black. My first favorite liquid eye pen liner. This really is an intense black and I love using this for my top lash line. I love that you can do as fine or thick of a line as you want.

7. Chanel Sourcils Sculpting Eyebrow Pencil in Blond Clair. One side has a pencil and the other side has a spool brush. This pencil is soft but not too soft and blends nicely. I love that the spool brush is attached.

8. Revlon® Colorstay Liquid Eye Pen. I always bring two liquid eye liners, just in case I lose one or it runs out. Eyeliner is my must have makeup item. I absolutely love this pen, I get the precise line I want for my top lash line. I have repurchased this and I believe it has been reformulated though.

9. NARS Blush/Bronzer Duo in Deep Throat/Laguna. I wish this was permanent, it was so great to travel with my go-to blush and bronzer in one sleek compact!

10. MAC Eyeshadow Quad. Top Left: Era, Top Right: Wedge, Bottom Left: Patina, Bottom Right: Espresso. Some of my favorite MAC eyeshadows, all are very long lasting finishes.

11. MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft and Gentle. It’s a beautiful champagne highlight with shimmer. This is great to use day or night.

12. ClĂ© de Peau BeautĂ© Concealer in Beige. The best concealer I’ve ever used for blemishes or dark spots. I used it as a touch up later in the day.

13. MAC Paint Pot in Painterly. I used this as a base for my eye makeup, this made all of the items I used, last until I took my makeup off at night. The consistency of this is very easy to apply.

14. MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack. This gel liner doesn’t budge and I like to use it on my bottom and top lash lines.

15. Burberry Sheer Eyeshadow in Pale Barley No. 22. This is one of my go-to colors for a quick wash of color and it is beautiful when worn alone or with other eyeshadows. It’s so buttery!

16. Maybelline® Volum' Express® One-by-One™ Mascara in Blackest Black. You can build this up nicely and still have clump-free lashes.

17. bareMinerals® Stroke of Light™ Eye Brightener in Luminous 2. I wasn’t feeling well for a couple nights on the trip, so I was really glad I had this for circles.

18. MAC Brow Set in Clear. This sets my brows really well and does not leave a hard finish like some.

Please check back tomorrow to see the makeup brushes and tools I brought!
