A Minimal Travel Makeup Bag



I tend to strip my makeup routine right back in the summer, mostly because who wants their makeup melting off in the heat? I'm doing a lot of back and forth between London and Bournemouth right now, so I've edited my makeup bag down to the bare essentials - you guys would be impressed, I can fit all my makeup and beauty essentials into one bag now! 

My skin is super lacking in moisture right now, so I don't go anywhere without my Grown Alchemist Hydra Repair Cream. It's intensely nourishing but it also sinks in super fast, so it works for both morning and night. Base-wise, I've been falling back in love with my NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturiser, it's lightweight and a good match for my skin. I can build it up if I need to, but it's also a great everyday option. I pack my Makeup Forever HD Concealer because I'm essentially in love with the stuff. It's high coverage, but not cakey looking, so it's perfect for both under eyes and any blemishes - you'll see that multitasking products are a theme here! I have been packing my Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Double Ended Foundation Brush too, because it's perfect for foundation and concealer. 

I've been stripping down the cheek product situation and just packing my NARS Blush in Daydream. It's a light peachy pink with a vein of shimmer, so it doesn't really need additional highlight! I love how pretty this is on the cheeks, it gives a really beautiful glow!

I've pretty much exclusively been using my Benefit Goof Proof Brow Pencil to fill in my brows. It's dinky and super precise, and a perfect colour match for me. I've been travelling everywhere with my new NARS Long Hot Summer Palette, which has four fantastic easy-wear lid shades, and two great matte crease shades, so it's perfect for quick and easy makeup looks. My current mascara love is the Makeup Forever Excessive Lash, which gives thick fluttery lashes super easy.

And the only lip product I've been using is the Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm in Hibiscus which is a perfect everyday lip choice. 

And that's about it!
