    I use to wear a lot of makeup but now that my confidence has grown it is next to nothing. But I must have tinted moisturizer, blush and lip gloss that's all occasionally mascara and eyeshadow but I keep it pretty basic now.

    Clinique mascara, Burts Bees lip gloss - that's about it. I have some pressed powder and eyeshadow for special occasions, but those rarely get used. I'm pretty simple.

    I prefer a 'make love' bag, instead

    Chapstick is my only MUST.
    Depending on the day I'll do just a moisturizer. Some days bb creme and mascara (like today). Rarely will I go full face.
  • Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector (Coral), Rimmel foundation, Revlon Colorstay powder, No7 Blush, No7 Stay Perfect Eyeshadow in 'Mink', and 17 Va Va Voom Mascara.
  • Contour kit-cheap 15 color palette from Amazon
    Loreal foundation for if I contour
    Bare essentuals if I dont
    Purple cover girl mascara if I'm wearing lashes
    Revlon lash extend if not
    Nyx eye pencils in milk
    Elf eye shadow and face primer
    Tons of color palettes for eyes, lips, and face from elf, ulta, and Amazon
    Physicians formula lip plumper in clear
    Mac lip liner and eye liner
    About 40 brushes from MAC, bare essentuals, and Amazon.

    I love makeup but I wear it maybe once every two weeks or less. Normally it is just Aveeno radiant face lotion with spf. I used to do my makeup every day until kids came so now I do it more for others to learn and practice new techniques.

    I'm not a "makeup" capable girl, lol. Tinted lip balm or lip stain, a color stick (blush/lip in one), and mascara is about all I can competently (and care to) use.

    I despise foundation, even tinted moisturizer and BB creams (I I've tried a ton of them, including the Korean ones). I can NOT find a close enough match (super fair, but with olive undertones). However, I have found a Korean brand of concealer for my under eye darkness that I can wear alone and blends out perfectly. That's the "fanciest" makeup trick I can pull off, lol.

    My "must have" makeup item is the Indigo eyeliner from Clinique. For some reason, I just prefer blue eyeliner over most colors. Otherwise the rest of my "kit" is the standard foundation and powder xD

    Concealer and lipstick. Because I am cheap, and because Boots are remarkably good quality, I go with the Boots Naturals range, not because of the natural bit of the name but because they're the only ones that have a concealer that matches my skin tone.

    Lotion, tweezers, chapstick, and tinted lip balm. I don't really wear make-up, only on special occasions (and even then, not always.) lol

    Amen to that! And I am picky about lip gloss, it can't be even a tad bit sticky! I am hooked on Softlips brand right now. With or without color

    Baby Lips chapstick is all I ever carry on me. I don't wear make-up during the day because luckily I am not old enough to need it. I am sure once age 40 creeps around the corner, I'll be singing a different tune.

    Rosebud Salve...the best lipgloss evah!

    AGREED!! I have 5 tins of this floating around at all times. One for my nightstand, one for my handbag, one for my gym bag, one in my desk drawer, one that moves around my house as needed. Best stuff in the world. I give it as part of a little "happy gift" all the time and create addicted converts every time.

    Chapstick is the devil and he got me hooked. Cake batter flavor is my recent obsession.

    Also though, Pixi brand Shea Butter lip Balm in Coral Crush. It's sheer for just a touch of color (I initially though, whoa, too bright too bright, but I was wrong). Also though, it's perfect to dot and blend on the apple of your cheeks for a fresh blush look.

    I don't really have a makeup bag, but if I did, I could not live without one thing: Make up remover.
    I do have lipstick and eyeliner, but no makeup bag.
