Hello you beauties!
When you read this blog post I will actually be in Brighton! I am so excited as I've always wanted to go and now I finally get to. So I thought it was only right to tell you what makeup items I will be taking in my travel bag to Brighton with me.
1. My Illamasqua primer
This is the best face primer I have ever used and is the perfect travel size so can easily fit in my bag.
2. Garnier BB cream
While I still want a nice base for my makeup, I am only in Brighton for a couple of days so do not want to worry about using a heavy foundation. So I've decided to bring this BB cream with me as it offers great coverage.
3. Collection Lasting Perfection concealer
I think this is a staple product in most people's makeup collections! It offers amazing coverage and blends really well and is especially great paired with a BB cream.
4. Rimmel Stay Matte powder
I have always loved this powder and because it is compact rather than lose it means it is perfect to use while travelling and doesn't (hopefully!) make a mess.
5. Seventeen Define and Conquer contour kit
While away, I only want my contour to be very subtle, which is not really what I get with my beloved Benefit Hoola bronzer. So I chose to take this little contour kit with me as it really does contour your face well without being over the top.
6. MUA blush in 'Cupcake'
I love nude blushers and this is such a small, compact blush and so fits perfectly into any look and my makeup bag!
7. Makeup Revolution Baked Highlighter
This is the one I got from their advent calendar and I have honestly fallen in love with this highlighter so much over the past month or so! Plus it's quite small so easy to fit in my makeup bag.
8. GOSH eye primer
I always use this primer and have done for a very long time. It's really nice and moisturising and really makes your eyeshadow pop!
9. NYX Nude quad
This is one of those that you can make yourself and I have some really nice nude shades in this palette as who doesn't love nude shades!? I want to keep my eye look as simple and easy as possible while away so this palette is perfect.
10. Soap and Glory Lid Stuff palette
Of course I'll take some shimmer shades too! I love shimmer eyeshadows as you all will know by now. And this palette has some of the most gorgeous nude shimmer shades I have ever used in my life, and is the perfect size (it is very small with only 6 shades) to slot into my makeup bag.
11. No7 Intense Volume mascara
This is my go-to everyday mascara at the moment. It's not the best for volume (despite the name) but it is perfect for that simple natural look I am intending to do many times over my trip.
12. Freedom brow pomade in 'Blonde'
This is honestly one of the best eyebrow products I have ever used. I can't go anywhere without filling in my eyebrows, and because this product is the perfect colour for me and so easy to use, it was obvious that I would be taking it on my trip with me!
13. Seventeen clear definition mascara in 'Clear'
Of course I can't forget to set my brows once I filled them in and this clear mascara is the best product I have found for this.
14. NYX butter gloss in the shade 'Madeleine'
I don't want my lips to be too bold or a difficult colour to use while I'm away so a lipgloss is the perfect product to take with me. This nude lipgloss from NYX is honestly one of the best lipglosses I have ever used as it has an amazing colour pay off for a lipgloss but also is not too sticky,
So those are the very limited amount of makeup items I have taken on my trip with me but as you can see I chose them specifically so that I could create a lovely nude 'no makeup' makeup look. What makeup do you usually take on a trip with you?
I'll be bringing you another post on Saturday (I'll be back from Brighton by then)!
