What's In My Makeup Bag?

I carry a huge purse. I love big purses so much and don't even own a small purse, other than a few clutches for nights out. I work 12 hour shifts, so I carry a lot of essentials with me to work. I found an amazing makeup bag at GAP! It has 3 compartments and I love that I can separate my toothpaste, toothbrush and floss from the rest of my stuff. I also keep all of my hair things in one compartment as well.

So, here's what I carry in my makeup bag:

(L to R top to bottom):

Some oil blotting sheets (not sure where I got them from)
Chanel Glossimer in Star
MAC Cremesheen Glass in Partial to Pink (my sweet friend Tricia got it for me)
nail clippers
glass nail file
E.L.F. concealer and eye brightener duo
old school scrunchie (don't judge)
hair elastic
some sanitizing hand wipes in lemon and orange (from Birchbox)
travel toothbrush
Marvis toothpaste (Birchbox, again)
Crest dental floss
travel hair brush (I only use it for the mirror)
Bath & Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar body spray (I wear this scent everyday. I'm obsessed).
an old ratty hair pick, but I have curly hair so I use it to fluff up my curls.
E.L.F. Complexion Brush (one dolla)
Colgate Wisps! Love these (from Target)
ibuprofen
N.Y.C. Translucent face powder in case I get shiny
Clinique Fresh Bloom All-over face color in peony
EOS lip balm in sweet mint
E.L.F. candy shop lip gloss in cherry (it doubles as a cream blush in a pinch)

Here is a picture of the GAP bag. It's an eggplant color with magenta on the inside. It has leather pull tabs on the zippers. I love this bag!! I got it on sale after Christmas, but I think they still have them in other colors. It's a great bag, as it's easy to clean and stays looking nice.




Do you carry a makeup bag? What are your daily travel must-haves?

Have a beautiful week!
xoxo
