What's in Her Makeup Bag?: Travel Edition


Hey dolls! 

I'm traveling today, so I decided to post what's in my makeup bag? what I'm taking with me =D Each time I try to keep my bag light! Before I used to get loads of makeup that I won't use most of it,but now I   take either the newest products that I purchased or my favorite <3 

=D 



I love this makeup bag <3 <3 so spacious and fits everything, which is GREAT! 

FACE


My favorite foundation is Dior's Forever in 030. It is great for oily skin and light with the perfect coverage.  It's one of my holiest products, because I used it for the past 5 years! I always come back for this foundation , I absolutely love it and recommend it.

To conceal my panda eyes (A) just kidding I use MAC's studio finish in  NW35 ( its not in the picture). As Arab we tend to have darker under eyes circles and in my case i have tiny wrinkles, so I need to use a creamer concealer! In the picture is my latest finding MAC's studio sculpt in NC42.  

However, I recommend using more than one: one to cover up and one for brightening these two work perfectly. 

To stop your concealer from running like crazy you need to powder it and i'm using 17's  powder.  Any other powder loose or compact will do the same, just find the one you like. 

If I'm wearing a eyeshadow I would use a primer to hold the eyeshadow for longer time. Too Faced's  Candle light is great primer. If you don't have oily skin  you don't need a primer. 

Also, I choose Guerlain's bronzer and a highlight from Inglot 84. The combination is amazing <3 <3<3  Check my bronzer post for more information. 

Eyes


I'm taking these three eyeshadows along with crystal avalanche by M.A.C. 
So in the picture there is the gold "20 Or CĂ©leste "by Givenchy from the X-mas collection. I saw it I loved it and everything became history! It's a limited edition so try to find it if you are impressed. 

The second one on the left is nylon by M.A.C, it's a lovely golden-y frost, not a stark white, and as such it makes a beautiful base and highlight. Perfect for retro look <3<3 

The third eyeshadow by M.A.C is ricepaper  is a light yellow/golden shimmer shadow that is almost creamy in consistency. Its darker than nylon and I think its more on the champaign color. Works great as  inner corner highlight, brow bone highlight. 



For eyeliner I choose Sensai, which is PERFECT! Hands down my favorite liquid eyeliner. 
Also,  Armani's Eyes to Kill mascara, which is very dark black.  

However, to spice things up I decided to take YSL gel liner in Jade black. It's a dark green I don't know why they call it Jade black. I used it once and I don't remember how I felt toward it, but the reviews  of this eyeliner were positive. 

Cheeks


 I'm obsessed with these two blushers right now! They scream winter to me and I just enjoy the way they look on me. The first is Armani's blush in number 6. I love their blushers so amazing and  so pigmented. My second obsession is benefit's Sugarbomb its my favorite coral blusher, the mixture of the four colors creates a wonderful color <3 <3 <3 

Oops! I deleted the picture of the lipsticks I'm taking (A)  I'm taking two nude  lipsticks by Armani.  I'm loving warm and subtle colors.  

Hope you enjoyed this post and hopefully my next post will be about Dior's eyeshadows from the most recent collections and my favorite ones. I'm also planing to do a winter nail trends and which colors/styles are in for this winter.

My Eid Makeup !

Hello Girls!
Eid Mubarak<3 Hope you had a great Eid with your family as I did. I checked the comments and there was lonely comment requesting my makeup look for Eid. I wish I knew who was the annonymus who left the comment to thank her ,because she made my day :**** So I decided to try my best and do my first face chart =D I totally love thed looked and applied it twice the same day coz I took a nap! But both the times the makeup looked neat and lovely "prettier than the face chart, I wish I could put pictures of the real makeup but I can't"

So  I wore a muddy green dress "Olive color" and I just had my eyebrows tinted so I didn't want to wear heavy makeup and decided to go with soft shades.

1) I used Too Faced Shadow Insurance  "glitter glue" to keep my e/s from creasing. It's AMAZING! My e/s was perfect didn't smudge or fade<3 The difference between this primer and the other one from the previous post "Candlelight" is that the one I used for Eid is for loose and shimmery e/s.

2) I applied the champagne color all over my lid and applied the color bellow it into the crease ,to intensify the look I added the darkest color in the quad into the crease and blended it out.

3) I needed to intensify the color more by adding carbon e/s (any black color will work) to the crease and BLENDed the colors together! Don't add to much of the black e/s, because you want to keep the look soft and you don't want to lose the brown color.
4) To soften the harshness of the edges  I add some crystal avalanche to the brow bone and blended it out. I applied  Bobbie Brown's eyeliner in black.

After I applied Amani's eyest to kill mascara and poped MAC's no 36 eyelashes. I applied 17 wild curl in Black Brown "avaiable at boots" to my bottom lashs.

For my face I used Too Faced primer (applied it only on the T-zone) and applied on top dior's foundation
 "Forever" ,which is for oily skin ( Extreme wear). To cover my dark circle under my beautiful eyes :p I used MAC's studio finish concealer.

I used Chanel bronze univesal to my cheeks( YOU MUST MAKE THE FISH FACE) to  know where is your cheek bones =D and than added some blush on the apple of my cheecks (sunset Beach by Cargo) it's pinky and peachy!

The final step was to put lip pencil and lipstick ON.








Here is my first face chart, it looked waaaaay better on my ,didn't know how to do it , but I promise I will practice  more (A)


Hope who ever requested my Eid look was satisfied and liked it and hope that all of you enjoyed it as well. Next post will be about second day of Eid !

If someone has a blog please comment and leave your link, I would like to check your blogs =D Thank you guyz so much you really make me happy.
