Makeup Bag Must-Haves

September 30, 2020

Makeup Bag Must HavesLast week I shared some beauty discoveries I’m loving.  They’re all fabulous products that work SUPER well.

Today I want to share the makeup discoveries I’m loving.  They’re a combo of recent finds and tried and true favorites.  The items your makeup bag can’t live without.

Bonus points: every single item is green/clean beauty!

Tinted Moisturizer

I got a sample of this and instantly fell in love.  I’m honestly considering replacing my foundation with it because it works THAT well.  It’s buildable, breathable and goes on buttery smooth.  No creasing or caking.  You can barely tell I’m wearing anything when I have it on.  I love that it has SPF 30 and you can buy it at Target!  The only way this product could get any better is if they offered a wider range of colors.

Color: Light

Smokey Eyeshadow

This shimmery powder eyeshadow is soooo pretty.  I have it in Mink (perfect for a smokey eye) and honestly need it in every color.  It also comes in midnight, onyx and blonde.  You can apply it with your finger or with an eye shadow brush – it’s literally foolproof and makes you look like a professional did your makeup.  I wear it from lashes to crease and like to line my lower eyelids with it for a pop.

Color: Mink

Everyday Lipstick

This color – C.R.E.A.M. – is the perfect everyday shade.  I constantly get compliments on it.  Creamy but it stays put.  They’ve updated the packaging to a tried and true lipstick tube and I love how easy it is to apply.  I don’t even need a mirror.

Color: C.R.E.A.M.

The Perfect Red Lip

This lip tint is heaven sent.  I would honestly own it in every color if it weren’t for the packaging.  I’m lazy and don’t like to use a lip brush, but I WILL for this product.  It’s moisturizing, highly pigmented, stays put and fades evenly.  One of my biggest lipstick pet peeves is when color fades only in the center leaving you with very pronounced “lip liner.”  This product won’t do that.  You’ll have beautifully stained lips for hours.

Color: Lover’s Choice.  I really want this deep berry shade too.

Lip Balm

I am a HUGE Burt’s Bees fan.  It’s honestly all I’ll use.  Until I found this lip balm.  Super luxurious and moisturizing.  You don’t need to keep reapplying it.  I love the subtle scent.  I want to try it in mint too.

Highlighting Powder

Full disclosure: I love Charlotte Tilbury’s highlighter.  The only reason I ventured out was because I wanted a green/clean beauty option.  This highlighter blends well and reflects light beautifully.

Color: Backstage Pass

Nail Polish

I’ve talked about this 9-free nail polish before.  It’s hands down the BEST nail polish on the market.  The brush makes application super easy and salon quality.  I have 10 colors and adore this deep green for fall.  This is the only nail polish brand I’ll wear now.

Color: Lagrandiere
