I’m the type of gal you see walking down the street with a bag on her arm so big it probably has the kitchen sink, washing machine and fridge in it. Diaries, notebooks, magazines, drinks – oh yes, I manage to fit the whole shebang in there. Given this intro you may think that I would haul around a face-full of makeup in there with me, but that really isn’t the case. I’m too lazy for touch-ups so I just carry around a very edited selection of products that I can jazz myself up with if the occasion arises…
Raise your hand if you like to haul around an infinite number of lip balms in your bag everyday. Yes, my hand is firmly up in the air. Now I don’t carry all the balms pictured above around with me daily (most of the time), but you can bet your bottom dollar there’s at least 2 swimming around in the depths of my handbag. But does one balm reign supreme? It’s time for lip balm smack-down.
For the past few weeks I have been going through a major anti-concealer phase. In fact I went away last weekend for 3 nights and completely forgot to take a concealer with me! Madness I know, as my Almay Line Smoothing Concealer is usually such a staple in my makeup bag. I have instead been preferring to skip concealer, leaving the skin looking so much more glowy and natural and using cream formulated face products instead. That means cracking out my L’Oreal Paris True Match BB Cream and for lipstick I have been using 3 on a constant rotation.
