What's in My Makeup Bag | December 2016

December 5, 2016

AFFILIATE LINKS | PR SAMPLE*

I've been slacking on the makeup lately so I thought I'd put together a selection of products that I would like to use this week. I've tried to do this before with limited success, but I am definitely feeling a bit bummed about how unloved my stash is lately! 

For base, I've picked out a few products I'd like to test more - the Veil Cosmetics Sunset Skin Foundation* in 3G and the Make Up For Ever Ultra HD Foundation Stick. Both of these are relatively new additions to my collection, and I have positive first impressions so far. I also threw in the Veil Cosmetics Complexion Fix, which I've only used once so far but think it'll likely help my puffy undereye situation. (Why are there still allergies in December?!) 

On the face, I've stuck to my trusty Benefit Watts Up and Kevyn Aucoin The Sculpting Powder in Medium. I love both of these to death. I didn't really like Benefit Watts Up on my face at first, but seriously, it looks SO GOOD when photographed. 

Keeping it simple for eyes this week with one lovely neutral shade in the form of ILIA Silken Eye Shadow Stick in Age of Consent*. I haven't given this a proper review yet, but this is a lovely golden taupe-y sort of shade. Top that off with two more loves - NARS Larger Than Life Eyeliner in Via Veneto and Chantecaille Supreme Cils Mascara. I also love my Glossier Boy Brow in Black, even if sometimes I have such a hard time with the sparse area on one brow! 

I tried not to pack a bag full of lipsticks, because let's be real, how many will I actually wear? I threw in the Dior Addict Lip Glow Liner because I still don't really get it and I'm hoping to figure it out. I am loving the Bite Beauty Matte Lip Crayon in Glace and also want to show my Armani Lip Magnet in #507 some love. 

I packed this bag in a bit of a rush and I see that I kind of stick to staples if I'm not really thinking about it. No wonder products sit around unopened forever! Anyway, I'm excited to see how this goes. 

Have you tried any of these products? What are your tips for getting makeup on everyday (even if you're snoozing too long and rushing out the door?) I'd love to know! :)

Loving this combo lately! Been taking the little pouch from the LV multipochette with me to run errands. 😍 It’s perfect to fit keys, wallet & hand sanitizer! Are you a small bag/wristlet person?? 😀
Totally forgot to share that I cut my own hair last weekend. 😂 Swipe to see the before & after!
Dinner last night @mainstreetsoc! How pretty is this cocktail?? 😍Their lobster capellini is one of my fave dishes to order there. What are you up to this weekend?!
I think I was the only person wearing pants at the beach today 😂 but honestly the water was freezing and it was only 71 degrees outside. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Hope you’re all having a happy Saturday!
Finally breaking out this beauty today! I don’t know why I didn’t use it sooner! 

How are y’all feeling about the Chanel price increase? Did you manage to buy something from your wishlist before it happened?? I’m over here th
Happy Tuesday! I haven’t been on here too much lately - I’ve been really into gardening and started an Instagram lol! What have you all been up to lately?
A few favorites for this sunny Monday!

☀️ Need to get my life together in my planner again. For those wondering, this is the LV Paul notebook cover and it’s no longer available. 😭 Lots of planner content over on my other account @bunnyplans!
Excited to finally be wearing a cute summer outfit and actually have plans. 😀 I might even put on some makeup hehe. Happy Friday! What are you up to this weekend??
