Makeup & Skincare Travel Essentials!!

Hello Beauties,

As many of you will know I am moving soon! Anyway the way it works out I will be moving down the night before I have to start my new job which means I basically have to pack a suitcase with all my essentials as I wont have time to unpack that night! So I thought why not make a post of all my Makeup & Skincare Essentials that I will be packing for the night before I can unpack!

What I will be packing in my overnight suitcase -

Skincare (in brackets I will add the one I am currently using!)

By the way I ran out of most of my skincare last week / have to throw away as they were out of date (isnt it always the way) So I have picked up new products that I have to start tonight & more I have to pick up tomorrow!!

Makeup Remover (Garnier Micellar water - Full Review!)
Cotton Rounds (Boots Brand or Lacura)
Eye Cream / Gel (Currently run out need to pick one up tomorrow!)
Serum (Lacura Q10 Multi-Intensive Serum - New Purchase havent tried it yet)
Day Cream (Lacura Q10 Daily Face Cream - Again New Purchase yet to try)
Night Oil (Currently out & have to pick up new one tomorrow! really like the Argon Oil one)
Night Cream (Boots Simply Sensitive - I like it but have not been using it long enough for a full review)
Face Exfoliater ( Currently out - Also I dont recommend you bring this on a trip over night, unless you have really dry skin there really is no need)
Makeup removing wipes (Pure)
Lipbalm (Carmex - Love this stuff!)
Lip Oil (Essence Prettifying lip oil - have not been using it long enough for a review)
Lip scrub (Again currently dont have one)

If any one has any recommendations on skincare please leave them in the comments below as I would love to hear them! Also you may notice there are may Lacura products in there that is because I wanted to pick up the range & try them out for you guys as they are a budget brand & I have heard great things about them!

Makeup

Brushes (These are mixed brands but mainly from Real Techniques, MAC, P.S.Love..., Essence & Fuschia.
Primer (Need to pick one up but My faves are Maybelline Baby Skin Primer - Full Review & Loreal Infallible Mattifying Base - Full Review)
Foundation (Currently using Rimmel Match Perfection in 100 Ivory & 102 Light Nude I mix & match)
Concealer ( I use Rimmel Match Perfection, Collection Perfection Concealer or Essence Stay All day 16hr concealer)
Contour (NYX Blush - Taupe)
Bronzer (Catrice Sun Glow Matt Bronzer)
Blush (Currently trying out Essence Mosaic Blushes in 30 Kissed by the Sun & 10 Miss Floral Coral. You can check out the post where I hauled them here - Essence Haul!)
Eyeshadow (Palates are best in this situation! I will be packing my high-end Original Naked Palate & my high-street W7 In The Buff Palate. If you want read comparison posts of the UD Naked Palates & the W7 Palates you can just click on these links -Getting Duped! Naked Palate Original! & Getting Duped! Naked 2 & Naked 3!)
Kohl Eyeliner (Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil 01. Black Fever)
Liquid Eyeliner (Essence 24hr Liquid Liner)
Mascara (Catrice Ultra Black Volume Mascara - Lashes to Kill- with Black Diamond Powder)
Eyebrows (P.S.Love... Eyebrow Kit - Full Review)
Lips (So many choices here! Really just go with your gut instinct!)
Setting Product (For Setting Spray - Urban Decay - All Nighter Setting Spray. For Powder - Catrice - Prime & Fine Setting Powder or Rimmel Stay Matt Setting Powder)

Those are my essentials that I will be packing in my overnight suitcase!! None of the items I have mentioned are going to break the bank. They are all budget friendly (Well aside from the Urban Decay Products) This is not because I dont enjoy high-end products, of course I do! I just love finding hiding gems at the drugstore / high-street & these are my picks for the moment! For General Travel essentials you can pop over to my Lifestyle Blog where there will be a post up shortly.

Leave me a comment letting me know your makeup & skincare travel essentials or what is one product you couldnt leave behind! Also if you have any recommendations I would love to hear them!!

Thank You For Reading

Shop my Stash! Part #3 || What I intend on using up!

Hello beautiful people,

Now a couple of months back I did a Shop my Stash series. This is where I did a massive clean out of all my make up. I did this in 3 parts ( You can read the first 2 by clicking on the links here Shop my Stash part #1 || What I am throwing away || Fail Products ~&~ Shop my Stash #2 || What I am throwing away || Mini Reviews )

Today is part 3 & Im not going to lie this post is coming to you way later than I intended it to. I guess it just got lost & looked over in the past couple of months for some reason or other. Anyway I am here today to tell you all about the rediscovered items with my intention of using up until the very last drop!!

Urban Decay - All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray

I picked this baby up after I was on serious Nicole Guerrero kick on YouTube haha. I know this isnt the one she uses as we have different skin types but as she & and so many other beauty bloggers & Youtubers have raved about this product I just had to pick one up and try it for myself!! Sometimes you just have to try things out to see what all the hype is about. I generally save it for nights out or heavy duty work when we actually get hot weather in the summer as my primer is usually strong enough to keep all that makeup in place but lately I have seemed to forget it exists altogether. Whats the point in paying for an expensive good quality product & never use it??

Maybelline Colour Tatoo Eyeshadows

I loved these so much when I got them & I raved & raved about them on here, then put them in a drawer & forgot all about them #beautyhoarderproblems Anyway these are products I definitely intend on using up!! I have the shade Pink Gold and On & On Bronze! They are creamy, blendable, amazing pigment & staying power, easy to use & have a fantastic price tag! What more could you want!!? (to be honest I want to pick up more!!!)

Essence Lip Pencils

Im sure I have mentioned these before! I love the lip pencils from the Essence range! I have so many colours! The ones here that I picked to use more are Nude & Honey Berry. They have such a fantastic range of colours. They are creamy & smooth & dont drag on the lips at all or dry them out! If you are looking for good quality lip pencils at the right price, look no further! Essence has you covered!!

Eyeliner Pencils

These are 3 eyeliner pencils that I love and intend on finishing up! Two are from Essence (one of my favourite brands for eyeliners also) & one is from Barry M. The ones I have picked out from essence are (the one on the top) Essence long lasting eyeliner in Bling Bling & (second from the top) Kajal Pencil in Teddy. The one I picked out from Barry M is one Im sure you have heard me talk about in the past. It is a copper toned eyeliner No. 29 (Ive said it before & Ill say it again Barry M need to have names for their products instead of numbers. The names are half the fun!) I love all these liners but have been on a serious black eyeliner kick the past few months, but I intend on branching out again soon!!

Assortment of random eyeshadows I want to get more use out of -

Okay so I have realised that I have built up quite the collection of single eyeshadows yet never use them! I dont know how it happens!! It just seems to creep up on ya! Anyway the brands Ive picked from are 3 very affordable brands.

Starting from top, left to right - Essence~Keep Calm & Berry on, Catrice~ Limited Edition Metallure Metallic Marbled Eye Shadow C03~Metallicious, Natural Collection~Asteroid, Catrice~Fancy A Coppa Tea, Essence Irresistible Caramel Cream, Essence~Frosted Apple, Catrice~ Limited Edition Metallure Metallic Marbled Eye Shadow C01~Metalight, Catrice~Dont Touch my Mosserati, Essence~Fox in the Box & Finally Essence~Chocolate Jewelery!

I dont actually believe I will make it through all of these but I definitely want to give it a shot & get more creative with my makeup!! Ill keep you up-dated on how I get on!!

Thats the end of me cleaning up my make up drawers, for a little while anyway! Im sure I will have more #Shopmystash posts in the coming months!

Have you tried any of these products!? What did you think?

have you had a make up clear out recently let me know in the comments what products you intend on using up or leave me links if you too have done a post of this kind??
