Mr P and I are off to London for the weekend, not just for the usual slob around at my parents' house, but also for a swanky night on the town on Saturday night. Finally get the chance to glitz it up a bit so this is a more upgraded version of my usual travel staples.
The bag is an old orange mesh Body Shop one that I've had for yonks but somehow it's always been my bag of choice. The mesh makes it practical and pretty and the size is just about right.
I picked up this little brush travel case in Muji and it's fab for carting about make-up brushes and keeping them separate from the rest of my make-up bag. Inside are my Real Techniques Detailer brush (for concealer), my MAC 224 brush (for 'airbrushing' concealer), Ecotools blush brush, and an old Body Shop foundation brush.
Base stuff: Erborian BB cream, still going strong after almost 7 months of constant use, Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage, Garnier Tinted Roll-On for eyes, Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection concealer, and samples of Armani foundation.
Other: Nars Orgasm blush, Armani 400 lipstick (just in case I'm feeling brave and because GG wants me to ;)), and Viva La Juicy mini perfume (because Mr P likes it).
The look I'm going for on Saturday is a simple bronze-y smokey eye (with the Kiko shadow stick), and hot red lips. I have a plethora of lipsticks in my handbag so if the red lips don't work it's not the end of the world.
What are your weekend must-haves?
I would love to see the finished look!
ReplyDeleteYour make-up bag is like a treasure chest!
I use La Roche Possay skincare as well. I want to try out Nars products. I use Bobbie Brown, but wanted to know if NARS is similar.
ReplyDelete@Tora, I actually did something different.... will post about it later maybe.
ReplyDelete@Snow Black, how do you get on with La Roche Posay? I think Nars products are a little different to Bobbie Brown, at least in my experience. NARS is more fashion forward, Bobbie Brown is more classic/timeless beauty.
