To be honest, I’m not really a makeup person. I don’t go crazy, but I do like putting on a little from time-to-time. I also have a weird obsession with watching beauty blogs…I love watching the transformation.
Thank God I haven’t really had any pimples yet. So I don’t really use foundation or anything to try to cover up parts of my skin. Sometimes, I do get bags under my eyes, so if they’re really bad, I cover them up. I also don’t do eyeliner. At all. I could never learn to do it myself, but when others do it for me I’m always so afraid they’ll poke my eyes out or something. I trust very few people to help me with my makeup. I also do this weird thing where I laugh when someone does my stage makeup. I just get a sudden urge to laugh nervously and that somehow screws up the whole makeup process.
Anyway…I have a lot of stuff in my beauty bag (its more like a case actually) and should probably go through it. I already know that there is gonna be a lot of lip stuff. Some of this isn’t like serious top-notch stuff, but I love them anyway.
So here is a picture of my cosmetics bag. There isn’t actually a ton of stuff in it yet since I just started getting into beauty products and fashion and things like that. I’ve gotten really into the color black recently too, so I really like this design. The inside is red, which I’m not completely crazy about, but the bag itself is really good.
So the first thing I took out from on of the huge pockets were all my brushes. These are Royal & Langnickel Gems brushes that I got for Christmas. They are super soft and are my favorite brushes to use.
The next things that I took out were all my lip items. These are mostly lip glosses, because the ones that I have actually look like lipstick instead. The first one on the left is called Island Girl. I bought it in Hawaii last summer. It is just a lip gloss to make your lips shine, and it has a watermelon smell to it. The next five I bought at Macy’s on a shopping trip with my sister. The second of the five is my favorite. It is a dark red that is extremely strong and bright. After those five is actually one that I don’t really like. My sister gave it to me as a birthday gift, but it doesn’t really show up. I have no idea where she got it from, but its the thought that counts, right? Then next two are both coral from Revlon. After that is a nice dark pink from wet n wild. It has a little shimmer to it which I really love. The last two are from LipGloss. To be honest, they aren’t really my thing. The first LipGloss is just to make your lips have a little orange shine. The second one doesn’t really show up at all on my lips and I was a little disappointed. As for the last three at the bottom, the first one is pixi chap stick. The second is a dark lipstick from bobby brown. The last is a bright red from Ellen Tracy.
This is my favorite lotion to use. It’s Hawaiian sea salt that I got last summer from the Disney Hawaiian hotel I stay at, Aulani. It smells amazing and is really on of the only lotions that works on my dry skin.
And last but not least, my mascara, eyeliner, eyelash curler, foundation and blush. I haven’t ever really used the pencil eyeliner or the foundation. The reason I also haven’t shown you guys and of my eyeshadow pallets is because we just got back from a trip to our family’s lake house and all of the pallets are in my suitcase.
I hope you enjoyed seeing a little bit of my cosmetics!
Have an amazing day!
