What's in my Makeup Bag?

I'm not one to wear a ton of makeup, but I do keep a bag! Apparently, I like the colour pink when it comes to this stuff, though. I never wear foundation, as I hate how it feels and I've always rubbed it on something to the point of embarrassing myself, be it a sleeve or something. I only wear white eyeliner in the corners of my eyes, and some mascara. I have some lip stain that I've never touched, but it feels good knowing that I have it just in case. 

My makeup bag also mostly contains hair accessories and necessities. Ponytails, little elastics for those small braids and subtle hair styles, bobby pins galore, etc.. The red and white bobby pins are from Little Honey Pies. I bought these so long ago, and now she makes floral pins and headbands! So cute!

The necklace is from outsideeverywhere. I won a giveaway and used some shop credit. I like keeping it in my makeup bag instead of with my other jewelry because it makes a great last minute accessory if I really feel like dressing up. On the right, it's my favourite eye liner, ever! It's Annabelle, and it works like a dream. I've tried NYX and others, and none of them blend as well, or are as white. I just put some in the corner of my eyes, and smudge to try and make my eyes look bigger.

My actual bag was a gift from my friend at work, who also did my makeup at my wedding. She surprised me with it when she came by the morning of my big day, and it was so nice. She stuffed it with all sorts of goodies, including the nail file pictured above. I'm not sure where she got it, but it's lovely and fits quite a few items.

I'm a huge creep and would love to know what you keep in your makeup bag!

It has been so long since I've done one of these posts! I think the last time, was this one. I forgot how much fun they can be! My purse has changed since then, thank goodness, and it's only gotten bigger. I carry less day-to-day stuff in it, as I usually now have to shove an extra pair of socks and shoes, or a water bottle in there because of my job. I also usually wear black to work, and this bag goes SO well with it! 

I bought all of the bags quite a while ago, so I don't think they're available, but I linked you to the stores anyways. The wallet was actually a gift, and I am so in love with it! Three of my lip glosses are home made, and the others were gifts or given to me as part of Influenster. I also have some Color Energy aromatherapy roll-ons in there. One is a headache relief, and the other an immune booster! They both smell amazing, and the headache one definitely helps take the nausea away when those headaches strike.

What's In My Bag?

I've carried around so many purses...but really, not so many. When I find a bag, I usually hold on to it until it breaks or falls apart on me (usually in the most inconvenient places at the most inconvenient times). I always fall in love with one. The past couple have been messenger bags, that go over the shoulder. 

I went over to my mom's on Sunday and we made some Christmas Ornaments. After we were done those, she let me raid her closet of purses, haha!

I'm always carrying everything with me. I've got a reusable shopping bag from Urban Outfitters in Seattle, a peppermint halo wand from Sage for my migraines and headaches, lip gloss, hand lotion, a pen, my passport (never know if we'll ever have an impromptu states visit!), headphones, and even some hand sanitizer from Bath & Body Works.

Also, I've decided to go on a Pinterest Strike. I am no longer letting myself look at wedding ideas on Pinterest as I'm getting too overwhelmed with ideas. Anyone else have that happen? I'm still going on and repinning a ton of Christmas gift ideas and such, so I'll still be on there :)
