I used to travel across the boarder often as a child. Because I live about an hour and a half away from the boarder in Niagara, we used to go to the States and shop all the time.
But then they put the passports in affect. And we stopped!
But my first ever passport showed up in the mail five days ago! So naturally, we planned a last minute trip!! :P
I wanted to bring one duffel bag, and that's it. As there's not a lot of room in the car we took!
For makeup I wanted to challenge my notorious for overpacking self. So I got a very small bag, and I used that for my makeup for the week!
This is the small bag I chose, It's a small leather purse that I took the cross body strap off of. It clips shut!
For base, I'm bringing:
Paula's Choice Oil Controlling "primer" put into a LUSH sample pot.
Deluxe sample of Urban Decays Optical illusion primer
ABH's stick foundation
MUFE conceal and correct palette
NYX's dark circle corrector
Benefit's stay don't stray sample (as a primer for my concealer!)
Hard Candy Glamofluage
Rimmel Clear complexion translucent powder
For cheeks I brought:
Physicians Formula Argan Wear Bronzer in Light Bronze (when packed on it turns into a shimmery bronzer, but with one layer it's a highlight on my skin tone!)
Essence Pure Nude highlight
ELF Blush + Bronzer duo.
Tarte amazonian clay blush in Paaarty
I packed my usual every day brow products with me, Essence make me brow, and Annabelle brow to go kit!
For eyes, I'm bringing:
Too faced shadow insurance, Essence lash princess mascara, a quad of matte brown crease/transition shades, two colourpop super shock shadows to go with the quad. Tarte tartelette tease palette, ELF wine not smudge pot cream shadow to go with the tarte palette. Two different pairs of falsies, lash glue.
For lips, I packed:
MAC Twig - a nude
LUSH's Santa Baby - an orangey red (my holy grail lipstick!)
Clinique's Heftiest Hibiscus - an orange
Aveda Nourishmint gloss - a clear shimmery gloss
Joe Fresh Lip Cream in Fuchsia - a hot pink
Those lip products should fit any situation!
