AIBU to be nosey and ask you what's in your makeup bag?

[Nicebucket]

Let's have a fun thread!

What's in your makeup bag ladies?

Which foundation do you use? And do you wear makeup everyday?

[8dayweek]

I have quite a collection of make-up but for every day I use:

Clinique Continuous Coverage (03 I think), Boujois Healthy Glow (52) & Rimmel BB Cream all mixed together (also have a dark Collection 2000 one which gets added if I'm sporting a tan)
Collection 2000 Concealer - Illuminating Touch (2) for under eyes & Lasting Perfection (2) for elsewhere (horrible acne scars )
Collection 2000 Loose Powder (Translucent)
Mac Blusher (Cubic or Buff)
Benefit Rockatuer
Primark Eyebrow Pencil (Dark Brown)
Benefit They're Real Mascara
One of probably nearly 100 lipsticks, lip pencils or lipglosses (although the majority are Primark, MUR or MUA and cost £1 each)

I didn't think I had that much, but I do seem to keep accumulating...

[Nimportequoi]

Kiehls Hydro-Plumping ReTexturizing Serum Concentrate
Benefit boing concealer
BareMinerals powder
Big brush
Sephora Le Waterproof mascara
Sephora eyeshadow pencil
Nars Le Multiple stick (blusher and day lipstick)
Nars Matte lip pencil
Tweezers
Blue eyedrops
Nail file
Antibacterial hand gel
Kielhs hand cream
Vaseline
Elastic bands and pins
Mini hairbrush
Paracetamol

In terms of the CT bronzer/highlight palate my view is that it's "nice". Let's face it the packaging is lovely . However, I don't think it's an "epic" product.

As much as I want to love that CT item I still reach for my Bobbi Brown bronzer and Nars Orgasm liquid highlighter.

Don't get me wrong - it's a good product, but it's not (for me) the best.

I've got quite a few CT sample sachets (foundation/cleanser/eye cream/mini wonder glow) that I won't use so if you want PM me and I'll pass them on.

What I really like of CT are the lipsticks/blushers/lip and eye pencils.

Estée Lauder double wear foundation
Estée Lauder loose powder
Ysl Touché éclat
Chanel soleil bronzer
Mac soft & gentle highlighter
Benefit brow zing
Rimmer eyebrow pencil
Benefit roller lash
Cheap eyeliner that I can't remember the make of
Mac lip liner
Mac fix spray
Urban decay naked palette
Then always lots of nude lipgloss/sticks

That's everyday make up -SAHM

[EmpressofBlandings]

Estée Lauder Idealist primer (now discontinued, but I got a friend to buy me two bottles in duty free recently, which will last at least 18 months)

Chantecaille loose powder in Subtle -stupidly expensive, but I have just bought my second pot, after the first one lasted 11 months of daily use.

Maybelline Brow Satin pencil/sponge combo in dark blonde. I'm slightly embarrassed to admit that I didn't realise that this was a two-part job -pencil and sponge applicator. It's a good colour for me - my eyebrows are basically non-existent, through natural shitness, early greying for 25 years, plus a good dose of trichotillomania.

Origins neutral skin coloured eyeshadow

Bourjois purply browny greyish eyeshadow

Bourgeois Liner Pinceau in dark brown

Loreal Million Lashes mascara in navy blue

Nars Multiple stick thingy in G Spot which I use as blusher

Smashbox Legendary Lipstick in Chestnut.

Plus a whole basket of other stuff that hardly ever gets an outing these days. Of that, I do still love my Urban Decay eyeliner, Rhinestone Cowboy - clear with very pale gold, very fine bits of glitter in it. Surprisingly effective even on my wrinkly old eyes (just turned 50 yesterday).

You made me laugh with this :-)

Even us mid-lifers still get to have fun with glitter!

But which is good do you think??
