What's in my make-up bag?

Ever since I started watching youtube videos, my interest in beauty started to grow. I discovered there was more to make-up than just my drugstore mascara. My make-up collection has been growing ever since. I simply enjoy testing different products and actually feel like doing my make-up relaxes me. I have probably been collecting for about a year now and I decided to share my favorit bits and pieces with you.

This is my make-up bag, it's from tony & guy, since I got it with a few sample-sizes in this thing. I actually am quite addicted to buying maku-up bags, though this seems to be my favorite.

 My all-time favorite mascara must be the 'they're real' mascara by benefit. I adore this mascara, though I usually do not enjoy the plastic wand. This mascara makes my lashes look voluminous, black, long and seperates them quite well, this also literally stays all day and does not smudge whatsoever. Because no mascara seems to seperate my lashes perfectly (probably because of my bad techniques) I then go for the 'one by one volum' express' mascara by maybelline New York. This mascara is empty, but the wand is perfect for seperating your lashes after using your first mascara. Even though I use it now it's empty, I did really enjoy it while it lasted, it seperated my lashes amazingly but wasn't as voluminous as my 'they're real' mascara.
It might be difficult to see, but on the left, I put my 'maybelline color tattoo 24hr' in the shade ' on and on bronze' next to my mascaras. This is called 'bad to the bronze' in other coutries, but is the exact same color. I love this, you literally put this on your lids and 'boom,'  perfect eyeshadow all day. Takes you two seconds and looks like you spend half an hour. Lovely.

 Though this eyeshadow double from catrice looks brownish in the pictures, they actually both are an amazing shade of purple. They are quite pigmented, but the darkest shade is quite soft as well. I personally enjoy this because it makes putting it on easier, it is less harsh and very blendable. The darker shade is amazing for in your crease and the lighter shade is a perfect all-over lid colour. The palette is called 'beauty bouquet' and it's from the 'eve in bloom' collection by catrice. These palettes are amazing since they are great quality, small and are like 3 euros.
Next to this duo, you can see my ELF waterproof eyeliner pencil. This eyeliner is amazing, it's black, longlasting and the tip is really slim, so creating a beautiful slim line is extremely easy with this thing. I can't work with any eyeliner, but this literally saved me. And all that for only 1 euro! Wow!

My extremely well-loved eyebrow kit by Sephora in the shade 'midnight brown.' I use this so often, the writing on the back has worn off and I've hit pan on my shade (need I say more?). The first shade matches my eyebrows perfectly and the wax is amazing to stick the hairs down. This makes your eyebrows look very natural and amazing. Note: Also amazing for traveling, since it contains a pair of tweezers, a small angled brush to apply the product and a mascara brush to comb through your eyebrows. Everything you want in one small kit. 

The lipstick on the right is my most used lipstick. Again an amazing ELF product, again just 1 euro. Obviously, the packaging isn't the best, but I can't complain for that price. The quality is amazing, just as the colour and pigmentation. This is in the shade 'charming. 

 Swatched it on my lips, the perfect pink colour, that's not too much out there and very wearable.

The next few products are face related, these save my life when I'm having a bad skin day. This first product is a BB-cream by Maybelline, it's the 'dream pure 8-in-1 BB cream.' I love BB-creams, especially on those days where you don't want to put too much effort into doing your make-up, but you definately need some coverage. I get this all the time, since my skin is not as clear as I want it to be. This specific BB-cream is especially for those of us with oily/problem skin. It conceals blemishes and redness, protects against the appearance of blemishes, contains spf 15, is oil-free, minimizes appearance of pores, clarifies your skin's look, hydrates, smoothes and complements your skintone. Wow, that's a lot of things, but it definately works. I feel like a full-on foundation breaks me out and is way too heavy, that makes this perfect for people like me. It doesn't break me out and looks amazing.

 When I need a little more coverage then usual, which is all the time, I go for my 'make up studio face it cream foundation' in the shade 'light beige.' It's an extremely high-coverage cream foundation, meaning it's also a great concealer. I find it a bit too much as a foundation, since it makes your skin quite cakey looking. It looks amazing as a concealer though, I use this on my spots and blemishes. Underneath my eyes, I usually go for the 'rimmel wake me up' concealer in the shade 'soft beige.' This is a bit lighter, so great to highlight the undereye-area a bit. The coverage is quite good, nothing too heavy, but great for under the eyes.
The last product I want to share with you, it my 'ELF high definition powder' this stuff makes your make-up last all day and makes your skin feel super soft. The powder is loose, which makes applying it a little harder, but the result is amazing. It blurs out your imperfections and it amazing with flash-photography.

I hope you enjoyed taking a look inside of my make-up bag, I'll speak to you soon.
