What's in My Makeup Bag

If you've ever wondered what a beauty blogger keeps in her makeup bag, here's your answer. This just my makeup bag, one of many makeup bags. I tend to overstuff my bag with stuff, and have never been able to find a bag that would fit everything. I also change out products pretty often. I will probably review all the things you see in my bag unless its already reviewed, has been reviewed everywhere else (sorry, I'm a little lazy) or is discontinued.

Tip my bag over, unzipped, and this pours out.

I found this bag at Goodwill and grabbed it because it made me think of steampunk fashion. I love steampunk fashion (and stripes Stripes are awesome). Anywho, the bag is by Face Secrets and their products can be found at Sally's Beauty Supply. Brushes, brush rolls, makeup bags, brush bags, etc. Lots of things. Back to the bag. It needed a wash due to eyeshadow stains inside, what I think is a lipstick stain outside, and it tolerated being put through the washing machine in a fine mesh bag. The lipstick stain didn't come out but it's not noticeable. The bag itself is trimmed in leather, maybe faux leather. It's... Pretty roomy. I have overstuffed it to the point it won't close and had to empty it to rearrange it, dump certain products or leave them entirely.

It's kind of a beige-gray. Greige?

This is the only bag that fits my Urban Decay NAKED palette, a Christmas gift from Ze Boyfriend from 2011 I believe. I've had it for maybe two years now and love it. I may not be big on neutrals but it's certainly a good palette to have for work or party, since it has great basic colors to make various looks with various finishes. Or would they be textures? ...Does it really matter?

If you enlarge this picture, you'll see the lipstick stain.

Aside from fitting my palette, with a little arranging, it can hold my platoon of eyeliner pencils and two liquid liners as well as my small brushes. I manage to fit my few single eyeshadows that I carry and lip products. I have so many eye pencils, as you can plainly see... I just dump them in the bottom. They don't require as much arranging thankfully. I do have to dig in my bag to get my hypoallergenic liquid liner (only one I can use so far sadly). I also have a good amount of lip products; NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams and Round Lipstick, as well as Covergirl lipstick I haven't yet reviewed. I also have many brushes and they tend to be small, which I hate trying to pack and find in my bag. It's havoc when I do my makeup, at least it's pretty afterwards.

That is all that I carry in my makeup bag. There are things that don't fit or that I carry with me (such as my NYX Stay Matte compact) which I didn't put in the image. If there's anything here you want to see reviewed, let me know. I do already intend to get swatches of my Urban Decay pencils, to show you all of them. And yes, I screwed up several times on the numbering. Uggggghhhh... It's my own fault though.
