We’re very quickly approaching summer 2016. Although we haven’t had much of a Spring because it’s ALWAYS so cold here in the UK, I’m really excited for the slightly warmer months. Today I have a “Whats In My Makeup Bag” post and it’s full of things that I’m going to be taking away with me next weekend for when I go down to Newquay. My Makeup Traveler Pouch* is from LYDC London and I love it, it’s so colorful and bright - perfect for summer!
Base: For my skin base, I’m taking my Urban Decay Naked Skin* this is seriously SO good. I am such a lover of full coverage foundations and this is a skin tint that has a slightly higher coverage from the rest. It blends super easy, lasts and day and it really flawless. This is definitely going to be part of my makeup routine when I go away! You really should go and check out Urban Decays new collection.
Blush: I’m taking my favourite blush with me and that the NARS Orgasm blush*. I am so in love with this, it suits my skin tone perfectly. A little really goes a long way and I love dusting it over my cheekbones.
Highlighter: My favourite part of doing my makeup is making my skin glow. Highlighter does that perfectly. I’m going to be packing my Urban Decay Afterglow Highlighter* in the shade Aura. This is pink shimmer shade and looks amazing paired with my Orgasm highlighter.
Lips: For my lips, I’m taking my Charlotte Tilbury Between The Sheets lipstick. I purchased this a couple of months ago and I’m so glad I did a matte finish in a gorgeous pinky shade. I really need to get my hands on more CT lipsticks now! Unfortunately, this lipstick was limited edition and is now sold out. I will also be using my NARS Orgasm lip gloss* for over the top!
Contour: For my contour, I will be using my L’Oreal Paris Infallible Sculpt. This is such a lovely product. I don’t really use the “highlight” shade but for a cream to powder contour, it’s amazing. I use a Pro Contour Brush* brush from Crown Brushes to apply and blend into my face. It gives a lovely matte, sculpted finish.
Brows: For my brows I will be using my L’Oreal Brow Artist Plumper. This has been my holy grail for about 6 months now.
the l’oréal sculpting palette is amazing. i got it a few weeks back and i can’t stop using it. sooooo good.

I love posts like this, I’m so nosey haha! How good is the urban decay foundation? People tend to look over UD for foundation but they’re so good!

I’ve been looking for a drug store contour and highlight pallet - I should check out the L’Oreal one! The Urban Decay Naked Skin sounds like a must try as well 🙂
I am loving the lipstick, lipgloss, and the blush.

I love the Urban Decay products but never used the foundation so am interested to see what the coverage is really like. You have a very well-rounded make-up bag collection - I’m quite envious 🙂
