Makeup travel bag

Hello everyone!

Well, sorry for the lack of post, I´ve been so busy! But today I´m back with a post that you may like it.

I don´t know if this happens to you, but every single time I have to fly, I hate packing my makeup. I can´t decide what to leave, what to take with me... And normally I pack way more makeup that I need. But, when I travel, I like to take with me on my purse a little bag with the basic stuff that allow me to do my makeup if I need to, and don´t look like a ghost in the middle of the airport.

The first thing you obviously need is a vanity case, but not so big. Mine is a little one that I found a long ago in Primark that have the perfect size for my purse and I can carry everything inside.

One of the things that I think you really need is makeup remover wipes (on travel size, of course!) and some moisturizer cream. I always like to clean my face with one wipe and apply my cream when the flight starts, and keep my skin hydrated for the whole flight.

I like to have too hand wipes to clean my hands after applying my cream. You don´t want to have your hands sticky all the time!

And then, I have my makeup. I do prefer to travel with compact makeup, because for the pressure of the flight, any crystal pot can explode and cause a big mess (that happened to me once, my Studio Fix explode inside my bag, and you can´t imagine how horrible is that!). Because there is usually a big change of temperature inside the plane, I also prefer to take a solid concealer and not liquid (also, one of my liquid concealers got bad on a flight, from that day on, always a solid concealer!). I carry my normal podwer for setting my foundation, a bronzer and a set from MAC that has highlighter and blush on the same box, with a mirror.

This one is Terracotta Bronzer by Guerlain

Then I have my eyebrow palette (cause I do my eyebrows with eyeshadow), my mascara of the moment and my paint pot from mac that I can use as an eyeshadow. Also I have my lash curler.

This is my palette fro travelling.

And for brushes I have a very tiny travel set from Bobbi Brown, that has every brush that I need and I don´t have to carry the big ones.

If I need to use any eyeshadow, I like to put on my eyebrow palette a neutral one (like Patina or Satine Taupe) a highlighter (Shroom is my all time favourite) and some black (Carbon is the one that I usually take). But if you can carry a big palette, I like to take with me my Naked 2 palette.

For lips, depending on the day, but I like to have a dark color and a gloss, so I can wear whatever I want in that moment (that usually is the darker color)

So that is what I carry on my bag when I travel, hope you like the post, and see you on the next one! And for those who are travelling soon, safe flight!

Sigma

Hello there!!

I was not sure about this, but now is confirmed. Sigma is changing some of the things in their brushes.

The firs noticeable change is that from now on, all the Sigma brushes will have the three ring ferrule in all the brushes.
All the Make Me kits are being changed to come with this new feature.

And now, in all the handles of the brushes you would see a sticker that will say "Made In China" because even they´re a U.S.A based company, they produce their brushes in China.

So if you get any Sigma brush now, it probably will be different, so don´t be scared! 

Hope you like the post, and see you in the next one!

New Stuff!

Hi there!!

I have some news for you guys...

Well, I am super excited to tell you that you can pre-order the new brushes from Gossmakeupartist very soon! They will be avalaible from the 12th of September. If you´re really interested on getting this brushes don´t forget to pre-order, because they´re made in small amounts, so probably it will be sold out so soon!
I will put the link of the website where you can make the pre-order (from England and Europe Only, for the US I didn´t find the link, sorry!)

Pre-Order of the brushes

And more new stuff, finally, Charlotte Tilbury has her new makeup line! This last two days she has been in Selfridges (the one in Oxford St), showing the line and giving advice to everyone that went to the counter. I am going very soon to visit the counter and try the products, but all that I´ve seen until now in Instagram and in her website, I really like it a lot... In fact, one the the products that I am more curious about is the Color Chameleon Pencil. I will tell you about every product when I visit Selfridges!

For those who love the neon colors, Sugarpill Cosmetics finally have the new neon pigments with glitter. Everybody is crazy with this ones in YouTube right now. I really like this kind of colors for artistic makeup, colorful photoshoots, etc. The only thing to work with this kind of colors in pigment format is that you need a very good base for the pigment to stick in. But the colors are to die for! And the brand also has a new palette, Cold Chemistry, designed in collaboration with Amelia Arsenic. Is a four eyeshadow palette, with an incredible pigmentation, and the shadows are in big size, so I really think it worth to get one if you like it.

And another palette that became very popular lately is the Lorac Pro Palette, it has 16 eyeshadows ( 8 matte finish and 8 shimmer finish) and the palette also has a Mini Behind The Scenes Eye Primer as gift. There are all neutral shades, some dark colors but the rest are very warm.

So this are all the news,
Hope you like it and see you on the next post!!
