What's in my travel makeup bag - Bali edition

I went for a 5 days trip to Bali last weekend and I'd like to share with you guys what makeup I brought with me. I was gonna take the pics while I was there, but I ended up being so busy I didn't have time. 

So here are the makeup bag that i brought with me 

I like to separate my liquid and powder stuff. I checked in the liquid bag and carry the powder ones in my hand bag. I don't want to risk shattering any of my pressed powder compact and liquid stuff is just too heavy to carry in my purse. 

Here are everything in the pressed powder bag.

1. MAC quad

Manilla Paper, Soft Brown, Corck, and Carbon

here's the swatch

2. MAC mineralize skinfinish natural 

The only powder I brought to set my foundation

3. Urban Decay Brow Box in Beige Betty

4. Benefit Powder Flage 

An awesome product to set under eye concealer. (I heard benefit is discontinuing this product T.T)

5. Shu Uemura eyelash curler (gold edition)

6. Ardel Accent Lash in 318

These are my favorite fake lashes. They are wispies accent lashes. Looks very natural on the eyes and I always gets compliments whenever I use these.

7. Single Eyeshadows

L-R: MAC Blac Type, MAC Jaunty, Stilla Kitten, Urban Decay Secret Service 

L-R: MAC Blanc Type, MAC Jaunty, Stilla Kitten, Urban Decay Secret Service

8. Bare Minerals Ready quad in The Truth 

Swatches,

9. Blushes 

NARS Deep Throat and MAC Stunner 

NARS Deep Throat and MAC Stunner

NARS deep throat is hands down my favorite all time blusher. It's a warm peachy pink. 

MAC stunner is part of a limited edition MAC me up collection. It's such a pretty pink blush with a gorgeous sheen. it's definitely cooler tone compared to NARS deep throat. 

10. Bronzer and Highlighter

NARS Laguna Bronzer and Dior Amber Diamond

And now, what's in my liquid makeup bag:

11. Shiseido Sun Protection Foundation 

I brought this foundation with me because of the SPF and because it doesn't budge once it's set on the skin. Perfect for the hot and humid Bali weather. 

12. Make Up Store Cover All Mix

This is a new addition to my foundation routine. I love the texture and coverage of this concealer wheel. 

13. Minis

I like to travel with mini products. So, I poured in some of my chanel vitalumiere aqua foundation in the MAC sample jar. I also brought with me benefit minis that I got from the rare beauty kit. High beam is the perfect liquid highlighter and I mostly use benetint on my lips. It creates the most beautiful pinkish healthy look on my lips. 

14. Tools 

As for tools I only brought with me my mini tweezerman tweezer and sephora sharpener. 

15. Duo Eyelash Adhesive in Dark-Tone

16. More Concealers 

Urban Decay 24/7 concealer, Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer, and Garnier eye roll on

17. Revlon Brow Fantasy and Revlon colorstay Eyebrow Liner

Mainly I just use the brow gel on the brow fantasy and use the pencil from the colorstay eyebrow liner. 

18. Maybelline Long Extreme Stiletto Waterproof mascara

This is my current favorite mascara. It has some fiber that will lengthen the lashes. I got tons of compliment wearing this mascara. A lot of people thought I wear false lashes when I use this. It made my non-existent lashes very noticeable. The funny thing is, every time I told people It's just a drugstore mascara, no one believes me. It's really amazing. 

 19. Clinique Bottom Lashes Mascara 

20. Lipsticks and Lip glosses

Loreal Glam Shine Miss Raspberry, Lancome Rouge in Love 230M, Etude House Roll Roll Gloss in no 05 

Loreal Glam Shine Miss Raspberry, Lancome Rouge in Love 230M, Etude House Roll Roll Gloss in no 05

21. Eyeliners

L-R: UD perversion, UD Midnight Cowboy, UD Corrupt, MAC Fascinating, Dolly Wink Liquid Liner

What's in my makeup bag

Hey guys, I've been working in my studio for the past couple of months and I just realized that the studio is actually a perfect set up to take pictures for this blog. It has a really big window and everything inside it is plain white. So I decided to test it out. 

What better way to test it out than to do a what's in my makeup bag. All of the pictures here is taken just on top of a plain white desk. You will see how awesome it is, because all of the pictures is also unedited. I only cropped some of them. No colour adjustment at all. 

Here you go:

Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy this post.

Would You Rather Tag

i know i wasn't tagged by anybody, in fact i have just started this blog thing-y. 
so anyway, i think this is such a fun tag to do ^^

1.Would you rather go out with messy hair and nice make-up or Nice hair and no make-up?
i can actually go out with both of them a bit messy, but i'd rather have nice makeup and messy hair. nice hair and no makeup to e just look like you don't have time to do your makeup and that's not always pretty

2.Would you rather shave your eyebrows or have your eyelashes fall out?

Both of these are definitely a nightmare, but maybe.. hmmm i can't decide.. maybe i'll go with eyelashes fall out cause i can still use fake lashes ^^

3.Would you rather be forced to shop at only MAC or Sephora for the rest of your life?

definitely Sephora. because my Sephora actually sells MAC (does that counts as cheating?) 

4.Would you rather wear lipgloss/lipliner look or 80's perm?

lipgloss/lipliner. I just can't imagine myself with 80s perm

5.Would you rather leave the house with an obvious foundation line or overdone blush?

most probably overdone makeup, cause it will fade out eventually 

6.Would you rather wear MC Hammer pants or biker shorts in public?

i actually have a pair of MC hammer pants, and it looks super high fashion with a pair of super high heels and a simple top 

7.Would you rather have a bad orange-y spray tan or really weird tan lines that can't be covered?

i would have to go with tan line, just because i have it. but looking orange-y is not even a choice 

8.Would you rather have a bad haircut or bad hair color?

bad hair colour. you can fix it so much faster than if you have a bad hair cut.

9.Would you rather have youtube or twitter taken away forever?

definitely twitter. i really will have nothing to do if youtube is taken away from me

10. Would you rather give up using makeup brushes or mascara?

Mascara. u can use brushes in several different techniques to imitate the look of mascara

have a great weekend everyone

with love,
