Makeup Packing for Vacation

Brian had an all expenses paid workshop this week in St. Pete Beach, Florida so we've had the chance to spend four days and three nights at a hotel on the beach.  I thought I would share with you the makeup that I packed for our short little vacation.

I used my Modella makeup bag that I bought last year at Walmart.  I like it because it's a good size and it zips all the way around to keep your makeup secure inside.  Also, on the lid it has a smaller zipped pouch that's perfect for smaller items like eyeliners.

- e.l.f. Eyelash curler
- Physician's Formula Shimmer Strips Eyeliner in Nude Eyes: Champagne shade

- Essence Legends of the Sky Powder Blush in No Better Way to Sky
- Milani Minerals Blush in Mai Tai
(NOTE: All lip products were actually stashed in my purse.  I didn't have to pack any because I hoard so many!)


Last, I also brought a few brushes and other tools in a separate bag.

This is a Caboodles brush case that came in a set I bought a few years ago.  It's nice because the lid has an area for brushes and there is also some storage space for other items.

BRUSHES:
- e.l.f. Professional shadow brush
- Studio 35 contour brush
- SOHO crease brush
- Studio Tools crease brush
- EcoTools crease brush
- Studio 35 stippling brush
- Mary Kay Mineral Foundation brush

OTHER ITEMS:
- Microfiber rag (useful for wiping off excess makeup from brushes)
- Milani Nail Polish (see below for more info)
- mascara wand for separating lashes after applying mascara
- tissues
- pointed Q-tips
- Carmex lip balm

So this is a closer look at that Milani nail polish.  The shade is called Beach Front and I bought it here in St. Pete.  I've been wanting this color for a little while now and the CVS down the street had it in stock.  Too appropriate!  It's a light blue with silver shimmer although the hotel lighting doesn't really show the color very true to life.
