Due of my numerous professions I have to travel around the
city a lot. At times my day starts from one corner of Mumbai and ends on the
other. There are times when it gets so late to head back home that I crash at
my friends place. And let’s not forget the surprise after work plans with
friends. So for moments like these I have my trusty make-up bag that goes with
me everywhere from one bag to other. Keeping a small pouch with your essential in
it is a must have for everyone. I don’t know how many times I have been
grateful that I have carried the pouch with me. Here I am sharing some of my
essentials with you all.

1. Eye & Face Make-up Removing wipes (Zuush): On the
days when I stay at my friends house or the time when a makeup mishap has
happened these come in handy.

2. Tooth Brush (Oral B): You never know when you might need
it. Apart from using it in the morning what if something is stuck in your teeth
or worse you have a bad breath. Keep this baby with you.

3. Tooth Paste (Colgate): Same reason as above.
4. Moisturizer (Olay): When it comes to moisturizer for my
travel bag I am not very particular about it. As long as it has SPF and it’s in
travel size I am good to go.

5. Kajal (Maybelline): I don’t carry an extra liner because a
kajal doubles up as it.

6. Mascara (Clinique): I love this mascara. Not just for its
small size but also because it does a great work at volumising your lashes. After
applying it on my lashes I use the leftover on my eyebrows to give them a
little tint.

7. Blush (Revlon): I remember until last year I wasn’t in favor
of cream blushes.I felt that it will make my oily skin look more oily and
sticky. But that thought has changed and now I love cream blushes. They look
quite natural and stays for a long time. It also doubles up a lip tint.

8. Lip balm (Maybelline): I don’t step out of my house
without a lip balm. It’s a must! For times when I am carrying a small bag, a lip
balm and kajal always accompany me everywhere.

9. Lip Gloss/Stick (Lancôme): As you guys have seen here, I
do have a lot of lipstick and I don’t get a chance to wear most of them often. So
I tend to keep the lipstick which I don’t use often in my pouch, this way I make
use of it.

10. Perfume Samples (Gucci): If you have those perfume
samples lying around now is the time to utilize them. It doesn’t make sense
carrying your large perfume bottles with you as it might break.

your pretty face miss.

12. Clips: On days when my hair is looking limb I tent to take

*14. Face wash: I ran out of it so it’s not in the picture. Keep
this for obvious reasons.

Oh great stuff.
I do find sanitisers a must whether you eat out or not. .
Also mint strips are great if you like eating chaats that leave a horrible onion like smell.
I use Facewipes instead of carrying a face wash as I've had the bad luck of a The Natures co fashwash tube accidentally cracking and spilling into my favourite handbag

I agree mint strips are a must, since I eat out a lot I need to stock up on it.
Thank you for stopping by 😀
