What’s In My Travel Make Up Bag? | Quick and Easy Products To Take With You Anywhere

As many of you probably know from my Instagram and Twitter I’ve been travelling a lot recently for assessment centres. Luckily, I have been given an job offer so no more travelling for a while! But this has meant I’ve had to only take the ‘essentials’ as a lot of my travel has been via train. On a separate note, I am now a pro at taking the tube with a massive bag on my back.

So I got this super cute make-up bag for Christmas the other year which has lasted me so long. It has two zipped areas which is fantastic as it can fit a lot in.

My whole collection is probably familiar to you if you’ve been following a while.

My priority is products to make my skin look better. I’m often breaking out when I get stressed and I feel so much more confident when my face is clear. For interviews especially you always want to look your best.

I always keep Carmex handy to help treat my dry lips. I also always carry around some spot gel, at the moment I’m using this tea tree one from The Body Shop.

Last but not least is eyes. My go to is to darken and fill in my brows, a strong eyeliner flick and a coat of mascara.

    What a great post – is this just for local travel or international too?

      It’s mainly for local! Although if I’m taking a full suitcase it’s pretty much what I take international too!!

    I’ve struggled a lot with packing products when travelling – I always seem to overpack. What do you do to cut down your product choice?

  7. Just wanted to say I love reading through your blog and look forward to all your posts! Keep up the great work!

    I use the Benefit brow pencil and love using it everyday, but what do you think of the ABH pomade? I have Auburn hair too and aim to have a better match.

    What do you think of the L’Oreal True Match Foundation?? I’ve been looking into it and want to know if it’s any good for dry skin ๐Ÿ˜„

  12. I love using Carmex in my everyday routine. It’s such a good lip balm and helps so much. Not tried the other products but they look good too.

    Thanks for sharing!
