Beauty: What's in my make-up bag?

 I always love articles about what's in people's hand bags, suitcases and make-up bags. So today I will show you what is in my make-up bag. These are the items that I use on a daily base for casual wear ,and most of the time what I wear on my face in the pictures.
I won't show you any lipproducts just because those variate everyday and I like all sorts of colors on my lips.
First let me start with this cute make up bag that I got from my boyfriend. He knows me too well, I love the classy look and the cute bow ofcourse. Before I would stash all of these items in my make-up drawers but ever since I got this bag I like to keep it together so I'm able to find things more easy in the morning.

The first thing I start with in the morning is hydrating my face. I've used alot of creams and hydration products which always seem to fail me. My face can't handle some creams and turns out giving me red or ichy skin. But I've been looking and looking and came to the conclusion that the store Yves rocher has the right creams for me, I don't know why. I've been using the Sebo vegetal gel creme for a long time now and it moisturises very well and leave my skin in good condition. However other products from that line do tend to give me ichy skin, so there might be a difference in ingredients.

Let me start by saying that I don't like to have a lot on my face. Foundations, primers, spot correctors name it all, I don't like it. I only use powders on my face, I like my face to breathe. I don't know how to express the feeling, they just feel like 'too much' for me. As I like to keep things more natural, I love this face powder. It gives a great teint to my face and covers it lighty. The make up brush next to it is my favourate! Yes it really is my favorite, it is the flat top studio brush by ELF cosmetics, the brush itsself is so cheap I bought it for €3,50! It applies so easily and light, I just love it.

As for bronzer and blusher I love to use these 2 in combination all the time. They give a healthy glow and great addition to the shape of my face. I don't use the bronzer all the time but the blush is a daily musthave for me. When wearing the 2 products together I get a lot of compliments on how 'fresh' my look is that day, which is positive :)

The eye area. I wear eyeliner/ pencil on a daily base. I love to have a soft brown line underneath my lid to make my eyes appear fresher. As for the upper lashline I sometimes use this black kohl liner by mac to give the illusion of fuller lashes, by wearing it on the inside of the upper lid. My brow powder has never changed in these years that I wear make-up. It's a very affordable product that fulfills all of my eyebrow needs :). My mascara's are always changing, I love variation in my mascara's because some mascara's give other effects. This came to a point where one time I had over 8 mascara's in my make-up drawer, which was a little too much for me. Lately I've been using this one by Yves Rocher. It's pretty good in doing it's job, but next time I need a more long lasting mascara.
