What's in my travel make-up bag!

I generally tend to over pack when it comes to make-up. This time I think I have done pretty well though and only took some basics with me. As you know, I will be traveling to Turkey for a week and this should more than suffice.

I found this cute bag a few months ago in one of our local drug stores. I <3 it!

  

On to the products (MAC concealer and MSF are in LE packaging):

As you can see I have a little eclectic mix of products with me. I am taking some trusted favourites and some items that I am trying to use up or that get too little love.

face:
Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation (53)
MAC Studio Finish Concealer (NW20)
Rival de Loop Hydro Roll-On Concealer (light)

What do you think? How much do you usually take with you?

I'm off to bed now. I shall be back with a new blog post next weekend!

european drug store haul - Essence, Catrice, P2 & Alverde

Moving to Europe has had its perks! One of the beauty-related ones has been being able to buy some pretty nice inexpensive make-up products. Essence, Catrice, P2 and Alverde are some of the local brands that sell their products for a few Euros.

Several times a month, they also release some limited edition collections - which let's face it, gets people running into the drugstores. For me, this is a whole new make-up world that I get to explore.

Without further ado, this is my drugstore shopping spree over the past few weeks.

Catrice Revoltaire LE eyeshadow palettes

I love the Revoltaire packaging. The products are quite decent too!
