What's In My Bag | Make-up Edition

 Whats in my Make-up bag?!

So i thought i would show you all what is in my make-up bag. Though i should mention that i no way at all think that i am a beauty guru, nor will i ever will be- i care way too little about wearing make-up. That being said, i do have quite a few products in my little bag. So lets begin! 


I feel like i should mention beforehand that i have extremely pale skin, so when you see my foundation, you needn't freak out, because i really am that white- this means i always have blue veins showing under my eyes (i used to think it was from lack of sleep, but apparently it's a common condition for pale people). This leads me nicely to my first concealer. My Natural Collection stick in, you gets it 'Very Fair'. This goes on first to set my under eye base. 


Next is my liquid concealer, in 'Very Fair'. My favorite liquid concealer is the Collection 2000, but since i've nearly ran out, and i'm far too lazy to spend time scraping around the tub, i picked up the Seventeen version. I am yet to try it, and may possibly give a review later on. I only tend to use any concealer under my eyes, as i'm one of the lucky people that do not get many break outs. Though now I've said that, I've probably jinxed myself. 

Finally, i will be ready for my foundation. I have been using Rimmel London's 'Wake Me Up' Foundation. You can read my review of it here. It's not an amazing foundation, it doesn't personally make me look any more awake or vibrant like it insists. But like you'll soon notice a lot, i'm very lazy, so just didn't like the thought of trying different foundations. Though again, when i went to buy a replacement for my nearly empty bottle of this, it was out of stock. Shock. So i decided to try Revlon's '24hr Colorstay'. I'll probably also do a review for that once i start using it. 
The two foundations look completely different in colour next to each other, but that's only because they are. Using the Remmel foundation, i could only use a small amount, whereas the Revlon can actually be used properly. See, laziness.
Finally i use a powdered foundation to set my masterpiece. I don't like to spend a lot of money on make-up, as you can tell by now. But my cheap Natural Collection pressed powder, in 'Very Fair' seems to do the trick for me. 
Now to focus on my eyes! I like them to stand out, so that at least my whole face wouldn't disappear if i stood next to a white wall. I use my Remmel 'Scandaleyes' waterproof eye liner pencil nearly every single day, i absolutely love it, and it really is waterproof. Trust me, i stand there around 10 minutes per day trying to get this beauty off. The grey stick is Maybeline's 'Colour precision' eyeliner that i use on dramatic days.
I only use mascara when i'm not wearing eyeliner. I'm lazy, and don't see the point in applying it when my eyes are already black. So i try to stick to mascara on days when i am particularly lazy. I recently purchased Seventeens 'Super Lash' mascara, because i liked the bottle. That's the only reason. And after the first use, i realized i really shouldn't use my eye judgment in the future, because it's not amazing compared to cheaper ones out there. Review possibly coming soon.
So there you have it... That is what is in my make-up bag. I'm not one for base eye colours, or primers or anything. I like to keep it simple. I've realized this blog has turned more in to a daily make-up routine, rather than a what's in my bag blog. But never mind 'ehh. Let me know down below if any of you have tried any of my three new products, and if you of a good reasonably priced mascara that can replace this one!
