A Weekend Getaway

Anyone who knows me, knows that I always over-pack! However, for my upcoming weekend getaway I wanted to only pack things that I would actually use. Below you can see pictures of the everyday products and the products that I am especially packing for my mini-vaca! The pouches seen in the pictures are part of a Sonia Kashuk cosmetic bag from Target. I am in love with the pouches because they are small enough to keep in your everyday bag and are see through so its super easy and quick to find your products!

In my everyday bag, I keep a widetooth comb, eyelash curler, a nail cutter by Revlon, a sample size Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch sunblock, Voluminous Million Lashes mascara, MAC Select cover-up conceler, Some Kinda Gorgeous by Benefit, Clear lipgloss by Maybelline, and gel eyeliner pot and brush by Maybelline. For everyday and most events these are all the products I need to look put together!

I keep these products with me in my everyday bag.

For this weekend, I have packed my NARS Sheer Glow foundation in Punjab, for under eye concealing and brightening I have Milani HD Advance Concealer, for highlighting I have a sample size Highbeam by Benefit, for sheer lips/cheek tint I have a sample size Posietint by Benefit, for cheeks I have packed Hand-Finish by MAC and Love That Pink by Revlon, BareMinerals Prime Time eyelid primer, and my good old CoverGirl professional eyeshadow palette that i've been trying to finish, for lips I am packing my new obsession - Tender Peach rouge volupte lipstick by Yves Saint Laurent (this lip stick cost me an arm and a leg, but it's like my new little treasure that makes me smile), for brushes I have packed a foundation brush by elf, a small kabuki for blush by bareMinerals, an eyeshadow applicator brush by Studio basics, a crease brush by Elf, and a blending brush by Sephora Professionals.

All the makeup I will need for day/night.

Ready to go!

My First YSL Rouge Volupte

There is something about the gold packaging that makes you feel like you are keeping a little treasure in your purse!

Tender Peach from Yves Saint Laurent is my first Rouge Volupte and is a splurge considering I don't wear a lot of lipsticks!!! However, I have to say I am pleased with my purchase. The color is so pigmented that I know this will last me a lifetime since you don't need to use a lot and the creamy consistency of the product helps it glide smoothly on my lips and keeps them hydrated unlike most lipsticks. If you are in the market for a peachy pinky nude lip product and don't mind the $$, I would suggest checking out Tender Peach.
