Fresh here on the blog, make up! Well, this is more of a ‘what to pack’ post. Here is the thing, I am VERY lazy. Maximise travel time & minimise weight. Here’s my 5 products only make up tip. It works especially well for long haul flights 😉 or anyone who is lazy like me.
The logic behind my 5 products only program
Foundation product x 1 ==> Even out the complexion freshen up the entire face. Light to medium coverage is preferable. Especially for long haul flights, the look is fresh, holiday skin; not flawless.
*If there’s lots of thing on your face that you cannot bear then bring a concealer *you’ll need to deduct a product from the other categories 😛
Brow product x 1 ==> If you have okay with your natural brows, feel free to skip and add product in another category.
Eye product x 1 ==> Either an eye pencil or a mascara. For blond / light lash friends, I recommend mascara more than eye pencil. Framing the eyes bring radiance to the look.
Cheek product x 1 ==> Radiance. Radiance. Radiance. No matt choices please. Sheer or low on pigment will make life a lot easier. Light weight & comes with a usable brush / applicator is preferred.
Lippie x 1 ==> Obviously.
Pick your favourites to travel with you 😉 5 min and one should be out the door to explore. This is my tight and compact packing method. For most trips I travel with 5-10 makeup products.
Lazier yet, watch my 23sec youtube to see my before and after with each step 😉
Or my very first ‘tutorial’ on Youtube 😉 12min video
Here are some of my previous travel combos. Each has caption with exactly what the item shade is where applicable.
Me? Dehydrated combination skin. Only oily on my nose. I am pretty good at blending make up with my fingers. So unless the item is CRAZY pigmented like Marc Jacobs ReMarcable foundation, I apply my foundation using my fingers. Brush or sponge gets counted as 1 item based on my packing system.
Special mention
Dandelion is with me for every trip because it can be used as an all over face luminous powder and blush (low pigment). PLUS it is super light with a workable applicator NB check if the brush smells funny!!! When I repurchased for the 4th time, the brush was smelling funny (like pungent, nauseating smell). I bought it from Boots Oxford street (London), which offered an exchange. Issue was that the brush still smelt funny. The one from Harvey Nichols also had the same problem. I did contact Benefit via email. The customer service passed my case to someone else. That person never followed up. The CS was sweet and tried to email the other person again, but their quality department was total BS. It has casted doubt in mind on their quality control. This is my last dandelion due to doubt over quality. I wanted to share this info so that you’ll check the brush before you do make a purchase. You can tell that I’m pissed, right? How bad is it for a travel blogger to have the urge to mention this?
So that’s it from me. Share your favourite travel makeup 😀 If you’re to pick only 5 makeup, what will you take with you?
**For me, in flight carry-on will ALWAYS be just 5, but otherwise, under 10 makeup/related products. I’ve not actually traveled with more than 10 makeup items 😛 Another post about my makeup packing – “Below 10 days toiletries & makeup packing”

Great article. It is very unfortunate that over the last years, the travel industry has had to tackle terrorism, SARS, tsunamis, influenza, swine flu, and also the first ever true global tough economy. Through it all the industry has proven to be robust, resilient as well as dynamic, acquiring new tips on how to deal with hardship. There are usually fresh difficulties and opportunity to which the market must once more adapt and react.
What I have seen in terms of laptop memory is always that there are specs such as SDRAM, DDR and many others, that must match up the requirements of the mother board. If the personal computer’s motherboard is pretty current and there are no main system issues, updating the memory literally requires under sixty minutes. It’s among the list of easiest computer system upgrade processes one can consider. Thanks for expressing your ideas.
What i don’t realize is actually how you’re not actually much more well-liked than you may be right now. You’re so intelligent. You realize therefore significantly relating to this subject, made me personally consider it from a lot of varied angles. Its like women and men aren’t fascinated unless it?s one thing to do with Lady gaga! Your own stuffs nice. Always maintain it up!
One thing I’ve noticed is always that there are plenty of misguided beliefs regarding the financial institutions intentions while talking about property foreclosures. One myth in particular is the bank desires your house. The financial institution wants your money, not the house. They want the cash they loaned you having interest. Keeping away from the bank will only draw the foreclosed final result. Thanks for your write-up.
Great work! This is the type of information that should be shared around the web. Shame on Google for not positioning this post higher! Come on over and visit my website . Thanks =)
Interesting post. I honestly like the subject matter covered here. I’ll come back every now and then for more posts like this one.
I have read several good stuff here. Definitely worth bookmarking for revisiting. I surprise how much effort you put to create such a fantastic informative site.
Thanks for discussing your ideas on this blog. In addition, a fable regarding the banks intentions while talking about foreclosures is that the bank will not have my installments. There is a certain quantity of time that the bank will require payments occasionally. If you are also deep within the hole, they will commonly desire that you pay the actual payment completely. However, i am not saying that they will not take any sort of installments at all. In the event you and the traditional bank can be capable to work a thing out, the foreclosure approach may cease. However, in case you continue to neglect payments in the new system, the property foreclosure process can just pick up from where it left off.
Please let me know if you’re looking for a article author for your weblog. You have some really good posts and I believe I would be a good asset.

Thanks for every other fantastic article. Where else may just anybody get that type of info in such an ideal means of writing? I’ve a presentation next week, and I’m at the look for such info.
One thing I would really like to reply to is that fat reduction plan fast is possible by the proper diet and exercise. Ones size not simply affects the look, but also the complete quality of life. Self-esteem, depressive disorders, health risks, and also physical ability are damaged in weight gain. It is possible to do everything right but still gain. Should this happen, a medical problem may be the reason. While a lot of food but not enough exercise are usually to blame, common health conditions and popular prescriptions can certainly greatly help to increase size. Many thanks for your post in this article.
You must participate in a contest for the most effective blogs on the web. I’ll suggest this web site!

Yet another thing to mention is that an online business administration training is designed for college students to be able to without problems proceed to bachelor degree education. The 90 credit education meets the other bachelor diploma requirements when you earn your current associate of arts in BA online, you’ll have access to the latest technologies within this field. Several reasons why students want to be able to get their associate degree in business is because they’re interested in the field and want to find the general instruction necessary just before jumping to a bachelor diploma program. Thanks alot : ) for the tips you really provide with your blog.
