Emergencies Only

My makeup kit weighs about 40lbs.  My everyday bag, yeah it’s heavy, but not THAT heavy.  Fortunately the weight of it is due to my rewards cards (it’s a problem) and old Time Out and New York Magazines.  I wanted to share with you what I carry with me throughout the day makeup-wise because I would say these things are an absolute must…for me anyway…

I apply them in this order:

That Gal

Benefit Play Stick in Spin the Bottle (as concealer and everywhere else for rough days)

Studio Fix in C2 on my lids and lips

Liner and Lipsticks (I always carry O from MAC and No Competition from Benefit and Half Red Lipliner)

Mascara

One neutral eyeshadow and one that has a pop of color (I love Urban Decay for color, Smashbox has gorgeous options if you want a great palette- it won’t fit in your cosmetics bag, but it is gorgeous and versatile)

and some liner.

Ok- now you are all set for emergency skype sessions, and frantic calls to “meet me for a quick lunch” and spontaneous auditions or facebook profile pic opportunities.  Serious business, folks.

What’s in your emergency bag?
