What's in my travel make up bag - the Birmingham edition

Over Christmas, I usually pack my bags and head home to Birmingham for a few weeks of family time, homecooked food and relaxation. During the festive period, there are numerous family dinner parties, plus I always try and meet up with some old school friends. As I didn't have any big nights out planned, I kept my make up choices very safe and neutral.

17 miracle matte pressed powder/ Gosh smokey eyes palette in 01 Black (for eyebrows)/ 

Corn silk translucent face powder/ No 7 vital brights cream blush in Blossoming pink/ 

Garnier caffeine anti dark circles eye roll on

 The body shop eye palette in Golden brown/ Cliniqe bottom lash mascara/ Selection of eyeliners

 from GOSH, Natorigin, L'oreal and Maxfactor/ Maxfactor false lash effect mascara

17 mirror shine lipstick in Roasted red/ Pixi tinted brillance balm in Bitten berry/ 

Soap and glory sexy mother pucker gloss stick in Nudist

Inika kabuki brush/ Elf studio eyeshadow c brush/ Elf eyeliner brush/ Elf blush brush/ 

Disposable mascara wand/ Tweezers/ Eyelash curlers/ Nail clippers/ Nail file

Packing was a very last minute affair this time, and I think that rather showed in my choice of make up. Luckily, I had everything I needed, but I ended up taking an excessive amount of eyeliners, none of which I actually used.

Special mentions go to the Garnier tinted eye roll on for keeping my dark circles and puffiness at bay, The body shop dark brown eyeshadow and Maxfactor mascara for helping to enlarge my eyes, and finally the 17 roasted red lipstick for being the most gorgeous easy to wear holiday lip colour.
