Hey everyone! I'm back with a different kind of post today. I love watching people's what's in my bag videos on YouTube so I decided to do one of my own! I'll give really brief descriptions of what I have from each category: face, eyes, and lips.

To start off I should mention that these products are just a few of the things I've been loving (or don't have anywhere else to put them). Because they're in my makeup pouch they're easy to access and they're what I tend to grab more frequently.
That being said let's start with the products!
That being said let's start with the products!
Primers and Concealers:
The face products! These aren't nearly all of my face products but I like to keep my base products elsewhere since my makeup bag isn't very big.
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circle Concealer in Light:
This is my favorite under eye concealer at the moment because I have very dry under eyes despite the fact that the rest of my face is very oily. Usually concealers cake up and don't look nice under my eyes but this one does a nice job of covering those dark circles like the name would suggest.
Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in #25 Medium:
Another Maybelline concealer! Can you tell that I like Maybelline products? Anyways I use this concealer for the rest of my face, but I don't use it that often. I prefer to just use a light base product to cover the acne scars and this concealer is a shade too dark for my face at the moment.
Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer:
This is a deluxe sample size that I got for Christmas awhile back. It has a really thick texture and it isn't a product I use very much either. I usually reach for my e.l.f. eyelid primer because it's not as thick and it's only $1 too!
Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser:
This is a clear primer much like the Smashbox face primer. It makes my face feel really smooth but I don't notice any significant change in the appearance of my pores when I use this. I'm also really lazy and don't always use a face primer.

Eyeshadows, Eyeliner, and Mascara:
Revlon Illuminance Creme Shadow in #710 Not Just Nudes:
This is a really interesting product because it's an eyeshadow quad of all cream eyeshadows. It has two matte shades and two shimmer shades. The matte shades are the lightest beige color and the second darkest brown shade. It is on the sheer side but provides a nice wash of color and can crease if you don't put any powder eyeshadow over it so be careful!
Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeshadow Stick in #002 Bulletproof Beige and #003 Bad Girl Bronze:
These are some of my favorite products to use. Bulletproof Beige is the eyeshadow I reach for the most because I use it to highlight the inner corners of my eyes on a daily basis. It's a nice beige color with a subtle shimmer. Bad Girl Bronze is a deep brown with golden shimmer. They are both nicely pigmented but can be blended out to a nice sheer wash. Beware that they do crease on my eyes without a primer but then again my eyelids are very oily so if you have dryer eyelids it might not be a problem.
Benefit They're Real Mascara:
This is a sample size I got for my birthday from Sephora last year. I was excited to try this out because there were so many rave reviews for this product. I think it's an okay mascara but it can get a little clumpy if you're not careful.
Urban Decay Single Eyeshadow in Space Cowboy:
I've also heard a lot about this product. It looks like it would be a very nice shimmery beige color but when swatched it only shows up as glitter. It's nice for special occasions or when you just feel like adding a little more sparkle to your look. Overall I really like this but don't use it everyday because of the super reflective qualities this eyeshadow has.
Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeshadow Paint in #006 Rich Russet:
This is a very unique product. It comes with a lip gloss applicator wand and the eyeshadow is a thicker liquid consistency. You can pat it on the eyelid for a more opaque look or sheer it out with a brush or your finger for a sheerer look. It lasts really well on my eyelids with minimal creasing.
Loreal Infallible Never Fail Eyeliner in Black Brown:
This is the retractable version which means that you don't have to sharpen it which is nice. It's a nice brown color and glides on smoothly. It does last on my eyes without smudging. I even went running with this on in the summer heat and it didn't smudge on my eyes!

Lip Products and Blush:
Korres Lip Butter in Pomegranate:
This is a nice pink, red color and it glides really smoothly on the lips. It doesn't last very long but provides a moisturizing, glossy finish that I love.
Nivea A Kiss of Smoothness:
This is a great lip balm that I use throughout the day. It keeps my lips moisturized and smooth. There really isn't much to say besides it's a great lip balm!
Josie Maran Coconut Watercolor Cheek Gelee in Pink Escape:
I got this in a Sephora Favorites kit along with my makeup bag. I really love this product and it's my go to blush. It's really natural and goes on a lot sheerer than the color would suggest. It's a nice blush that's more towards a sheer red color in my opinion.
Loreal Color Caresse Wet Shine Stain in Coral Tattoo:
I really love this product because it leaves a super glossy finish on the lips. The color is also a really nice coral color. They do leave a slight tacky feeling on the lips but they are very long lasting as well.
