Do you carry a makeup bag in your purse? If you do, what’s in it?
.
Nope, I don’t! I rarely re-touch my makeup, so I usually don’t carry anything. If I ever carry any makeup with me, it might be that day’s lipstick/gloss.

I have pressed powder, lipbalm, and the lipstick/lipgloss of the day. But I rarely touch up.
If I know I’m going straight from work to some kind of dinner, event etc… then I take along everything I need to transform or touch up mu whole makeup, like blush, eyeshadow etc… but it doesn’t happen very often.
YES! I might need to re-touch later on. I don’t even retouch much, besides my eyeliner, lipgloss or foundation. However, I bring everything I’ve used that day, just in case.
Nope, the most I will carry is the lipgloss/liptstick I’m wearing that day. And, if I have an event on the evening and don’t have time to come home, I’ll take my pressed powder too, I tend to get shiny at the end of the day. But that’s all!
yes definitely, it includes eye drops, stick concealer, lipgloss (rarely use), sometimes i bring my powder foundation as well, an eye makeup eraser (to ”erase” the mascara or eyeliner deposits under my eyes), Q-tips.
Yes, but I rarely use it..
FIRST…?
I always have a hard time picking what’s going to be inside it (because I always want to bring EVERYTHING) with me. Right now I have ModelCo’s Cheeky Tints in Rosy Red, MSFN in Med Dark, CO Bigelow Mentha Lip Shine in Red and Pink, MAC Lipstick in Twig, MAC Cremesheen Glass in Partial to Pink, and Prestige eyeliners in Black and Granite. That’s probably too much and I already had such a hard time in picking out those products! I might need help.
I’m one of those who carry around a makeup bag.
I don’t usually touch up but it’s a good thing to have if I have spur of the moment activities with friends that won’t allow me to go home to fix myself up.
lip balm, the lip stick of the day and lipgloss of the day
I just make sure I sure an awesome base so my e/s doesn’t budge. I usually just have with my blotting papers, my lipgloss, lipstick, lipliner, and a mirrored compact.
Yes! I carry the green Colour Forms MAC bag. Inside I have a double mirror, TLC in Popster (Hello Kitty colection), a sample size of spray Fix and another one of Chanel Exceptionel mascara, a MAC plushglass in Posh it up, and a Tweezerman slant. I used to take a Blot, but it was broken
Nope, I dont really retouch much of anything. I carry lipstick, and/or gloss with me, if i have a purse with a pocket on teh inside side, i put my lip stuff, and cell phone in there for easy access.
I don’t use a makeup bag persay, but I do always keep three items in my bag- a skin matching/undereye brightening concealer duo (by benefit), either a liquid or pencil mascara, and a gloss.
No, I actually don’t to keep a makeup purse in my bag. Usually I wear small bags, but like you Christine I don’t retouch my makeup, except my lips so the only makeup product I keep in my bag is my lipgloss and sometimes my lip crayon
yes. powder foundation, concealer, black eyeliner and lipstick for touch-ups, and a lip balm and moisturising spray is always in there too. mine is a mac softsac
.
I have oily skin, so I have to “clean up” my face throughout the day. I carry some oil-blotting papers and either a refillable face brush or a retractable one with my pressed powder. I also carry my lip color for the day and maybe a clear balm.
yes, i carry “just in case” by benefit in my purse
The contents are pretty static…I usually change it up by adding whichever blush & lip color I’m wearing that day. But, the things that are ALWAYS there are:
LE bareMinerals Mineral Veil Refillable Buffing Brush (the Metallic Fuschia one)
BE Flawless Face Brush
UD Lip Primer Potion
Givenchy Effet Extention mascara in Black
Sephora Professional Series Lash Brush/Comb
DiorShow Brow Styler in Universal Brown
Kat Von D Sinner Roll-On Fragrance
Smashbox Tokidoki Stellina Compact Mirror
Chapstick Tropical True Shimmer balm
Prescriptives Moonbeam Gloss in SuperNova
Revlon Diamond Finish Nail File
If I’m at work, I’ll keep a small eye shadow palette in my bag to make a smokey eye before I go out, but usually I don’t bring any other makeup out– a little lip gloss if I’m wearing it, but I usually wear chapstick so I don’t need to keep touching up.
One of my friends carries around a HUGE makeup bag every day- with foundation, powder, concealer, etc. I don’t know how she lugs it around everyday!
I do but there are only a few items in it since I don’t usually have to touch up during the day. It’s just an in case of emergency bag ;P
Yes.. it’s necessary. I have one in my gym bag too.
Yes, but it only has the lip liner, lipstick and lip color that I’m wearing that day
I only have lip balm and pil gloss in my purse.
I don’t usually carry makeup but I do carry a little bag from Dungaree Dolly (www.dungareedolly.com – she makes the cutest bags!) that has a pair of tweezers, a mirror (also from Dungaree Dolly), Carmex and some blotting papers. I sometimes also have a lip gloss or whatever lipstick I might wear.
i carry my Besame pressed powder compact and a small zipped Mary Kay zipper pouch that has space for a lip pencil, lip brush and the lippie of the day. It also has a mirror, which is convenient. That’s about it for me.
Yup, I have blush, blot powder, and at least five different lipstick or glosses. :p
nope, never. the only makeup items i have in my purse is lipgloss/chapstick. i never touch up
Yep-only lip glosses and pressed powder. I have oily skin, so if I use a khol liner on my water line, I bring one with me as well. I also have oil blotting sheets.
I have a permanent one in my car with a clear gloss, black eyeliner, pressed powder and a blush, oh and definicils (all samples) but in my purse all i carry is a lip balm, not even the lip product i may be wearing for the day, because i dont retouch my makeup and I lose everything so Im always scared to lose a lip product i like
)
YES! I used to not “have a home”, so I had to be ready to get up and go spend the night wherever. I have my own place now, but I am still paranoid I might get stuck out on the street somewhere, so I always have the following with me (If you’re down on luck, just you have to look good!!!):
1.) One of those LE Bobbi Brown 3-pan palettes with foundation, contour, and blush (LOVE IT-bought it when I saw it on your site!)
2.) A travel size MAC 187 and 168
3.) A baby kabuki from Everyday Minerals b/c it’s cuuuute
4.) Crappy, dry lip pencil from Revlon (lol)
5.) Gray eyeliner from Victoria Secret
6.) Black Almay liquid liner
7.) Tweezers
8.) Blistex
9.) 3 lippies-MAC Brave New Bronze, Loreal HIP Charming, Sally Girl Curfew
10.) Lipgloss-MAC Love Nectar
I have a makeup bag, but I rarely touch up. I keep lip balm, handcream, a mirror and a mini deodorant in it.
I wouldn’t call mine a “makeup bag” but I have a pouch I carry with me all the time no matter what purse I’m using. It contains a comb, floss, hand lotion, hand sanitizer, tissue, nail file, contact solution, bobbypins, my MAC studio fix powder, lipstick, lipgloss, lipliner, eyeliner and that’s about it!
really handy!
Nope. I may throw a gloss in my purse but that’s it!
Oh yes, I carry a little make up bag with me lol.
In it there is:
Blush of the day, about ten million lipsticks and glosses, usually something like viva glam v, neutral glosses, a red lippy etc
Concealer pen, perfume and a little mirror.
Yes I have to. It keeps a big bag organized
I have that day’s lipgloss & lipstick, pressed powder, eye liner, blush, moisturizer, hand cream, tissues and bobby pins.
well not usually…I keep bobby pins in my purse and the lipstick of the day I’m using…Lately i have been keeping the MAC greasepaintstick in black from the style black collection in my purse cause for a quick smokey eye, you could just line your eyes and smudge…
Yes I do and sometimes it’s overflowing. Most of it is l/s and l/g. I can never make up my mind which to use and what combo I want to use so I carry them with me and change throughout the day. I especially keep my new stuff w/me so that my daughter doesn’t whisk something away while I’m not looking:)
I do. It feels like I take my whole vanity with me, stick the items in my makeup bag, stuff them in my purse and then take them to work with me.In the makeup bag I have: medicated lip balm w/ SPF, that day’s lipgloss & lipstick, face powder & brush, extra bobby pins and hair tie, blot tissue, sometimes blush, pocket mirror, mineral veil (must have for me),hand lotion with SPF and hand sanitizer.
I use to but now I reduced it to Carmex and Korress Cherryful lip gloss in Nude.
I carry a mirror compact and lipstick/lipgloss and lip balm. I only touch up lips.
I use a benefit bag that held a gift set (most of the stuff is thrown out/used by now). In it is … perfume of the day, 3 korres lip butters, benetint lip balm, lip products of the day, ud de-slick, gum, hand wipes, bobby pins, and whatever other cosmetics i grabbed before i ran out the door.
without fail! it’s one of those little pouches from le sport sac with the three zipper pockets, and i always tote q-tips, bobby pins, a pretty mirror, nail file, mocha rose rosebud salve, tweezers, and blotting papers.
then, generally, i also bring lip products of the day, a concealer stick, and usually a black kohl eye liner.
YES.. I can’t leave without it!
I don’t retouch my makeup during the day, other than lipstick/lipgloss so I obviously carry that and a compact so that I can see what I’m doing. I only carry more makeup if I’m going somewhere for more than a day but even then I try to keep it to a minimum by taking multi-use products.
Yes I do! It has some mineral powder foundation, some blush, a tube of mascare and a few tubes of lip gloss/lipstick. It also holds a small brush and ponytail holders/barettes…just in case.
LOL, All I carry with me is lipstick & lipglosses & lip moisturizers but my m/u bag has probably about 40 to choose from
Yep I carry a make up bag with powder, concealer, mascara, and lipgloss.
nope – i carry oil-blotting papers and a glossy lip balm, and that’s it!
Only lipstick. =)
tinted lip moisturizer
a l/g or two
blot powder
travel size powder brush
purell mini
that’s it…
I hate to admit it but i carry TWO makeup bags, one of them is strictly lip products. I just got into makeup a year or so ago so I’m still trying out the waters..which somewhat justifies my packrat mentality. I also finish off my makeup at work when i’m in a rush so I always have to have a few eyeshadows and eyeliner and mascara handy. But on most days I’ll probably only grab a lipgloss or lipstick. I rarely touch up my makeup. If I do, I grab my MSFN in medium dark for touchups and that’s about it. I just like having options
I am just like you Christine, I never retouch my makeup during the day/night and all I carry is what I’m wearing on my lips at the time. If I do a lip combo of liner, lipstick and gloss I only bring the lipstick and gloss with me. I’m too lazy to retouch anything lol
yes I do! I generally limit myself to : compact powder, lipstick/lipgloss of the day, lipbalm, blush and eye pencils (sometimes eyeshadows, when i want to do a darker look before leaving work)
Yes. You need to have things on hand just in case. The one thing I care the most of is lipsticks and lipglosses. I like to change it up during the day
studio fix powder foundation, secret blush beauty powder blush, bare truth lipglass, buoy-buoy lipstick, black and brown eye liners.
I always carry my make up bag in my purse. Its a must have for me.
Yes! I’m out of the house for long periods of time, and my eyes water and I blow my nose all day. Stupid allergies…. Needless to say I have to retouch all day.
I have:
Studio Fix powder
Concealer
Mascara
Tweezers
Benefit Lip Plump
Mirror
Blotting papers
A MAC Viva Glam lip palate
5 lip pencils
A lip crayon
6 lipsticks
11 lipglosses
No wonder my purse is so heavy!!
Must have a makeup bag, however I have done better about condensing the things in it LOL.
In mine I have my Select Sheer pressed powder in NW50
I have whatever lip color I am wearing and a lip brush
I have my tinted lip conditioner by MAC, which I so dont love but using it because I bought it.
I have a magnifying mirror compact and a travel powder brush for my face powder.
Absolutely. I’d never leave home without my makeup.
I’m an obsessive re-toucher.
I carry almost everything I used on my face in my bag.
