What makeup do you take with you when you travel? Say you’re going somewhere for a week?
.
I’d take 2 15-pan palettes, a couple of pigments, 5-10 lipsticks/lipglosses, 3-5 blushes, a few eye liner, and of course, the usual staples (foundation, moisturizer, etc.)!

This depends on where I am going. What I would pack for going to the beach for the week, is much different than if I was going to Vegas. Usually it would be a moisturizer, concealer, powder, mascara, black and brown eyeliners, a few neutral eyeshadows, two blushes, and a few brushes.

Monday, June 29, 2009
Oh I’ve been thinking about this for ages now because I’m going on holiday for two weeks in July and I can’t take too much stuff with me. I don’t want to take anything that I really like or really expensive in case my luggage is lost, but also we’ll be going to the beach every day, so won’t be wearing much make up anyway.
Last time I went away (5 days at Disneyland) I took my 88 shimmer palette, few eyepencils, couple of mascaras, foundation, MSF natural+shimmer duo, 4 blushes, and a number of long lasting lipsticks (Lipfinity). I might just do the same again, it’s easier to take one palette than 10. ;)

It depends, if I am going somewhere like Japan or HK where I will buy a load of makeup there anyway, I will bring less makeup.
The usual stuff including skincare, primer, foundation, concealer, powder, brushes, a 4 pan quad, brow pencils, 2 blushers etc.
If I am going somewhere beachy, then I will bring less stuff.
Natalie

Nicole15
Monday, June 29, 2009

I’m traveling (for one week) in a couple of weeks and won’t be checking a bag, so I have to cut waaaay back! I’ll be taking:
- foundation (one of those samples they give you at the makeup counter)
- one blush
- a few eyeshadows
- one eyeliner (normally I just use a wet brush and apply dark eyeshadow as eyeliner)
- a few lipsticks and lip glosses
- mascara
- moisturizer
- a few brushes
It should all fit into a little travel makeup bag!
Jadelyn
Monday, June 29, 2009
Wow, apparently I travel light. Comes of being a pilot’s daughter and watching and learning from Dad’s ability to pack for a week in about ten minutes flat.
For a week I’d take with me:
1 mascara (the only one I own)
1 Eye Kohl
2 eyeshadows – my neutral base shade and my most-neutral crease darkener
maybe my rapidblack, depending on if I thought I’d be going out in the evenings
lip balm
Love Nectar lipglass
pressed powder and bronzer
Erin
Monday, June 29, 2009
LOL this is timely…. I’m going away soon and am trying to decide what to bring… I just hate leaving things at home.
I really only need to take one MSF, not two, right?
Tasha
Monday, June 29, 2009
i have this old ‘Caboodle” i’ve had since i was…probably 11. (27 now). I cram it full with cleanser, oil of olay complete moisturizer.
-My mineral foundation, mineral veil.
-A neutral quad that has the brown I use for my brows as well as 3 other great neutrals
-UDPP, a handful of other shadows. Typically some plums and a couple brights.
-Black, Brown, and sometimes Navy liner. Mascara
-Kabuki, face, blush, eyebrow/spoolie, and at least at 3 eye brushes
-Typically just one blush. a bronzy peach shade
-lots of glosses and lippies
Ashlyne
Monday, June 29, 2009
i try to bring minimum! normally it would just be a powder foundation, one blush (chanel’s tweed are my fave to bring along!), multi-coloured eyeshadow palette, one neutral eyeshadow palette, gel liner, brow powder, 1 lipstick, 1 lipgloss.
Think that’s about it! Travel light ;P
Rio
Monday, June 29, 2009
I bring my Coastal Scents 88 eye palette, because it has a few shades of each color. I also bring my Kat Von D Metal Orchestra palette. I don’t tend to bring lipstick, but occasionally I’ll bring a good red to go with my black eyeshadow. I almost never bring foundation, since I so rarely wear it, but I do bring a concealer and blush. I always bring my brush set, and, of course, face wash and moisturizer.
I get nervous bringing my really good stuff, like the Kat Von D palette, because things can get so easily broken while traveling.
Sass
Monday, June 29, 2009
Daily travel? To like work…shopping?
I take my powder, a mascara and my lip stuff. That’s it.
Sass
Monday, June 29, 2009
For travel travel?
…one of everything, a couple of nail polishes, a 15 pan palette and all of my MAC brushes.
hi
Monday, June 29, 2009
I’d take MAC Shroom, Sable, Sweet Liason duo, Dare You lipstick, Soap and Glory Marvelips, MAC Powerpoint in Engraved, a ton of q-tips, Fuschia and that white pigment whose name escapes me, Lingering brow pencil, all my brushes, my L’Oreal shadow quad, one mascara, my Sonia Kashuk bubblegum pink cream blushstick, Springsheen blush, my Bonne Belle quad, shadow base, face wash and on-the-spot acne med, conditioner, leave-in hair conditioner and my hairbrush.

I’m pretty minimalist both in my entire collection and when I travel. I’m leaving today for Amsterdam and Paris and have:
-1 Smashbox 6 eyeshadow palette
-1 Pixie (from Target) 6 eyeshadow palette
-Covergirl LashBlast mascara
-3 urban decay eyeliners
-Bare Esentuals foundation and powder
-Skincare stuff (moisturizer, etc.)
-Smashbox primer
-Brow powder
-4 or so brushes
-3 Lancome Juicey Tubes
Hm, not as minimalist as I thought, though it all fits in a tiny makeup bag. I don’t use blush because I redden super easily already and it’s just overkill. I don’t really care about bronzer enough to travel with it.
Christy
Monday, June 29, 2009
Way too much! MAC travel brush set (holiday collections), a few palettes, 2 blushes, foundation, concealer, powder, lipstick palette, 3-6 lipsticks & glosses, shimmer powder, moisturizers (day, night, eye), mascara, dark brown eyeliner, black eyeliner, eyelash curler, tweezers, glitter eyeliner, liquid eyeliner, and nailpolish. Yea, its a lot! I don’t end up using all of my eyeshadows, so next trip will be less I think.
Anna
Monday, June 29, 2009
Foundation, black liner, mascara, a MSF, my fav gloss at the moment and my contour powder. As for tools, I bring my stippling brush (holiday set) and a blush brush. And really, I only break those out when I feel like I really have to doll myself up. I don’t actually do full on “looks” when I’m traveling because I always feel like I’m wasting time or something…

When I travel, I always carry light, and I mean LIGHT.
I only take an eyeshadow palette that contains an eyeshadow brush, moisturizer, face wash, toner, and some lip gloss :)
AYHM
Monday, June 29, 2009
Yeah, I try to keep it light as well. As far as color, I carry a few shadows, a couple lipsticks and blushes that work well together so that I can create different looks with the same products. I also love to collect sample size items that come with gwp’s and I use those for travel and for my purse.
AYHM
Monday, June 29, 2009
I do take my travel brush kit as well (these are not the same brushes I use at home on a daily basis – they are dedicated for travel only).

As a former flight attendant – fired – i initially started out taking quad pallates for my work makeup, a couple of pigments, 2 or 3 regular brushes and more SE brushes (didnt want to lose the real ones) and many other things..but the point im making here is i was handling my own luggage and my quads were breaking all the time making a big mess of crumbled mixed up pan shadows. So it happened a couple of times and i had to rebuy 8 shadows as pots, but i would never travel with a pallate, this way if its going to break its going to stay self contained, and im a very experienced and professional traveler, who has also loaded luggage for the airlines as well. do no pack pallates in checked luggage. We arent called ‘bag throwers’ for no reason! But I’m all done with the airlines, too unstable and I dont like always not being home or getting stuck somewhere because of weather. But thats my advice from a makeup obsessed girl who worked in all aspects of aviation and many airlines for 10 yrs, most recent job Flight Attendant for 6 yrs and I can even fly em, I just dont have enough hours to get a rating!
Lauren
Monday, June 29, 2009
I don’t usually wear Bare Escentuals makeup, but I have the starter kit that comes in a great box to just throw into my suitcase. It has nice brushes so I don’t need my MAC ones (I do have to bring eye brushes, though). I put a couple MAC quads into the box and it’s perfect!!
Amber
Monday, June 29, 2009

moisturizer, primer, foundation, concealer, fluidline, pale yellow eye kohl or fasicnating, mascara, a couple tendertones (no other lip stuff, he hates it and I don’t want to hear about it, LOL), MSFN, setting powder, fix+ and my brushes. it all fits in a TEEENY cosmetic bag (except my brushes, they have to go in a brush roll). He is not prepared to see it all yet. IDK what I’m going to do when I move there. He’ll freak out seeing the HUGE train case, LOL.
