Hello lovelies! If you came from my post on the skin care products I am bringing on vacation, then thanks for coming over to read this post! If you aren't into skin care and are just reading this then welcome! By the time you read this, I will be on vacation. Since I am always curious as to what other people bring with them on vacation where beauty products are concerned, I have decided to share with you what I am taking. I will be gone for 4 1/2 days, so I didn't pack a ton of stuff.
I am bringing all of my beauty products with me in my carry on because the products are too expensive and I don't want anything to happen to them when my suitcase is roughly handled.
First, I will show you what I had to put into my quart sized bag. Literally every makeup product is considered a liquid unless it's a powder.

Liquid Makeup Products:
- Bare Minerals Prime Time Face Primer- This is a primer that I have never used before but it is the only primer I own in a small enough size to bring with me. Where I am going, it's going to be hot and I am going to need my makeup to last all day.
- EOS Vanilla Mint Lip Balm- I can't go anywhere without this lip balm. It's just fantastic. It is definitely a must have product.
- Urban Decay De-Slick Makeup Setting Spray- I went back and forth many times trying to decide between De-Slick or All Nighter. I finally decided to purchase the travel size of the De-Slick because I know it's going to be hot and I know I am going to get oily. I figured this would feel good to spray on my face when it's unbearably hot and since I won't be carrying around powder to help touch up, it will help eliminate excess oil.
- MAC Prolongwear Concealer- This is product I just can't live without. It covers up dark circles beautifully and it lasts all day. I decided to bring this one because not only will I use it as concealer, I will also be using it to lighten up the foundation I am bringing and it will give it more coverage.
- NARS Smudge Proof Eye Shadow Base- This is the best eye primer I have come across. It prevents my eye shadow from creasing and it will help my shadows last all day.
- NYX Butter Gloss in Peaches and Cream- This is one of my go to glosses. It's effortless and beautiful and pigmented yet it's not sticky at all.
- Benefit Gimmie Brow- This is just the easiest and most efficient way to fill in my brows. It not only adds color but it keeps my brows in place as well. I am going to be on vacation, I don't want to be spending tons of time on my makeup.
- Sila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Liner in Dark Brown- This product is a staple in my everyday makeup collection. It stays put and doesn't move, which is exactly what I need. I love that it's dark brown. It still gives the definition that I want without the harsh look of black liner.
- It! Cosmetics No-Tug Waterproof Gel Eyeliner in Brown-Black- This stuff does not move. I swatched it on my hand and I scrubbed it and it went NO where. It stayed on my hands even after washing them. This will be perfect for the waterline and again it's not as harsh as black liner is.
- NYX Mage Shine Lip Gloss in Beige- This is my favorite lip gloss of all time. The color is absolutely perfect. It is so easy to just throw on and it will look great. It's very pigmented, not sticky and just perfect.
- MAC Lipstick in Syrup- Another favorite lip product of mine. It a beautiful color and just easy to throw on. Since it's a luster finish, it looks glossy without having to put a gloss on top.
- Urban Decay Sheer Revolution Lipstick in Sheer Streak- This is a very comfortable formula to wear while still being pigmented but not overly so. It's a great color to wake up your face.
- It! Cosmetics CC Cream in fair- I chose to bring this over all of my other foundations for 2 reasons. 1. It's lightweight while providing coverage and 2. it has physical sunscreens in it which will help provide more sun protection.
Powder Makeup Products:
Note: There will be 2 other girls with me so I am packing the eye shadows for everyone.
- Lorac Pro Palette- I haven't had much bonding time with this palette but it is filled with a ton of basic colors that will definitely come in handy.
- Cargo Matte Bronzer- This is a great matte bronzer. It's not too orange and it's not overly pigmented. It's really the perfect bronzer for my fair skin.
- The Balm Mary-Lou Manizer- This is the most beautiful champagne highlight that will be perfect as a face highlight and an eye shadow.
- Color Switch- I recently got this at New York IMATS and I decided to bring this over liquid brush cleanser simply because it was easier to pack. I haven't used it a ton yet but it will work.
- Cargo HD Setting Powder- I have been really enjoying this powder and made the decision to bring it along because I know we will be taking a ton of pictures. It is very light weight and you don't notice it on the skin.
- The Balm Down Boy Blush- This is the prettiest light pink blush that will go with any makeup look I decide to do.
- Sephora Eye Lash Curler- Because it is the only pair of lash curlers that I own.
- Urban Decay Naked Palette- I don't like the idea of being away from my makeup and being without an eyeshadow that I need. This is full of some of my favorite shades which will definitely be useful.
- Makeup Geek Shadows- These have been my everyday eye shadows and I can't be without them. I am bring a few of my staples that will mix and match well with the palettes that I am bringing.
