Travel Makeup and Toiletries

I love reading blog posts about travel makeup and cosmetics. I’m curious as to what other gals bring with them when they travel. I know Michelle Phan brings a lot of stuff with her. I try to avoid bringing a lot of big bottles and containers so I stock up on travel sized cosmetics so that when I need them, I just get them from my stash.

I also like bringing sachets and things that I can easily discard so that I have a lighter luggage when I go home and more space for pasalubong and stuff that I bought. For my trip, here’s what I brought:

These are my toiletries. I have more in my other kit. This is the kit that my friend M gave me for Christmas.

Here’s my makeup:

From left to right, top to bottom.

Leopard Love palette, VS Concealer palette, Too Faced Fairy Edition palette, Estee Lauder palette, wedge sponge.

Etude House BB Cream, TBS mascara, MAC Girl Boy, Paul & Joe Foundation, Maybelline Gel Liner, Bobbi Brown Corrector.

Too Faced Eye Primer sample, Bobbi Brown eyeshadows which I use as eyebrow makeup, Sephora Lip Palette, Maybelline Baby Lips, Forever 21 Love & Beauty Lippy, Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler.

Kleenex Oil Control Film, Aranaz mirror, Benefit Coralista. I also brought my makeup brushes.

They all fit nicely in my Clinique travel bag:

I put the other toiletries on the other side of this bag.

I have a few more pieces of lotions and stuff that I brought that I was not able to take a photo of. I like having a complete vanity when I travel. Are you high maintenance when you travel or do you keep it simple?

Soft Luxe Staycations: Binondo Series - The Great Buddha, Curated Purchases from Eng Bee Tin, and Last Thoughts About Ramada

After buying a lot of stuff on the first floor, we headed upstairs to eat a light lunch. Mom was getting hungry. My son and I just ate, but we said that we will accompany her and will just order something light.

All About Eyes

Lately I’m finding myself obsessed with skin care products, prevention in particular. I'm not getting younger and nobody likes lines and wrinkles, right? I should have done this in my early twenties but those were hard times and we didn’t have enough to support our daily lives, let alone vanity splurges. So now, I’m on hyper mode. I did not place any expectations on this product. I’ve had it with products claiming they can do this and that. I just tried the product thinking that if it works then great, if not then I’ll just find a new one. I wasn’t expecting a dramatic change but 2 weeks into using this product, I noticed that my under eye area has become lighter. The lines are also not as deep as they were before I used this product. I stopped using the Garnier eye products because I’m allergic to them so that means I’m not using any whitening products for that area. I am truly impressed with this product. I didn’t take a before and after photo as I wasn’t expecting this at ...

Alone Time

My good friend Kitten and I were supposed to go out yesterday but she had some unexpected things come up. I needed to buy some stuff as I am packing for a trip and so I went alone. I actually enjoy going out alone as much as going out with girlfriends or MB. It gives me a chance to eat whatever I like to eat and explore new restos. It’s also nice to take my time when shopping. After paying my bills, I had a late lunch at Toast Box: I love Hainanese Chicken. I sometimes cook this dish but it’s too tedious so I settle for eating out.

It was swimming in blood when I pulled the meat apart so I had it changed. You know what Gordon Ramsay says, bloody chicken is poisonous. This is the second time I ate at Toast Box and in both times, the chicken was so bloody. After lunch, I started shopping. First stop was Beabi where I bought these: The Sakura thermos on...
