Makeup - What do you carry with you?

[Jenna1561]

Ladies, we have the thread on purses and who carrys one. Now what I would love to hear is what makeup do you carry with you in your purse. Right now I have the following.

Foundation, liquid
Compact
Blush
Mascara
Eyeliner
Brow Pencil
Eye Shadow
Lipstick
Lip Gloss

For me this is the bare minimum. I can be in drab mode and when an opportunity presents itself, I can do my face in a basic and neutral look with what I have. I know it sounds like a lot, but it all fits neatly in a makeup bag that I can carry in my purse. I don't do the club scene, so I don't really have a small purse and a need to minimize what I carry.

Is it too much? What does everyone else carry, and how does my list compare to a GG's list?

Good list. Add clear mascara and perfume plus multiple a few items by 2 or 3 (lip stick and eye shadow)...oh and I don't use liquid foundation, paste and no lip gloss. And BTW your way too organized!! I just throw mine in my purse with all the rest of the stuff. No bag!! More realistic that way. Hehehe

And my wife carries next to no makeup in hers...

Since I don't ever wear make-up en drab, I have no need to carry make-up or a purse en drab. But when I am Stephanie I just carry a pressed powder compact and the lipstick and lip gloss of the shade I am wearing. I have discovered that I never need to touch up eye make-up or foundation. Even when I eat and drink (or kiss, hehehe!) I hardly ever upset my lip liner. Usually it's just the lipstick that needs refreshing. Only the basics for this girl!!

1. Neutrogena liquid skin (beard area after 5 hours)

2. Lipstick

3. Wet wipes

4. Baby powder

That's it - eyeliner and mascara tends to stay put all day and night.

I carry a makeup case with me in my car along with extra make up in my purse...love that makeup....

As far as cosmetics, I carry only a lipstick. I've never had occasion to "touch up" face or eye makeup, so, no need to lug all that stuff around.
I do carry a hair brush in my purse. I also carry some nail glue in the car, as I have had nails come off.

I have always said a woman's purse becomes the extension of her car. What we can't get in our purse, you'll find in our cars.

Trudi and I finally gave up on swapping vehicles from time to time, as I literally have to "move out" of my vehicle if it goes into the shop for repairs, etc.

As far as the makeup bag (in the purse) is concerned, it ivaries but usually includes the following:

Lipliner
Lipstick
Lipgloss
Bare Essentials Mineral Veil (a loose powder form)
Medium Size Makeup Brush (the retractable kind, looks and performs like a very large lipstick)
Mirror
Purse Size Perfume
Hair Brush
Travel Size Sewing Kit
A Few Safety Pins
Super Glue
Clear Nail Polish (emergency repairs for annoying hose runs that start near the toes, etc.)
