10 THINGS A MAKEUP ARTIST ALWAYS CARRIES AROUND

that are going to make your life a whole lot better

Makeup artists usually attend photo shoots with suitcases filled with a huge collection of beauty products. But when they’re on the move, they ditch the suitcases and leave the house with a smaller bag filled with essentials they can’t live without. And these essentials just so happen to be the exact ten things your own makeup bag can’t do without.

1. Primer

A primer is an absolute must in any makeup bag. It turns your face into a canvas that allows your makeup to stay put for an entire day. And primers aren’t just primers; high end brands also nurture the skin and make your face feel soft as satin. Don’t have any foundation? Don’t worry, a primer will give you skin a smooth complexion.

2. Eyeliner

A stroke of black liner right on the tip of your eye lid is going to make your eyes look bigger and your lashes more bold.

3. Mascara

This one goes without saying. It opens up your eyes and highlights you look.

4. Eyebrow pencil

Eyebrows are one, if not the, most important feature of your face and hugely affect your overall look – so it’s important to keep them in good shape and take your time doing so.

5. Magic mist

Whether you’ve got oily or dry skin; all women need a moisturizing mist. Most women tend to only use it in the morning to fix their look  but it is one of those products you should actually be using throughout the day. When the clock strikes 4, your skin often has dull complexion. If you spray a little mist, your skin will be re-hydrated. Problem solved. It works wonders and it’s highly refreshing.

6. Highlighter

A highlighter is the easiest way to create some dimension in your face. It also accentuates your best facial features, so it’s a win-win. Use it on your cheeks, the inner corners of your eyes and last but not least, on your Cupid’s Bow.

7. Bronzer

Bronzers work well for everyone – whether you’re very pale or you wear a lot of makeup. You can recreate every season of the year on your face when you use it, and it’ll give you that year round natural healthy glow.

8. Some color for on your lips

If you’re rushed for time in the morning, all you really need before you leave your front door is your lipstick. Choose a clear color. It’ll give you a nice glow as well as liven up the rest of your face.

9. Concealer

Bet I had you thinking; where the heck is the concealer? Obviously you need this in your makeup bag at all times. There are a ton of different ways you can use this product and it helps you get rid of dark circles, blemishes, ugly spots, and everything else you want to hide. In most cases you don’t even need foundation, all you need is concealer.

10.  A mirror

Not entirely unimportant. You won’t have to depend on badly lit bathroom and changing room mirrors. Gone are the days you had mascara running down your face and the wrong shade of foundation.
