what hithers in my travel make up bag

ok first things first. I'm so excited to say that i've reached 50 followers on my blog! lol.  I know this may seem like a small number to most people, but it is enough to make it the highlight of my day :D! so i would like to say a special thank you to the 50 beautiful ladies that followed my blog and everyone else who took the precious time out of their day to stop by my blog and read my posts. i really appreciate it! :3  So i've decided to post something more interesting for today's post....a what's in my travel make up bag post!!  In less than a month, I will be going to Hong Kong and Taiwan for vacation (uber excited sdkfjsldfjlssjfsdhl!!!) so i figured this would be a good time to do a post on this topic.  I know it is still super early to pack my travel make up bag, but i know i will be very busy in the next couple of weeks with school and work that i won't have time to do this post.  Also, this topic has always been one of my favorite things to read on other people's blogs, or video topic to watch on youtube!  It's always interesting to know what beauty staples are kept in other girls make up bags.  Ok, i'll stop rambling now, let's get onto the good stuff :D
This is what i use to carry all my make up when i go on trips. (i keep all my toiletries and skin care products in most likely just a ziploc bag lol.)  I got this hot pink waffle weave bag from an online store glitzy glam, that is owned by 2 beauty gurus on youtube- Elle and Blair Fowler. a.k.a allthatglitters21 and juicystar07.  They talked about these in one of their videos and i just had to check them out.  They're so cute and u get to customize the color of the bag and even the ribbon on the side :D  and the best part is u can add a small text on front of the bag to make it even more personal! in this case, i of course added my own name. (yes i do have an actual name, i'm not actually just called miss6 haha)

This bag can actually carry a lot of stuff, all these things only fill up half of the bag, but i plan to do a bit more shopping in hong kong and taiwan,  so i'm gonna leave a bit of extra room in there >:D  u may notice that my cell phone is also part of the picture, i know its not a make up item, but i just wanna include it in part of the picture cuz my cell phone case just happens to TOTALLY match the make up bag.  I seriously really didn't intend to make them so matchy matchy lol~

  4. Your makeup bag is so cute! And it's more spacious than it looks - i love it when makeup bags are like that, cus then when other ppl look at it - it doesn't seem like u're something crazy makeup maniac XD hahaha. I love your post! And those daiso lashes look great, I think i'll be picking up that style next time i go there, I need to stock up on lashes :P

    1. thanks! yea this bag does a great job of hiding the fact that we r crazy make up junkies haha~ and the daiso lashes are not bad actually, just not as flexible on the lash band, but bending it before applying can pretty much solve the problem :D

  10. Thanks for following my blog, I'm now following you too :) Your travel makeup bag is so cute... and it looks like it carries so much stuff. I can't believe it's only half full with all that in there! Where did you get your brush roll/pouch from? I feel like I should invest in one but have just never gotten around to it.

  21. Love your blog and i kinda like those lip butters too but man when i opened it, i was kind of disappointed at how much product there actually was in there! And i totally agree with all your make up choices too!

    I read your most recent post and didn't feel like it was appropriate for me to comment on that one... so I'll leave it here. Everyone says, the new will come around :) and I totally think its true and it worked out for me when i experienced something similar... or worse. From the voice on this blog, you have a great personality. I'm sure something positive will come your way!

    Keep it up & followed :)
