So my attempt at packing light went pretty much out the window during this trip, I did fully intend to pack light and my initial packing list was light! But as I started actually placing each product into my bag, I found a few other random items make its way in “just in case”. However if I was honest with you, I’m probably using about 80% of the products daily, which isn’t too bad, so I’ll let myself off the hook 😉
Late last year I made a video on what was in my travel makeup bag, so I opted for a blog post instead this round (I might film a new one later this year as I have a bit more travel coming up). I’ve since changed the bag I used to a clear one. I much prefer this one because it makes it so much easier to see what I’ve packed and to find products. No more digging around for that eyeliner pencil.

wow, nice~ might have wanted to leave some space so you could buy more stuff, but maybe this is a good thing. you won’t be able to buy as many palettes that you don’t need~
(jokes u need them ALL 8D)
ooh can you do a review of the mini shu uemura eyelash curler?
i was considering getting it when they lowered the price, but i felt like the original did a better job overall. it still can’t curl my outer corner lashes though, and i was wondering whether the mini would provide a better effect, especially since it was the first time i’d curled my lashes.
That’s true (but that won’t stop my from buying more neutral palettes….)
I can tell you now that I personally don’t like it, I dunno I think it’s cause the handle is smaller so it’s not as easy to use (not comfortable), and I find the curler a bit… tight? It’s difficult to use in my opinion and so I much much prefer the original larger size. Admittedly this is great at getting those lashes on the outer and inner corner though. I think a comparison review is in order 🙂
