I ask this question periodically because I get a weird thrill out of finding out what people lug around with them throughout their day.
Strange? Perhaps, but c’est la vie! 🙂
Lately I’ve been traveling surprisingly light, but I think that’s because I just switched purses and haven’t had time to recruit my usual army of random lip glosses, powders and cans of cat food (with gravy, of course).
I’m currently toting five things from the makeup department…
- MAC Careblend Pressed Powder in Medium Dark
- MAC Lipglass in Evolution Revolution
- MAC Cremesheen Glass in Deelight
- MAC Lip Pencil in Subculture
- Lancome Yayoi Kusama Juicy Tube in Dot Apricot
How about you? What makeup do you have in your purse right now?
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
Naj says
I usually carry my pressed powder foundation, a clear lipbalm, a tinted lipbalm, and the lipstick I’m using for the day. Some days I’ll just have the lipbalm.
Karen says
You’re so streamlined, Naj!
Maygan says
Right now I have MAC oyster girl (feeling old school!) DG #6 lipliner, Stila illumination powder!
Karen says
Ahhh, Oyster Girl! Totally old school!
Denise says
I have Majolica Majorca Skin Remaker Pore Cover, Pressed Pore Cover, Lip Ice Sheer Color, Wet n WIld Soeed Gloss and a Shu Uemura eyelash curler, in a gold, glittery make up pouch 🙂
Karen says
I love that you travel with your Shu Uemura curler!
hillary says

Hope everyone is having a great day!!
Karen says
I hope you’re having a great day too, Paigest! 🙂
Nina says
i have mac blot powder, glamour for all lipglass, cortisone cream, and a stella rollerball. 🙂
Karen says
It’s funny, I always think of you when I bust out the Stella: “This is Nina’s scent!” 🙂
Nina says
yay! 🙂
NeenaJ says
It must be a “Nina/Neena” thing – Stella is my scent, too! LOL!
Fieran says
I currently have MAC’s Lip Conditioner, NARS Dolce Vita lipstick, MAC’s Careblend Pressed Powder in Dark, MAC’s Blot Powder in Dark and a small fluffy kabuki brush.
Karen says
Hi Fieran,
GURL, you know NARS Dolce Vita lipstick is my jam, right? I like to think of it as my NARS gateway product, LOL! Do you have NARS Amour blush? It looks fantastic w/Dolce Vita.
Fieran says
Aww I recently got the bf to pick up Dolce Vita blush and lipstick in April. Then on his recent trip, I asked for Taos. Now you’re making me want to hunt for Amour. I shall swatch it if and when I get a chance 🙂
In love with Dolce Vita lipstick though, it’s so pleasant and subtle. Goes great with my colourful eyeshadow looks.
Vijaya says
My bag’s empty except for lip balm and blotters! =D
Karen says
You’re so streamlined!
Jae says
I just emptied out my work purse so some of my “regular” items didn’t make it back in this morning…but, this is what i’m toting around…

Hi Jae,
Don’t you just love Hibiscus? 🙂
Jae says
Girrrrl, yes i do! At first I thought, “another coral lippie? do i really need one?” then i tried it on and was like, ‘oh yeah, gotta get it.’ lol!
Shannon says
I have 4 different types of Neutrogena lip products (Moistureshine lip soother in Shine, Revitalizing lip balm in Healthy Blush, Moistureshine soothing lipsheer in Shimmering Blush, and moistureshine lipstick in Anything Rose), Some honey/mint flavored lip balm, Revlon lipstick in Teak Rose, Stila gloss in Kitten… I think that’s it for lip products, ha 🙂 I also have a sample-size can of L’oreal hairspray, “just in case”… I never use it, though!
Karen says
I’ve actually found myself in several situations needing a can of hairspray! It never hurts to be prepared.

Arianne says
Ooh, gurl, you will LOVE Joe Fresh. And the prices! Insane!
Their matte lipstick line ($6) is amazing. Fuchsia is a must have.
They have really cute nail polish colours that are 3 for $10.
The lip stains are also very good.
They have some eye shadows too. Take a look at Peacock for an awesome bright teal!
Hmm… honestly I’d just play with everything if I were you. Oh, and the clothes! Check out the clothes. Their swimsuits are usually super cute. Enjoy!
Raven says
I usually carry an assortment of lip products through the day, cuz I like to change up my lip color throughout the day. So there’s 3 lipglasses, 2 lipsticks and a TON of Burts Bees lipbalms.
Black eyeliner to line my upper water line ALWAYS!!
2 blushes (brush included)
of course 3 rollerball perfumes
boys deoderant (works better on me than girls stuff!)
and some yes to cucumber makeup wipes for freshenin up 🙂
does dental floss count?…
Karen says
Dental floss totally counts. My friends make fun of me because I always have it with me, but YOU NEVER KNOW. I can’t stand having food stuck between my teeth. Drives me nuts!
Nina says
I get that same weird thrill too, lol 😀 Right now I have my MAC Blot Powder, La Roche Posay Ceralip lipbalm, MAC Viva Glam Cyndi Lipglass and a Vichy hand cream (man it’s the next best thing!) with me =)
Karen says
Hi Nina,

PLUS some other stuff I always carry around because I would like to finish it and I try to use it every day:

an Estee Lauder brown eye pencil
an extremely old Deborah teal eye pencil (I’m thinking 1991… auugh!!!)

Normally I would carry also… Alright, alright, I will not stretch your patience any further 🙂
Karen says
GURL. Are we purse twins or something? Usually I carry a ton of stuff too, so I totally understand why you *must* have all these things in your purse. 🙂
meibaola says
Thank you sista!
Melissa says
Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Bonheur
Guerlain Rouge Automatique in Guet-Apens
MAC Blot Powder in Light
Urban Decay 24/7 concealor pen in the lightest shade (can’t remember the name exactly!)
Cetaphil lotion – I got a little sample of an awful moisturizer from Sephora so emptied that plastic container and filled it with Cetaphil!
Karen says
Ooh, I’m curious to know what moisturizer sample you got.
You can never go wrong with Cetaphil…
Melissa says
The brand was Clickr. Funny, looking at Sephora’s website they actually have pretty good reviews. Guess it just didn’t agree with my skin!
Completely unrelated, but I just got an iphone and you totally inspired me to get a Kate Spade case! I’ve always loved polka dots, and Verizon’s selection was pretty boring. Works out perfectly for me!
Amanda says
Nars lipgloss in Foul Play, Cover Girl pressed powder, MAC lipsticks in Ravishing, Shy Girl, Creme Cup, Angel, Blankety, and Hot Gossip.

Maybelline white stay UV Compact in Natural
Nivea tinted lip balm in Pomegranate
Lipstick that I would be wearing on the day [Revlon Long stay mostly, so lesser touch ups :)]

Trisha says
This is going to sound terrible, but I don’t have ANY makeup in my purse. It’s not that my purse is too small or anything. It’s nice and big. But I just haven’t gotten around to it. I keeping MEANING to put together a small makeup bag.
I really should get on that.
Instant Karma says
I lug way too much crap around in my purse! On top of carrying my wallet, phone, and a couple pens, my handbag is a portable pharmacy. I have Aquaphor (works as a lip balm, moisturizer and blister block), hand cream (fragrance-free so it can work on my face, too), hand sanitizer, dental floss, eye drops, tampons, a couple bandaids, and the OTC trifecta of Zyrtec-Aleve-Pepto Bismol. I’ve got everything I need for an emergency save for a scalpel and a bag of O -!
As for makeup, I have
– Bright red lipstick that can be layered or applied sheerly. It works no matter where I am or what time it is!
– Kiehls lip balm with SPF
– Alison Raffaele spot concealer (grr zits)
– TimeBalm concealer in light/medium to combat my under eye area’s demon circles
– Boots highlighter pen. Not only is it much cheaper than Touche Eclat, it’s much better. Unlike Touche Eclat, the brush doesn’t grow mildew after a few months and the product is noticeably more pigmented.
– Clinique double ended eye pencil. It has a light brown brown pencil on one end and a light pink highlight on the other!
Sometimes I keep a tiny UD 24/7 pencil in there, too, but not right now. Considering how much I have in there, I feel like I should eliminate whatever products I can to keep the rest from breeding or something, lol.
Instant Karma says
Er, I meant a light brown BROW pencil. A light brown brown pencil would be pretty redundant.
Kim says
I have a tube of Superbalm in raspberry and a tube of Clinque lipstick (Just Gorgeous). I also have a nail board, buffer and cuticle oil (but those don’t really count as makeup). Though, none of these items is doing me any good since my purse is at home and I’m at work. HAHA! I do have a sparkly, berry gloss in my car. I won that from my favorite blog when I first started reading it. 🙂 Normally, I have a lip balm or gloss in every jacket pocket and in my car. Since I hate lugging a purse, this way I’ll at least have a good chance of finding lip relief while I’m out and about.
Melissa says
MAC Surf Baby! Refined Golden Bronzer/Good Lovin’ lipglass/Strange Potion lipglass, MAC Plastique lipstick, NARS “O” lipgloss and blush, NARS Copacabana Multiple, MUFE HD Powder and TKB Micas in Satin Orange Gold and Travel to Venus ( just came in the mail!!).
Hyzenthlay says
Between my desk at work (where I stash my things for the day so I’m not digging through my purse in front of my kids) and my purse, I have Lollia Breath Hand Creme, Rose Salve, Smashbox O-Gloss Gold, a tester of some Chanel serum that smells incredible and I’m using on a couple of patches of eczema I got from ExfoliKate, hydrocortisone cream (eczema, again), Chanel Gardenia l/s, Chanel Pink Peony l/g, and Chanel Aurore l/g. I wore Gardenia and Pink Peony yesterday and forgot to take them out 🙂 I often end up doing that, and have found up to 20 different lip items in my purse at the end of the week! I am absolutely loving the Chanel stuff I bought from the Summer collection. Good grief, their new foundation is awesome 🙂 But, I’m not carrying it with me! Oh, and I just saw I have a Sephora lip gloss, but I’m not sure what color. I’m wondering, Aurore looks kinda like what I think EvoRevo will look like. Are they at all similar? Regardless, I intend to order several EvoRevos when they are available, and think about you and your words of strength!
Hyzenthlay says
Nuts, and I forgot that I’ve got Jo Malone Sakura Cherry Blossom perfume, too. Sheesh, it seems like my purse is nothing BUT beauty products as I read this!

– MAC Lychee Luxe Lipglass
– ELF “Natural Nymph” Lipstick
I never realized how much MAC I had in there!
Kate & Zena says
Um, do you really want to know?
Okay, but I’m warning you, it isn’t pretty.
1. Clinique lipstick/lipgloss duo in 51 Think Bronze (different lipstick end) and 10 Air Kiss (long last gloss wear SPF 15) . The lipgloss end has a pretty big dent from use and I’ve only had it for two weeks…what? I’m a lipgloss person!
2. Neutrogena Norwegian Formula hand cream fragrance free (it qualifies in my book as makeup)
3. Sample mascara wands that I filched from Ulta when I got my brows done yesterday. Those things come in handy! Forgot to put them away!
4. Nivea A Kiss of Smoothness SPF 4
5. Avon glazewear shine lipgloss in sparkling pink (that I got from MBB!!!! You don’t want to know how much I wear this color.)
6. Benefit Nice Knickers
7. Benefit Jing-a-ling
8.Stila lip glaze in Fruit Punch
9. Stila lip glaze in Cotton Candy
10. Stila lip glaze in Grapefruit
11. Clearasil Adult Tinted Treatment Cream sulfur resorcinol acne medication (for the “AHHH! PIMPLE” moments)
12. Palladio Rice Paper oil-absorbing blotting tissues in translucent (which you would have to pry out of my cold, stiff dead hands to get a hold of because I rely on these all summer. I love them THAT much. The Holy Grail of oil absorption, I kid you not.)
Um, I think that’s it (unless you count my sunglasses, bobby pins, hair ties, nail file, purell, contact solution, contact lens reweter, inhaler…..etc. My purse is a pharmacy just about.) I told you it wasn’t particularly pretty! It’s pretty scary!
Caroline says
Sadly, I only carry lipgloss or lipbalm in my bags. I have a work bag, diaper bag and a small wristlet. Each has similar lipgloss colors but different brands. I have a small makeup bag in my car that has pressed powder, MAC l/s Viva Glam VI, Buxom Lipgloss in Dolly, Sephora Nude lipgloss Bobbie Brown lipgloss in Tea Time (discontinued). I think I will need to get MAC Hibiscus. I’m sold.

I don’t carry makeup, really. I don’t even have a mirror in my purse. I do carry lip stuff, because it’s annoying when they get dry. So in this little pouch in my purse, I’ve currently got a Burt’s Bees tube, two Softlips (Sugar & Spice and Pomegranate), Jack Black lip balm in Lemon Chamomile, a sample UD lip junkie in Midnight Cowboy, and a full size UD Pocket Rocket in Doug.
CynthiaCCC says
I don’t carry a whole kit with me, it’s usually just an accumulation of whatever lipsticks or gloss I’ve worn since the last time I bothered to put them back in the makeup drawer (which, depending, can be just a few or A LOT), and occasionally whatever other makeup I throw in my bag when I’m dashing out the door and planning to put it on when I get to campus. So let’s see…. [pause while CCC rummages through bag]: MAC Lipglass in Lychee Luxe (it’s YOUR fault, Karen, that I caved and bought this. love it, though.), Aveda lipstick in Luna, CO Bigelow Cinnamint Lip Shine, and Crazy Rumors Bubble Gum Lip Balm (very cool cruelty-free and vegan company). Oh, and because I didn’t finish my manicure yesterday morning, a bottle of Seche Vite! (Really should get that out of there, probably.)
So that’s what’s in my bag. Hope it made you laugh! 🙂

I like to keep my makeup minimal, so I keep a little makeup bag that I carry in my purse (which my girlfriend calls my suitcase), and in that bag I have my bareminerals foundation, a bronzer, my concealer and face brush, Revlon grow luscious mascara, and chapstick. Plus a few lipglosses lying around the bottom of my purse somewhere. Also, whenever I decide to wear more eyemakeup than usual or I feel like wearing some lipstick, I carry that in my makeupbag as well, just in case I need some touchups.
Makeup Artist Brisbane says
I love Napoleon Perdis Makeup and MAC. I always carry my all time favorite foundation which is the Napoleon Stick foundation. This versatile foundation Stick doubles up as a concealer and is a must have. I also love MAC lipsticks which I always have with me.
