What's in my... Makeup Bag

I would just like to let you all know that I am packing for a 12 day trip, so for some of you this might not be enough, for some it may be to much. I don't wear all of this every single day, but I do like options. I would also like you to know that we are going to be driving everywhere on this vacation, so to an extent I don't have to worry about how much I pack or the sizes of my products.

My Brush Roll

This is the pocket on the right side of the bag. In here I keep my Eyebrow/Eyelash Brush and my Face Brushes, except for my kabuki brush which will probably be in my travel makeup bag in my purse (click here if you want to see what is in my travel makeup bag!). There is a flap above that I will fold down to protect my brushes.

This is the middle pocket that zips up, and is also detachable. In here I keep all of my Eye Brushes, and all of my Pencil Eyeliners so I will have them at easy access. I am going to tape all of the lids closed on my pencil eyeliners so they dont fall off and ruin everything else.

This is the pocket on the left and it also zips up. In here I just keep some different tools like an Eyelash Curler, Tweezers, and an Eyeliner Sharpener.

And here is the Brush Roll all rolled up and ready to pack!

The Actual Makeup Bag
Here is the picture from the beginning again. On the left I try to stack the flat powders and things like that. Right beside that my Foundation Powder fits perfectly. Any Liquids I put in a  plastic sandwich bag in case they leak. Everything else is just kind of haphazardly piled on top :)

And this is the finished bag! I just put my Brush Roll on top of all the makeup to cushion it and then zip it all up!
And that's it!

Homemade Beauty... Banana Sugar Body Scrub

You will need... 1 ripe banana 3 tablespoons granulated sugar ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract or your favorite essential oil (optional) Smash ingredients together with a fork into a chunky goop, but don't over-mash or it will become too thin to use. If you want a banana scrub for your face, reserve some of the banana and mash it separately without sugar. In the shower, pat the sugar mixture and gently massage over your body. For your face, gently massage plain banana there, avoiding the eye area. Rinse off with warm water. Credit to  http://www.treehugger.com/organic-beauty/8-homemade-salt-and-sugar-body-scrubs.html

How to Clean Your Makeup Brushes

So you could buy the expensive (and pointless) makeup brush cleaner from insanely expensive makeup companies (MAC!), oooooor you can make your own! :) You will need: dish soap or  Johnson's Baby Shampoo olive oil a plate water  paper towels or a dish towel  dirty, dirty, DIRTY makeup brushes The soap is going to remove the bacteria, grease, and color left on your brushes while the olive oil helps to condition the brush bristles and keep them from drying out. First , add equal parts of the oil and soap onto a plate. Start with about a teaspoon of each, then add more as you go along, if needed.  Next , swirl your dirty brush in the mixture. You will see all the leftover makeup start to flush itself out of the brush.  After you’ve swirled it around for 10 seconds or so, rinse the brush in lukewarm water to get all of the soap out. Continue to rinse until the water runs clear and the brush is no longer soapy. **Make sure not t...
