This is a Collab with Emily from The Unfazed Millennial. She is a fitness, fashion,
DIY and lifestyle blogger. If you’re looking for some fitness inspo, she’s your
girl! Oh and did I mention she is a model too? Yea superwoman vibes right
there. I love seeing what other women keep in their bags and being the girly
girl that I am I really enjoyed working on this. We are sharing our Top 5
must-have beauty items.
EMILY'S TOP 5
1. Hater blockers:
😂 yes, I said it. I can't go anywhere without these babies. This
particular pair is from Cotton On. Simple, cute and oh so stylish!
2. MAC Mineralize
Skin Finish: Somedays, I just leave the house with no face on, as soon as I
change my mind and want to put in an effort, this powder comes to the rescue!
3. Mascara: One
of my best friends thinks its a little silly that I always carry a tube around
but I can't be without it. Bare face with mascara any day over just a
bare face. For as long as I can remember, Maybelline has been my go-to brand
for mascara, yes I know there are plenty of other great ones out there. But
Maybelline has always been THE ONE for me, and I hoard their empty mascara
tubes, they are just so funky and colorful!
4. Perfume: This
lovely soft beauty was a Christmas prezzie from bae, I must admit I was a
little skeptical when I first took a whiff of it but upon wearing it, I
immediately fell in love! I can't say any more about this Elie Saab Le Parfum -
get to your nearest store and sniff it for yourself! Thank me later. 😏😉
5. Lip Balm: Five
words: Nobody likes chapped lips babygirl.

MY TOP 5
1. Tools (Mascara
& Eyebrow Pencil): I don't wear makeup, when i do its just mineraliser
and lipstick so i try to put some effort on my eyes. I ensure they are in shape
and filled up using an eyebrow pencil and then wear Mascara and sometimes
eyeliner too. This little eye kit has saved me so many times, it always
transforms my look from being too basic.
2. Lip Balm: Our
lips are a part of the face, one of the first features we are identified by and
so it is important to keep my lips moisturised throughout the day. If you get a
chance to stop by my blog you will realise i am a lover of natural products,
and that is why this is one of my repeated purchases. This particular Himalaya
lip balm contains wheat germ and carrot seed oil which help to nourish and
prevent dry, chapped lips.
3. Hand and Nail
Cream: The hand cream i am using now is by Clicks, South Africa and it has
so much sentimental value to me. I got it from my late grandmother’s handbag
(sobs). I love the pomegranate smell which is not too sweet but still feminine
and matured. Ladies our faces may still be youthful but our hands and feet will
in most cases always reveal the real age and hence the importance of keeping
them moisturised. Throughout the day you visit the bathroom and wash your hands
(well i hope you do wash them LOL) so it is important to keep a hand lotion
with you to constantly moisturise the hands.
4. Perfume: The
current perfume in my purse is Decadence by Marc Jacobs. It is the smallest of
my perfume bottles so fits perfectly in all my hand bags. Writing this post
just made me realise i need to invest in a miniature perfume size.
5. Tissue &
Face Blotting Paper: I have really oily skin so i always need to have face
blotting paper to wipe my face throughout the day. And of course which lady
would go out without tissue?
You’re probably thinking.. that’s it? Yes! I I am a minimalist. What beauty products do you have in your bag
right now? Looking forward to reading all about it in the comments. Oh and please be sure to check out Emily's post here.
