What’s In Your Makeup Bag: Summer Edition

I love to sneak peeks into other people’s Makeup Bags and see what’s what. Some of my friends are minimalists—just a mascara, sunscreen and carmex—and yet others are, well, DANEEN.

Take a look at this gigantuan Makeup Bag of my hilarious friend Daneen from Spoiled Pretty:

These photos are from February when Daneen and I hung out during Fashion Week along with GLAMber and Julia, who we conferenced in via telephone because she HAD TO WORK and couldn’t make it to New York. (I’m not even kidding when I say that we hung out in the hotel room for hours with Julia’s voice projecting from my cell phone as if she were Charlie.)

A beauty maximalist like Daneen does not go to New York Fashion Week without an arsenal of beauty products with which to make us all jealous. (I should also mention here that this is Daneen’s version of ‘packing light’):

And because I’m so nosy when it comes to Makeup Bags, I asked my Twitter and Facebook friends what their must-have summer Makeup Bag items are and here’s what they said:

@bubblegarm fix+! (Editor’s note: As in MAC Fix+, a cult-fave aqua-spritz that adds radiance and finishes makeup)

@makeovermomma Mineral foundation (love it year round) and non-oily facial sunscreen…. lots and lots of sunscreen!

@ASamantha MAC Fix+ (makes the summer bearable for your skin!) Prr lipglass, a #183 buffer brush, & Nars Orgasm blush

@pinkchickblend Shimmer eyeshadow…DEFINATELY the sun brings it out more!

@kickingcouture Mac’s moon river blush, l’oreal eyeliner and mac’s angel lipstick! i cant seem to get onto ur website? it says the server is down (Editor’s note: You have NO IDEA! Makeup Bag was down for most of the weekend and then some. I finally revived her yesterday!)

@spoiledpretty Fresh Citron de Vigne Eau de Parfum. Perfect summer scent.

@thebeautygirl Murad Waterproof Sunblock. i wear this year round– it keeps my skin protected, looking healthy & doesn’t have a sunscreen smell

@misswhoeveryouare Lancome Juicy Tube lipgloss! I don’t go anywhere without it. I love Pretty by Elizabth Arden for this summer, too!

@newlyweddedwife Hello Flawless and Prescriptives Exhilarating gloss in guava!

@BDrysdale Maybelline (I think) mineral powder makep. It’s low-maintenance and gives great coverage.

Felicia Walker Benson Blemish concealer :( and SPF 30 before heading out!

Kim Justice Shiseido Pureness Matifying Stick
