Today I’m sharing with you the items in my makeup bag that I absolutely must have! I’ll go ahead and tell you that while I do own some products in the way of eye and face palettes I’ve found over the last couple of years that I reach for those products very infrequently. My everyday makeup routine is all about skin, and of course my signature bold lip. My morning routine includes a thirty minute commute, and while I understand that’s not hugely significant…
