On The Go Makeup Bag
No matter how big or small your handbag is there's always the place for the essential touch-up items. C'mon, if you're anything like me, your handbag will be a bottomless pit. There is always room for something. As I'm often out and about in the city, rushing home to touch up my makeup isn't a realistic option for me. Bring in the on the go makeup bag, the miscellaneous beauty bits and bobs that I carry around with me to take care of touch ups, scent top ups and more...
My little makeup bag is from a shop called The Yellow Brick Road in Ponsonby.
Chanel Coco Mademoiselle perfume vial (almost empty) and Jo Malone Lime, Basil & Mandarin cologne (part of a Christmas gift set last year)- I'm not too sure why there's currently two perfumes in my makeup bag but sometimes when a scent wears off I like to apply a different one during the day. Mini perfumes and rollerball fragrances are great to have handy as they don't take up much handbag space. They're also great for holidays as well.
Benefit They're Real sample size mascara-This is my favourite mascara of the moment and this is perfect for touch ups during the day. This size isn't sold separately but Benefit are bringing out a new set with the full sized mascara and this one soon. I wish all makeup brands had miniature versions of their mascaras available.
The Body Shop blotting paper-Admittedly I only use these on the days where I forget to put a makeup brush in my bag but they are great if you just need to blot particularly shiny areas of the face. They aren't as effective as reapplying powder but if you are brushless or carrying a smaller bag then they get the job done.

What's In My Travel Makeup Bag
I really enjoyed doing my last "what's in my bag" post in January & I always love watching beauty vlogger's "what's in my makeup bag" videos on YouTube, in a non stalkerish way of course. I am staying with some of my extended family for a week & this is what I've packed in the way of makeup. Note this is more or less what I'm using on a daily basis this month as well but obviously I couldn't take everything with me, eyeshadow palettes & giant perfume bottles for example.

♥ Chanel La Ligne De Chanel Professional Eyeliner Duo #10 Noir Lamé.
♥ Nars Eyeshadow in Night Star to line the inner corners of my eyes.
♥ Jo Malone Basil, Lime & Mandarin Cologne mini size that was part of their 2012 Christmas Crackers.
♥ MAC Eyeshadow Duo in Satin Taupe. I'm not too sure what the matte brown colour is but I'm using it to fill in my brows at the moment.
♥ MAC Extra Dimension Eyeshadow in A Natural Flirt.
♥ Korres Lip Butter in Jasmine.

August Favourites.
So I thought about doing a haul post but I think those are more effective on YouTube. Instead I've decided to collate a list of the products I've been loving each month. Some may be completely new, some are ones I've rediscovered. Either way, I hope you like my August picks!
Let me know in the comments section if you use any of these products as I would love to hear your thoughts about them.

New to the beauty bazaar: MAC and Natio.
Last year I purchased far more nail polish than I'd care to admit to. This year it seems I'm obsessed with lip colours. Being pale is a blessing in this instance as I can wear pretty much any shade of red I buy and can wear bright colours too. Hooray for me!
Anyway, over the mid semester break I made a few beauty purchases. Here's what was in my haul:
