What's in my makeup bag!

This is an updated "what's in my makeup bag" post, which is one my favourite kind of posts to do and read on other blogs. I last did one in March (see here), and looking back, most of my day to day items have changed.

This is what I keep in my makeup bag at the moment:

Right, a breakdown of the products...


The makeup bag was a gift from my aunt, and I just think it's really pretty :)

The face products:

MAC mineralize blush in Warm Soul, Boiing concealer in 01, Benefit Stay Don't Stray, Stila blush in Bud, NARS cream blush in Penny Lane, MAC blush in The Perfect Cheek

The eye products:

Buxom eyeshadow in Pug, MAC Opulash mascara, Stila smudge pot in Black Cat, NARS soft touch shadow pencil in Goddess, YSL Volume Effet Faux Cils mascara

Updated makeup storage using my new MUJI drawers!

I owe you all a HUGE thank you for your tips on my Blogger Help post the other day.

A lot of people told me to go and look at the MUJI website, and sure enough there they were, the storage drawers that I have been hunting for!

I tracked down the shop (in the Trafford Centre, for those of you living near Manchester)

and purchased a set of 4 double drawers (£7.95 each).

I am SO happy with them, but of course I waaaaaaaay underestimated the amount of drawers I need to house all of my makeup, so I need to take another trip to MUJI and buy some more soon :)

Anyway, for now I am using the clear drawers for my everyday/go-to makeup of the moment,
as it is so easy to find and organise.

Some pictures:

Now I just need to buy drawers enough to store all of my blushes, which are still kept in the old box...

And the remaining face and eye products that I don't normally use on an everyday basis...

I will probably need another 5-6 double drawers :D

How do you store your makeup?
