I will go to Rome on Wednesday and for one time I don't want to overpack! So I've already wrote a list of things I have to bring with me. This is literally what I will stuff in my makeup bag. There are way too many lipsticks, but I need all of them! This time I've also decided that I only bring a tiny eyeshadow palette with me. At first glance it looks like there is still too much makeup. What do you think?

I've always loved the Photo Finish Foundation and 24h Eyeshadow Primer by Smashbox and they will always be my favorite! Especially the eyeshadow primer makes such a big different and it's the best I've ever tried. The Contour and Eyeshadow Palette were part of the christmas collection by Stila. However both have the perfect size for traveling and the quality is amazing! I still don't know how I feel about the Clinique Chubby Lash Mascara, but it won't smudge that's why I will take it on the trip with me. Foundation wise I will bring the Indefectible Sculpt Contouring Base Makeup and Contouring Palette by L'ORÈAL. Both products are pretty new and I am totally impressed by them. Lastly my blush by bareMinerals can't be missing. I will include a full product list including not mentioned products below.

If I go on holiday I wanna make sure that my makeup will last the whole day. So usually I only use products I know and love a lot. Also I don't want to spend a lot of time in the bathroom. I always recommed to write a list of products you use on a daily basis. That way you won't forget anything and also won't overpack. What's the kind of product you cant't miss?

L'ORÈAL just came out with their new contour line. After I've swatched the sculpt contouring base makeup and the contouring palette I couldn't resist! Both products are only available in three shades. You can choose between light, medium and dark. I think that the foundation should be available in more shades! 

The foundation is very blendable and it provides medium coverage with a matte finish. It looks quite powdery on the face and I really like that. However this foundation feels quite heavy on the face. It will last for around 8 hours before I start looking shiny and I have very oily skin. The shade matches my skin tone nearly perfectly, but it might be too dark for people with very fair skin. The sculpt contouring palette is nearly perfect! The packaging isn't my favorite, but the performance of this product is great! I love that both shades have a matte finish. They will blend perfectly and will last for around 8 hours. Both shadows won't smudge nor look cakey during the day.

I am extremely happy with both products! The base makeup will blend perfectly and gives me a flawless and natural look. I love that this foundation has a matte and powdery finish. The contouring palette is lovely, too. I love the texture and both shades are very blendable and long lasting. 

This product doesn't come with a mirror and the packaging is made out of transparent plastic. However I really like that all powders are separated from each other and I also love that the pans are big enough for all kinds of makeup brushes. The shades won't mix on accident and the patterns on the powders are kinda sweet.

The texture of these powders is very soft without any fallout. All shades are nicely pigmented and blendable. These powders are long lasting and won't fade a lot during the day. A big plus for me is that the shading powder has a matte finish and even the highlighter isn't overly shimmery. Only the blush contains some glitter, but it isn't that noticeable on my face.

Overall I really like this product. All powders are nicely pigmented and very blendable. It looks very natural on my face and it's great for every day. I was surprised that all shadows will last up to 8 hours on my oily skin and they won't look patchy during the day. Another big plus is the soft texture and that none of these powders have any fallout. However I wish that this product would be available in more than one shade. Have you tried this product and how do you like it?
