Would you rather: Makeup edition!



So I was thinking maybe we could get to know each other a little better and that makes me think, TAG post. Emily Eddington -here- ironically posted this today and well, that made the choosing really easy. So I hope you enjoy! 



1. Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lip glosses or lose all of your palettes and eyeshadows?
As I may not have a ton of makeup, I do have a lot. I feel like If I lost my mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lip glosses, a good 3/4 of it would be gone. So I'd lose the palettes and eyeshadows only because you can still look just as done up with the other lot. 

2. Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?
Chop it all off, because it'll grow back. It may take years, but I'll get it back. Never cutting it again seems like it would just end horribly for me because it wouldn't go anywhere.

What's in my makeup bag!

Hello adventurers! Today's post is a very popular video on youtube, and I have actually filmed one myself and that can be found here, but that is old and here's an updated one! I got a new makeup bag as a gift with purchase from benefit if you purchased any of the Ultra Plush lip glosses. As you can see it can hold a lot of stuff. In no particular order:

Victoria's secret mini lipgloss in Innocent( dupe for NARS turkish delight post here)
Revlon Colorstay Overtime mascara
Maybelline Great Lash clear mascara (brow gel)
Neutrogena Healthy Skin brightening eye perfecter spf 25
MAC lipstick in Lovelorn
Benefit Ultra plush lip gloss in Sugarbomb
E.l.f eyelid primer
Maybelline the Mega Plush volum' express mascara
NARS Turkish delight

Perfumes(Rollerball):
Vera Wang Princess
MAC Turquatic
Viva La Juicy--also came with a lipgloss on the other end which is just absolutely horrible!
Marc Jacobs Daisy




I know you may be thinking "why does she carry so much makeup on her?" It's because I do my makeup from this bag every morning and if I use a different product I just throw it in there. I don't use all of this every day by any means. It's a little look into my favorite products!

Have you done a post like this? Leave it down below for me to check out!

Would you like a review on any of these products?
