I call these my “non-negotiables,” and I go through them faster than everything else: concealer, mascara, brow pencil/gel, black or brown liner for tightlining, and bronzer.

Lip balm, nude lipsticks and glosses are up there, too, as are face tint, powder, blush and neutral (mostly beige and brown) eyeshadows, to a lesser degree.

OK…from the look of it, I’m using everything in my bag pretty regularly, LOL!

But I swear, there are things in there that I like to have with me, but I hardly ever touch, like lip liner, liquid liner, gel liner, and deeper lipsticks and glosses (dark browns, purples, burgundies, reds).

I haven’t been wearing highlighter whatsoever lately, but I go through phases with it. in some cases I’ll go theret… I think it’s fun to transform yourself into a version you don’t see daily, but it’s not one of the first things I’d get if I were rushing out the door because it isn’t forgiving.

On that note, I can’t tell you how numerous times I’ve been pressed for time and thought, “Sure, I can pull off black liquid liner, no problem.”

In those situations, though, it’s never a good idea, LOL! With liquid liner, whatever can go wrong, will go wrong IMO, so best not chance it when rushing.

So I ask you, of all the charm products in your makeup bag, which do you use the most, and which do you use the least? Inquiring minds want to know.
