Are you doubting that you have something missing in your Make Bag? Not a problem - Read Ahead!
1. Primer: Those who care about how much their makeup would last during the day, are never caught without a primer. Moreover, a primer prevent makeup from getting into skin pores and clogging them. Keep your skin protected...Use a primer!
2. Concealer: There a different colours of concealers some of which are neutral, pink, green, purple, yellow and orange. Indeed, for an everyday look one might not have the time to use each colour correctly. Instead, a neutral colour should be used. For a quicker, better skin always use a neutral coloured concealer!


3. Foundation: Having such a variety of foundations to choose from make it harder for a person to choose what is right. Indeed, the most important thing when choosing a foundation should be that of finding the best foundation for your skin type and not that it is just like your best friend's.
Moreover, choosing a daily foundation does not mean replacing sun screen. As stated by the esthetician Renee Rouleau, a foundation with SPF is necessary due to the sun being the skin's worst enemy.
Last but not least, a daily foundation should match your skin tone perfectly as well as looks natural as possible. Do not forget, we are going to work, to school or maybe run an errand....Not going to the Prom!
4. Foundation Powder: Foundation Powders are a must have. These can be used as a finish to a liquid foundation or else by itself.
Using this as a finish, will leave the skin with a perfect matte result. Indeed, this also acts as a barrier against excess oil.
Here, one has to be careful to put the right amount since adding too much powder will leave the skin with indents and lines.

5. Bronzer: A bronzer becomes handy especially when your foundation seems to be lightly coloured.
Moreover, a bronzer helps to bring out a more defined look.
Not all people love having a bronzer in their pocket. However, I guess it'd better be there for a rainy day!
6. Eyebrow Gel/ Pencil: If you try it once you will never be caught without it ever again! Having perfectly shaped eyebrows might be a happy day for you and for those around you! #eyebrowsonfleek

7. Natural Eyeshadow Palette: This might be a debatable object in a daily makeup bag. Indeed, there are those who agree that an everyday look should be less time consuming while others still do not go out without eyeshadow.

Although this object depends on the person's likes, one must admit that some day or another one will wake up early because of a nightmare or a dream...So might as well have it in your bag just incase you become inspired or you just happen to have some time to spare...
8. Eyeliner: Whether on the upper lid or on the water line, a little bit of eyeliner does not hurt.

9. Mascara: What would we do without mascara? Mascara is what gives the eye definition as well as a bashful look. If you do not want to put anything in your makeup bag, do not abandon this useful item!

10. Natural Blusher: What's better than having a healthy look? A natural blusher is the trick of a blushed healthy cheek. Do not forget to smile! That's what completes a healthy image.
11. Highlighter: What about a little bling bling? A highlighter is useful to define your cheek bones as well as gives them that shine! Do not forget to highlight the cupid's bow and the tip of your nose!
12. Natural Lipstick/Lipgloss: Your lips should be kept moisturised at all times. A natural coloured lipstick will give some colour to your look while a lipgloss will help you glow! If applying a matte lipstick, apply a lip primer before so as to avoid that dry feeling. If not, you will end up biting your lips to remove any hard skin...It's better safe than sorry. If you hate lipstick or lipgloss go for a lip-balm (If possible, with SPF!).

13. Basic Brushes: One Liner Brush, one Shadow Brush, one Blush Brush, one Powder Brush and last but not least a Foundation Brush.

14. Eyelash Curler: An eyelash curler is an important tool in a makeup bag. Indeed, this saves time due to the fact that it manages to separate your eyelashes as well as make them look longer before even putting mascara. And who knows..you might end up with no mascara after all!
