Minty Gal

I don’t know about you gals, but as soon as it starts getting warmer, I ditch my beloved large bags for something smaller. I do tend to switch my bags often, which makes this process easier when I am carrying the bare necessities. Smaller bags also means less makeup, as I do not have the space or want to carry around products I don’t need.

For this year, I have been switching between two of my favorite bags. Due to the limited amount of space, I like makeup that can multitask. The only base makeup I carry for touchups is concealer, as it has a great amount of coverage but takes up significantly less space. Since I usually wear a mask, I usually find the only touch-ups necessary are my lips and cheeks. Opting for a multi-use lip and cheek product is best because it is easy to use! I always bring along a lip balm with SPF as well as blotting sheets. Heat, humidity, and sunscreen can sometimes leave the skin looking shinier than you would like. Blotting papers come in handy as they do not disturb makeup on the face but effectively remove any shine without adding more onto the skin. I’m curious, what makeup goodies do you gals through these summer months?
