Whats in my Makeup Bag..??

Hi Eveyone..
Okay..like most of us..Im very much interested in seeing what other people carry around in their makeup bags..and there are several times that i would just type "whats in my makeup bag" in youtube search tab. Anyways..its finally my time to do this post..

Whats in my Makeup bag

This is the makeup bag that I got from target (its london soho), when they are giving away some free bags. Im lucky enough to grab it, just in time, when my older (boring black) bag was ripping off at zipper.

Okay..befre going ahead.. I would like to mention some few things...
1: All the products in my makeup bag or to say all the products that I use are drugstore products.. I could even step up a bit and say., certain products are even cheap/inexpensive/ affordable. So, those of you who are very much in to High-end category..u could please skip this up..because you arent going to like this,im telling ya.
2: The products that Im using right now are time-tested products(by myself). They are not like some I picked up on my way home and using them, ofcourse I had another stash full of such products sitting unused. Ive been using these on and off and try some different products (sake of youtube/beautyblog gurus recommedations) and come back to these... Might I add that Ive been on a hunt since 2007 to get a bag full of what I like and need..??
3: By "Whats in my makeup bag", I just doenst mean that I travel with these products in a day-to-day basis, but rather mean that I use these everytime, all thru out the year. Whether Im travelling, or if im staying at home..or if its a nightout.. I really like how my bag turned out because.. I can use certain products in these and just look presentable while Im staying at home or pick some combo of products and get full coverage long lasting finish.. Its like..'u tell me what u want and il have it in here'.

Okay..enough of that and lets get started...

Coty Airspun Loose Face powder dumped into another pot

And coming to the powder..I guess not so many were aware of the powder..so i made it sure that i show that as well. Well, its Coty Airspun loose face powder, and as you can see, that its quite huge to carry around..so I have to dump some amount in to another pot that I have.

Well ,thats it for now..and i think il post some reviews on these(kinda HG items) soon.
Till then..
Bye

Encounter with AntiMakeupers (Ramblings/Vent)

AntiMakeuper: (Im not sure whether theres such a word..but I guess uld get what it means) In my way, it means that..

•  A person who doesnt wear/use/like makeup and feels superior/beautiful about themselves by comparing with those who wear makeup. 
•  A person who thinks that those whoever wear makeup looks like monsters without makeup on..and obviously use makeup to look atleast/just like humans.
• A person who thinks makeup is meant to seduce men.
• A person who treats makeupers as though they are beaaches.. :P

Okay..enough of my definitions..
This post is kind of a rambling or a vent of my unending pain towards the way I was treated by a person. More details later..but for now..if u think this is waste of time..its up to you..ur will..But anyways..Ive made a point to write everything about here and NOW..

Okay here goes the story...

SCENE 1:
Not so long ago..(a few days ago),a neighbour of mine(wife &husband) came to our house while they are out for their evening walk. They always go for evening walks and drop at our place sometimes to say hi..they are good, obviously. Then one day, we asked them to comeover for dinner on a weekend, and we added a movie night as well (Dinner at 8PM and movie untill 1AM, then they leave) So..after a while, the man went to the restroom thats attached to the living room. Now, the wife wants to go to the restroom as well and she seems to be so uncomfortable, that she needs to go asap. While Im doing a bit of cleaning in the kitchen, noticed that shes in trouble, and asked her to use our bathroom(the one in the masterbedroom). So, she rushed right away. As soon as she came out of the bathrrom, we carried on our gettogether...and whatsoever we started talking/conversation she started picking up MAKEUP from it. Yeah..its like an old cow story. I was like "what..??what does that has to do here..??"

That day night, when they left for home at around 12:30AM, i want to go, get refreshed for bed(night time skin routine), so i went to the bathroom. And there I got the reason, why the lady is all about talking makeup. "I left my makeup products on the counter". I often do that. Moreover, its our bathroom and we dont expect others to use it..so im not in to hiding up my personal products in there. Added,its makeup...the ones that Ive left on the counter are Aveeno tinted moisturizer, milani pressed powder, lakme face magic daily wear shouffle. Thats it..Im not going to turn in to a beautiful princess (from a monster/ugly lady) with those..right!?

SCENE 2:
Came another weekend, the same couple called us, as we are getting ready to hit a mall nearby(hubby wants to do some clothing haul) after we finished our lunch. They said that they would join us as well, as they dont have anything to do and so bored already. Okay..we picked them on the way..and ooh boy as soon as we entered the mall..the man(the lady's husband) was shouting "darling, do u want a trail of makeup...i guess theyll do it for u"..and that lady who is walking next to me...replied "no baby..my skin is soo sensitive...whatever makeup i use, that just doesnt suit my skin.." (I was like..really..??)

First off, these guys were married for abt 6-7 years..and she is telling him NOW that makeup isnt good for her skin. Really..?? Im not sure whether u got the point or not..but this whole conversation was more like those saas-bahu serial where a person picks up the ringing phone and talks, but we viewers could literally come to know the conversation is...!! u know what i mean. Ok, its like she is telling me indirectly that, "Hey my skin is sensitive and so im not wearing makeup. Whereas you wear a lot of makeup and im a beautiful angel and ur a monster [take that]"

And ooh boy..there are lots and lots of other secnarios to share..now that I really got tired of typing this..i think ill stop here..
But whatever it is..I really hate when people think that those whoever wear makeup, they are none other than beaches.

Thats it..
Bye for now..

Current Lemming: Milani MultiTasking Face Powder

Hi there.. Hows everyone doing..?? Hope great.

Anyways...its been a while since I stopped searching for a Powder Foundation because I thought Maybelline Mineral Power Powder Foundation (in Light 4) matched my skin tone quite well.. But few days ago..It accedentally/luckily happened to look myself in the day light(dont know why I didtn do that until now) and  I looked as though I was wearing a grey/pinkish mask that looked completely unflattering. So, I turned on my laptop , to look for best powder foundations. U see, Powder Foundation is the only thing that I could go on and ofcourse tinted moisturizer, being the other option. But no liquid foundations for me please. I dont know any apparent reason, but I look completely fake, unnatural, funny, clowny, etc whenever I put on a liquid foundation. Few Ive tried., Revlon Colorstay foundation, Rimmel Lasting finish foundation, Lakme foundation(I dont remember the exact name), but whatever, I finally figured that Liquid foundations are not up my alley.

So, while I was browsing MakeupAlley, I picked up some few options.

1. Covergirl Simply Powder Foundation
2. Physicians Formula Healthy Wear Mineral Foundation
3. Milani Even touch Powder Foundation
4. Milani Multitasking Face Powder

(Yea..all non-desi stuff..but Im helpless, when one cannot reach those)
I can see Loreal True match powder foundation, Neutrogena powder Foundations as well..but Im going strongly on budget. Nothing more than $8. And mostly in a compact form, thats quite portable, easy for touch ups on the go (with a mirror & sponge). There are several other mineral foundations as well but I cannot get over their packaging. Its just not handy for me.

 Anyways..now that I have these options..the best that matched me is the Milani Multi tasking Face Powder. Its got 4.3/5 in MUA. Cost is around $6. I like that gold packaging as well. The only con is that Im not sure what shade should I pick, which means more time to search google.Anyways, have to wait a while to place my order online..because I have to line this with someother goodies to avail the free shipping thing (I hate to pay shipping charges :P )

So thats it for now ladies.
Ciao.
