4 Night's Away: Make-Up & Perfume.

I'm going away for 4 nights on the 2nd of December so thought I'd show what has made the cut. First up is make up. Years ago I would take almost every item of make up I owned, I could never decide what to bring with me and surprise surprise, the majority of it never saw the light of day. Now I'm much more sensible and keep my make up to a minimum. I only bring what I know I'll definitely use it and as it's a spa break I more than likely won't want to wear make up anyway. So what made the cut?

Make Up:

YSL Le Teint Touche Eclat

Garnier Roll-On Anti-Dark Circles

YSL Touche Eclat

Chanel Illusion D'Ombre 'Emerveille'

Estee Lauder Lash Primer Plus
Estee Lauder Zero Smudge Lengthening Mascara
Nars Blush 'Douceur'

MAC MSF 'Soft & Gentle' (not pictured)

BareMinerals Hydrating Lip Tint 'Juicy'
DIY Tinted Brow Gel
Liz Earle Brow Pencil 'Fair'*

Brushes:

Real Techniques Buffing Brush
Real Techniques Delux Crease Brush

Real Techniques Blush Brush

Perfume:

Stella In Two Peony

I'm all chuffed with myself. I've been quite strict and only packed one of each thing - one blush, one lip product etc. The cases from the Real Techniques collections are so handy for travelling! No more getting the bristles caught in the zip of my make up bag or covered in fluff and whatever else seems to lurk at the bottom of bags. They're so handy to have. Stella In Two Peony has been discontinued, sad times! So now I only use it on special occasions to make it last as long as possible.

Are you a good packer or do you try squeezing the kitchen sink into your make up bag?

Evelyn Lauder Dream Pin

Evelyn Lauder Dream Pin £10

This year just like every other year the Evelyn Lauder Dream Collection is on sale to help raise money for Breast Cancer. There's a few different products and sets to choose from including a gorgeous compact and The collectible Evelyn Lauder Dream Pin. The Dream Pin is £10 with the full RRP less VAT donated to Breast Cancer Research Foundation. The pin includes a blue stone to represent the 1% of men who are effected.

If you fancy the Dream Pin order it now. It sold out quickly last year before I had a chance to place my order!

Delivery was free so I think it must be free with all Dream Collection orders but don't quote me on that. You also get to pick 2 delux samples at the check-out. I went for Double Wear Zero-Smudge Lengthening Mascara & Lash Primer Plus. They came presented in a navy Estee Lauder Pouch with a sample of one of the new Double Wear shades.
