GROOVY BABY

We have some major festivals approaching in the next few weeks. Are you going? What are you packing? I will be at jazz fest and though it is extremely difficult for me to consolidate, here is my packing list that I came up with!!

My Must Haves:

Bronzer- I choose MAC Mineralize Skin Finish in Gold Deposit this gives you a goddess-like glow! Some would call it a J-Lo glow but I prefer to stick with goddess. (No offense J-Lizzle)$32

Highlighter- I am crazy for highlighters right now I have them in every form! I will doing another post strictly dedicated to highlighters soon!! For pack on friendly reasons I am choosing a baked highlighter from Laura Geller in the shade French Vanilla! This highlighter is GORGEOUS swipe it across your cheekbones, down the center of your nose and a dab on your cupids bow and you're good to go!! SO PRETTY! $30

Lipstick- Festivals require bright lipstick. The beauty gods say so! Options for Bright red corals would be something like Kat Von D Under Age Red or Mac's Lady Danger. Pinks you could do something like Mac's Show orchid, Candy Yum Yum, Silly (Limited Edition), or Kat von D Backstage Bambi. Orange/Corals Reel Sexy (mac limited) Go-Go Kat Von D, Flamingo or Sushi kiss both by Mac. $16-$24

A Pair or 2 of Falsies- Duh... $2-$17

Brows- Either brow powder or brow wiz from Anastasia would be great because they are compact and travel friendly.

For your liquids baggie:

Duo Lash Adhesive in dark tone $6

Kat Von D Trooper liner because nothing stays better than this liquid liner! Nothinnngggg! $18

Smashbox Full exposure waterproof mascara because it is so black and makes your lashes say "WHABAMMMM!!!" $20

If you aren't a lipstick girl I recently discovered an awesome NARS lipgloss called Easy Lover it is a super sheer Fuchsia pink color (perfection!!) $26

Mac Pro Longwear concealer because it covers fantastically, is nice and compact and stays put! Another great concealer is Kat Von D concealer Mac is $19 Kat is $26 take your pick.

Travel Sized Makeup forever setting spray - or - My favorite Urban Decay All-Nighter Setting spray because you'll be dancing and sweating $10-14

MAC Lightful lC Tinted Cream with SPF- This is a CC (color correcting) cream that reduces imperfections while increasing the natural radiance of your skin instantly and over time. Infused vitamin C, it works to correct your overall complexion by reducing the appearance of pores and diminishing dark spots and hyper-pigmentation, and the SPF 30 protects against UVA/UVB rays. Perfect for being outside all day!!

Extras:

A Dual Ended brush, this is Kat Von D's Contour brush. Id use the larger end for bronzing and the smaller end for highlighting.

Funky sunnies- Major Festival must have! (I love my Quays!)

A statement bib necklace- total must have right now! Spring, summer, fall, winter, they are consistently hott!
