Makeup for holiday!

HELLO EVERYBODY!

I am so sorry for my absence – I have just come back from a two week holiday in Marrakech, Morocco!  I had an amazing time, I even managed a tiny tan (whilst wearing spf 50 all holiday!).  I will do an individual post on it with pictures after I download them all. 

But for now I have pictures of all the makeup I took with me for the two weeks.  Anybody who has been reading this blog for a while will remember this post that I did before my holiday last year, I took way too much makeup and hardly used any of it.  I really tried to cut down what I took this year, but I still managed to take too much.

I’ve listed every product below with an estimate in brackets of how many times I used that product.  It was over 40 degrees in Morocco so on most days I didn’t wear any makeup at all (it was just way too hot to even bother) so anything that was used over 5 times was useful to take in my opinion!

As you can see I could have cut down a bit more, but I managed and it was lovely to get away from wearing full smokey eyes each day.  I gave my skin a breather too and now my skin is glowing which I’m really happy about.

Toiletry wise I took Paula’s Choice face wash, toner and moisturizer, TBS Mango body lotion & Cocoa Butter Body Butter, Batiste Dry Shampoo, Herbal Essences hair products, and an SPF of 50+ and 30 which were both used on my face and body daily. 

I’m glad to be back home now (I couldn’t stand the heat much longer, I much prefer winter!) and I will return to blogging as usual as soon as I’m sorted. 

How much do you take with you on holiday?  Do you think I took too much?
