Have you ever been working late or running around town and then you get the call from your guy or girlfriends for a spontaneous night out, leaving you with no time to go home and primp? I know this has happened to all of us at one time or another and I have learned how important it is to be ready for anything! I make sure that my makeup bag has the essentials to help you primp in the taxi, train, or car while you are headed out for a night on the town.
Here are the 2 simple must haves for every makeup bag:
- Brushes- You gotta have the right tools to get the job done! I love petite short brushes because they will fit perfect into any bag and help you get close to the mirror. Sephora has the perfect set which retails for only $15. This is perfect for travel and your brushes will stay protected in the case.
- Your favorite face palette -
This palette should contain all you need to get ready quickly and on the go. I love the Urban Decay Urban Arsenal Palette. It has everything! You have an eye primer, black mascara, lip gloss, four eye shadows, and a fabulous after glow blush! The blush is actually my favorite because it will give your cheeks that boost of color you need to create that evening shimmer. The best part is that it only retails for $42. You can find this all in one palette at Sephora. My other top favorites when it comes to all in one palettes are the Nars Artist Palette, as you can see, it is all you need! And let’s not forget the Too Faced Little Pink Book, which has a concealer, eye shadows, lip gloss, eye liner, and even a brow powder touch up! Plus I love the packaging too!
That’s it! Now that you have the tools and the all-in-one palette of your choice, you are ready to leave work, change into a hot pair of shoes, and primp on your way to a spontaneous and unexpected night out! Enjoy! You will look fabulous, like you didn’t even try!

Thanks very much for these tips. As a mom of two kids I’m always looking for ways to get ready quicker
Products that do double duty or are grouped together are my favorite. Thanks again–I’ll have to try the Urban Decay palette.
