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:

1. 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.
2. 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!

That’s right ladies, you can be absolutely fabulous in only 5 minutes with 5 products. When it comes to makeup, you only need a few key products to complete your look and give you that gorgeous healthy glow!

To become “Fab in Five” you will only need five fabulous products:

1. Your favorite concealer
2. A tinted moisturizer or complexion product to give your skin a glow
3. An incredible bronzer
4. A fabulous mascara
5. The perfect lip gloss to complete the look!

All of these products should always be a part of your everyday beauty rituals, and this is all you need to look like you spent all that time in the mirror getting ready for your day. What I love the most about all of the Fabulous Five is that you can keep these products with you and they are all you need to touch up throughout the day. These are my favorites to get you started on your own fab five!

• I don’t know about you, but I can not leave the house without my concealer! I love the Lancôme waterproof concealer in a tube. This will give you complete full coverage and will stay on all day long! Trust me, when it comes to concealers, this one is incredible!

• When it comes to complexion products, I have a few favorites… Fresh makes my number one favorite, High Noon. High Noon is a complexion product that gives your skin a warm, sun kissed glow and also has treatment benefits in it to actually help your skin hydrate, tone, and reduce redness. M.A.C. Cosmetics also makes Select Tint Spf 15, which will also evens out your skin tone and give you some Spf protection, which is very important.

• Bronzer, Bronzer, Bronzer! We could talk bronzer all day, but we will keep it to the top three. Bonnie Bell has a bronzer that I have used for years called Glimmer Bronze. This loose powder bronzer can be used all over your body to give you a serious sunless tan glow! Too Faced Caribbean in a compact is an incredible bronzer that comes in really cute packaging with two shades to choose from.

• Mascara is like an obsession of mine! I really have to be honest and say I love to try new mascaras all the time! I will love Fresh Supernova Mascara forever! It doesn’t contain any alcohol so it won’t dry out your lashes and it is a true black. I always have a Lash Definer by Maybelline in my makeup bag at all times. It has a comb applicator so you can get ridiculous length and volume.

• Lip Gloss is all about what you like! There are so many to choose from so have fun with your gloss and remember to try a bright color to really brighten up your look! I love all Lip Fusion Lip glosses, they plump, treat, and are super glossy. L’Oreal makes great lip-glosses in all shades called Color Juices. There are so many shades to choose from so have fun and create your fabulous look in just five minutes!
