The bare minimum
Figuring out what makeup essentials you need to carry with you can be a daunting task if you aren’t the kind to lug around one of those humongous bags that seem to fit in everything. While it’s a good idea to have a small pouch tucked in your bag with the basic makeup stuff so that you can always freshen up on the go, you still might not be able to have it with you at all times.
So what’s the one thing you should always carry in your purse, no matter how big or small it is? The Week talked to few people who are constantly in the limelight to know what, according to them, is the most important makeup item that one should simply not walk out of the house without.

Homemade kajal is my all time favorite makeup. My mother-in-law makes kajal at home. People usually ask me if I am unwell if they see me without kajal. You could say this makeup item is my confidence booster of sorts. I also usually carry loose powder with me whenever I’m out. Foundation and other makeup products usually give you a cakey look but loose powder can perk you up and make you look fresh by removing excess oil and adding a certain glow to the skin.

No one can go wrong with a bright colored lipstick. You can usually find lipstick from NYX or L’Oreal in my bag. Compact can also come in handy in difficult situations when you need to hide acne scars, dark circles, and look picture perfect. So I have that with me too. I prefer to use Revlon’s compact as it is very light and doesn’t leave a cakey feeling after applying.

It is often said that a woman’s eyelashes are her assets and I have been blessed in that area. I like to highlight what I already have so I make sure I carry Maybelline’s mascara wherever I go. Although I don’t prefer to use too much makeup on my face, it is a must for me to have my eyelashes done properly. I feel mascara does the right job of highlighting my strength and Maybelline’s mascara doesn’t contain that many artificial components and so it neither harms my eyes nor lashes.
