(HAA): Highlighter Addicts Anonymous

[PinayGator]

My favorite SK product of all time besides her brushes is her Matte palette. I take that bad boy with me EVERYWHERE when I travel. As a matter of fact I'm packing for a trip this weekend and the 1st thing I pulled out of my massive collection to take with me was this palette. Now if I could only be just as decisive with the rest of my makeup. You guys so see the chaos building around me.

That matte palette is pure love!


I'm the same way when I travel, I swear my carry on bag was 95% makeup. Maybe bust out the Manizers for the trip? I'm way too paranoid to bring the Beccas or higher-end stuff.

So i went to the target near my work and yup there were 3 of the SK highlighters. Now there is 2 since I bought one....if you want me to grab u one I will! I highly doubt they are going anywhere since it's been there for a couple of weeks lol

I really want the SK bronzer/highlighter but i know that's perm so I can wait on that. I hope Cartwheel has SK on there soon.

edit to add: i swatched the highlighter and I barely touched it and it was SUPER pigmented! love it

My Becca highlighters have always traveled well for me, but I don't put them in my checked bag. My makeup always goes in my carry-on bag.

Don't put ANY of your highlighters in the checked out bag and they should be fine.

When I travel I only bring items that are replaceable aka PERM items! Just imagine if ur bag was lost can you easily replace ur makeup? The answer should always be YES. so no LE anything even brushes come with me....and I never check in makeup I will handcarry it on....

Just under lamp light with my finger! I just have a nice digital camera that picks up a lot of the little subtleties that my phone camera misses so I like to use that

I'm too lazy to take out my camera-------t's either my iPhone or iPad----I'm just pathetic.

 

[Medgal07]

So, so pretty!!!!

Do it -- they're amazing. I wore one yesterday and it lasted 12+ hours on me! The quality is up there w becca !

I rest my case!!!

I went this a.m and the vanity plate was there and a bag, they weren't before. Still the same broken highlighter, lol. She told me it will take about 3 weeks to get more. Whaaat? She said they tried to place an order this morning and it wasn't going through.

If there is something that you really want you should check weekly.

I'm only going to be gone for 5 days. You should see how many lipsticks I'm carrying. *sighs* I keep putting things in and pulling them out. I'd rather have too many and not use some than want to wear a color and not have it.

That's what I tell my husband but he doesn't get it!

Ok I'm scared. For all my local trips I usually take my Becca products. However I'm checking a bag for this trip. My EDSF made the trip to Europe fine. So I'm sure that Superb will be ok. It's Gold Deposit I should be worried about according to you ladies. I just brought her out of retirement. Maybe I should just take Glorify instead? Maybe also WOG? This is a slippery slope!

The EDSFs should hold up ok for you Dilli. They seem pretty sturdy.

I took a few msfs on my last trip to England and they made it fine in my carry on!

I have a question about travelling with makeup. do you have to make sure liquids are 3oz? Have you ever had anyone question anything? Is there ever a limit of how many 3oz liquid products you can have? I always checked my makeup b/c I don't know what's allowed, and btwn my hair products and foundation, I'm sure I'd be over the limit of how many liquid products I can bring on baord.

I've had friends get through security with the large tubs of Nivea lotion, but I'm scared to chance it. I keep my carry-on liquids to the required 3.4oz or below. You can bring as many as can fit in a quart size bag. Ziplocs don't work for me anymore, and the Sephora travel to go bags were okay but the zipper kept slipping off because the end wasn't reinforced like it is now. Anyway, I found a great bag at The Container Store that meets TSA regulations for carry-on liquids, and it fits A LOT. I love it!!! Can't remember the name off the top of my head, but will check when I get home tonight. I don't think I unpacked it from my recent trip so I'll post a pic of it as is and then I'll dump out everything and take a pic of that so you can see what I put in there. And of course, for any liquids more than 3.4oz, I'll check those. It's usually hair products. For the packaging that might tend to leak, I'll take the lid off, place Saran wrap around the mouth of the container, and put the lid back on. Then I'll place them in ziplocs - never had a problem that way. Nalgene containers are leakproof. I've been using the 2oz bottle my carry-on liquids that aren't already in their own travel-sized packaging.

In your carryon you can only have one quart sized ziploc bag (per person) of 3oz liquids and all your carryon liquids must be able to fit in that one bag. This includes lotions, hair products, liquid foundation etc. I've always gotten little travel sizes of lotions, conditioner, shampoo and put any hair products I need into little travel size jars along with my foundation (I leave the foundation in its bottle)into the ziploc bag. They will check your bag if you're bringing it along in security and they will remove any liquids over 3oz.

I keep my carry-ons w/in regulatory amounts and I've never had a problem. If I'm iffy about anything, it goes in my checked luggage. I would be beside myself if my
high-end items got confiscated.

I was hoping there was a way around teh 1 qt bag rule with makeup. LOL The last tme I traveled I just put everything in my suitcase.

Ok another question. I'm ALWAYS looking for the perfect toiletry/makeup bag. What are your faves to travel with. (Sorry I'm all off topic)
