I thought I had lost my handbag eeek...but fortunately it was a false alarm. I started to think of all thing things I'd have to replace: credit/debit cards, purse/wallet, keys, cell, and my MAKE-UP BAG. I added up the cost of all essential products and came up with $367.00!!!!

I'd love to hear about your experiences and what's in your bag!  

I don't carry a makeup bag. I live in an area that gets really hot in the summer and will literally melt (and ruin) any cosmetics. I hate carrying big purses. Mine is a similar to a messenger bag but it only holds my cellphone and my flat wallet. I fit a lip gloss in it from time to time but only if I'm going out to dinner and need to retouch.

YES! I carry my makeup bag everywhere. My wallet was stolen from my purse while I was at work 2 years ago and it was my next thought: OMG - I keep a FORTUNE's worth of makeup in there. ugg. Thankfully it was not taken (probably b/c my wallet was lifted by a man)

This is what I have pared it down to: pressed powder (18 year old silver refillable Clinique Forever compact), 2 or 3 lipsticks, 1 x gloss, YTC lip butter, sephora round pop-up brush, Clinique instant pore perfecter, nail file, wisp (disposable toothbrush/toothpaste thingy), panty liners (also great for sweaty pits), Clinique SPF 30 for Face, body butter, bobby pins, a scrunchie and Bare Essential q-tips that are preloaded with makeup remover. LOL. Thats all stuffed inside my Chanel bag. (it was a GWP!)  xoxo

ahh that'd be crazy if i lost my purse :o
i don't usually carry a makeup bag everywhere.. only if i'm going somewhere for a whole day or something like that you know? but to school and such.. naw :) i do always have at least: mirror, bronzer/powder, kabuki, carmex & lippie with me :)

I typically carry, on a day-to-day basic a small makeup bag with essentials incase of a makeup emergency or if a touch up is needed. When I travel however, I always ALWAYS carry it all in my purse. I think that's a given though. If I'm leaving for overnight, yes I carry a makeup bag.
I used to carry everything in my purse anyways, but sometimes my purse gets crowded.

I always carry my make up bag with me. I carry a lot with me even though I l know I won't be using everything within that day but I feel safe having it on me incase of an emergency lol. I carry more then I really need.

I have 3 lipsticks, 4 hair ties, 8 bobby pins, my compact mirror, travel size bottle of perfume, 3 glosses, 1 eyeliner, concealer, blotting paper, mascara, eye drops, and last my amazing tweezerman nail filer. All that fits into this small bag lol.

I don't have a bag...I should but i don't. I always carry certain things in my purse though.
chapstick stuff (eos lemon drop)
lip gloss (shea butter from c.o. bigelow)
2 mac lippies (these switch out periodically depending on the makeup I am currently digging)
perfume
gum
pretty much it. I am a mom so mostly I have diapers and wet wipes in my purse LOL

It's unthinkable for me to leave the house whitout my makeup bag. I have there all the products I need in case of a touch up during the day: foundation, handcream, manicure acessories, nail polish, lip balms, mascara, eyeshadow, blush, concealer, parfum...

i only carry blotting papers, powder, liner, and mascara i find if i apply my makeup well in the morning i dont really need to touch up too much through out the day and all of these products are drug store so if they break or lose them it's not expensive to replace them

I'll go against the majority by saying, "Nope!"

I don't like the idea of carrying makeup with me - gloss maybe, but if I can't get it right before I get out of the door, I won't bother... and I use every method possible to keep that war paint lasting me a full day of running around, so I rarely ever have to touch up.  =D

Oh my gosh, losing a bag! Horror! For that reason I had a few little words with myself about what cosmetics I reallllllly needed to carry with me so I narrowed it down to "the essentials" : powder, concealer, blush, lip gloss, moisture lip stick, and lovely fabulous life saver Blistex, hehe.
I find these are the "First Aid in make up needs for me when I'm at work or in the go. My shoulder thanks me less now I leave the rest and home and don't have to drag them around hehe.

Oo and of course hairbrush and RMK Rose Herb Mist to spritz on my face if I fancy a pamper outside of the bathroom hehe.

I don't carry a makeup bag with me only because I always have so many other things with me. I usually just bring oil blotting sheets and a pressed powder :)

i have my mac tartan holiday bag that had the brushes in it originally in my purse with a few products that i call my "purse makeup" haha.. its mostly just if i forget to put it on at home, so i can quickly get at least a bit on the bus or wherever.. no foundation, a high beam to go, sephora eyelash curler/brow comb tool in one.. little posie and bene tints.. little bit bad gal mascara, and thats about it.. if i have an older shadw that i rarely where, i throw it in there rather than just throw it out.

Do I carry a make-up bag everywhere I go?

I'll have to say sometimes I do carry mine around. Depends if I put on make-up on that day or not, just for touch up.

I only bring a makeup bag with me if I know I'm going to be out.. other than that, never!

no matter what purse I have, I always manage to fit a makeup bag in it, I love bringing my makeup with me

I only recently started carrying a make up bag in my purse. I use to keep just lipgloss with me. But now it's powder, a small brush, blush, blotting sheets, chapstick, and lipgloss. I also sometimes carry lipstick with me but that's not as often.

I only carry a make up bag if I'm using a big purse though.

I always carry a makeup bag in my purse. I even have a mini brush set (complete set of 5 dual ended brushes). I have minis of almost everything. I have mini foundation, concealer, eye mu palette, lippie. and carmex. My makeup bag also carries oil blotting sheets, hand sanitizer and sample spray of my perfume. LOOKS like theres a lot, yes but they are all minis ;)

I always carry my makeup bag with me, even when I'm not wearing makeup that day. When I don't have it, I'm literally a mess. It holds everything from my makeup palettes, blush, lippies, to even my contacts and my keys if I'm in a rush. I always keep it in whatever medium or large sized purse I'm carrying or my backpack. Never leave home without it. If I do...I'm screwed lol
