In My Beauty Bag - and a Sebastian iPad Giveaway

Here are some items I like to pack in my beauty bag. They are the minimal beauty products I like to keep around to prepare for a perfect night out.

1. Nail polish is a must for me (especially with open toe shoes). For the fall, I like to bring back my OPI Lincoln Park after Dark nail polish.
2. To even out my complexion, I like to start with Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua, a fantastic natural, good coverage foundation.
3. Bare Escentuals Finishing Veil adds the last bit of luminous glow for all night coverage.
4. I blend everything onto my face with my Sigma F82 brush.
5. Next, I curl my lashes and apply a good coat of Dior Diorshow Black Out Mascara for thicker, fuller lashes.
6. I add a bit of my Revlon Softflex Colorstay eyeliner for an edgier look.
7. A spritz of Chanel Chance perfume adds some charm to any outfit.
8. Finally, I style my hair to give it a lot of volume and hold it all together using Sebastian Professional Sharper Zero Gravity hairspray. It leaves my hair light yet intact all night.
