Makeup Kit Revamping!!! Part I (Pic Heavy)

Hey, Glamour Dolls

I've mentioned before that I've wanted to revamp my professional makeup kit. I've been inspired by the makeup trade shows that I've been attending, plus I've completely out grown my current makeup kit.

I bought a new Zuca Artist Backpack to revamp my kit. If you haven't heard of Zuca, they're a company that makes carry all cases and luggage for just about everyone. Zuca has an artist series for makeup artists and hair stylists that make hauling around a kit so much easier and convenient.

I really wanted to purchase the Zuca rolling bag with the four plastic organizing pouches in it but it costs over $300, even though my makeup artistry business is growing, it doesn't justify buying a $300 carryall. So, I decided to buy the more cost effective backpack which is $129. Here are the pictures!


It's a backpack but it comes with a handle to carry in your hand. 


Front part that zips up from top to bottom.


 The left panel comes with clear pouches to carry items.

The left panel has four pouches to store items, you can also remove the two main utility pouches to carry whatever. 

The backpack comes with two small utility pouches, the inside can carry up to four utility pouches.

It also comes with two side pockets on the left side. 
The right side comes with more pockets plus a thermal pocket to store hot items. 

Adjustable straps for carrying. 
This pic gives you an idea of how secure the straps are when carrying the backpack. 

So far so good, I really like that it has so many pockets and compartments to keep things organized. Also, it can be used as a  mobile work station when making up clients, you just pin back the left panel and  work from out of the backpack...another feature that I like. I have a train case plus a rolling bag that I'm going to condense to fit in to this backpack. I wonder if I'll be to fit all of it?


My next post will show my results!

Great bag! I've seen this on Ebay. It looks great. I like the idea of being able to carry it on your back and being hands-free.

Thanks Lynnie!

Being able to carry it on your back is so convenient, it holds a lot too. I'll have the pics with all my stuff in it soon.

Mac Face and Body Foundation Review

One of my most used foundations is the Mac Face and Body liquid foundation. I've been promising a  review on it, so here it is. Product Claims "A water-based, water-resistant foundation that provides long-lasting, natural coverage for face and/or body. Ideal for all skin types. Face and Body Foundation provides sheer, natural looking coverage in an easy to blend, water-resistant formula. The long-lasting formula is available in a wide range of colours and contains several emollients to help moisturize and condition the skin. It delivers professional looking results that meet the exacting standards of beauty photography and is ideal for perfecting the face and body." Pros -Price is $32.50 retail and about $19 if you're a Mac pro card member (That could be a con based on your finances). -For the price you pay it gives you a lot of foundation. It's in a 4 fl oz bottle. -Because it's water based it doesn't feel heavy, it feels very light on the face. ...

Well-Being: A Better Night's Sleep

  Hello, Dolls A good night's sleep is something I've been chasing after for years. Like many people, my nights can be chaotic. Not to mention, I've been suffering with insomnia for years, yes years.     It takes me a while to unwind and fall asleep, and when I finally do, I wake up several times throughout the night. I’ve taken several sleep aids and remedies through the years. I've tried teas, linen sleep sprays, over the counter and prescription aids, and almost every lavender night time product out there. Some were helpful at first, but after a while, I think my body got immune to it. So, I was very curious when Highline Wellness gifted me a bottle of their CBD Night gummies. I was skeptical at first, but they’re really working for me.  The melatonin helps you to fall asleep, and CBD helps you to stay asleep. I’m able to fall asleep faster, and stay asleep longer. An added benefit is I don’t wake up the next morning experiencing grogginess like I’ve felt with ot...

Update & My Current Beauty Faves

Hey, Glamour Dolls! How are you all?! Long time no post...it feels good to finally write something on here. What's been going on with me? Just life. I've been busy and focused on a few things; which has been leaving me drained and given me a lack of desire to do anything else. Things have been all work and no play for a while and I'm finally getting my balance back again (sigh of relief!). Thankfully, I go on vacation in a few weeks. I hope to write a few more posts before I leave :-) As far as beauty news, I have been using products in my own stash-I have bought a few things here and there and I did purchase a big haul from a Mac Pro class I took the beginning of October (more about that in another post). Here are some of my faves that I've been using constantly using since the last time I posted. KISSABLE COUTURE GLOSSES I bought these glosses at The Makeup Show back in May and I've been loving them every since. The glosses are really long wea...
