I travel around the UK a lot! From Sheffield where I currently live and attend University, to my parents house back in Manchester, down to my boyfriends house in Essex. When moving around I am always paranoid about forgetting important items. I like to travel light as bulking bags and suitcases around are not my style! Along with the obvious, spare clothes etc. I much prefer a few essential items chucked into my handbag! My travel essentials consist of:
My Kindle
I use this for everything, from reading, to catching up on the news, to tweeting, watching YouTube videos and Netflix!
Mini moisturiser
I'd be so lost without a decent moisturiser, but lugging bottles and bottles of moisture, face, body, and hands around would be a pain! So a decent all in one is definitely needed!
Underwear
I always make sure I have extra knickers in my bag, don't ask why haha!! I guess you never know...
But seriously black and white underwear is a must, nothing worse than the wrong colour underwear, ie: white knickers under a pair of black leggings, major no no!
Chargers etc.
Obviously nobody wants to be without their beloved phone, so I've purchased a spare charger and keep it in my travel bag, this way I don't have to remember the one I keep at my Sheffield home, I also always have a spare if it breaks or whatever!
My Travel Make up
I have so much make up, I just couldn't possibly take it with me everywhere I go, so unless I know I'll be going on a night out and need my full face on, I only take my bare essentials.
I love the MAC studio fix foundation, I sometimes mix it with a little moisturiser and use it as a BB cream.
Concealer is my go to, must have, swear by, product! Working nursing shifts, long days and nights, don't do anything for my eyes, and I'm often left with dark circles! So I rely on this provide me with a fresh, revitalised face!
This MAC bronzer come highlighter is perfect as its a combined product which means less make up needed!
My brow pencil is my life, a defined eye brow makes a face so without this Id be screwed!
And finally a mascara, the bold black lash from MAC elongates and blackens my lashes.
I could not agree more with the idea of having several chargers, especially if you travel! The amount of times I left my chargers behind or needed to charge on the go are countless! Similarly, a portable charger is a great investment :)

I am hopeless at remembering my charger! I always end up leaving them behind too. A portable charger is a brilliant idea. I have an in-car charger for emergencies. I know it's wrong but being without my phone is like loosing a limb!
