I’m preparing for an overseas trip in a few months’ time, popping over to France, dipping into the UK briefly and then onto Italy.
And while I’m not at all concerned about preparing the whimsical summer clothes I’ll need to pack for the trip, it’s my makeup bag that requires some whittling down before I’m ready to travel light abroad.
I’m used to bringing a thousand and one products on every trip I go on, immediately regretting it when I only use a small portion of them and vowing to be a better packer next time.

Well, next time is here and the saving grace that’s here to save my toiletry bag is Trinny London.
Trinny, the fashionista-turned-beauty-mogul, has crafted a range of no-fuss products that fit seamlessly together as “stacks” so you can house your blush, eyeshadow, highlight and lipgloss all together in a handy set.
The easiest way to find the colours that will suit your skin tone is to use the Match2Me function on the website, answer a few simple questions and you’ll have the perfect kit of colours to choose from.
For my skin tone, hair colour and eye colour, the Flush Blush Schmoogie ($40) was an instant match, with a soft hint of mauve that amplifies my dark locks.
The matching generator recommended Wisdom as a base eye shadow shade ($34) followed by Faith ($34) to deepen the outer corner of my eye.
As a lip colour I’ve been testing out Cordy ($30), a deliciously watermelon scented Lip Glow that promises to add a touch of sheen and dew.
Trinny has even added a combined mascara and brow brush in the form of Lash2Brow ($50) that cuts down on bringing one extra product in your makeup bag.
If you’re particularly oily or you’re in a warmer climate simply bring a powder along with you to avoid looking too shiny and you’re ready for both casual day looks and nighttime party looks.
I’d go so far to say that you could comfortably use Trinny London’s makeup stacks on your wedding day with ease.
In order to save your hard earned pennies while you shop, simply purchase the makeup in sets to get a discount online.
I’ll definitely be adding more to my collection before heading off to Europe.
