What’s in my makeup bag? Girly essentials 🎀
My makeup bag filled with all the girly essentials! I got the bag as a gift, but I think it’s from Amazon! It has cute little floral details on it
🎀Perfume
My favorite perfume at the moment is Afternoon Delight from Replica! It was the perfect vanilla, cookie bakery, sweet scent. It’s a newer vanilla scent so definitely go to Sephora to try it out. It has pretty good staying power too! It stayed on my clothing for 2 days. The Gisou perfume is technically a hair perfume, but I spray it everywhere haha. It’s a warm floral scent that’s perfect for the fall weather!
🎀Lips
The Summer Fridays lip butter balm is an all time favorite. It moisturizes your lips so well and it adds a bit of brown-ish color! The YSL candy glaze balm is super soft and hydrating too. It’s a sheer pink that you can just throw on without having to use a mirror
🎀Hair accessories
Both of the clips are from a small canadian brand called Goddess. They’re so sturdy (much more than Amazon ones) and hold your hair so well. I have pretty thick hair so this is a must! The pearl scrunchie is super fun too, it adds a little feminine touch to a regular ponytail! You can find it on Amazon
🎀Hair
Always need a hairbrush and a taming wand! I love the taming wand from Dae. It smells like citrus, lightweight on the hair, and tames your flyways all day long
🎀Lotion and glow
L'occitane is the BEST for hand lotion. It’s my absolute favorite. It’s rich, buttery, and so nourishing. Since the colder months are among us, you need this in your bag! I always experience dry and cracking knuckles when it’s cold and this is the only lotion that helps with that! I like to keep a glow drop on hand with me for when my skin is looking a little dull. I usually mix it in with my lotion and apply it to my neck/declate area! The Live Tinted glow drops add a healthy glow without looking glittery
🎀Misc
A compact mirror is a must for touch ups throughout the day! I keep a cuticle oil because dry cuticles are neverrr fun! The Skin Gym zit stick is a new item in my collection! It has blue and red LED light to help fight acne. You just turn it on and put it over a pimple for 3-5 minutes. I’ve noticed the pimple size decreases a bit after using it!
🎀Sanitzier
Always gotta stay clean and germ free! The Touchland one is fun and cute. It’s pretty expensive so it’s not a need imo!

It's so fun sharing what's in my makeup bag! But beyond just naming products, I wanted to dive a little deeper into why these items are my everyday "girly essentials" and how they fit into that whole aesthetic vibe we love. For me, it's about curating a collection that makes me feel put-together, pampered, and totally me, even on the busiest days. When it comes to perfumes, it's not just about smelling good, but about setting a mood! My Replica Afternoon Delight isn't just vanilla; it really evokes that cozy, sweet 'bakery' vibe that instantly feels warm and inviting. For a truly 'girly aesthetic', I also think about layering. Sometimes, I'll use a matching scented body lotion first, then my perfume, and then a hair perfume like Gisou for an all-over, long-lasting scent cloud. It makes such a difference for staying power throughout the day! My lip game is all about hydration and a subtle pop of color. The Summer Fridays balm and YSL Candy Glaze are staples, but for that extra 'aesthetic pink girly stuff' touch, I always keep a mini tinted lip oil or a sheer, dewy blush stick in my bag. A quick dab of blush on the cheeks and a little on the lips can instantly brighten up your face and tie your whole look together without needing a full mirror. It's about that fresh, effortless glow! Those sturdy hair accessories from Goddess are truly life-savers for my thick hair! But beyond just holding my hair, they add to my 'girly aesthetic.' A cute claw clip can transform a messy bun into something chic, and that pearl scrunchie instantly elevates a simple ponytail. Don't forget a good hairbrush for quick touch-ups to keep everything smooth. I also love to keep a travel-sized dry shampoo or texturizing spray on hand for a quick volume boost if my hair starts feeling flat mid-day. It’s all about maintaining that effortless, polished look! My L'occitane hand cream is non-negotiable, especially now that it's colder. But for an added 'glow' that screams 'aesthetic,' I sometimes mix a tiny bit of my Live Tinted glow drops into my usual hand lotion and apply it to my arms and décolletage for a subtle shimmer. It’s a little secret for looking radiant! And speaking of skincare, that new Skin Gym zit stick with LED light for skin care has been a game-changer for those unexpected breakouts, helping to calm them down fast. It’s so satisfying to see quick results! Never underestimate the power of the little things! My compact mirror is always ready for quick checks, and a reliable cuticle oil pen keeps my nails looking neat – a small detail that makes a big difference to feeling put-together. And of course, a chic hand sanitizer like Touchland has become a modern essential. It’s practical, but having one with cute packaging definitely fits the 'aesthetic pink girly stuff' vibe. Keeping all these 'miscellaneous' bits organized, maybe in a small pouch, helps maintain the overall neatness of my floral makeup bag!
