All my bags are packed...

Tomorrow I'm finally flying to Vancouver - yipee! While I'm not looking forward to a 10 hour flight plus stop-over in Amsterdam, I did finally manage to finish up the bulk of my packing. I am thankfully under the baggage weight limit, and I've pared down my makeup kit as well.

I present to you my "desert island" makeup bag!

MAC Underage lipglass
Nailpolish: Barry M Baby Blue, China Glaze Ruby Pumps, Manhattan 35W
Essence black eyeliner

I haven't packed my other toiletries yet but I'm going to be keeping those to a bare minimum and just buying the rest in Canada like shampoo, shower gel, etc.

Now I'm off to pack the rest of my things and then hopefully get an early night's sleep!

xo,
Jules
