Everything You Need To Build The Coveted Mini Make-Up Bag

This Nars concealer is a constant in many editors' beauty bags and for good reason. It's seamless to bend, sits smoothly on the under eye and lasts all day; it's a perfectly sleek addition to any mini beauty bag.

Loose powder is often the bulkiest item in our kits and let's be honest, when was the last time you finished a full size? Not only will the smaller iteration of this best-selling powder will last for ages, it also locks in your make-up meaning fewer touch-ups throughout the day.

If your skin veers on the oiler side, a compact powder will always be a handbag essential. This sample sized powder offers the smoothest finish and also has a handy mirror for correcting and touching up throughout the day.

This mini duo allows you to chop and change your everyday make-up look, without taking up too much additional space. Use 'muted pink' for the ultimate your-lips-but-better contour or 'pinky brown' for that 90s supermodel shape.

Available in a handful of Mac's all-time bestselling shades, their reformulated signature lipsticks are silkier than ever. 'Chili' is the perfect muted red for those looking to make a statement, but 'velvet teddy' will always be our favourite.

If you're already familiar with Rare Beauty's viral Soft Pinch Liquid Blush, you'll know that a little bit of this blush goes a long, long way. If you don't already have your hands on this modern cult classic, we recommend picking up the smaller size to last you through summer.

Yet another little-goes-a-long-way formula, this bronzer gives the skin a lived-in glow that never looks faux or heavy. Apply to the high points of the face with a fluffy blush and light hand for the ultimate summer tan that lasts.

Opting for a multi-use product can save essential space in your beauty bag and this volumising brow gel is a great example. It fills in gaps and adds a boost of colour to the brow, negating the need for a pencil or pen, while also adding shape and hold.

From cream shadows to single powders, the options for mini eyeshadows are endless. We particularly love this trio because it created a uniform look but offers three different finishes depending on the occasion.

This lasting liner is perfect for adding drama to your make-up without having to carry shimmers and pencils. The fine tip and effortless guide allows you to create a classic cat eye look, without the risk of accidentally going full Amy Winehouse if the train hits a bend. We've all been there.

This travel-friendly mascara truly packs a punch, adding volume and drama to lacklustre lashes. The options are endless, though. From tubing formulas to waterproof finishes, finding a flight-ready component has never been easier.
