What makeup do you normally carry around with you in your makeup bag or handbag? For most of us, it will likely be the usual suspects: blotting paper, a powder to touch up and the lipstick we’re wearing the day of. But what if you could carry almost the entirety of your makeup routine with you? The answer is makeup sticks.

These are primers, foundations, blushes, bronzers and contours and highlighters made in a compact stick format that you can easily chuck into your bag and carry with you, whether you’re just shopping in Orchard, having a staycation or going on holiday. Doing your face or touching up on the go just got way easier with these travel-friendly makeup.
