...and if so, what is in it?
I have a lippy, tinted lipbalm, spare black eyeliner, at least one coloured eyeliner, spare blush and brush, spare bb cream/foundation and spare mascara in it. Usually there is a perfume sample or 2 knocking around in there too. I work loooong days (today for example I got to work about 7.55am and left about 7.15 pm) and touching up my face is as much as a pick-me-up as caffeine later in the day

Do you have an at work touch-up makeup kit?

I used to take a bunch of stuff to work to touch up with, but ever since I've figured out what works well for me, my makeup tends to last pretty well. I do take a little stash with me if I'm heading out after work and won't have time to come home, but on an every day basis I just carry a powder, my lippy of the day and nude eyeliner to reapply to my water line :)
Oh and I have hand cream in my desk drawer! Necessity!

I do just in case and it has powder, oil blotting sheets and lipstick. I don't really tend to use it much though.
What I use more are my rollerball perfume, hand cream and vaseline lip balm. My essentials are my heels and blazer at work though. They have saved me going from being too casual on a Friday.

Whittakers lover - yep. We got selected from 250 schools to be the representative NZ school at a youth conference, so I'm taking 6 11 year olds and a 16 year old over for 2 weeks at zero cost to the families. We're fundraising the spending money and being sponsored for the rest, including my costs. Incredible feeling to be able to do this for the kids
I always keep a concealer and a powder (powder with a sponge so I don't have to carry a brush). I have a wee brush that pops out which is fantastic and has a mirror. Then a chapstick sort of thing with a bit of colour in it in case I forget a lippy or need moisture. Handcream. Always sunscreen too in case I end up in the sun unexpectedly. A few bobby pins (a tampon just in case) and a safety pin. Then I always pack whatever lippy I'm using that day. Generally though all that fits in a tiny wee bag so doesn't take up too much space :)
I carry my make up bag around with me to work each day. Or when going out for the day. I like to refresh the bag each day but it usually carries the same thing. For me I think it's a habit that secures me. Check make up has a fluffy brush for the face, lipstick,deodorant, fragrance, eyeliner and now eyepencil and setting powder for any touch ups. Now I've got the urban decay slick setting spray that will coming along as well just in case. Oh and a mascara brush,disposable,Some interment travel packs and sanitary items. This is what is in my makeup bag.
This thread is so interesting. I try and focus on long-lasting makeup when I apply it in the morning, but I usually take a powder, powder brush, and lipstick with me. The lipstick goes everywhere with me, but the powder is only if I'm out for more than five hours. When I'm out for the day I also take a travel electric toothbrush and toothpaste haha. xx
Make up wise I have very little that stays at work, I have a mini urban decay setting spray, a nude eyeliner, setting powder, powder brush and lipbalm. I chuck my lippy in my handbag each morning and currently have about 10 floating in my bag haha. Other items I keep at work include/; a mini spray deoderant, a few rollerball perfumes, a hairbrush, hair ties and bobbi pins, tooth brush, toothpaste, floss, mini mouth wash, breath mints, spare phone charger, sanaitry items. everyone at work teases me for it but at least i'm never caught out if we have to go to an emergency meeting
I have a Marc by Marc Jacobs pouch that travels EVERYWHERE with me. It contains
- MAC Blotting Powder
- Mini RT Brushes
- Collection 2000 Concealer
- Sample of Coco Madamoiselle Parfum
- NARS deluxe sample eyeliner
- Benefit deluxe sample mascara
- At least three lipsticks (they seem to congregate in my handbags!)
- Michael Kors White mini perfume
If I get really desperate, I work next to a supermarket so I can always make a mad dash for eyehadow :) but I do want to get a Lorac to go just to be on the safe side for my stash.
In my desk drawers, I do keep some makeup remover wipes which I use on days where I'm going to the gym straight after work and don't want to look like a mess as I sweat everything off.

I am a fail at hand creams >.< like I have purchased heaps of hand creams, mainly ones with a cute packaging :3 used for maybe three times fax and it just sits in my draws looking lonely haha.
I don't really have a touch-up kit at work, all I bring with me is oil blotting paper, MAC blot powder, a travel size kabuki brush and lip balms.
