Just for a little introduction...
I'm 39 years old with a combination skin type (oily on nose and forehead, dry everywhere else), persistent acne (thanks to polycystic ovary syndrome), no issues with sunburn (just not very prone to it) and no wrinkles (yet).
My makeup philosophy when on vacation (straight out of an episode of "Full House" from 20 years ago), is that, "the secret of makeup is to make it look like you're not wearing any," so I use a pretty light hand. My main objectives are blemish cover, and making my small eyes look a little larger. I also don't spend a lot on pricey brands -- it's just not in my budget.
My Disney makeup regimen (curated both for looking good, and packing small) includes:
1 - Cover Girl & Olay "Simply Ageless" serum primer (moisturizes, and keeps my foundation from melting, slipping or sweating off) -- I've also used Mary Kay moisturizer with sunscreen, PLUS the Mary Kay makeup primer, and had good results with that in the past
2 - Cover Girl & Olay "Tone Rehab" 2-in-1 foundation, applied with a sponge (two decades of acne and scarring demands at least medium coverage, and I find that this product lasts all day, and is so light that I don't even feel like I'm wearing foundation - plus it's SPF15)
3 - Cover Girl pressed powder compact (to minimize shine)
4 - Eyeliner pencil (Rimmel London "ScandalEyes" is my favorite kind), applied with a light hand (just enough to define the eyes -- we are not Adele)
5 - Eyelash curler (I have a travel-size one I bring on Disney trips)
6 - Waterproof mascara (no favorite brand) in a sample-size tube
7 - Eyeshadow chub pencils (easier to travel with, don't have to be placed in a 3-1-1 bag, and a pink one can double for a blusher if desired)
8 - Moisturizing, tinted lip balm with SPF 15+ (I skip the heavy lipsticks on vacation)
It takes me less than 5 minutes to do my makeup in the morning, start to finish. I sometimes take the lip balm with me in my park bag, but otherwise, I generally just "let it go," Elsa-style, for the rest of the day. If the weather is hot, I'll do a quick blot of my nose and forehead when I'm in the restroom (using an ordinary paper towel), but other than that, my makeup doesn't need any adjustment even in the muggiest conditions.
