Liz ... your little red kit looks the same as mine ... that I use to hold just my jewelry ... but I'm already outgrowing that. It's about 30 pounds loaded! Then it goes in side a big rolling suitcase (because it 's so heavy) with all my other stuff for styling and my set kit.

Aww Liz...your kit is SOOO friggin neat!! I love it! It's so nice to see how everyone stays organized!! Charlotte you have TONS of makeup, LOL!
By the way, I LOVE my freestyle pallette and I will be getting more. It has really helped to downsize all of my seperate pot shadows. I have been ranting and raving about it. (Liz, Dana told me she ordered one  ) One day, I'll get my pics together... Rhonda M.

Thanks for appreciating that, Liz. I've lost 2 dress sizes with no diet change, since I started doing this and I've gained a lot of upper bocy strength that I didn't have before. So I'm thinking that it's actually a good thing.

Here is my "set kit" - I meant to join in last time. I take this with any job and I know I'll have anything I need. However, there is (almost) no product in it. Just everything else.
 The closed bag - it's fairly small and will fit over the handles of any rolling back I use, or has a shoulder strap, or hand straps. It has a section in the top, another in the bottom, mesh on each end, and three small pockets on the back.  Here is the inside of the top - I've taken out the bag of the brushes I have in it (you can see them behind). There are 4 small pockets inside - clothes pegs are clipped to the one I have all of my spray bottles in.  The bottom section - it is easiest to see when the bag is on a table, but I can find anything in the whole bag by touch if I have to (in the dark, or because my eyes are on something else). Here is a *partial* list of what is in here. I realized when taking the pictures that there were a few things not on the list. But most are there. setbaglist.txt Noella p.s. I get asked frequently if I was a Guide (Girl Guide - same as Girl Scouts in the USA). With a motto of "Be Prepared"? |

Bumping! Great thread everyone! I'm running out of space but before I even think about ordering a new case I need to buy some of the Yaby palettes. Liz, your kit is beautifully organized! What an inspiration.

Have you ever had an especially dumb/airhead moment and someone who witnesses it just shakes their head pathetically at you?
Well, my S.O just did that. I was scrolling through the thread and must've been looking very studious or sumthin', because my s.o. asks, "What, what are you looking at?" and upon stepping up to the screen and realizing what it was, turned and walked away--head shaking pathetically  I blushed for a minute, but HEY, this thread wouldn't have been so popular if I weren't the only one absorbed in it!  Carrying on.....

Everyone knows I'm new, but thought you might be interested. I've never posted a pic, so we'll see how this works...I DID check faq on how to post, so hopefully this works!
The "kit":            And my faves/MUST-haves (thanks to so much advice here):  The side lock and handle:  The back convenient handle and storage:  (edited so pics will show. You have to make sure that both ends of the image tags are in lowercase, or it won't work.) |

Angela,
It says your photobucket account it set to private. I think if you change that we should be able to see the pictures. Also, at the bottom of the screen you can preview your post before actually posting it. Just check the Preview box and hit "Add Reply" and you can check to see if your pictures showed up Can't wait to see your pictures! ~Michelle Heffner |

Hi Monique,
Thank you for the compliment I got my quad bag at the Container Store in NYC when they had their travel sale. I think I paid $12 for it. You can also get similar ones at Ricky's (over priced), Eve's Beauty Supply EvesBeauty.com, or Set2Go Set2GoEvesBeauty.com . Best of luck! ~Michelle Heffner |

Thank you Michelle! The Container Store still has them online but they don't ship outside the US unfortunately, and Ricky's and Eve don't sell online. But maybe I can pursuade a friend on holiday to bring me back some.

OMG, with the exception of one of two of you all, you guys here sure do carry tons of stuff...do you actually use all of that? I couldnt imagine lugging HALF of that stuff around on a daily basis. Those of you that do are to be admired...
