What to Pack in Your Makeup Bag Before Going Into Labor

BareMinerals eye shadow looks like a powder but feels more like a cream. And a little goes a long way. In fact, I find just one swipe of any long-wear shade provides enough pigment so there's no need for multiple coats. I love the compact with four shadows ($31), which I use on my lid, crease, and right under my brow bone. Another perk? The shades are formulated with cucumber to reduce puffiness (an affliction that mommys-to-be and new moms know too well) and lack parabens, binders, fillers, and synthetic chemicals.
