I use just one of the smaller pouches that are within Joy Mangano's travel roll-up beauty cases (on HSN). There are 3 pouches in each case, and I find it's easiest to just keep one stocked with my everyday touch up essentials - whatever makeup I'm wearing that day, tampons, nail file, clippers, tweezers, lip balm, travel pack of Advil, etc.
I switch out the makeup daily, depending on what I'm wearing, but the other items are mainstays. Those JM cases are great, because you can remove the pouches individually to serve whatever purpose you need. I use one of the larger pouches to store my flat iron and styling accessories in my work desk, in case I make dinner plans and need to touch-up my hair. They're awesome!

I used to carry it all with me, but rarely really needed it. And you're right -- it was SO heavy and cumbersome.
Now I just take a concealer, mascara, powder and lipstick. Usually if I need to glam it up at the end of the day for some reason, I'll toss in a shadow and brow whatever-I'm-using-at-the-time.
I have a round faux leather tube-shaped thing (zipper down the length of it) maybe 7" long and 2.5" - 3" in circumference. It's great! Got it at Fred Meyer years ago and recently was looking to replace it but no luck -- so I'm on the hunt for a new one.

Lipstick and powder is all I carry.

I keep a couple shades of lipstick & a lip balm in a little makeup bag along with a folding brush/mirror and nail clippers & a crystal nail file. That is all.

Spot cover and lipgloss/stick.

I've never understood why women carry all that cr*p with them. I've never even OWNED a makeup bag!
To answer the question, I carry my current lipstick, a lip balm, a compact with a magnifying mirror, a nail file, a bandaid (for a broken nail emergency) and a comb. I rarely use the comb. It all fits in the inside zipper pocket of my purse.

I carry an average size cosmetics bag with lipstick, balm, nail clippers, file, floss, Josie Maran travel sized hand cream and a travel medicine bottle. Oh and hair clips.

I don't have a job, so usually don't even carry a purse for a trip to the store. Drivers License & card with a lipstick in my back jean pocket. When I worked, I carried a lot of stuff, and that made for a heavy handbag. All those little items add up to quite a bit of extra weight.
