What's in the Bag? With Eli-Mac

Snag the reggae queen’s essentials and bring her iconic style into your daily mix—links provided to keep it fresh.

Eli-Mac is known for her effortless blend of cool vibes and serious style, and when it comes to her essentials, she keeps it real, functional, and just a touch quirky.”I’m a fanny pack kind of girl,” she says, laughing off the idea of a purse. “[A Purse] feels weird for me, but other girls look cute with it. I wish I could rock that style, but…”

True to her style, Eli-Mac kicks off her rundown with her absolute essentials. First up? Her wallet—compact and ready for action. Next, her signature makeup item, the Revlon ColorStay Eyeliner, her go-to for that ultra-sharp wing that’s practically part of her brand. “Sharper the wings,” she jokes, “the downer the fool.” And when it comes to her brows, it’s all about that “maybe she’s born with it, maybe it’s Maybelline” vibe, as she puts it. Brows on point, eyeliner on fleek—that’s the Eli-Mac way.

Of course, no look is complete without the right shades, and Eli-Mac reps her sponsor 9Five Sunglasses to keep things “fresh with the lokes.” With an outfit that wouldn’t be complete without her trench, her lokes, and a hat, she even gives us a mini serenade about it. It’s clear she keeps her style as tight as her rhythm.

And then, for that extra splash of finesse, Eli-Mac shares her scent of choice: Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue, which she swears by. “It’s fire,” she says, and her fans would agree—it’s all about smelling good for those hugs and meet-and-greets. “People give you a hug and they’re like, ‘Wow, you smell so good!’”

The finishing touches? A mix of the essentials topped off with some personal flair: Aquaphor, “super important” for lips, skin, and even taming baby hairs; her lipstick; a Beanie Baby keychain named Tasha, or “Tasha Washa”; and, of course, a David Buster card, because why not? Eli-Mac’s bag tells the story of her vibe—practical, unique, fun, and always ready to keep it fresh.
