I think the answer is B

Which sentence is punctuated correctly? A. Be prepared to carry these items: water, clothes, a sleeping bag, and food. B. Rosa's art drawer is full of: paints, brushes, sketch pads, and markers. C. My older sister's makeup bag holds: a mirror, powder, mascara, blush, and brushes. D. The play's ticket lists: the name of the play, the date, the start time, and the price.

Answers

The answer is C.
Due to the fact that the apostrophy in sister's needs to be there. Since the makeup bag belongs to the sister. (its showing ownership)
And the : (the dots so to speak) need to be there because it shows what the bag contains. Along with the commas, its showing a list, therefore when one is trying to list something, you continue the list by useing the commas.

~Hope this helped :)
it is C, because you are referring to the items in the makeup bag, where A is giving you instructions, so there is no need for :.
