Hello Lovely Readers!
Today’s blog post is going to be about my handbag
essentials. I believe it is
important to always carry some essential items in your handbag before you leave
for the day, so here are my must haves.
- Anti-bacterial Hand Wipes – I have the WetOnes brand. These wipes are always handy when I finish up after my lunch or for one of those messy days.
- Oil Absorbing Wipes – These wipes are useful for those really humid days and also for anyone who has oily skin and wants to keep it under control.
- Tissue – It is always a good idea to keep some in your bag or to buy those convenient Kleenex packs, which fit into any purse.
- La Fresh Wipes – These wipes have been an absolute savior, I currently have the “deodorant for women” wipe in my bag but they have plenty of varieties to choose from.
- Hand Sanitizer – working with children all day I am constantly washing my hands and applying hand sanitizer. Also, germs are always present wherever you go and it’s nice to be a little protected with clean hands. I use Bath & Body Works Hand Sanitizers and they also have really cute holders that you can buy to go with them.
- Gum – It is always nice to have fresh smelling breath and just something to refresh your mouth and chewing on gum can also keep you away from unnecessary snacking. Currently Chewing: Trident Layers in Fresh Peppermint
- Pad/Panteliner – Sometimes you just have to be prepared for those moments and keeping an extra pad in your bag will just save you on those unexpected days. On a side note I store mine in an super cute holder which I got from www.shopglitzyglam.com
- Purse size Perfume – It is always nice to smell good throughout the day and purse size perfumes or even sample sizes are perfect to fit into any purse or clutch. Juicy Couture has a gift set that comes with 3 purse size perfumes and is a perfect way to try their amazing scents.
- Hand Cream – Moisturizing your hands keep them healthy and young looking and help them from cracking and feel dry.
- A pocket mirror – I got my pocket mirror from the UK at Marks and Spenser and I absolutely love the packaging of it. It is always nice to take out a cute mirror while fixing your makeup.
- Compact Powder – I don’t always carry a compact powder however when I do I like to carry my Maybelliene powder which is good for touch ups or I carry my MAC Mineralized Skin finish Natural.
- Headphones – Whenever on the go and whenever I have some spare time I like to pull out my headphones and listen to my Ipod.
- Sunglasses – Living in such a sunny country I find myself reaching for my sungalsses more often. Also, wearing sunglasses protects your eyes from the sun’s rays and just adds sophistication to any look.
- Pen – I always find that when I need a pen it is never in my bag, which is why I now keep pens in every bag I know.
- A small clip and a Hair tie – I cannot tell you how many times I have lost or broken my hair tie and had not a spare one insight. I now always keep a small clip and hair tie for those days.
- My favorite tea – I have an obsession with any kind of tea and I always keep a single tea bag packet in my bag for those days that I just need a cup of tea on the go or while I am working. My current favorite: Twinning’s Pomegranate Black Tea, smells so good and tastes just as good!
- Lip Balm – I always carry either lip balm or a Lip gloss as I find my lips tend to get dry and it’s always good to keep them moisturized. Current Lip product: EOS Lip Balm.
- Medication – Last but not least I always like to carry some advil with me in case I get an unexpected headache. I also keep gravol and allergy medication because I do sometimes feel nauseous and you never know when allergies pop up. I also keep after bite wipes with me because I live in the land of mosquitoes and always find myself getting bitten by these pests.
Hope you enjoyed a little insight into my handbag
essentials.
