It's been a while since we've addressed the contents of my handbag around these parts so I thought I had better rectify this! I'm currently using a Faith Satchel Bag, I would describe it as a over the shoulder bag that is of a medium size for an over the shoulder bag. It can hold a surprisingly large amount of stuff, I'm talking everything in the picture and a bottle of water if need be. I love this bag and am always getting complimented on it, which is a sure fire sign that it looks nice too. Let's delve in and go through all of the stuff I carry around.
Lip Products
Six lip products is pretty standard for me, sad I know. I tend to put on a lipstick at home and then throw it in my bag to touch up throughout the day, then just leave it there for a couple of weeks. This particular selection is a good representation of what I am enjoying at the moment but they're all in the same colour family, making it totally pointless to carry them all around. I have my Body Shop Vanilla Brulee Lip Balm, which is a must. Then I have the slightly tinted Revlon Lip Butter in Sugar Frosting. Getting into the pinky nude family is MAC Creme Cup. Bite Beauty Luminous Creme Lipstick in Fig is my new absolute favourite so of course that has to make an appearance. Finally there is my Chanel combo of Rouge Allure Lipstick in Surprenante and Rouge Allure Gloss in Extase.
Other Beauty Products and Things For Your Wellbeing
Being the Grandma I am, there is always tissues and bandaids in my bag. As well as that I carry the Dettol Healthy Touch Instant Hand Sanitiser and the Soap and Glory Hand Food, to ensure that I have clean, soft hands at all times. On top of that I have a Manicare Nail File as a final precaution to take care of my hands completely. I get the occasional crippling migraine so I bring some medication to take care of them if they attack. A hair tie is always a necessity, as are breath fresheners. My favourite gum is Extra Active with Dual Crystal Strips and Listerine Pocket Packs are just amazing too.
The Usual Suspects
It couldn't be a what's in my bag without some of those things that we all carry around with us. Of course I have a wallet, mine is from the brand Mocha and I've been thoroughly enjoying it for over six months now which I think is a record. I have my keys on a cute Dopey Keychain I bought at Disney World. My Tahari Sunglasses were also picked up in America. Then I've got a pen and a movie ticket, as you do.
Technology
I have a tendency to forget to put an SD Card in my camera when I go places so I've taken to keeping a spare in my bag just in case. Plus it's in a spiffy case which is pretty cool. When I go to friends or families houses I always have a need for a USB Stick so I take one with me for when need be. I have my iPhone 5c and a portable charger to go along with it. Finally I have my iPod and my Sony Noise Cancelling Headphones for when I feel like listening to some tunes.
I know, I carry around too much stuff but to me it all seems 100% necessary (bar the movie ticket).
Lots of Love,
Shannon
