Decided to do a post on Bag Essentials, well what I think you need in a bag.
This is a lengthy post, but keep reading, gets good to the end.
1. Make-up Bag- I take my make-up bag with me wherever I go, and is necessary if your going to be out all day, for touch ups. Putting all your make-up in a bag, stops your bag getting make-up stains.
2. Compact Mirror- A mirror goes alongside your make-up bag, so you can check up on your make-up and to see that you haven't got eyeliner spread across your cheeks.
3. Shine Control Paper- If you can't be bothered to cake on more powder, blotting paper is quite good, to get rid of that mirror like shine on your forehead and nose.
4. Hairbrush- A hairbrush is ESSENTIAL especially when you have a weave or a "bad" weave to keep your hair from looking a tangly mess, the scarecrow look ain't pretty.
5. Hand-cream- I have such dry hands, so I always have to have some cream with me, especially after I've washed my hands.
6. Anti-bacteria Hand gel- Moving on from washing hands, if that's not possible for you when your out and about, a hand sanitiser is necessary, especially if you decide to eat.
7. Nail Polish Remover Pads- Nail polish never lasts long on me and I don't actually realise how bad they look until I have left the house.
8. Lip Balm- You need to moisturise your lips, especially if your going to wear some lipstick, there's nothing worse than seeing lipstick ontop of cracked up lips.
9. Tissues- I think I have health issues, I have a runny nose all year round. I feel lost without my tissues, because I don't really like to sniff. I laugh a lot, laughing and a runny nose don't mix. Tissues are also really helpful if you've spilled something or need to clean something.
10. Stain Remover Wipes- This one isn't really essential, but thought I add it in. It's quite useful if you have a little accident whilst out eating or sit somewhere where you shouldn't have.
Other essentials:
Mobile Phone- Sometimes I wonder what people ever did before mobile phones, I feel like I don't exist when I don't have my phone, because I can't get in touch with anyone. It's not just a phone, it's a clock, it's a planner, and it's a notepad....ermm moving on.
Purse- You need your purse wherever you are, in case of any emergencies, I don't like borrowing money off people.
Bodyspray- You don't want to be smelling funky, especially if you have to lift up your arm in the bus/tube.
