What’s In My Purse/Handbag
Hey, guys so today I am excited about this post because I love seeing these all over YouTube! Today I will be showing you what’s in my purse/handbag or what I probably should have in my handbag/purse. I don’t keep all of these in my purse, rather these are just ideas!

Makeup, Skincare & Hygiene
Instead of taking individual photos of each item, I grouped them into categories. So this one is makeup and skincare! Some really important things to include from this category are:
Chapstick:
I always forget to put this in my bag but since winter just wrapped up, I realized how important this is! Keeping your lips moisturized is very important. Applying it regularly can help prevent cracking and bleeding from happening! (Switched out to my candy apple Chapstick for all photos after this one since it was easier to put in my bag)
Hand sanitizer:
Do I need to explain this one? Especially since COVID is still around!
Mini hand lotion:
Just like chapped lips, chapped hands are no fun, they need care too! So moisturize them when needed.
Basic makeup
I know the struggle: you do this gorgeous makeup look then you go out to eat and all your lipstick washes off or you notice a huge flaw you made in your makeup process that morning. Create a basic on-the-go makeup for whatever suits your needs. Different makeup looks need different products to make them look good.
Pads, Tampons
Never know when your period may happen or when a friend asks if you have any extra supplies! There is nothing worse than stained underwear! Staying sanitary and having good hygiene makes you a much happier person so do yourself a favor and please remember these!
Hair ties
Hair bothers me sometimes and you just have to tie it out of your way to keep it from distracting you!
Devices and Technology
Phone
No one can leave the house without this! No, it’s not just the fact that we are addicted to them. This is also for our safety. Getting in an emergency is one of the scariest things. This is true for when you’re out and about or alone and having your phone on you to call someone for help.
Portable Charger:
You never know when you will be out and sometimes your phone isn’t prepared. It’s key to have it charged and ready but in case you don’t and conveniently go to a place with outlets available, you don’t want to regret not bringing it when you needed it!
Airpods
Need to get away from the noises in the public? Or maybe you just want to tune out the world! Be considerate of others and avoid adding to the noisiness by remembering your headphones.
Food & Drink
Mints/Gum
No one likes talking to someone with stinky breath! And if you know ahead of time that your breath smells bad, please pop in some gum!
Snack:
You’re out and about all day and you’re starving avoid your starvation by packing some already packed snacks for on the go!
Water
Staying hydrated is important for everyone so carry a mini-sized water bottle around or you know if you’re like me, the largest one you have works just as well!
Other
Notebook/pen
Never know when you might need to get someone’s phone number, address, or maybe an idea pops into your head! Well, now you cannot forget it!
Wallet
Oh, Don’t forget your wallet, but do I need to explain the reasoning behind it?…… I sure hope not! My wallet is a bright red Vera Bradley one which is so cute and adorable. I love it so much!
Small Compact Jacket
If you get cold easily, like me, then a small portable jacket will be necessary! Plus here in Wisconsin, the weather can fluctuate quite quickly if you didn’t know! Don’t worry I will be prepared!
Sunglasses
Protecting your eyes is as important as anything else! Don’t overexpose your eyes to harsh sunlight! Protect your eyes and please and remember to pack these!
