Thank you U by Kotex for sponsoring today’s Handbag Must Haves.
There are a few things I have in my purse at all times that keep me prepared. Not all of them are life-changing, but maybe they are for some? Whether I am meeting someone for the very first time or Aunt Flo makes her expected but un-welcomed visit I want to have everything I need right at my fingertips. Handbag must haves are a real thing and I am about to fill you in on a few of mine.
Doesn’t matter if the weather is cold or hot, chapped lips are a real thing. I really love having a lip balm on hand and this Dior Lip Glow Color Reviver Balm actually leaves a pretty tint on your lips.
When I meet someone for the first time I am either going to shake their hand or probably hug them. I am a hugger. But when I am shaking someone’s hand I don’t want my hands to feel dry and scaly. Easy fix is to keep a hand cream in your bag at all times and apply a couple times a day. Not only will you have nailed a first impression but your hands will thank you.
I like to keep makeup wipes in my bag. They can come in handy for lots of things. They remove makeup really well, but they are also great to freshen up, I have cleaned my kids hands and faces with them after having lunch or dinner out at a restaurant, and they also come in handy for cleaning up a spill in a pinch. These Aveeno Positively Radiant ones are my current favorites.
I am sure you are all aware that I am a planner girl by now. I like having all the information I need at a moment’s notice and keeping your planner in your handbag will do just that. I like this personal size Filofax in Pink Fluoro because it is small, holds a lot of information and keeps me organized. Whether it is a to do list, grocery list, or doctor’s appointments, this planner has me covered.
And when that irritating Aunt Flo shows up on your doorstep, she usually does it at the most inconvenient of times. I am almost NEVER at home and you all know she can’t wait. Having these U by Kotex Clean Wear pads in my bag are A MUST. There is no negotiating that. I like these specifically too because the packaging is fun and hardly looks like it is a feminine care product at all. Check it out for yourself and get a free sample!
