My purse is my safe space. Are you a purse person? If you are anything like me, your purse contains your entire life, and leaving home without it makes you feel lost. In my purse you will find your typical everyday items: wallet, keys, lip gloss and etc. However there are 9 staple items you will always find in my purse that I recommend any purse lover to keep in theirs!
1. Sunglasses - You will always find at least 3 -4 pairs of different types of sunglasses in my purse. There are different looks that just match better with a certain type of sunglass. So I carry multiple to be always be prepared.
Black pair - Top right corner (Torrid.com)
Blue pair - Top left corner (Jimoptical.com)
Circular pair - Bottom left corner (BetsyJohnson.com)
Aviators - Bottom right corner (LaneBryant.com)
2. Vaseline - This travel sized vaseline has been a life saver when it's come to dry lips, ashy elbows, or a raw peeling nose. Target's travel section is my favorite when it comes to tiny sized toiletries.
3. City Skin™ Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA++++ (Murad.com) - Listen to your mama, put on sunscreen! I am not the best at always wearing it but I do try to incorporate it when I know I will be in the sun for a long period of time. My fellow black sistahs, we need to wear sunscreen too. Skin cancer can happen to anyone!
4. BENEFIT COSMETICS BADgal BANG! Volumizing Mascara Mini - This is by far the best mascara I have ever used. It lifts and separates every lash. If I had to choose to live with only one makeup item it would be, mascara. A bold lash will always enhance a look.
5. MARIO BADESCU Facial Spray With Aloe, Herbs and Rosewater - If you are looking for a quick mid-day re-fresher to your face or boost of hydration to you night skin care routine, I recommend this facial spray. It is light weight and leaves your skin feeling great!
6. FentyBeauty.com GLOSS BOMB Universal Lip Luminizer - Go out and get this now! This is the best lip gloss. The shine lasts all day and it really moisturizes your lip. The name speaks for it self because it looks great on everyone.
7. BathandBodyWorks.com Stress Relief - Eucalyptus & Spearmint PocketBac Hand Sanitizes - Keep your germs away from me! We are getting into the flu season so I definitely recommend keeping this on you. This is my favorite scent in a hand sanitizer. "Eucalyptus Essential Oil clears the mind. Spearmint Essential Oil soothes & uplifts"
8. Suave.com Powder Invisible Solid Women's Deodorant & Antiperspirant | Suave® - Always carry deodorant in your purse, trust me on that. Sometimes you just need quick little freshen up during the day.
9. Cakebeauty.com Delectable Coconut & Cream Triple Moisture Body Lotion - This lotion came from my one of my monthly Ipsy subscription packages. It never hurts to carry a good moisturizing hand lotion. You never know who you may meet, and who wants to shake hard rugged hands? This lotion is great because it is non-greasy and keeps my
hand soft with the added coconut, shea butter, and aloe vera.
