Regardless of how you spend your days, there are certain makeup products every woman needs in her purse. These items are not only great for skincare and quick touch-ups, but they can also save you from embarrassment.
Here are the five must have makeup to keep in bag :
1. Lip Balm
Lip balm is one of the most important beauty product for women — you probably even carried it in your first purse as a little girl. Lips are sensitive and are prone to dryness, cracking, and peeling. As such, it’s important to always have your favorite balm handy in your purse to save yourself from dry lips.
2. Hand cream
To prevent hands from getting dry, it’s essential that you make a habit out of applying hand cream throughout the day. As an added bonus, many great hand creams double as a perfume, so you should apply all the way up to your wrists.
3. Concealer
Concealer is best used sparingly, but it’s highly effective for brightening the gray area under your eyes and hiding blemishes. A hydrating concealer is recommended since the product is typically applied to the thin skin around your eyes.
4. Compact
The compact is one of the easiest makeups to apply on the go. Whether you’re in a taxi or even briskly walking, a small powder compact can carefully be opened and applied. Using very little powder can make a huge difference in evening out your skin tone, covering blemishes, and absorbing oil. Plus, you won’t have to worry about it spilling inside your purse as you would with a liquid foundation.
5. Mascara
Mascara is one of those products that are likely to smudge or wear off over the course of a day. Whether it’s rained, you’re sweating, or you accidentally rubbed your eyes, it’s highly likely you’ll need to reapply it at some point. Always keep a tube of mascara in your purse so you can refresh and brighten your eyes any time of day.
