10 Beauty Products You Should Always Carry In Your Purse

To all the gracious ladies: no matter how much your makeup promises to stay perfect the whole day, does it really live up to that promise?

You may have seamlessly perfect winged liner and top-notch contoured cheekbones with some dusted shadows. But once you step out from your snuggly, comfy bedroom, everything becomes a mess.

Your foundation runs from sweating, your eye bags come out and you gobble up your lipstick with lunch just before the big client meeting.

You open your purse to fix yourself up, notice you have packed all the wrong stuff and end up on the verge of panic.

We are well aware of your hassles and rushed life. To help sort things out, we are introducing you to 10 must-have beauty products to keep in your purse at all times.

1. Blotting Paper

Turn your sloppy sweaty face to a matte one instantly with makeup blotting paper. It’s a savior for those with oily skin. No matter what brand of makeup you use, oily skin is something you can’t stop.

A good quality blotting paper acts as a magnet to greasiness. Pat your face to absorb sweat without ruining your makeup. This paper is a temporary solution to save you from a bad makeup day. Don’t forget to put a few pieces in your purse.

2. Tinted Lip Balm

In the sea of matte lipsticks, liquid lipsticks, stained lip balms, and chapsticks, there’s one product that complements all of them: the all-purpose tinted lip balm. It’s easy to use and fulfills the needs of your lips.

Swiping your lipstick haphazardly and getting it all over your teeth is not a new experience. Tinted lip balms can easily rescue you. Whenever you feel your lipstick is not being friendly, take out the tinted balm and moisturize your lips with it. It will both hydrate your lips and give them a warm shade of color.

3. Powder Foundation

When using both powder and liquid foundation, powder foundation is the trickiest part. For a fast makeup setting, everyone wants something that will serve many purposes, and here powder foundation comes.

Powder foundation will not only bring a glow to your face instantly but also fix any misplacement of your given foundation. It’s easy to apply and great for oily skin.

4. Mascara

To lengthen, darken or thicken your lashes for an intensified natural look, mascara’s importance is high. Mascara is a top pick for most women for an easy yet nurtured everyday look.

Carrying mascara could be handy for a few reasons. First, you’ll need it if your already applied mascara starts to run. Second, most importantly, if you make a sudden plan to meet someone or go to a big meeting, mascara is the first choice. It can do it all. Get the right kind of drama with mascara.

5. Facial Wipes

Messing up your cats-eye or smudging your lipstick all around your lips could be a very troubling situation. Sometimes fixing your makeup doesn’t help, but just ruins it more. That’s when you will be needing a facial wipe for emergency situations.

By using facial wipes, you can remove parts of makeup you don’t want to redo anymore. Sometimes heavy makeup can give you discomfort and you might want to get rid of it. In that case, wipe your face and use the other emergency beauty products in your purse to get a fast natural look.

6. Blush

You can’t just take your whole makeup kit in your purse for emergencies. You have to make wise choices about what products can serve you most efficiently. While you’re pondering over foundations and powders, a little thing you might be forgetting is blush.

Blush can give you an instant refreshed look without much rush. It can also fix the undone work of contour. Blush is very portable. You can use it on your eyes for instant parties, dates or meetings. It goes with everything.

7. Mini Hair Brush/Comb

Messy hair with perfect makeup is not the look you want. To avoid that, don’t forget to put a mini hairbrush in your purse.

Mini brushes are very portable and sometimes come with little mirrors as well. Depending on your hair type, use a brush or comb. Before facing someone important, use the brush on your hair and get that finished look.

8. Pocket Mirror

What if your Uber arrives while you’re still struggling with putting mascara on using the blurry makeup mirror attached to your powder foundation?

A mirror is something you think will be available everywhere, but what if you’re stuck someplace where a proper mirror isn’t available? Depending on other attached mirrors isn’t a good decision either.

It’s best to buy a cute pocket mirror to carry everywhere to check your face and to use for applying makeup.

9. Portable Perfumes

To increase your self-confidence and complete your look, nothing beats an attractive scented perfume. Many options are currently available if you search for the best perfume. Choose a scent that suits your personality best.

Pick your favorite scent and rush to put it in your purse. Take the smaller version so it fits inside. It’s something that’ll differentiate you in a crowd and make your personality stand out by your self-perceived attractiveness.

10. Other Small Things

Personality differs from one woman to another. Where one prefers vibrant red lipstick, others will opt for a simple chapstick. In respect to your choices and perspectives, you might need something that others won’t.

For example, those with long hair might want to always carry a hair band. Those who never want to lose glow from their faces might always carry highlighter.

Consider who you are and what you need, and then carry things according to that.

Finally…

At the end of the day, you might still feel like you could have brought more stuff with you. But you have a small purse you must work with, so choose your products wisely.
