My Top 5 Handbag Beauty Essentials.

When you're a girl you can't just leave your house with your keys and a purse, you have to leave with a massive handbag full of your daily essentials. Myself on the other hand realised having a big handbag meant a lot more things you didn't need. So, I downsized. Here are my Top 5 Handbag beauty essentials, baring in mind this does not include my make up bag! 

Tangle Teezer | Everyone needs to have one of these, or five. My hair gets tuggy very easy especially living next to the sea so it's a must that I take this with me everywhere I go. It's the best £10.99 I ever spent. A little pricey but definitely worth it!

COLAB Dry Shampoo | I used to swear by Batiste dry shampoo until I finally found this in Superdrug on special offer! A lot of youtubers and beauty bloggers have been raving about this and I completely understand why. I feel this dry shampoo actually works and does wonders to my hair and leaves no white mark on my hair after like Batiste does. You get them in different scents, but Paris and Tokyo are my definite favourites.

Chanel | Chance Perfume | When I wear this I spend at least a good few minutes standing there smelling how good it is. Chance is definitely one of my favourite perfumes I own even if I don't want to use it because of the price tag. Every girl needs an expensive perfume and I'd definitely try this out before anything else.

Urban Outfitters Holographic Nail Polish | Unfortunately they don't sell the nail polish I own but they do have two new holographic nail polishes out in 'Ariel' and 'Disco Fever'. Out of every nail polish I own (which is a lot) this is my favourite!  I take this everywhere with me, and in my personal opinion it doesn't chip easily.

Carmex | I've started using this again as in the winter months I suffer from a lot of colds which leads to my lips being chapped. I used to use vaseline which is probably the worst lip product I have tried and I find now that carmex does the job perfectly!

CHANEL | Les 4 Ombres Palette | Tissé Vénitien

I recently went on a massive shopping spree and picked up this little beauty from House of Fraser. As soon as I tried these colours I knew I'd be walking out the shop with this in my hand! 

I picked this because of the smokey and metallic shades, and I know metallic shades make my blue eyes stand out. I was however unsure of this at first as I never use blue eye shadows but I thought I'd go out my comfort zone and try something different.  

This palette is available here or at any other high end make up stores. You can get this palette in other shades and they also come in different effects, matte, satin, and metallic. They also glide on smoothly and don't crease. It is a little pricey at £40 but every girl needs to splurge and this definitely is worth the money. This palette is a compact size with a good sized mirror and comes with two eye shadow applicators and a black Chanel sleeve. 

Do you have a Chanel palette and if so which one? Would love to know other ones I can try out!

Mascara | LE VOLUME DE CHANEL

For Christmas tucked away in my stocking was a small CHANEL box with this little beauty in it! It is a tester, so was free, but i'm still 100% grateful as my parents had to spend a certain amount to get this! I've always wanted to try this out, but spending £24 on a mascara was a little pricey, especially if i bought it and didn't like it! 

I've used this for 3 weeks now, and there's no going back! I'm in love with this, it's like my child, i carry it everywhere with me! I have had some compliments as well which is always a good thing as it then shows it's doing it's job properly! You can buy this from Debenhams as that's where i got this from, or any other stores which has a CHANEL. I'm definitely going to be buying the full size now! 

Have you tried CHANEL mascara? What do you think?
