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!

Glossy Box Reveal.





I can't believe it's been a year since my first glossy box! So I thought I'd do a glossy box reveal, since I haven't done one in a while!
For once I have received a glossy box full of stuff which I will actually use and not just shove in the bottom of my make up drawer to forget about! So here is a description of what I got and the prices!

      
 

Bellapierre Cosmetics Minteral Lipstick.

I've never heard of this brand before so I'm excited to try this lipstick out! This is in the shade Cat Walk, it's more of a peach shade but got pink shimmer tones through it. I think this is beautiful and glides on your lips gorgeously! This is perfect for summer as it includes Vitamin C and Vitamin E and also protects lips against the sun, which most people forget to do, as lips can burn to!




Colour Club | Glossy Seal

I have never owned or seen a shade like this before! I completely fell in love with it when I opened up my box this month! I only applied one coat and it looked flawless but an extra few coats wouldn't harm either! I'm going to wear this to work now and hope that it doesn't chip, and keep you posted on it. This is a glossy box exclusive but why not go on and look at all the shades, I'll be definitely buying more! 



 ABSOLUTE New York Eyeshadow Primer

This is the second eye shadow primer I own. My go to primer is the Urban Decay Primer Potion so I'm definitely going to try this and see if this is just as good! This is a cheaper alternative so yet again I will keep you updated on what I think of it. 





Carmex Lip Balm

This wont be a stranger to most of you as this is a very popular lip balm. This is my go-to lip balm as I don't particularly like Vaseline, It's just too slimy and greasy for my liking.  So excited to have another tin to keep in my handbag! The link I'm leaving to buy it has a 3 for 2 on Carmex at the moment so definitely check that out!


 
Dr Bronner's Magic Liquid Soap

I've not used this yet, but might give it a bash and see what's it's like. It doesn't smell the nicest but it's full of organic products and also safe to use on babies too! So it must not be that bad! 



Have you used OR going to use any of these products?
