THE HANDBAG ESSENTIALS

Leaving the house without certain items can lead to many inconveniences and even embarrassment. This is especially true for women, who often have to juggle a number of items when they're on the go. This blog post will discuss the essential things every woman should have in her handbag before leaving the house.

Handcream

This is an absolute necessity, especially in the winter months when the cold air can leave your hands feeling dry and chapped. Be sure to choose a hand cream that is non-greasy and quickly absorbed.

Tissues

No matter where you are going or what you are doing, tissues are always a good idea to have on hand. You never know when you might need them, whether it's for blowing your nose or wiping away a spill.

Lipbalm

Lip balm is another essential item, especially in the colder months when the air can be harsh and dry. Choose a lip balm with SPF protection to protect your lips from the sun's harmful rays. 

Disposable Face Masks

With the current COVID-19 pandemic, having a few disposable face masks in your handbag is more important than ever. This will ensure that you are always prepared if you find yourself in a situation where you need to wear one. You can shop disposable facemasks online or at your local pharmacy.

Hand Sanitiser

Hand sanitiser is a must-have item in your handbag. This will help keep your hands clean and free of bacteria, especially if you find yourself in a situation with no soap and water available. Be sure to choose a hand sanitiser that is at least 60% alcohol for the best results.

Snacks

If you are prone to getting hungry, it is always a good idea to have some snacks on hand. This will help to tide you over until you can find time to eat a proper meal. Choose healthy snacks such as fruits and nuts that will give you sustained energy throughout the day.

Emergency Cash

You never know when you might need some extra cash, so it's always a good idea to have some on hand. This is especially true if you find yourself in a situation where you need to take a taxi or make a purchase but don't have your credit or debit card with you.

Pen and Paper

A pen and paper are always helpful to have, whether you need to jot down a phone number or address or you find yourself in a situation where you need to write a note.

First Aid Kit

A small first-aid kit is always a good idea to have in your handbag. This will come in handy if you or someone else sustained a minor injury and you need to clean and dress the wound. 


These are just some essential items every woman should have in her handbag before leaving the house. Be sure to pack any other items you might need for your specific destination or activity. By being prepared, you can avoid any unnecessary inconvenience or embarrassment.
