Ladies Handbag essentials are super necessary for women. Being a woman is a job. Isn’t it? The number of things you have to do and the number of things that are required to get that done is almost impossible at times.
The same goes for every time you have to step out of the house and the number of items you have to carry.
If you are studying or working, it is almost unimaginable to carry a small bag and have all your essentials inside it. But as I like to say, planning smart takes you places.
While you can’t be Hermione from Harry Potter carrying everything in her purse, you can have items that you need every day for yourself at least.
So, what should be in your list of handbag essentials? and what can be outside in the ‘just in case’ items box when you don’t have enough space to carry it along. This list will help you make your purse a lifesaver with everything you require in times of need:
List Of Simplest Ladies Handbag essentials
Travel Pack of Tissues
I find it the most useful, especially since the Covid has made us all more hygiene conscious and finicky about everything.
Carrying a travel pack of tissues can always help in case of unexpected spills, the sudden outburst of allergies, and cleaning a park bench at your routine walk. Not going out with tissues should just be a cardinal sin.
These are only few reasons a travel pack of tissues is on every list of Ladies Handbag essentials.
Travel Sanitizer
This is another item among Ladies Handbag essentials, that goes without saying. If your purse does not have enough space or even if it does, I recommend you buy a hanging sanitizer case, so your purse looks stylish, you save some space inside, and have your sanitizer with you all the time as well.
And while we are at it, don’t forget to sanitize your hands because you still ought to save yourself from the raging pandemic that has forgotten to end.
Hair Band
Hairband, pony, or hair elastic is a tiny miracle. It is most simple yet very necessary Item in Ladies Handbag essentials. After the end of the workday when you are feeling the summer hotness and your long hair is bothering you, this elastic will help you tie them on your way back home.
An elastic will always come in handy so either this or a hair clip should be always in your purse.
Hairbrush
Now before you say that a brush will take a lot of space, what are travel-sized items made for?
Almost every woman has a hairbrush in their bag, so a smart move would be to invest in a small-sized one and keep it in your bag with you so you can brush through your hair and keep them tangle-free throughout the day.
Feminine Hygiene Products
You never know when mother nature might decide to change its course and come a little early. For all your period issues, you must keep whichever hygiene product you use in your bag.
This should top in the list for every Ladies Handbag essentials because it is almost a must to not leave home without them.
Deodorant
Again, get yourself a travel-sized deodorant or a rollerball of your favorite perfume. It is an important item if you sweat a lot.
While you might wear perfume before leaving home, having a small one in your bag will help you touch it up when you leave the bus all sweaty and fear that you might smell in your office.
It will help you smell free and feeling fresh throughout the day. A deodorant is a must on our list of Ladies Handbag essentials.
Lipstick
A lipstick is another among Ladies Handbag essentials. A lipstick can double up as so much. Even if you wear waterproof lipstick, these masks have a way of messing up with everything.
Keep a light-colored or your favorite lipstick in your bag all the time and it cannot only be used for its original purpose, but you can do decent makeup including eye shadow and a cheek tint with it.
So, if there if the office colleagues decide to hang out somewhere after work, you can do your makeup and freshen up just with the help of your lipstick.
A Multi-purpose Wallet
Well, you might say why would I leave home without my wallet but hear me out. We all need cards and cash when we leave home so a wallet is a must on Ladies Handbag essentials.
Save yourself some space in your purse and to keep these significant items together, invest in a multi-purpose wallet.
Buy a small wallet that can house your keys, cards, and cash all together without taking a lot of space.
Pills Or Medication
This isn’t a must, but if you are allergic to something or carries an inhaler, always keep one in your purse.
Separate these from your usual items so you know you never run out of them in case of emergencies.
For women, I recommend keeping some menstrual cramps pain reliever so if you have a long day and your periods decide to show up, you can instantly take the medicine for pain relief.
Power Bank Or Charger
Another Ladies Handbag essentials item is a power bank especially these days. We can almost not live without phone these days.
Either keep your charger or if you run out of battery a lot and do not have a charging port with you most of the time, a power bank with you so you can always charge your phone on the go without worrying about your battery giving up on you.
Band-Aids
Even though one Band-Aid would be enough in case of emergencies, I recommend keeping two.
The reason is that sometimes when you wear new shoes, they tend to get uncomfortable and scratch the back of your feet.
In that case, instead of hurting yourself and being unable to wear shoes properly for a few days, you can instantly use these Band-Aids to protect the back of your feet.
The bonus? They don’t even take any space and you can even keep a packet without putting a burden on your shoulder. Plus, they will also help you in case you cut yourself and you are bleeding.
These were some of the absolute Ladies Handbag essentials that should be in your purse all the time. If you have a bigger bag, make sure you buy a small purse or a makeup pouch and keep all these inside the bag to separate them from the other times you have.
In case you need them instantly, you can always reach out to that separate pouch or purse and use them instantly.
If you have another holy grail for your purse that you recommend other women too, comment and we would like to include that too here.
