Everyday essentials

So the other day I was looking through my handbag and realised that I almost never go out without a few (for me) essential things. What do you carry around in your bag every day?



1. A good book is definitely one of my must haves when I'm travelling or go into town. Is there anything better than lounging around at Starbucks with your favorite book? My current favourite is 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower' by Stephen Chbosky.

2. Balea mini deodorant ($2)

3. Tory Burch patent leather purse, which I bought at Bloomingdales 1.5 years ago. Still in love with it and the quality is top-notch! ($150)

4. Last summer I purchased a lot of new make-up from the Sephora own-brand and I highly recommend their products! I either use the Sephora matifying compact foundation ($20) or the liquid foundation (6, $22). The Chanel mascara ($35) is another of my beauty basics at the moment, although I personally think that the Diorshow mascara is better for fuller lashes.

5. MAC blush brush (special edition, $40): Although a MAC brush costs around 35-70 Euro, it is definitely worth the purchase. So soft and I'm pretty sure it's an investment for a long long time!

7. Lolita Lempicka and Aura by Swarovski (came with my Glossybox), hand-mirror by Marc Jacobs (which was only 7$!!)

8.  Burt's Bees Almond Milk Beeswax Hand Cream (which I also use for my lips), YES to carrots lip butter (my absolute favourite for dry lips, also available as melon, berry, citrus and mint!), MAC hot pink lipstick for instant glamour effect ($22)

9. Sephora liquid eyeliner ($12)


10. Florena macadamia hand lotion for dry hands ($5) and OF COURSE a bit of chocolate because who doesn't love chocolate? ;)

Much love,
Franzi
