Hey guys!
The past week has been so hectic for me. I've been working loads and I finally booked my driver theory test!
I have been asked a few times to do a post like this as 'What's in my Makeup Bag' was such a hit when I did it last year! I do change my bag quite often but at the moment I'm using my Michael Kors Rhea bag in a metallic gold colour.
The bag itself has since been discontinued in this colour but that style is still available in loads of colours on the Michael Kors website. My bag is medium, which retails for $298 and I do not think the larger size is necessary as this fits everything I need into it and more!
Victoria's Secret Passion Struck Flirt
I always keep some sort of perfume in my handbag and for the past few weeks have been using this Victoria Secret mist while I'm out. I bought this about a year ago so it's almost gone but I love the musty scent this mist has!
Victoria Secret mists are fabulous and with the store coming to Dublin in the coming months, I will definitely be stocking up on more!
The mists are available from the VS website until then and prices start at €22.14.
TY Beanie Boo Baby Seal
I love this little seal and love having it in my bag because it makes me smile every time I open my bag. It's small enough that it doesn't take up too much room but it's really cute to look at (not just because my boyfriend bought it for me 😂).
Beanie Boos are available to buy from most Easons stores nationwide!
Benefit Bad Gal Mascara
I love this mascara because it doesn't clump when applied and it hardly flakes throughout the day! I always keep it in my bag in case I need a touch-up during the day.
Over the last few days though, I have misplaced my mascara and need a new staple in my bag! I love the brush so much because it is full and thick and have yet to find another mascara that I love as much!
Bad Gal is available from Benefit Boutiques and concession stands nationwide for €23.
Blistex Happy Lips Mango
I always have a lip balm in my bag or in my pocket when I'm in work because you never know when you may need one! At the moment, I am using a blistex's happy lips in mango. The lip balm lasts for hours without turning sticky and the mango scent lingers on your lips which I love!
The lip balm is available from most Boots stores and also comes in a lovely strawberry flavour, both retailing for €3.79.
Essence All About Matt Powder
I bought this powder originally last summer and have since repurchased it because I love it so much! As it's translucent, the powder does not add any colour to your face and
fixes any shiny spots that managed to creep through your makeup!
Essence is such a budget friendly brand and this powder is one of the best I have used! It definitely helps to keep your makeup matte and in place throughout the day.
The All About Matt powder is available from Sam McCauley's for €3.80.
Taylor Swift Wonderstruck Perfume
I am such a fiend for having more than one of something in my purse but I cannot go anywhere without Wonderstruck! If you have followed me for a while, then you'll know that this is my signature scent and will always be my favourite perfume!
This handy little 30ml bottle is perfect for my bag and I can easily spritz some on my wrists and hair (I love getting a whiff of the perfume when I move my hair throughout the day) if I need to!
Wonderstruck has been so difficult to come by over the past year and I received some as a present from America at Christmas!
Technic Setting Spray
The lovely team over at Technic sent me this setting spray a few months ago and I'm sad to say it's almost gone. Having it in my bag is so handy because if I feel my makeup is becoming shiny at any point during the day, I'll shake the bottle up and spritz some on my face!
The bottle is so small and easy to stow in my bag which I love! You can check out all of the products Technic have to offer over on their website!
Earphones
Another absolute must have in my handbag has to be earphones! Whether I'm walking to work or on the bus, I am lost without my earphones!
I am constantly listening to music and am instantly in a bad mood if I realise I have an hour journey and no earphones to keep me occupied on the bus!
Michael Kors Wallet
Last but not least is my wallet! I received this gorgeous Michael Kors wallet for Christmas and love it so much! It's maroon, one of my favourite colours and also matches the Selma bag I got for my 18th!
As it was a gift, I do not know how much it was or the style name, but Michael Kors have an extensive range of wallets on their website!
That's everything I currently have in my handbag!
Do you have any of the same things in yours?
What is your handbag must-have?

Ciara,
