What's In My Bag? - Winter 2020 Edition

Bag1

my “essentials” kit

Just a pocket of small on-the-go things I always carry: lip balm to combat chapped lips, plumping lip gloss for that perfect pout, lozenges for throat tickles, and fresh mints for after meals.

Pouch: DAVIDsTEA
Lip balm: Hurraw! Moon Lip Balm
Lip gloss: BUXOM Full-On Plumping Lip Cream (‘Hot Toddy’)
Throat lozenges: Fisherman’s Friend (‘Cherry’)
Mints: Mintia (‘Wild & Cool’)

Bag 2

hello, hygiene!

Always needed, not just during COVID-19 times. I love using the wipes as a refresher for my body during sticky summer weather.

Hand sanitizer: Purell Advanced (‘Spring Breeze’)
Facial tissues: Shoppers Drug Mart
Wipes: Cottonelle (100% biodegradable!)

Bag 3

small snacks

I have some stomach problems that requires me to snack throughout the day, so I always carry something small with me. The type of snack changes day-to-day, depending on my mood.

Nut bar: KIND Minis (‘Almond Caramel & Sea Salt’)
Nuts: Staminum (Roasted Baru nuts)

personal items

Pretty self-explanatory stuff here.

Keys + keyring: Save Elephant Love Keychain
Wallet: Kate Spade Slim Bifold Wallet
Coin purse: Coach

Bag 4

scents

A great refresher for when you’ve been sweating a little too much, or after being in a space with a lot of scents (I’m looking at you, food places - oh so delicious, but sometimes you come out smelling not the best). I’m not big on heavy and strong scents though, so something light like this is perfect!

Fragrance: Jo Malone (‘Wood Sage & Sea Salt’)
Body lotion: Le Labo (‘Rose 31’)

Bag 5

lips

Something nourishing, something fun, something for colour, and a plumping gloss to top it all off.

Plumping gloss: Pixi Beauty Liplift Max (‘Petal Ice’)
Intense lip balm: BABOR Lip Repair Balm
Universal skin salve: Glossier Birthday Balm Dotcom
Liquid lipstick: Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipstick (‘Allison’)

Bag First Aid

first aid care

Winter time = lots of cracked skin, unfortunately… so I always carry bandages with me. Extra painkillers for the days my flower suddenly decides to bloom while I’m out. And you never know when you’ll lose a contact (or if they get dirty), so I always carry extras!

Spare contacts: Coopervision MyDay toric
Eye drops: Thealoz Duo
Painkillers: Advil Liqui-Gel
A small assortment of bandages

a little extra tlc

Some little things to touch up my makeup & to keep my hair in place.

Blotting paper: Boscia Black Charcoal Blotting Linens
Hair elastics: Invisibobble Slim (‘Bronze Me Pretty’, ‘True Black’)
Mascara: Buxom Xtrovert Mascara

the final touches

I never go anywhere without my bullet journal; it’s where I keep my schedule, to-do list, and it’s the perfect place to jot down or doodle notes and interesting facts along the way. Earphones for listening to music in the car/on public transit, and then my favourite face mist to freshen things up (+ hydrate!).

Bullet journal: Leuchtturm 1917 - Hardcover A5 Dotted Notebook (‘Anthracite’)
Earphones: Beats by Dr. Dre urBeats3 (‘Defiant Black-Red’)
Face spray: Caudalie Grape Water
