Silver Compact Mirror- Obviously a mirror is quite an essential for me as I like to check my makeup hasn't run off or if my hair is out of place or I've just eaten and need to check if there's any food around my mouth. I don't know where you can get this from as I actually got this from my mum.
Maybelline Baby Lips in Melon Mania- I carry this lip balm round with me anywhere because I really like it as it's very moisturising and also smells really nice and both are an essential for me. This one is also very compact so it means I can fit any more essentials with me if I want but I don't want to!
Extra Gum- I do like a smelly bag of crisps now and again so I need some gum to make sure I have nice breath. This pack has obviously seen better light of day and I only have about 3 left so I need to get some more (I might get a pot for my bag) or get some TicTacs as I really like them.
P.S. Love Anti Bac Hand Gel- I personally think hand sanitizer is an essential because the world can be yucky and I do like being very clean so this helps me a lot. Right now I have a boring one with a boring scent but I have replacements for when this is finished so I have a Strawberry & Raspberry one and a Bubble gum one!
Hairbands- I don't tie my hair up a lot but in my on-the-go essential bag I like to have a spare especially for PE and sometimes science or if someone else needs one. I just like to have these floating around the bottom as I never know when I'll need one.
Sweet Lips Lip Balm in Coconut Frosting- My sister Georgia gave this to me when she got 2 free in a magazine when I had really chapped lips and now I just keep it in my essentials bag. I don't use much as the Baby Lips is on the top and I prefer that one as it's more moisturising.
Nail File- My nails are literally the worst so I like to have a nail file on the go with me as they like to break on me so I can file them into a good shape as they always break weirdly. I got this nail file free when a bunch of career people came into my school and they handed out free nail files.
Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer- I like to have a concealer on me in case a spot breaks out and I need to cover it. The concealer I have in there right now is the only one I like and that's the Collection Lasting Perfection concealer because it stays for a long time and has good coverage.
Barry M Showgirl Extra Volume Mascara- This is probably my favourite mascara ever so I like to have it on me as sometimes I don't put on my mascara at the beginning of the day so in case I want to put it on so I like to have it. This volumizes and lengthens my lashes so it's good to have
Elastoplast Fabric Strapping- This is a bit of a weird thing but I like to have some plasters because I'm always accidentally cutting myself or my nails break so I have some strapping currently which is better than plasters. Sorry for taking your time talking about plasters!
Carex Complete Fun Edition Strawberry Laces Wipes- It's always good to have some wipes because you never know when you will need them so currently I have this Carex pack which smell like strawberry laces. It is a bit weird using these to take off makeup as they smell strongly but I like the smell when you open the pack.
Batiste Floral & Fruity Blush Dry Shampoo 50ml- Dry shampoo is definately an essential sometimes so I have this little one in here. I'm currently using a different 50ml one as my actual one but when that runs out I'll use this one- the large bottles of Batisite is quite expensive so I just buy the small ones.
2x Pads- You never really know when you're going to get your period so obviously all girls know to have their pads or tampons on them so I keep 2 in here for emergencies. I do keep some in my bag and I actually have one in my other essential bag but I forgot to take a picture of it.
Impulse Romantic Spark Violet & White Wood Body Fragrance- This has just become my scent for my essential bag as whenever I finished one I always buy a new one of this scent. I do have some other body fragrances but I keep them out on my dresser to spray them before I leave the house.
Bumble & Bumble BB Thickening Hairspray- I've seriously had this forever but it is taking to finish and to be fair I need to start using this more. As this is tucked away in my essential bag I forget about it so I need to start using it as it is a good product and it smells like sweets which remind me of when I was a child.
Plaster- As well as having the strapping I also have a plaster for a reason I don't know. This is actually a Minnie Mouse plaster so I don't mind wearing this when I'm home but if I need a plaster before I go out I will switch to the strapping as I'm 14 not 4.
Brush and Mirror Compact- This is a good thing to have in my essentials bag as it has a brush which is always handy and a mirror as I don't think I have another mirror in this essentials bag so this is my mirror. To be honest I only use this for the mirror as I have an actual hairbrush.
Mini Hairbrush- I know this looks disgusting but it's the only mini hairbrush I have (apart from my Tangle Teezer but I like to keep that out) and every time I go shopping I forget to get a mini hairbrush so I do need to get one. For the time being this works perfectly fine when I need to brush my hair.
Simple Face Wipes 7 Pack- I found this mini pack of Simple wipes in Superdrug and thought they would be perfect for my essential bag. I haven't actually used these yet but it's nice to know I have some cleansing ones which also take up off waterproof mascara as that's what I wear.
Hairbands- I have no where else to store my hairbands so I just keep them in here because when I lose one I know to come to this bag and I will have a huge collection. If anyone has a good way of storing hairbands let me know as I use this has my storage.
Technic Powder- I need to start putting this in my handbag as this is the only powder I have as powder isn't a very exciting makeup product so I don't buy it. I also do usually have a brush to apply this but I forgot that so this isn't a very good essential.
Cath Kidston Hand Cream- If you read my What I Got For My Birthday & Christmas (link HERE) you would know I got a pack of 3 so I put one in here which is the rose one for when my hands get dry which can be a lot. I also think the packaging is super cute and I love the typical Cath Kidston floral prints.
I forgot to mention at the beginning but the smaller makeup bag is from Zoella Beauty at Superdrug and the mint and white one is from Primark but you won't be able to get it anymore as I got it last year. If you enjoyed this post let me know as I really like making beauty posts- I need to write more fashion ones! Follow me on Twitter and Instagram @_louisecarter_ where I post a lot.
