Women need more little things than men to take care of their style and health. Without some of these items, it is easy to find oneself in a spot. Here are some of the most crucial things every woman should always have close at hand.
1. A handbag
This can be any size, even the size of a simple wallet will do. A handbag is like a great companion who keeps all of our secrets.
If you wish to realise just how important this accessory is, try leaving the house and spending the entire day without a handbag or pockets. You will surely miss your good old bag.
2. Dress tape
This tape is designed to stick to any fabric. It comes in handy whenever your hemline falls apart. All you have to do is to stick it back in place with this amazing invention.
3. Lip balm
Imagine yourself with dry, ashy looking lips that you have to keep on licking just to moisturise.
It then dawns on you that the more you lick, the worse they look. This is where lip balm comes in. It is a small but very necessary item.
4. Nail polish remover and file
Chipped, cracked nails will shatter your image faster than a bad hairdo. For this reason, the nails rule has always been: Either wear a full coat of polish, or none at all.
5. Money
A woman should always have a certain amount of cash on her at all times. You never know when you will need it.
The money should be enough to help you buy a meal if you are away from home, or enough to help you catch a cab from wherever you are to your home.
6. Handkerchief
This one sounds quite old fashioned, but a clean well-ironed cotton hanky is an absolute necessity for not just women but men as well. It is the best item to clean your nose when you have a cold because tissue has particles that aggravate the cold.
A handkerchief is also the best thing to use to wipe your face of sweat or debris because it does not leave white bits all over the place the way tissue does.
7. A powder compact
An attractive metal powder compact that clicks is the ultimate statement you can make. (Avoid the plastic fake ‘mac’ type).
Use it to re-do your lipstick and powder your nose in style. Always have one on hand to check whether you have vegetables in your teeth after lunch.
