What’s In My Bag: Christie Phil

“ The bag is a Prada-inspired one from H&M. I got it because I liked the texture, and it’s faux leather. It’s also surprisingly really good because it’s lasted me 2 years and is still in good condition, except for the handles which have gotten all flappy. Inside, I’ve got my gold iPhone 5s and a 2015/16 planner from Typo. I’ve filled it up with notes from 2015 so, yeah, now I’m getting started with the 2016 ones.

Then I have a brown pouch from Forever 21 which I keep because my purse gets really heavy so I have cards and cash inside this one… Also, medicine. In case of allergies and sickness. Then, keys— obviously— and spare change. Several packets of tissues, because you never know when you’re going to need them. And of course a power bank, for the aforementioned iPhone…

I have these shades since it’s been so hot these last few days. And I have a tiny bag where I keep my lipsticks. Right now, I’ve got this really cheap Avon Ultra Colour Matte Lipstick in M102 and also a Marc Jacobs Lovemarc Lip Gel in Strange Magic. Also, MAC Retro Matte Lipstick in All Fired Up and MAC Velvet Teddy. Oh, and a Neutrogena lip balm because my lips get dry and chapped, especially when I use the Retro Matte lipstick.

Next I have a powder, which is the Maybelline BB Silk Poreless White Cake Powder and I apply it with my Real Techniques MultiTask Brush. I’ve got this Eubos Hand Cream, which is for sensitive hands. Some earphones, for listening to music on the train and a Kit Kat, also for the train. Finally, I have a pack of Wrigleys Double Mints… for reasons I don’t need to explain. ”
