A woman’s dressing is incomplete without her handbag.While her handbag may pass for an ever-ready fashion statement, there is more to it.

It might be a life -saver because of what it contains. Asides from phones, wallet and keys, here are some other important things every woman should have in her handbag:

1. Tissue

When nature calls, a pack of tissue paper comes in handy. You don’t want to use a public toilet only to find out there are not tissue paper. It is better to have one in your handbag.

2.Compact mirror

A mirror should be a ladies ‘buddy’. Call the woman vain, it is serving a useful purpose. A compact mirror is useful for assessing ones looks and correcting any facial flaw.

3.Mints/ Chewing gum

Bad breath is an instant turn-off. keep some mints sweets/chewing gum to hide your breath after eating meals like sardine and bread or ogbolo soup and eba.

4.Perfume

Give people a sample of your scent; something that you would remembered for even after your departure.

5.Painkillers

For everything pain whether hangovers or headaches or those days of menstrual flow, keep a painkiller in your handbag.

6.Pads

Just a follow-up. you should have these in your bags so that you are never caught unaware.

7.Hairtie

Always keep a hairband in your bag in case you need to do some emergency runs without hindrance or discomfort.
