Is it time to give your handbag a good spring clean?

We rarely go out without our handbags and if we do, it definitely feels alien. Keys, wallet and phone... they're the bare essentials, but there are some other things I can't leave the house without. With these key products in tow, you're always ready for a quick freshen up on the go.

1. A great BB Cream

Cloud skin is the new craze and the NOTE BB Cream is without a doubt going to help you achieve that effortless natural look. It's light and it's multi-functional which also means quick and easy. It primes, corrects, hydrates and it's enriched with Vitamin E - an all rounder. A perfect handbag addition for looking great while on the go.

2. Some lip scrub

A quality lip scrub or balm is a definite handbag essential especially during the fresher months when lips can get chapped and irritated easily. The LUSH lip scrubs are handmade, completely vegan and they exfoliate and hydrate the lips making them a must have in your handbag. The best part is that they're available in lots of different scents and flavours from Bubblegum and Cookie Dough to Lime Pie and Mint.
