5 Things Women Always Carry In Their Purse

We are all similar in some situations. We all have necessities that we cannot leave without. Whether it is something totally useful or completely useless, you never know if you might need it at any point of the day. It is OK, because our purses cover that for us.

1. Makeup Bag

We all need that touch up at some point of the day. Your Lipstick faded? Girl, put a new color on. Eyelashes falling off? Girl, I got a new pair. Wait, did you sweat it all off? That is OK. Look in that big purse of yours, because we all are not ashamed to say that we have that extra makeup bag. You never know who you might need to impress. Girl, impress yourself.

2. Deodorant

Do you have a man or parent sometimes rushing you out the door, and you end up forgetting one very important step? DEODORANT! You never know what man you might run into. What if you meet Beyoncé? She won’t be impressed if you smell like cooked onions. Either way, thank that person for rushing you, because she reminded you to smell good.


3. Bottle of Lotion

Listen, Bath & Body Works does not sell good ass lotion to sit at home on the counter. We keep it in our purse. After you get done eating, playing basketball, or even using the restroom a little lotion is your savor to smelling good deep into the pores of your skin. Sometimes the weather can get rough on our skin too. Being cold can cause dry skin. Girl, lotion up. Just got in the house and it is raining? Look, there is that lotion again.

4. iPhone Charger

All those selfies you took all day and you are not able to go home to charge your phone? Well, bring your charger wherever you go. Sometimes you may find yourself sitting on your phone, and then BAM, two percent and you are freaking out. You may even find yourself asking everyone around you, “Got an iPhone charger?” Say no more, we girls keep an extra cord in our purse.

5. Feminine Care

Not the time of the month? Well, your girlfriends might need one. Always having a backup saves those favorite pair of pants. Ladies, we all know it is unexpected and that is OK. Remember, take a deep breath and reach your hand into that purse.

Listen, women have problems with their appearance, menstrual cycles, and life in general. We need these things to keep us sane, or we are one unhappy female. The bigger the purse the better for these reasons. I stand up as one of these women. I have to say, I do not leave the door without all these items. Life happens, you never know what you might need. There are even plenty of other things we might keep in our bags as well. Q-tips, bandages, lip balm, gum, and even a lint roller and other small things. I don’t know about you, but these five things are the majority of things I carry on a daily basis.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
