How Many Beauty Products Are in Your Purse Right Now?
Do the contents of your purse reflect the state of your mind? I sure hope not, especially because right now my purse is a mess! So much so that I had no idea that I was carrying seven lip products.
Clearly I need to get a bit more organized (in my defense my car, apartment and desk are all clean and orderly). Still it got me curious about what beauty products my co-workers are carrying around on any given day (and hopefully discover that I wasn't the only crazy person carrying around that many lip products).
I ambushed a few Total Beauty team members and here is what I found. P.S. I still had the most amout of lip products.
Here are my lucky seven lip products ... a decent mix of lip balms, lipgloss and of course lipstick. I've got some big brands like Estee Lauder, Clinique and CoverGirl mixed with some smaller companies like Jane Iredale, Korres and Chivas Skin Care.
Devran, our email marketing specialist keeps it simple with just a compact, Kiehl's lip balm and lip gloss.
Sharon, our assistant editor made me feel a little bit better about myself witht five lip products and a powder foundation.
Joanna, our online marketing campaign manager kept it just as simple as Devran with a lip balm and a lipgloss. She did also happen to have some Kiehl's hand cream ... this reminds me, I need to start putting on more hand cream.
Jane, the assistant editor from our sister site Beauty Riot had a more diverse collection that included perfume, eye shadow, blotting papers and some sort of teeth whitening product. Never thought to carry perfume on me before, but as Coco Chanel said "A woman who doesn't wear perfume has no future". Might be making a trip to the fragrance counter very soon.
Our newest team member, associate editor Alexis barely had any makeup (only lip balm really). She did have a decent collection of bobby pins, a nail file, Jergen's hand cream and a lint remover. One should always be prepared.
So if I were to peak inside of your makeup bag what would I find? Share by commenting below or even better, upload a photo of what's inside of your purse.

So, this forced me to re-evaluate what I'm carrying around on my shoulder all day. WOW! I carry a TON of stuff! Time for some spring cleaning :)

So ironic that I've found this post today... :) I don't switch purses often enough, but about two days ago, I needed to completely empty out my current one, and I found 12 lip glosses in it... I don't know if I should feel guilty, sick, or happy... :)) But... It is what it is, I guess... Can a makeup junkie really be cured?... :) Thank you for this post. Love this idea!

Love Jane's.... How would you *not* carry a rollerball around? I usually have some lotion, lip balm, lip gloss, a mirror, and one or two (oops) rollerballs :)

Awesome comparisons! I can never be too far away from some kind of lip pigment or moisturizing cream.
