No makeup for me because I don't generally wear it. I'm a home bod and only go out when I have to and only do myself up when I'm going to an important meeting. The only thing I have on your list in my handbag is some tissues :)

I really dont remeber the last time I used my handbag, I normally just take my phone and wallet everywhere and either carry them or i have my kids/ pram so i stick everything in the pocket in my pram. So I dont have a use for my big handbag (or shal i say suitecase haha) .

But I just had a look in my handbag and in it i have deoderant, panadol, plasters, mini pack of baby wipes, and tampons. Nothing too exciting.

Ooh I like this thread! 
For me, it's a wallet, keys, earphones, padlock (for my gym locker), lip balm, tissues, pen and paper, water - I need hydration, and a snack. No makeup for me because I don't reapply throughout the day.

I've stopped carrying snacks in my bag.

What is in my bag... let me see - its a Longchamp Le Pliage so its huge and swallows everything. I have my purse, a pochette which I keep my car keys in so I don't keep losing them as well as some store cards etc. I have a MAC Clearly Rectangle which I now keep my hand moisturiser, tissues, strepsils, panadol, lip balm, lipsticks, blot powder, mini RT brushes, hand sanitiser, water drops, two inhalers. I have wristlet that I keep my computer mouse and some USB sticks in for school, and a pencil case which I paid $3 for, has all my pens, highlighters and stylus for my iPad. I try to clean out the clearly rectangle each day because otherwise it would end up FULL of lipsticks.
