what particular item in your vanity bag that you cant live without?

I can't live with out my white flower oil because I'll need it when I get dizzy while travelling. I also use it to relieve my headaches, stomachache, backache and even as first aid ointment to insect bites, wounds and cuts. I put it in my vanity bag together with my perfume, lipstick and compact powder and funny as it may seem, I use more frequently than my lipstick and powder.

for me is my sunglases..I cant travel or go out without that in my bag because of my migrained..second important is my lipstick and my face powder..I see to it that I do look good everytime ha ha ha meybe because of the nature of my job..i do agree with you it is necessary to us even we are mom and wife to look good not for ourselves but ot our husband and kids..I remember one time when my daughter told me that" mom I want you to look good everytime" and now she mimicking me and putting her make up too and she is good at it..she is only 9 ha ha ha..keep it up..be look good

Great poem, Angelwhispers---really nice. Thanks for sharing. Believe it or not, the only item in my vanity bag that I can not live without is my nail clippers! I seem to break nails everywhere I go amd I can't stand for them to be jagged, itjust drives me absolutely nuts. Which has lead to problems when travelling by plane. Usually I have to buy new ones no matter where I go, and I am getting quite the collection, lol! Ok, and I can not live without make-up either whenever I go anywhere but that is alot more than one item...

"Oh Vanity Vanity, As he said vanity, so vain say I, Oh! Vanity, O vain all under sky; Where is the man can say, "Lo, I have found On brittle earth a consolation sound"? What isn't in honor to be set on high? ":))) I have two that I can not live without, nor can I leave my humble abode with out its application. One is my mascara and two is my lipstick such as yourself.

For me, it is lip balm as my lip gets dry easily. It is so important that I cannot live without. Remember the security was tightened in every airport last year and year before, I was very upset as no lip balms or any liquids are allowed carried on broad unless passengers buy the new one from the duty free shop after passing the Security Check. Once when I travelled to Hong Kong, it was late and the Duty Free Shop has closed. At the end, I had to use the left over butter during the meal on board to apply on my lip as a moisturiser. I cannot forget that embarrassed experience in my life.

I find that a tissue is the most important thing in your vanity bag. If you have applied makeup before you go out, and then, for some reason smudge any part of your look e.g. mascara or lipstick, the humble tissue will turn out to be your lifesaver. It gets rid of the panda look! Another little tip I would say is a tiny tube/container of vanilla essence. Not as heavy as a perfume, and certainly not as large a bottle, it always gives me a lift.
