Like most girls I carry a massive purse all over the place. Lately I have been back and forth between a Madewell Transport Tote and a Tory Burch bag. I love these bags because they are large enough to hold what I need on a daily basis(phone, iPad, planner, notebook, Lip Balm, gum, wallet etc) but not so big that you feel like you’re lugging something around. So guys get excited because here’s what’s in my bag!

See the bag and it’s contents above.
Inside the bag you will find my iPad(case here) , planner and notebook. All essential for the blog and work loads of my daily life. I love that I can pop into a coffee shop or restaurant and work for a few hours without lugging something large around with me all day.

Next you see my phone (case here), wallet, sunglasses, gum, keys. No big shock these are pretty standard daily essentials for most women.

Next you have my makeup bag and a few of it’s contents(mascara, hair ties and my ever trusty carmex). I always have a ton of lip products and lately this is my favorite. I love the new designs of carmex and how fun the styles are! Each slim and stylish lip balm stick is packed full of ultra hydrating formulas you always find in carmex and a soft vanilla flavor with SPF 15! There are designs for each season, these are the summer designs and 4 times a year you will see new ones! If you are wanting to buy Carmex Moisture Plus each lip balm is only $2.49 and you can find them at Walmart, Walgreens and Dollar General.

Since 1937 Carmex has been manufacturing it’s original lip balm in the iconic yellow lidded jar. Now the brand your lips have come to know and love has gotten a fancy style upgrade with the always on trend, fashion inspired Carmex Moisture Plus Lip Balm.
As someone who is always on the hunt for new lip balms especially stylish lip balms these specifically called to me for a few reasons. One I love the design I mean what girl wouldn’t? Also the SPF is perfect for these HOT summer months. Really the only lip product I am even using right now. Really it’s the easiest product to incorporate into anyone’s daily beauty routine!

Carmex also has some amazing lip and skin care tips!
You will love this new carmex and I personally can’t wait to see what designs are out there next! Just look at these!


What’s in your bag?
We have the same bag yay
I love the stick version over those old yellow tubs. I hate dipping into a pot for any type of cosmetic or skincare product. Thanks for sharing these. I’ll be on the lookout because a girl can never have enough lip balm. Stacie xo
I love Carmex, I’ve been using it for years. I’m so glad that I have the option now to use the twist tube…I had a hard time as a kid with the little “finger tub” and other kids always expected me to SHARE! Lol. Great post.
Aww, I had the same experience growing up! I don’t like to share haha.
So many cute options 🙂 https://www.mycarmex.com/lip-balm/moisture-plus
