That boy you’ve secretly had a crush on at work finally calls you after weeks of encrypted text messages back and forth. He wants to meet you after work, which, you realize, is only in a half-an-hour! There is no way you will have time to go home and change into that cute red dress you just bought. You start thinking this might be a fashion and beauty emergency. You will not allow yourself to have both, as you thank the Sephora gods in heaven for that cherry lip-gloss you brought with you today. You convince yourself everything is going to be ok, as you practice your yoga breathing exercises and examine your Prada handbag for items that will give you a much-needed quick fix. It’s time to turn on the survival mode and get creative.
3. Lip Gloss.
In the beauty Bible, this is a handbag must when it comes to keeping your precious lips hydrated, full and luscious. Just a quick application can turn your drab face into a refreshed, sun-kissed beauty. Make sure to look for a gloss that has a hint of color to add an extra boost to your lips. It is important to keep lip-gloss in stock that protects and heals during those long, cold winter months.

To maintain leather goods for longer, oil and polish your leather shoes and bags regularly. Leather dries and it can crack if it becomes too dry. Use a quality saddle soap or beeswax to oil the shoes and then apply a polish to clean them, making them shine.
