WHAT'S IN MY BAG? - EVERYDAY EDITION

What's in My Bag is quite possibly in the top five most popular blog posts for fashion/beauty bloggers, it's hard to tell why, maybe we're all just unbelievably or maybe we're all itching to know everyone else's secrets and see if our own bags are lacking in something. My bag's always full to the brim, yet it still feels lacking. 
I've been meaning to share this post since I was a Wordpress blogger back in 2013, and truth be told, I have no idea why it's taken me almost two years but here it is! Today I picked up a plain white mount board and started flatlaying! 
I'm definitely in need of some softboxes and ring lighting, if you know of anything relatively cheap then please please please (with a cherry on top) leave me some links or recommendations in the comment section below.
I didn't pick an uber glamourous bag, or anything super swish, because this is a realistic What's in My Bag, and it's an Everyday Edition so I chose one of my cute everyday bags that I'm totally in love with. This is an £8 Primark drawstring bucket bag and it's so comfy and looks great with errthang!
I literally cannot leave the house, even to pop to town for an hour, with my phone, face powder, Real Techniques Multi-Task Brush, purse (obviously), eyelines, hand cream, lip balm, lipstick and sunglasses. I feel so lost and wrong without them!
Every work day I carry my iPad around with me as well as y Minnie Mouse Blog notebook, it's the cutest thing and perfect for when I want to physically write ideas down instead of typing everything out on my iPad. It definitely fills my daily commute time with blog planning (and jigsaw puzzle playing!).
Isn't my phone cover the greatest thing in the world?!

What are your absolute daily bag essentials that you carry with you everywhere?
I'd love to see your similar posts so please drop them in the comments below along with your recommendations (see above for lighting).

      I couldn't live without that brush now. It's part of a set which you can pick up super cheap on eBay now so I'd definitely recommend it. Having cosmetics in your bag are a must! xo
