They say a ladies' bag is an endless pit filled with things but are you really bringing what you need or are you bringing (useless) stuff that just adds on to the weight? Only bring what is necessary and you won't have to lug a heavy bag everywhere!

Yes, both dry and wet tissues! It should be a staple in your bag but most people do not bring them around for some reason or other. Improve your sanitation by wiping down stuff and be prepared for accidental spills with your dry and wet tissues. Besides, tissues are every office lady's essential to chope seats!

#2 Card Holder

You don't need to have a full on wallet but you should definitely get a card holder! As Singapore is going cashless, you can just bring your cards around to make payment. Besides, if you really need cash, you can always put them in your card holder as well. Check out these luxury card holders if you are thinking of getting one!

#3 Multi-Use Makeup

Although makeup is not exactly essential for every girl, most girls do have some makeup on before they head out. If you want to do some mid-day touch-up, you will need to bring some makeup products along with you. Don't bring an entire bag of makeup products along with you but bring products that can be used for different purposes. For example, a matte lipstick can be used as a cheek blush and eyebrow powder can be used to contour your face as well.

#4 Sebum Powder

Sebum powder not only helps with oil control on your face, it can also help if you have bangs that will turn oily in Singapore's hot weather! Blot some on your face if you feel your face turning oily and pour a little on your palm to pat on your bangs if you feel your hair turning oily as well.

#5 Breath Spray

If you are someone who enjoys eating garlic and chili, having a breath spray in your bag can avoid embarrassing situations when your mouth is a little smelly from your lunch. Besides, breath sprays gives your mouth a clean feel that will make you feel good and confident!

#6 Perfume / Body Mist

Most people sweat easily in Singapore's weather so apply some perfume to freshen up after your lunch break or when you have been walking under the sun to avoid stinking up the entire office or lecture hall. Opt for a rollerball perfume or a smaller perfume spray bottle so it is easy to bring around.

#7 Umbrella

A compact, foldable umbrella is something you should bring everyday. Be it rain or shine, your trusty umbrella can shield you from the two weathers Singapore has - depressingly rainy and scorchingly sunny. Opt for umbrellas that offer UV protection to protect your skin from the sun. You will find that your skin condition will improve when you reduce its exposure to UV light.
