love the rosebud salve (although i could never get it to last FIFTEEN years!) and the a+d ointment - both are multipurpose miracle workers i wouldn't be ashamed to be found caught with in my purse :)

ahah the weave seems a little extreme to have with you all the time but everything else is totally undrstandable.

Weave, toothbrush and tongue scraper are definitely something to be embarrassed by! They just seem like things you shouldn't have in your bag no matter what! Hahaha, I want a Bump it!!

Oh, I am so boring, I don\'t have any of these in my purse.

I don't feel so bad now, with my forever old lip products.

I have at least three of these! Shame!

by diane_magel Tuesday, October 9, 2012 at 02:37PM Report as inappropriate

tongue scrapers make an enormous difference!

by smallio13 Tuesday, October 2, 2012 at 11:45AM Report as inappropriate

Definitely never going to admit to owning any of these things, let alone caring them around in my bag!

Funny.

I laughed about the weave in your bag. I could relate, not that I have ever worn a weave but about ten years ago I cut my waist long hair and had the stylist put it in a ponytail and then chop it off. I save that dang ponytail forever swearing I was going to donate it to the place that make wigs for people with cancer. Too many time I had people over and somehow it would get exposed in a drawer that I opened that I left it not very well hidden in. It ALWAYS grossed people out. I finally got rid of it after moving apartment and dragging it with it like 3times-weird I know.

Not very applicable for me. Don't seem like I have those items.

And here I was proud of my LipSmacker collection. At least none of them are 15 years old, haha.

I also use a toothbrush for the same thing, have for years!

by WiccanLady Wednesday, August 8, 2012 at 02:23PM Report as inappropriate

The toothbrush thing is hilarious! I have also been using a toothbrush for the same reasons since...hhhmmm....'82 or so!

funny but gross!!! thanks for the slideshow

by teema Tuesday, August 7, 2012 at 07:19PM Report as inappropriate

I definitely have a huge collection of LipSmackers in all flavors! Not embarrassed at all!

by Karica4 Tuesday, August 7, 2012 at 06:48PM Report as inappropriate

I didn't know about diaper rash and dry skin-cool!

by voyager24 Tuesday, August 7, 2012 at 05:15PM Report as inappropriate

Some of those are really kind of gross... but diaper rash ointment really is good for adult skin too! I get razor bumps pretty bad which is NOT cute during bikini season. I put some on right after I shower, and it's really helped keep them to a minimum.

interesting

by Nicole2814 Monday, August 6, 2012 at 05:27PM Report as inappropriate

Please replace the 15 year old Rosebud lip salave...the oils are now rancid, period.

by Ydabney Monday, August 6, 2012 at 07:47AM Report as inappropriate

I don't see anything wrong with any of those products except maybe for the toothbrush (that should be cleaned once in a while).

by internet101 Sunday, August 5, 2012 at 04:14PM Report as inappropriate

I think whatever works for you is fine, BUT 15 year old floss you stick your finger in all the time, and the toothbrush that doesn't get washed, by the sound of it, are super disgusting. Also, why not use those tiny makeup pouches for items you don't want others to see?

by venenumletalis Sunday, August 5, 2012 at 11:18AM Report as inappropriate

Dont carry any of thesein my purse

by milenaa87 Sunday, August 5, 2012 at 06:40AM Report as inappropriate

Interesting...

by andyv1217 Saturday, August 4, 2012 at 02:36PM Report as inappropriate

I try to carry the least amount possible in my purse.

by alictasia Friday, August 3, 2012 at 08:29PM Report as inappropriate

When I was a little kid, my mom used my sister's AD cream on my elbows and knees as well. I forgot all about it!

by yestfl Wednesday, August 1, 2012 at 11:13AM Report as inappropriate

I'm sorry I just can't see the importance of having an extra piece of weave in my purse unless I have the glue to go with it. It can't possibly be in good shape after mingling with everything else I rummage in and out of my purse...lol. Just imagine grabbing your lip balm and there is a piece of someone else's hair all over it...ewww.
