Beauty Break: Beauty on the Go

I know we are all super busy, whatever you spend your time doing we all know how precious time can be. Yet, as women we all want to look our best all the time as well. This is where on the go beauty items come in especially handy. I have a little system I use when deciding if an "on the go" beauty item is purse worthy: Size, Functionality, Ease of Use - if it doesn't cut it in these categories it doesn't make it into my bag. Here are a few of my favorite "On the Go" Beauty Items.

The Hot for Dots Matchbox Itty Bitty Files – adorably portable, practical, and playful – walk the line between super-stylish and hassle-free usability. Designed to fit easily into the palm of your hand and stored in any size purse, pocket or travel bag, the compact case conveniently houses a dozen durable, disposable mini files. Rough emery grains on one side tackle tough nails while a fine grade of emery on the other smoothly file.

• Size - Fits right in your hand and doesn't hog up a lot of purse space.
• Functionality - Not only does it have a rough side, the other side is a fine grade emery board
• Ease of Use - Snap one off and go, super easy.
