Handbags are a girls best friend and tend to go everywhere and anywhere with us. We often forget the health risk of having a handbag.
It is known that a woman’s handbag could house more bacteria than a public toilet. So in order to avoid this we have put a list together to ensure your handbag is clean.
- Wipe it down regularly with sanitiser wipes
- When out and about refrain from placing your handbag on the floor rather place it on a able or chair
- Cleaning out the inside of your bag remembering to wipe down the inside as well as the items inside
- Wash the inner material with a detergent
- Use a bag organiser
With these 5 tips you will no longer be carrying around a health hazard!
Let us know what the item is that you always carry in your bag in the comments below!

Lol its a lot, where do I even start. I always have lip gloss gotta keep my lips moistured, hand lotion cause I wash my hands frequently and they get dry fast,perfume it’s a tiny bottle that I keep just so I smell great all day, sanitizer alwaysssss, honestly the list can go on and on cause I keep lots in my bag haha
I used to have a bag organizer years before. I don’t really know what happened to it. I do wipe my bag clean though everytime I use it.
Oh God this article is talking to me😅😅. I try to be organised as much as I can but always find my bag full of receipts and toys of my baby😅. The following should always be in my bag. Earphones, powerbank, charger cable, sanitiser, wet wipes, lipstick, cardholder, a pen because now I cannot be sharing a pen with people due to COVID, pocket tissues. I know its a lot but I can’t leave my house without these😅
Good article

Thanks for the reminder , and creating awareness ❤️
Way to many slips always in my bag and with a little boy, there will be sweet wraps when no bins are near and sometimes toys.
Thanks to RUBYBOX, I have learnt a lot and I always carry sanitizer an wipes but never thought of sanitizing my handbags 👝👛👜
Yes, I was a little more cavalier in the past with a bag but since COVID I have become much more careful.
