As our handbags seem to get smaller (CC: the recent resurgence of the micro bag and the '90s baguette), we can only fit so much in.
We went to the ultimate makeup connoisseur, MECCA's Makeup Education Manager Hannah Daniels, to tell us the five perfectly petite products she packs in her clutch (and that are worth sacrificing the space for your phone, sunnies and just-in-case claw clip)...
1
The no-brush-required blush (that doubles as eyeshadow)
"I adore the MECCA MAX blush sticks and the shade 'Pinch' is a great multi-use all-rounder that can be used on cheeks, lips and lids. Blush is the first thing to fade off the face, so having a blush in stick form makes it easy to carry and even easier to reapply – no brush needed, just your fingers!).

For when you don't want to be touching up every five seconds

3
The spray when you need your makeup to stay, not slide off
"If you don't use one already, you need a setting spray to keep your makeup in place, especially in the warmer months when it tends to slide off more quickly. This one's packed with hydrating ingredients and feels super refreshing so you can throw the mini size into your handbag to keep spritzing as you hop between events this festive season."

4
The lip duo to take you from day to night

5
For when you didn't have time for hair wash day
