The contents of a lady's cosmetic bag can speak volumes about the type of gal she is. Here is what is in the McGuyver-esque purse pouch of Splendora's Editor-in-Chief, Karen Bard:

Ice Breakers Liquid Ice- like brushing your teeth
Shout Wipes- for BBQ spills
Rosebud Salve- best lip balm ever
Stella McCartney roller ball perfume- as slim as a pen and smells so sweet
Pill case filled with Advil, Tums, and Pepto- hangover protection
Ear plugs- to protect the ears at indie-rock shows
EpiPen Epinephrine shot- peanuts = anaphylactic shock = no fun
Sally Hansen Nail Oil Pen- like a mini-manicure on the go
Walgreens individually wrapped antibacterial wipes- perfect for microbial moments
Boscia Green Tea Blotting Linens- takes away late afternoon T-zone shine
Various lipglosses- including; Chanel Sirop, Benefit Corsage, Tarte Jack & Rose, Sue Devitt Nantucket (of course they all seem to be the same color)
Post-It Notes- to leave notes on cars blocking the driveway (we live in SF afterall)

As if the publicity stunt otherwise known as, Operation Opening Weekend, could get any more bizarro, Tom "you had me at hello" Cruise is using his round of interviews on his War of the Worlds press junket to sit around and talk about his devotion to Ms. Dawson's Creek. While the Batman beauty is keeping mum on the topic of her lovah's unbridled lust, Maverick told Access Hollywood that he "loves this woman" and that "she is magnificent." Even Oprah thinks Tom is going bonkers. She was quoted as saying, "He's gone." Speaking of going, we hear that Katie is taking Tommy home to meet her Mommy. But when the nuns at Katie's Catholic high school got wind that they were blowing into town they exclaimed "I just hope she remembers her Catholic roots and doesn't convert to Scientology!" We feel the same way sista.
