I think the Lava and GoJo recs already posted would do the trick, but if you want a physical scrub, add a little pile of aluminum oxide crystals to your liquid hand soap. It's a very fine scrubby scrub, cheap, and feels awesome. I use it in my face cleanser too occasionally.

I agree. I have this coastal scents set, and I love it. I bought the same set for my sister-in-law too. Although we're both stumped as to what to do with that gigantic fan brush lol.

If you have a Goodwill nearby, you should definitely check it out for purses. You'd be surprised by the gems you can find there!

As for saving space in your purse, you should get a Grid-it. Extra pockets in purses (that you may not even use!) usually just add extra bulk. You can really make the most out of your purses with these organizers. You can probably make one yourself if you're strapped for cash.

Edit: This is an absolute lifesaver. Comes with a pen, scissors, tweezers, toothpick, screw drivers, nail file, flash light, magnifying glass, and a ruler, and it all fits in your wallet! Got mine at TjMaxx a few years ago and I've been carrying it around with me ever since.

I'm a reader, so I always bring a paperback book with me to the store and stuff that, my wallet and a small notebook in to check for size. Too much larger and I end up carrying around my whole life. I've found the bags with sections or compartments end up not having enough pace because they're divided awkwardly, so I go with a big main bag with a front pocket and a little inside zipper pocket with a long strap. I go for something in the neighborhood of this: http://www.amazon.com/Roxy-Tongue-Tied-Shoulder-Arabian/dp/B00HLRLU3Q/ref=sr_1_4?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1404894253&sr=1-4&keywords=purses, but I shop sample sales, craigslist and department stores. Happy hunting!

I just purchased this set - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I3VHKVK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1.

I've only had them for a few days, but I like all of them so far. They are thick so they blend well. My only complaint so far is that the brushes for the eyes are just a tad big for my eyelid, but I have small eyes.

This looks very similar to a brush set I got on Amazon. I have found the brushes great for applying foundation and eyeshadow, not as great for blending. I've had them for over a year and they've held up really well to repeated cleanings - no loss of bristles, still look brand new.
