I always like to be prepared. There are a few essentials that I think every girl should always carry. I always have mace in case I’m walking alone at night, I always have a cell phone (back in the old days it was enough change to make a call on a pay phone), a few bucks for emergencies, a compact mirror, and last but certainly not least, I always have condoms with me.

The Just In Case II by Just In Case Inc. flawlessly fulfills two of my needs with style and convenience. It seems like a simple little contraption but this compact totally makes my day! On a personal note, I’ve always loved things with secret compartments so this compact also offers a little secret joy for me. On a more practical note, I think every woman who might have a use for condoms should have one of these in her purse. I suppose the politically correct thing to say would be that anyone who uses condoms could conceivably use this. I mean, we all need a mirror now and again, and it never hurts for a man to carry condoms.

My partner even remarked that, being all black and fairly sleek, he could see carrying one in his car if not on his person.

The Just in Case II is a sleek black plastic compact with a mirror inside and a false bottom. Lift up the center and there is a compartment that holds about 2 condoms. You could probably fit 3 or 4 if the packaging was slimmer. The case itself is 2-3/4" by 2-3/4" and fits nicely in even a small pocket or purse!

The condom compartment door is well made and closes securely. There is no chance of it accidentally popping open on you and showing anything that you’re not ready to reveal.

If you’ve ever had your purse knocked over or spilled and had more than you wanted revealed, you’ll love this thing. You can pull it out without a second thought. It’s perfect if you don’t want to show all of your cards, and it’s kind of fun to surprise your partner!

This thing goes absolutely everywhere with me! It's one of my favorite little secrets. It just looks like an ordinary compact mirror and no one needs to know I'm always prepared unless I want them too! Once in a while I even use it to carry an extra aspirin or hairtie as well!
