Women's Handbags Are Home To More Bacteria Than A Toilet, Study Finds


A study from UK-based hygiene services provider Initial reveals that about 20 percent of women's handbags are home to more bacteria than the average toilet.
After swabbing 100 surfaces and items from 25 handbags, researchers found that the dirtiest parts of a woman's purse were the bag linings, makeup, and hand or face cream, which alone had more bacteria than the average toilet seat.
They didn't say if their tests looked for bacteria were disease-causing or if they were innocuous, normal bacteria that we are covered with every day.
