If you’ve been scrolling through Pinterest or Instagram recently you’ll have no doubt stumbled across makeup bags not too dissimilar to the ones above – they’re everywhere!
I’m always looking for convenient storage solutions for my makeup, so when I spotted these bags I knew I needed to get one. After spending a decent amount of time searching online though, I still hadn’t found exactly what I was looking for… that was until I tried Etsy!
I found that there were quite a few small businesses selling these kind of makeup bags on Etsy, each with their own individual style. To save you some of the searching, here are some of the bags that caught my eye…
These are all hand-made and most of them are machine washable too, which really is a must for something that’s constantly at risk of being makeup-stained! The sellers below are dotted around the world, I really do recommend buying from a local Etsy seller if you can though!
1. Quilted Baby Blue Terry Cloth Makeup Bag
You really can’t go wrong with a quilted, towelling makeup bag. This baby blue one is the perfect size for storing/carrying your beauty bits, whether you’re at home or on the go. The pink lining offers an amazing contrast to the blue outer, but if you’re looking for something that’s all pink, why not give this version a go instead.
2. Ditsy Floral Makeup Bag
I might be biased because I have this exact floral makeup bag at home, but I just think it’s so cute! I love the combination of the colourful outer print and the gingham lining – the pink elements bring everything together. Plus, it’s surprisingly roomy – you can fit so much in this one little pouch!
3. Corduroy Makeup Pouch
If you’re looking for something less boxy and structured, this corduroy pouch might just be a winner. It’s large enough to fit bigger bottles, brushes or sprays and can also be flattened to squeeze inside a backpack or suitcase. It comes in a variety of colours and is insanely affordable… brb just adding this to my basket!
4. Apple Green Gingham Makeup Bag
For those who want something bright and fun, this apple green makeup bag is ideal. The quilted outer fabric is adorable enough by itself, but the fruit-themed lining is the cherry on top (excuse the pun!).
5. Fluffy Pink Sherpa Makeup Bag
If terry cloth isn’t fluffy enough for you, try this sherpa makeup bag instead. The outer fabric is insanely soft, and again the playful fruit-themed lining just makes it. This is the kind of makeup bag that’s for sure going to take pride of place on your dressing table – how could it not steal the show‽
6. Quilted Floral Makeup Bag
Here’s another ditsy floral makeup bag that’s definitely worth the pennies. This one’s a little longer, and a bit less square, so it’s perfect for storing makeup brushes or larger skincare products. The floral outer fabric and pink plaid lining also work so well together – it’s a match made in heaven!
7. Camel Teddy Makeup Pouch
Flat pouches are such a great space-saving option and this teddy makeup bag is no exception. I feel like this would offer a lot of protection for your makeup/skincare products, while really not taking up a lot of room in your suitcase. I really like the neutral colour scheme too!
What do you think? Would you add any of these makeup bags to your wish list?
All of these makeup bag options are adorable, but have you ever fancied making your own? If you’re interested in sewing one of these cute makeup pouches yourself, check out my DIY Towelling Makeup Bag post.
