Make Up Bags

To become a makeup artist, I needed to get a basic makeup kit together. My makeup that I personally use are in my lesportsac pouches but for my professional kit, I needed to get an official makeup case. I mean, I didn't really have to get an official makeup case but I'm just that type of Gal that needs to get EVERYTHING together from the get-go. Sometimes that tendency bites me in my butt when my new "aspiration" ends up as just an expensive hobby.

Here are some cases I looked at:

Japonesque Professional Aluminum Series Makeup Case with Drawers
This one is interesting. It has different drawer compartments and comes with the roller. The outer shell is pretty sturdy. The doors open up and has brush holders so you don’t really need a brush belt. You don’t need to really unpack your kit bag, you can just pull the drawers out and grab what you need. Runs for around $220 here.

Black Roll Top Makeup Case W/ Straps
This bag is small and compact. Its not HUGE but it has enough compartments to hold the necessary items. From alcohol spritzers to palettes, it fits them all! This is great for someone that just wants to organize their makeup at home too. The only thing that gets to me is that if you pack this thing up, it ends up weighing a ton. Get it here for around $80.


Zuca Bag
At the end, I decided to buy myself a Zuca bag!!! They come in many different colors & patterns and the best part of it all is that you can sit on the top metal part of the bag. Say you were on a set and they don’t have a seat for you…you can opt to just sit on the bag!! Amazing. Standing around the whole day can really get to you so this feature is so kind to your feet. The bag zips open and comes with 6 little bags that you can stuff with your makeup items. You can just shove that back into the bag so the amount of makeup that you can fit in the bag is unbelievable. It comes with wheels so you can pull it anywhere and its very compact. This awesome bag starts around $130 and can go up to $300. I spent about $150. Get ithere!
