Packing can be one of the most stressful parts of any trip, even when you’ve got the right travel gear, but finding the perfect bag to organize your travel toiletries and makeup essentials can make the process much smoother. Whether you’re searching for a compact toiletry bag for women, a sleek Dopp kit for men, a clear makeup case or a practical Bagsmart hanging toiletry bag, there’s a travel bag designed to fit your needs.
To help you get started, we spoke with travel experts about the best toiletry bags, pouches and containers to keep your essentials organized, whether you’re tucking them into the best carry-on luggage or best checked luggage.
Clear toiletry bags
When it comes to travel, many prefer clear containers. “I have a preference for transparent or see-through bags so I can quickly locate my products,” Travel Channel host Oneika Raymond said. “It makes security checks at the airport speedier too.”
Ciara Johnson, founder of the popular solo female travel blog Hey Ciara, agreed. “I look for clear containers and pouches that make it easy to sort through when I’m on the go,” Johnson said. “It’s much easier for me to stay organized and identify what is in each bag.”
Travel makeup bags
While clear bags are perfect for getting through security, more traditional makeup cases and bags are ideal once you reach your destination. As long as you’ve got a flat surface to work with, they make it easy to access all your products at once and then quickly scoop everything up when you’re on the move.
