I spent years looking for the best travel toiletry bag until I stumbled on the lay-flat hanging organizer from eBags (affiliate link). I’ve used a Vera Bradley cosmetics bag until the lining ripped through. Countless freebie toiletry kits that I’ve collected during sales at the makeup counters have come and gone.
The longest run was my hanging, multi-compartment Mary Kay bag. I loved that I could separate my toiletries and hang it up for easy access in a hotel. Yet that thing rolled up to take up a quarter of my suitcase. It was massive!
I need something that would fit my various creams, make up, and other necessities. Yet I hate digging through one larger bag to find what I’m looking for — every single time! One requirement in a toiletry bag is separate sections for different stuff. I like keeping my make up in one, skin care in another, and dental care and shaving equipment in others.
A good travel toiletry bag also should easily hang from a shower rod, towel rack, or other hook in a small hotel bathroom. There is never enough space on a hotel bathroom vanity, especially when you are traveling with a family, so a hanging bag is essential.
You also need a make up bag that doesn’t leak. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has had a lotion tube explode in transit. I like a bag that will contain that inevitable mess.
But the feature that I love the most about the eBags toiletry kit is that it lays flat!! It fits a ton but still doesn’t take up much space in my suitcase. It is so easy to fit it into even my smallest carry on suitcases with its low profile design.
