Any good makeup bags out there??

I've had an awesome makeup bag for probably 20 years and the poor thing is tired and ready to fall apart! It is a dome shaped bag that zips down the middle, has an open area in the center, 2 partitions where I can put blush and pressed powder in the outermost pockets and the inner side of those partitions have clear little pockets that I can slip lipsticks, mascara, eye/lip liners into. Those little pockets are what sold me all those years ago and are spoiling me now! All of the bags I'm seeing are just black holes, stuff can get all mixed up and open up in there.

I've done Amazon searches and am not coming up with anything.

If anyone knows of something like this - please let me know.

Thanks in advance!!!

I don't use a makeup bag in my purse but my travel one is Vera Bradley and it is easy to see into and has lots of pockets and pouches - maybe you can look online.  HTH

I purchased two makeup bags I like at Nordstrom Rack.  They are a brand called "Trina" and they have 3 compartments.  Under $10, washable, and they've held up very well.  I think they're available through other vendors, too.

 

ETA:  Guess I should have mentioned these are small makeup bags for my handbag.

I really like the Vera Bradley hanging organizer bag.  It has compartments that you can see with zipper closures.  I can easily organize and access everything.

I have had a domed satchel like that for years from M. Asam, some deal on HSN.  It is my drug bag, meaning prescription drug bag, for trips, also tooth brush, hair brush, etc.  It sure is beat up, that lime green shows the dirt,  and I'd love to replace it.  My makeup goes into a Bare Escentuals flat bag, shaped like a book.  That is about shot, too.  Keep those suggestions coming.

@lolakimono  I have a bunch of those and like them. But my favorites lately are the Joy Mangano roll up ones from HSN. You can get different sizes, they roll compact, but when you unroll them everything is laid out in front of you. 

 

I clearly have an addiction with all the cosmetic bags I have. 😜

@dionline. The Joy Mangano 2 PC set of beauty bags are 19.95 on HSN right now. The item nbr is 423-370 if you want to look at HSN. There's even a video you can watch. 

 

And the larger 4 PC set is 404-487. I have to use this one because they are bigger, lol.  29.95

 

Had to edit my typo. I really need to stop trying to post in between doing stuff 😉

@dionline I've had GREAT luck with Sonia Kashuk from Target. Easy to wipe down and a TON of styles, from small to large. One of my favorites is called "Compleyely Organized", but is one from the past, but I found it on eBay. I recently took it on a trip, and put my brushes in the front compartment, and then put items in the pockets in the side, and large palettes in the middle. HTH!
