Review (5/5): Best toiletry bag for carry-on!
First off, I have to mention that I decided to write this review of my own free will, unlike some others, and I wasn't offered any sort of discount for my review. I absolutely love this bag and I have to share why...
It took many days of searching on Amazon to find the perfect toiletry bag (silly, I know), but I have to be particular about organization since I plan to use this product for 2 WEEKS in Europe (7 countries, 10 cities) in JUST A CARRY ON! Here's what I was looking for in the bag:
1. Compartments are clear and plastic. Many other travel cases offer mesh, which I hate, because I have found that tweezers, bobby pins, and other small things can poke through. These compartments keep everything in and I can see where everything is.
2. It hangs! European bathrooms tend to be tiny and lack counter space, so a bag that hangs and stays out of the way is a must.
3. Large compartments. I know I'm traveling with a carry on, but I NEED all of my makeup, skincare, meds, haircare items to come with me and they all need to fit in this bag. I don't plan to compromise my routine just because of TSA restrictions... I managed to fit all of that and have room to spare (the trick is to travel with sample packets and mini plastic jars/bottles).
The only cons for this product:
1. I wish I would have known that it had the "Zombie Disaster Kits" logo on the front... though, my boyfriend thinks it's funny, so I guess this isn't much of a con.
2. The travel bottles that come with seem nice, but they are just way to big. I prefer containers that are 1 oz. or less so that I can fit all of my items (these are 3.4 oz - the maximum TSA size). Also, I attempted to use one and it ended up leaking everywhere, so I don't plan on ever using these, unfortunately.
But, for the price I paid, the bag alone was definitely worth it. Highly recommended!
