What the AI looks for in Makeup Bags & Cases
- Lining
- Wipeable PU, nylon or coated interior rather than raw fabric Spilled foundation and powder stain fabric for good but wipe off coated linings.
- Opening style
- Prefer a wide or flat-lay opening over a narrow top zip You can see and reach products without tipping the bag out.
- Structure
- Padded or framed walls for palettes and glass bottles Soft pouches let compacts crack and bottles knock together.
- Zipper quality
- Metal or coil zippers with sturdy pulls The zipper is the part that usually fails first on a makeup bag.
