A Makeup Bag That Keeps Everything In Its Place!

Ill be honest and say that every makeup bag Ive ever bought has been to give away as a gift and the only makeup bags I own were given to me as gifts. I'm the type of girl that will put her makeup in Ziplocs when traveling if I have to...*gasp* I know horrible for a MUA to admit right?

I could never find one that satisfied all my needs and fit my brushes well enough so they didn't come out misshapen when I went to use them. I am happy to say I have found one that has come pretty damn close to my ideal makeup bag!

Introducing the Dickies Pencil Pouches! Available in some funky colors and patterns.
I happen to choose the multi-color square pixel case on the far left.

When the case arrived I noticed it was bigger than I had imagined, measuring 8" long by approx 3.5" wide this case holds a lot of makeup!


There are 2 compartments which I love! The bottom one holds my brushes perfectly without squishing them which is important and the top holds more than enough for a weekend trip but with plenty of room to add extras for a longer stay away.



What I liked:

• The size - it fits my brushes perfectly and has a big pouch up top.
• The LIFETIME warranty!!! No need to worry if a zipper goes wonky!
• The 2 compartments
• The funky designs

What I Disliked:

• The size.. while I like it for travel its much to big to use as an everyday bag in my purse
• The color selection. While I like the funky colors I almost wish they had more "grown up" color & design choices
• That it was SO difficult to find information on these Dickies cases online, although their twitter and Facebook are quite active.

I will be bringing this makeup bag with me on my trip to the west coast this week no doubt about that! These babies can also double as a pencil case for those in school and are available for a cool $4.99 at a Zellers near you :)
