Sometimes it’s the little things that bring us the most joy. And in this case, we’re talking about makeup bags (aka the unsung heroes of any good accessory collection). Sure, splurging on a designer bag for your beauty products may seem a bit indulgent, but cosmetics cases are essential for staying organized—so why not invest in one you really love? Plus, consider the cost per wear: You’ll basically use it every day, and the right bag will last for years.

If you’ve been thinking of upgrading your makeup bag, prepare to be obsessed with these 20 options. Whether you use it at home, for travel, or simply keeping your purse organized, they’re sure to add an extra dose of glam to your day. Oh, and versatility alert: Many of these styles can also double as designer clutches, which is especially handy for travel. (We love a good two-in-one!)

However, she does still have her taste for carbohydrates, love of losing sports teams, and fear of driving during rush hour. She's been in editorial for over eight years as a social media manager and writer covering beauty, fashion, and lifestyle at Glamour and People. Most recently, she was the women's editor at Express. These days, in addition to Who What Wear, you can see her byline at places like Harper's Bazaar, Cosmopolitan, Ipsy, and WeWork. Both a skincare obsessive and a minimalist, she keeps her routine short, sweet, and effective—and she doesn't go a day without sunscreen. She's also deeply passionate about sustainability, and she strives to recommend products she truly believes are worth the investment. When she's not writing about the best and brightest beauty finds, she can usually be found hunting for vintage and secondhand treasures, attempting to find zen at a yoga class, bingeing Bon Appétit YouTube videos, or napping under her weighted blanket.
