Makeup Bag Collection

As you may know I do have have a handbag obsession but I also have a makeup bag obsession so basically I love things you can put other things into. I have 9 makeup bags and I think that's a lot and I only use 3 at the moment. Woops!

Pink, White and Black Floral Makeup Bag from Primark- You might recognise this makeup bag from a recent haul and it has become a firm favourite in my collection. I got this from Primark and I would recommend if you want a makeup bag go there because they're £3 and there is so many designs and prints. I'm currently using this as my everyday makeup bag because there's so much room and for me that's important with an everyday makeup bag as I'm always chucking more in. This makeup bag also has a mini zip pocket at the back which is really good for anything you might not want people to see.

Zoella Beauty Just Say Yes Makeup Bag from Superdrug- This was my first Zoella Beauty product and I've had this for over a year! When I bought this I was buying this as a pencil case because Zoe did say you could use these as a pencil case and I didn't have much makeup. I know have a new pencil case and I don't really have a reason to use this anymore which is a shame as I love this makeup bag. The last time I used this was last year when I needed to take some makeup to school when I was doing a panto so it would be a great everyday makeup bag.

Zoella Beauty Lace Collar Cosmetic Purse from Superdrug- This is a bit of weird one as it's a makeup bag but it's not the usual; it's called a cosmetic purse. I bought this because I really liked the design but I didn't know what I was going to use it for but I use it as my essential bag which I carry round with me on a day to day basis. This would be good if you don't have that much makeup because it's very small and compact. However you can't fit brushes in here as it's not that long. I can only just fit in a nail file and sometimes that's a squeeze.

Mint and White Makeup Bag from Primark- The throwback! This was the first makeup bag I ever bought and it's not actually that old. I got this at the beginning of 2015 so 2015 was the year I discovered my love for makeup bags. When I got this I didn't really know what to use it for as I didn't have much makeup but I really wanted to get one so I got this one as I love mint and white and I thought the size was good. I've been using this ever since I got it as my essential bag which I keep at home and if you would like to see what I keep in here I have done a What's In My Essential Bag.

Black and White Polka Dot Makeup Bag from Primark- Now we are getting onto the makeup bags that I don't really have a use. You might remember this makeup bag from my P.S. Love Beauty Review and I did only buy it for that post. However I do really like this makeup bag it's just that it isn't needed at the moment but I've post myself on a makeup bag ban so I'm sure this will get a use soon as sometimes I do need a makeup bag and I need to say to myself I have a lot in a drawer unused. I also really like the tassel on this makeup bag which is very different to the ones I have. 

Blue & White Spotty Makeup Bag from Miss Cole at Argos- The next 4 makeup bags you will see I got in a set together so they're all from Miss Cole at Argos. I think this one is my favourite out of the 4 because of the design and the shape. Even though it's my favourite I haven't actually properly used this yet- only once to keep makeup in for a blog post so I can't really say how good this is. This bag is very similar to the Zoella Just Say Yes Makeup Bag as it's a similar size (this is smaller though) and they both have this wipe clean material.

Blue & White Striped Makeup Bag from Miss Cole at Argos- As you can probably tell this is really similar to the last one but the only difference is this one has a different design! I do like the design but I prefer polka dots than stripes (although on clothing it's the other way round). Unlike the last one I have never used this, not even to store anything in but obviously it's going to fit the same amount of stuff in. If I was to use this I would use this as a makeup bag for my handbag as it would fit everything you need in it

Red & White Makeup Bag from Miss Cole at Argos- This is a makeup bag I haven't used yet and I don't really know what I'm going to use this for. This is a very weird shape makeup bag and nothing I've seen before; this makeup bag actually reminds me of a lunch box you would have in primary school just without the handle! I think if I was to use this I would use it for travel because it's quite slim so it would fit easy in a suitcase and it's quite big so you can put all of your makeup in.

Large Clear Case Makeup Bag from Miss Cole at Argos- I have actually used this makeup bag before! I used it to store beauty products in for blog posts but now I keep them in a storage box so this has been put in the drawer where I keep all of my makeup bags. I actually really like how I have a massive, clear makeup bag because I will probably need it at one point. I would use this if I was a makeup artist to take my makeup around from shoot to whatever because it has a handle and a lot of space.

Finally I'm done! This post took ages to write (nearly a week) but probably because I haven't been doing a lot of blog writing as I've been doing some DIYs, which you will see soon, instead. If you want to see more from me follow me on my social media and Twitter and Instagram is @_louisecarter_
