Vera Bradley Womens Cotton Trapeze Cosmetic Makeup Organizer Bag

Purfect size

Vera Bradley Cotton Trapeze Cosmetic. Item was a great size and well-made. Would have happily kept it. The item itself, had it been new, would have been a five-star. Unfortunately, it smelled of strong perfume and had no tags attached to it. This was a Try Before You Buy item. Item will be returned & I’ll find one that wasn’t previously used.

I admit, my makeup was thrown in a basket, full of more makeup than I actually use. I moved the makeup I actually use into this bag! It has a divider inside, so I was able to put eyeliners, mascara, and brushes on the thinner side of the inner divider, and my eye shadows, blushes and lipsticks on the other side. This may not work for some people, but it does for me. Its a great size for travel, allowing you to take a wide variety of makeup, but still keeping it under control.

I like this trapeze bag from Vera Bradley. It stands up nicely on any countertop with or without items in it due to its smartly designed larger bottom base, which makes filling it with cosmetics, toiletries, or setting it on a bed or countertop a snap! I really like the black and white floral pattern on the inside, which is protected with an easy wipe surface on the inside in the event of my always inevitable “Oops, I forgot to put the cap on that…”spills. (I can’t tell you how many bags over the years I have ruined due to the fact that they did not have a liner.) That won’t happen with this bag! The bag on the outside is black, keeping items organized neatly (even if you are a messy packer!) because of the non-see through exterior , but the inside is strategically designed so you can view items at a glance. Any fur, etc, (shedding cats LOL!) was easily removed from the exterior with a damp cloth. There is a very well-designed clear plastic pocket you can use to separate items…I have a travel brush, comb, and finishing brush that fits perfectly in the slip pocket. Love this because you can see at a glance what is in the pocket, and main compartment due to it being clear. I am using this for putting toiletries in for an upcoming trip, but you can easily use it for both makeup and toiletries because it is the perfect size for throwing in a purse or tote for everyday use. I like how it has a little thumb loop that you can conveniently grasp it from in your bag for quick touch ups. (It’s the little details that matter!) It zips up quickly and easily too! (In the photos I am showing all that I put in the bag, but as you can see I didn’t overpack it, because I am still planning my trip, and am still saving room for last minute items. I am also showing the large slip pocket, how you can expand it or push it back if you aren’t going to use the pocket, making it very versatile for any trip or use! The last picture shows the bag filled up, with plenty of room to spare!) It is also ideal for overpackers, because there’s lots of room to work with in this bag! (Guilty as charged!) The material is super soft, which surprised me because this is a part of their consciously crafted cotton line and I hadn’t really tried this before so I wasn’t sure what to expect. This product is used from materials created from recycled plastic bottles so this makes me feel good supporting companies and products that are working towards new solutions to help the environment! I am so pleased with this bag that I ordered the matching travel bag to go with it because I am so literally obsessed with this bag. I am very pleased with this Vera Bradley Trapeze Bag and hope you will be too. They just released some new patterns if colors aren’t your thing, so I will be definitely be checking those out too in the future! Happy and safe travels!

So my first thought was this seems a little pricey for a basic black makeup bag. But Vera Bradley puts a lot of love in the details. This one has a pretty print lining. A nice quality zipper. Two compartments and more. And it’s got a good feel to it. While I prefer a divided hard shell makeup bag for trips, this is great to hold a few things for touch ups when I’m running around. I like it a lot and feel with the quality and construction it will last a long time.

Zipper already broke. Only a few months old.

Small perfect to fit cellphone and small item in bag

I love Vera Bradley products. This cosmetic makeup bag is so convenient to carry on an upcoming trip. It is the perfect size and holds all my important cometic items. The fabric is recycled cotton from recycled cotton fabrics and is very good looking. Black is not my favorite color, but it will hide any cosmetic mess.

the cotton feels so silky smooth and it is excellently crafted! I also love the color - so richly colored.

This is a nice size makeup bag with a wipeable liner inside which is handy for make up bags because they all get dirty with loose powder, or compact powder or base, so this is perfect. It could be bigger for larger eye shadow sets, but overall I can fit most of my make up in here, or if Im going on a campout a few important things I need. I would recommend.
