What to Look For in a Good Toiletry Bag

---

Size: 

This all comes down to personal preference and what kind of traveler you are. Neither of us requires many toiletries and cosmetics, but women are likely to want a slightly larger toiletry bag for their extra essentials. A good bag should have enough room for all of the basics. It’s also important that it fits in any carry-on backpack or luggage.

Material:

When dealing with airlines these days we like to save weight wherever we can. So opting for lightweight materials is a great idea. A great toiletry bag should also be water resistant or quick-drying, it’s going to be in a bathroom after all. We also love internal pockets with mesh that allow for wet products to dry. It needs to behave just like our favorite travel towels.

TSA Friendly: 

Any bag that’s not going to take over your carry on sized backpack or luggage will do. However, we suggest you purchase a clear quart bag to store your liquids, that way it simplifies security.

Style: 

The best toiletry bag is all about finding the best fit for each person. Think about your personal style preference and what you want from a toiletry bag. Bags can be utilitarian with synthetic materials and solid colors or they can be stylish and leather.

Extras:

Some bags come with all sorts of bells and whistles. You have the option to go with a bag full of various features like travel sized toiletries bottles, hangers, and an endless amount of compartments or minimalistic bags.
