There are a few things every traveler needs, no matter where in the world they're going — and a toiletry bag is one of them. The humble case might be an afterthought to some, but these helpful bags are crucial to keeping your travel essentials organized.

We tested 58 toiletry bags and cosmetic cases (and will continue to test them for a period of at least six months) in order to bring to you the best of the best, evaluating their capacity, design, portability, and value. We also considered the overall quality of the bags, as well as their ease of use on real trips.

Taking our test results into consideration, we've put together a list of the best toiletry bags across various categories; you’re sure to find one that suits your needs.

Best Overall

Away large toiletry bag.

This bag holds more than you'd expect from just looking at it.

The limited edition colors often sell out fast.

You might be most familiar with Away for its selection of hardside luggage and weekender bags, but the brand carries travel accessories, too, including this large toiletry bag that earned high marks across the board during our tests.

Though we found the bag to be even roomier than expected, there are so many individual compartments including a clear cosmetic bag, a zippered pouch, two mesh linings, and an exterior pocket, to name a few. You won't be reaching into a bottomless pit, rummaging around for individual products here. We also love that the bag zips open wide enough for you to reach inside with ease. We packed it with both large and small items, from travel-size liquid bottles to makeup brushes, and there was still room for more.

We also noted the durability of the water-resistant nylon, which is lightweight without feeling cheap. The interior of the bag is coated with an easy-to-wipe material, allowing you to clean up any spills quickly. The bag comes in five color options (with limited edition colorways offered on occasion), as well as a smaller size option and a hanging version of the bag.

The Details: 10.2 x 3.7 x 5.9 inches | 8.8 ounces | 3.6-liter capacity | Nylon | Water-resistant

Most Packable

Aer travel kit 2.

Not only is it packable, but you can hang it up to save counter space at your destination.

Its more petite size means that it's not ideal for full-size toiletries.

Hello, carry-on-only travelers! This toiletry bag by Aer offers the best of both worlds: it's compact enough to stash in your carry-on or personal item, but it's spacious enough to hold all your toiletries. During our tests, we were able to fit hairspray, dry shampoo, conditioner, lotions, deodorant, a small electric toothbrush, toothpaste, perfume, toner, and medications in this bag. Of course, being that this bag is so compact, they were all travel-size products , not full-size ones.

We also loved that this toiletry kit has a hook that you can twist at different angles, making it easy to hang on doorknobs, towel racks, or bathroom bars to save counter space. And we appreciated the fact that it has several interior and exterior pockets for further organization.

The Details: 9 x 6.5 x 3 inches | 8 ounces | 2.5-liter capacity | Cordura ballistic nylon | Water-resistant

Best Waterproof

Line+arc the dopp kit.

This large bag fits just about everything, including large eyeshadow palettes.

It's a bit bulky — and fairly heavy when full.

You might be wondering why you need a waterproof toiletry bag, since it's usually tucked into a larger bag when you're traveling. The answer is simple: bathroom sinks. Toiletry bags often sit on wet surfaces, so it's not a bad idea to invest in a waterproof model like this one by Line+Arc. Though the bag has a loop for hanging, we felt comfortable leaving it on the sink due to its waterproofing, which we found to be particularly effective.

Beyond its waterproof material, we were impressed by this toiletry bag's spaciousness — we could even fit an eyeshadow palette the size of a small book inside — and more specifically, for its wide-open mouth, which allowed us to access everything with ease. Of course, because it's so large, it did get a little bulky and heavy when we packed it full, so it might be best for checked or carry-on suitcases instead of smaller personal items or weekender bags.

The Details: 11 x 6.5 x 3.5 | 1.2 pounds | 3.5-liter capacity | Silicone | Waterproof

Best Organization

Peak design wash pouch.

The bag is lined with high-density foam for extra protection.

It would be nice if there were more colors to choose from.

When you have a large number of toiletries to bring with you on vacation, the best thing you can do is choose a toiletry bag that helps you keep everything organized. This is that bag! Though it appears small from the outside, the bag is so thoughtfully designed with organizational tools — we found that there's a pocket for just about everything. The main compartment is large enough to fit small bottles, while mesh pockets of various sizes line the walls, so you can tuck in your favorite tinted moisturizer , for example. There's also a separate pocket for your travel toothbrush , which keeps it nice and clean.

Other highlights include a wide opening to access each pocket easily and the ability to stand on its own thanks to the bag's layer of high-density foam that also helps protect the items inside. It also has a handy hanging hook if you'd prefer to keep some counter space clear.

The Details: 10.2 x 6 x 4.4 inches | 8.7 ounces | 2.5-liter capacity | 200D nylon canvas | Weatherproof

Best Dopp Kit

Beis the dopp kit in atlas pink.

It's extraordinarily spacious and capable of holding what three standard-size toiletry bags can carry.

You can only open one compartment at a time.

What’s a dopp kit, anyway? Though the term is used interchangeably with toiletry bag today, the dopp kit was originally devised by German leather maker Charles Doppelt and was popular with military personnel in the 20th century. It typically takes the silhouette seen here in this Béis bag: a large main compartment, sometimes with side pockets.

Béis' dopp kit, however, has an extra compartment beneath the main one (like the well-known Béis weekender bag ). On the plus side, we absolutely love having all this extra space. In our tests, we were able to fit the capacity of three standard toiletry bags into this one. So if you're an overpacker, this is the bag for you. Note that you can only open one compartment at a time, though — the top one needs to be closed if you open the bottom one, otherwise all your items will fall out. But a big pro to this setup is that it's a very sturdy dopp kit, and it stands alone with ease, thanks to its wide base.

The Details: 6.5 x 11 x 6 inches | 14 ounces | Cotton-jute canvas or poly canvas | Water-resistant lining

Best for Men

Bagsmart toiletry bag for men.

It opens wide with a double zipper.

It's made of canvas, which may be hard to clean but is water-resistant.

Fun fact: dopp kits were originally designed for men so it makes perfect sense why this one is designed to fit shaving and grooming products in particular. It's made of canvas for a rough-and-tumble look, and it's offered in six colors (mostly neutrals, but also light pink) and two sizes. Though we consider it sturdy enough to stand on its own, we also found it flexible enough to stuff into a packed weekender.

As for storage capabilities, there's a main compartment that's accessible via a double zipper, which means the kit opens nice and wide for you to be able to access your items. That main compartment can fit bulkier items, while smaller items can fill the pockets along the sides. There are also two separate side pockets, one of which is designed to hold wet items.

The Details: 10.2 x 5.9 x 6.3 inches | 6.4 ounces | Canvas | Water-resistant

Best Hanging Bag

Sea to summit hanging toiletry bag.

Small and lightweight, it's perfectly portable.

It has to hang as it won't stand up on its own.

When it comes to hanging bags, this one is perfectly balanced. It's made from an ultrathin, water-resistant nylon and takes the shape of a saddlebag, which is ideal for hanging. We found that no matter how many items we stuffed in there, the bag never really felt weighed down; all the products were perfectly situated and easy to access, thanks to a plethora of pockets.

This bag also comes with a detachable mirror, which makes it great for outdoor adventures when you don't have access to a vanity, as well as handles for easy transport. Ultimately, it is perfect for people limited on space and weight, whether they're on a multiday trek that requires them to carry all their gear or traveling for an extended period of time with limited storage space. The toiletry bag comes in two sizes (we tested the smaller one) and three color options.

The Details: 9 x 6 x 3 inches (small); 10 x 9 x 4 inches (large) | 2.8 ounces (small); 4 ounces (large) | 3-liter capacity (small); 6-liter capacity (large) | Nylon | Water-resistant

Best Budget

Wandf toiletry bag.

It's the most affordable option on this list and comes in more than 20 colors.

The main compartment only has one zipper, which makes it a little tough to retrieve items.

As you're probably well aware by this point, toiletry bags can get quite expensive — but they don't have to be. This is a particularly budget-friendly model, yet it accomplishes just about everything you'd need a toiletry bag to do. For one, it has multiple compartments. And for another, it's a water-resistant case, which means it can handle being splashed on a bathroom counter.

The compartments are both the success and the downfall of this toiletry bag. We were beyond impressed with the amount of space inside the main compartment, as well as with the two side compartments with mesh pockets. But we found that the main compartment was almost too spacious and could benefit from another divider of some kind. Given its size, it could also benefit from a double zipper opening, which would allow you to access more items throughout the bag than the existing single zipper.

The Details: 10.24 x 4.72 x 5.91 inches | 3.53 ounces | Nylon | Water-resistant

Best Splurge

Tumi response travel kit.

It opens like a clamshell for easy access.

The outer material is not water-resistant.

Luxury brand Tumi doesn't only make high-end suitcases and travel bags — it also makes high-end toiletry bags. Made from ballistic nylon, this is one of the most durable toiletry bags out there, and it wouldn't be surprising if this bag lasted years, even with regular use.

Its best feature is the fact that it opens like a clamshell, with two distinct compartments in each half. That makes it easy to access everything in the bag, whether you're laying it flat on a countertop or you're hanging it via the attached hook. There are four pockets, including one water-resistant one, and two elastic loops to hold products like toothbrushes or razors. We think it’s a reasonably spacious bag, but only for travel-size products — that's why we'd recommend it for short trips rather than long ones.

The Details: 6.3 x 9.5 x 3.5 inches | 14.4 ounces | Ballistic nylon

Other Toiletry Bags We Liked

The following three toiletry bags didn’t quite make our main list but still offer some handy features that some travelers might find useful. 

Briggs & Riley Baseline Executive Essentials Kit : This fairly large toiletry bag can hold plenty — we had more than enough room for travel-size hair and skin care products for a weeklong trip. But the lack of interior organization makes it difficult to keep things in place. It might be better suited for carrying fewer larger products instead of numerous smaller ones.

Travel + Leisure / Ella Crosby

Thule Subterra 2 Toiletry Bag : This toiletry bag's standout feature is a removable plastic interior pouch, which you can use to keep liquids separate (a plus for going through airport security and to prevent leaks!). It also has various pockets to keep your things organized.

Travel + Leisure / Elizabeth Rhodes

Bagsmart Large Hanging Toiletry Bag : This hanging toiletry bag has four separate compartments to keep your belongings organized — and it has the capacity to hold many belongings, too. But it's not a particularly protective or durable bag with its softside material, which could be a problem for transporting certain products.

Travel + Leisure / Joy Kim

We tested 58 toiletry bags and cosmetics cases in our lab and during real-world tests to determine the best products to travel with. Testing started with an analysis of each bag when it was empty; we examined the materials, the construction, and the overall design.

We packed each bag full with toiletries, makeup, and essentials, taking notes of the case’s capacity and organizational design features, such as compartments, pockets, hanging straps, and hooks. If the toiletry bag was advertised as waterproof, we held the bag under running water to see if anything inside got wet and how quickly the bag dried. We packed the toiletry bags into different types of travel bags to see how portable they felt, including weekenders , carry-ons, and checked luggage. 

After our initial lab tests, we sent the toiletry bags home with editors to test for an additional six months on their real-world travels to gather further insights, including how durable they are.

Tips for Buying a Toiletry Bag

Look at the design of the bag.

Some toiletry bags are voids — they have one cavernous space to fit all your items. But others are separated into compartments with pockets and pouches to keep your items in place. Depending on what you're storing in your toiletry bag, you might prefer more organizational tools than a single open space. Some toiletry bags have additional features like built-in mirrors or removable pouches. Also consider the material: more durable, water-resistant materials are ideal for toiletry bags, since they'll be getting quite a bit of use on the road.

Consider capacity and the items you pack

What do you plan on putting in a toiletry bag? If you're a minimalist who carries very few toiletries — say, just face wash and toothpaste — you might only need a small case. But if you have an extensive skincare routine — including sunscreen and after-sun lotion — and you travel with all your makeup, you'll need a bag with enough space for everything.

Think about portability

If you plan on taking your toiletry bag in your carry-on, you'll want it to be as compact and lightweight as possible to save room for everything else in your bag. And if you're packing liquids, gels, or aerosols, make sure your items’ sizes comply with the TSA's 3-1-1 rule . If you're checking your toiletry bag, though, you might have more flexibility with size and weight.

Since toiletry bags frequently come into contact with liquids — either from leaking products or from the bathroom counter — water-resistant or waterproof materials are best. Another factor to consider is durability. Toiletry bags are typically fairly heavily used when you travel, so it's best to look for tear-proof fabric that will hold up over time.

A TSA-approved toiletry bag is one that meets the TSA's requirements for the 3-1-1 rule regarding liquids, aerosols, gels, creams and pastes packed in carry-ons. These products must be 3.4 ounces or 100 milliliters or less, and they all must fit in " 1 quart size, clear, plastic, zip top bag ."

You can pack just about anything in a toiletry bag, from heatless hair curlers to body washes to makeup. Depending on what you plan on putting in your toiletry bag, you may want to look for ones with special pockets — many toiletry bags have designated spots for items like makeup brushes or palettes to keep them secure.

Why Trust Travel + Leisure

Stefanie Waldek is a freelance writer with a decade of experience covering travel — she flies more than 200,000 miles per year and spends dozens of nights in hotels and on cruises. For this article, she incorporated tester feedback and used her own experience with toiletry bags. While she often gravitates toward repurposing airline amenity kits as toiletry bags, she also rotates between Bagsmart, Container Store, and Monos toiletry bags (she particularly likes the latter, as the Mono Metro Kit attaches easily to the outside of the Monos Metro line of bags, saving space inside).

Some travel bags are smaller, with a simple interior, and others are larger with more pockets. What you decide to invest in comes down to how long you'll be traveling for and whether or not you like to travel light or heavy. Regardless of your preferences, just know that there are plenty of options out there for you. In fact, Women's Health editors tested and rounded up seven of their favorite picks to help you decide on the best one for you. Before you shop though, here are a few things to keep in mind.

What to consider

The goal is to find something that will fit all your personal care items without taking up a ton of space, being mindful that TSA rules will also limit the sizes of these products. "TSA’s 3-1-1 rule states that all liquids must be in containers that are 3.4 ounces or 100 milliliters or less and fit inside one clear, quart-sized, resealable bag," says travel expert and blogger at The Smart Travel Guide Peggy Carlaw. "The trick to packing a toiletry bag is decanting your own products into small containers or purchasing travel-sized containers." This hack will save you space while lowering your bag weight. Once you do this, choose a bag that's big enough to hold the amount of containers and makeup you're traveling with.

Finding a bag that fits within your budget is the priority. That said, certain materials are more travel-friendly than others. Carlaw recommends a bag made from either nylon or polyester. "These are long-lasting, lightweight, water-resistant, and easy to clean," she says. "Cotton and some other fabrics are not waterproof, hard to keep clean, and not sturdy enough to protect their contents," she adds.

Water-resistance

While this feature is optional, having a water-resistant bag will ensure that everything else in your suitcase will stay dry if any of your toiletries spill out or leak during travel. At the same time, if your luggage gets wet or clothes get damp, all the items in your toiletry bag (like powders, medications, and electronics) will stay dry. This is especially helpful if you're traveling somewhere where the humidity is high, Carlaw says.

How 'Women's Health' selected

For the past year, Women’s Health editors, including associate health and wellness editor Tianna Soto and lifestyle commerce editor Jasmine Gomez , tested the bestselling, most popular, and top-rated travel toiletry bags. Our team consulted one travel expert and evaluated bags based on size, fabric material, ease of use, and more to narrow down the seven best travel toiletry bags for a wide range of needs and preferences.

Below, check out the seven best travel toiletry bags, tested by Women's Health editors.

After testing several travel toiletry bags over the past few weeks, our best overall pick is this hanging toiletry bag from Pavilia. For starters, it hits all the callouts that our expert recommends—clear plastic pockets, a water-resistant shell, and polyester material.

The hook at the top makes it easy to see and access your items without having to take them all out, or having to dig through each pocket. Editors also like that this bag has a budget-friendly price of $24, which is a total steal compared to some of the more pricier options on this list.

Women's Health health editor Tianna Soto appreciates that this bag comes with eight pockets that fit all of her self-care products. For her, it makes organizing a breeze, and it folds up without taking up too much space in her luggage. However, she notes that if you over-pack it too often, there's a chance that the zipper can get stuck. Additionally, it might not be the best choice if you value your privacy while traveling with company. "If you’re sharing a hotel room with someone and don’t want everyone to see what you have in there, you may not love the clear pockets," she says.

If you swear by all things Lululemon, you'll be thrilled to know they have a toiletry bag that's perfect for your next trip. It comes with three main pockets that can be easily folded up. Unlike some other options on this list, this bag is closed using a security buckle, ensuring that your belongings won't fall out during travel.

WH lifestyle and commerce editor Jasmine Gomez is a big fan of this bag because of its waterproof-material and mesh pocket, which she says makes room for some items that need more breathability (think: makeup sponges and toothbrushes).

She also likes that it provides easy access to her products. "I love that it rolls out vertically with a hook at the top, making it easy to access what I need without having to dig through an entire bag," she says. One thing to keep in mind is that there isn't an added layer of protection for whatever is inside, aside from the pockets. So keeping this in your backpack or in a hardshell suitcase might be best.

When it comes to durability, this toiletry bag from Fjallraven is our top pick, especially if you're a frequent flyer. We like that the fabric feels sturdy, and it's on the thicker side, so it can easily stand up against frequent use or bumpy trips. The dark color makes any dirt or marks less noticeable, too. It comes with two spacious compartments that can fit anything from makeup to skincare or haircare. Because the pockets inside aren't clear like some of the other bags on this list, you might have to dig around in different sections to find what you're looking for, though.

Still, this option is well worth your dime, according to WH associate news editor Charlotte Walsh. "I typically have to pack two separate bags—one for my makeup and the other for shower products—but with this, I can fit it all in one!" she says. She also appreciates the waxed fabric liner inside, which serves as a barrier in case anything spills.

Victoria's Secret Travel Toiletry Bag

Travel Toiletry Bag

A personal favorite of WH beauty editors, this toiletry bag from Victoria's Secret has deep pockets that are perfect for those who prefer the perks of a roll-up bag with the structure of something more durable. It comes with two main compartments and one smaller one that sits closest to the hanging hook. While this bag isn't water-resistant, we appreciate that the clear pockets make it easy to find your belongings.

"It's easy to see everything that's in the bag without having to spread everything out on the sink and make a mess," says WH senior beauty editor Danielle Jackson. She adds that this bag eliminates the need to bring two toiletry bags with her since the pockets are extra spacious.

Mark & Graham Clear Coated Cosmetic Train Case

Clear Coated Cosmetic Train Case

Feel like splurging? You will adore this customizable toiletry bag from Mark & Graham. While this is the most expensive option on our round up, the variety of prints to choose from, in addition to its durability and deep double pockets, make it worth every penny.

Its rectangular shape allows for a smooth packing process, as it can easily fit into the corner of a small suitcase or duffel. It also has a handle on top that provides "easy access when you're digging around in your bag after a late-night or early-morning arrival," says WH features editor Currie Engel. "[The bag] makes me feel like an incredibly put-together person even on my most hectic and chaotic trips." If you're not shopping for yourself, this bag also makes for a great gift for your jet-setting bestie or family member.

Herschel Milan Toiletry Bag

Milan Toiletry Bag

The most stylish option on this list, this toiletry bag from Herschel is great for quick weekend getaways. It's on the smaller side and made from vegan leather. The bag comes with an expandable internal and rear storage sleeve, and it's available in six colors and two sizes. It's worth noting that while this bag is fashion-forward, it doesn't have clear pockets and isn't big enough to guarantee that all your travel must-haves can be stored away.

Ultimately, it will securely store whatever you do travel with, though. WH executive digital director Amanda Woerner, who has been using hers for years, is a fan of this bag for its overall quality. "Herschel toiletry bags hold a ton of makeup and skincare products, and despite the fact that various tinted moisturizers, face washes, and who knows what else, have spilled inside there for years, it's still in great shape," she says.

Beis The Cosmetic Pouch Set

The Cosmetic Pouch Set

Some people prefer to have one bag, while others don't mind two. Whether it be for organizational purposes or for having two bags to use individually, you can't go wrong with this matching set from Beis. These are not water-resistant nor do they have clear pockets, but editors like that they're compact enough to fit in small suitcases, and that you're essentially getting two bags for the price of one. Plus, they're a sleek and stylish option for travel.

"I love the matching neutral color, and the bigger size means that I can still squeeze in some of my full-size products," says Walsh. She notes that one downside to the rounded shape of the bags is that you lose some of the extra space that you may get from a square pouch.

Dimensions: 9.75 x 11.5 x 3.5 inches |  Capacity:  6 liters | Materials: Nylon packcloth | Colors: 12 total

This bestselling toiletry bag from L.L.Bean checks a lot of boxes at once: It’s durable, water-resistant, has ample storage and smart organization compartments, and has a hinged design for easy access. The built-in hook is handy for travel, especially if you’re staying in small spaces with limited bathroom space, plus the shower caddy safely stows your bottles as you bathe. It comes in three sizes; we like the medium for a long trip or a couple, while the large —which has an impressive 9-liter capacity—is a great toiletry storage solution for the whole family.

Four Storage Compartments

Bagsmart bonchemin the space saver toiletry bag.

Dimensions: 11 x 7.4 x 3 inches (rolled), 11 x 30 inches (open) |  Capacity:  Not listed | Materials: 3D-knit polyester | Colors: 14 total

This pick from Bagsmart zips open to reveal four storage compartments for all your toiletries and then some. Each zippered section has a transparent window for easy viewing, while the exterior’s made of a quilted peachy-soft, water-resistant fabric that’s chic enough to put on display at home. The pouches at the top and bottom are perfect for smaller items like razors and mini bottles, and the two main areas are roomy enough to fit some full-size toiletries. Whether you end up using this at home or on the go, your belongings will stay organized and accessible, all without breaking the bank.

Best For Organization

Opens wide to reveal a pocket for everything.

Peak Design

Peak Design Wash Pouch

Dimensions: 10.2 x 6 x 4.4 inches |  Capacity:  2.5 liters | Materials: 100% recycled weatherproof 200D nylon  | Colors: 3 total

This toiletry bag from Peak Design is built to last for years. The Wash Pouch has a compact silhouette, although once you zip it open, you’ll discover an array of organization options to stow your toiletries, down to the magnetic toothbrush pocket—complete with a removable liner that’s washable. The silicone-coated mesh pockets are a great touch, as are the large main sections with handy slots to keep bottles in place and the smaller exterior pockets for easy accessibility. The aluminum hook lets you hang your pouch just about anywhere, but one thing to note: Several reviewers say the hook is a little shallow, causing the bag to slip off pretty easily.

Best Compact

Ample storage in a small, durable package, aer travel kit 2.

Dimensions: 9 x 6.5 x 3 inches |  Capacity:  2.5 liters | Materials: 700D Cordura | Colors: 3 total

The Aer Travel Kit 2 has an ultra-slim profile, but there’s room to store a lot more than one might expect at first glance. There’s multiple compartments to keep your essentials organized, like an exterior toothbrush holder, zippered pockets and elastic bands designed to secure travel-sized bottles. Another bonus: The interior is treated with an anti-microbial lining the keep mildew at bay, plus the durable Cordura exterior is easy to rinse off and air dry if necessary.

Best Waterproof

Leak-proof for peace of mind, matador flatpak waterproof toiletry case.

Dimensions: 9.5 x 5.5 x 3.75 inches |  Capacity:  2 liters | Materials: 30D Cordura | Colors: 3 total

If you’ve ever experienced a toiletry bag leak, you already know how annoying it is to deal with damp clothes when you reach your destination. The FlatPak Waterproof Toiletry Case from Matador solves that problem. It features a simple roll-top, buckled design—similar to dry bags used for water sports—and a durable stand-up bottom that holds up against multiple surfaces. The heavy-duty Cordura exterior is fully waterproof, but in case anything spills inside, it comes equipped with a unique Dry-Through technology that’s designed to let water evaporate when the case is closed. White it doesn’t have the fancy storage compartments like some of the other bags on our list, it does have a durable loop perfect for hanging from a bathroom hook—or a branch, if you’re camping.

Best Hanging Bag

Multiple compartments and a detachable pouch, venture 4th hanging toiletry bag.

Dimensions: 12 x 12 x 10 inches |  Capacity:  Not listed | Materials: 420D nylon | Colors: 20 total

A hanging toiletry bag that fully opens up not only saves space, it also makes your items more accessible when you’re on the road. This sizable option from Venture 4th offers ample storage for full-size bottles and accessories, a detachable, TSA-friendly see-through pouch for small liquid items and a multi-purpose hook. The hook is multi-purpose: When open, the bag hangs from a door or towel rod, or for a stable countertop solution, the top flap folds around the main compartment and the hook attaches to a back loop, creating a base for the bag in its upright position. Two side accordian-style pockets unzip to provide extra space for dry or wet items, while the many mesh and PVC pockets provide a place for everything else you need to bring on your big trip.

Best For Women

Design-forward and sustainable, mz wallace metro accordian cosmetic.

Dimensions: 7.48 x 4.33 x 4.33 inches |  Capacity:  Not listed | Materials: Bluesign-approved REC Oxford | Colors: 2 total

A travel toiletry bag needs to be durable, of course, but that’s doesn’t mean it can’t be stylish. MZ Wallace’s Metro Accordian Cosmetic hits both marks: It’s made of the brand’s proprietary fabric blend, REC Oxford, which recycles pre-consumer manufacturer scraps and turns it into a long-lasting, chemical-free textile. With a quilted exterior and a box-like silhouette that could easily double as a handbag for a night out, it unzips to reveal five accordian-style compartments for toiletries, makeup and more. The black Italian leather trim and matte black zippers amp up the style points, so you can look good and store a lot simultaneously. If black is a bit too minimal for your taste, check out the metallic copper version , available for a slightly higher price.

Best For Men

Easy access with two grab handles and a locking hook, wandrd toiletry bag.

Dimensions: 5.5 x 9 x 4 inches |  Capacity:  3 liters | Materials: N420 Robic | Colors: Black

Another compact solution with a surprising amount of storage, Wandrd’s Toiletry Bag offers organization and easy access. It opens wide to reveal a main interior section and has multiple areas designed to hold smaller items, including a toothbrush sleeve and zippered front pocket for razor. It’s water-resistant—although not technically waterproof—but the fabric is so durable, it comes with a lifetime guarantee. Another cool feature: The webbing loops and clips can be used to attach it to other Wandrd products, like the PRVKE travel backpack, or a carry strap can be added to instantly transform the toiletry bag into a crossbody sling for daytime sightseeing.

How long I’ve been using it: Since 2019; I use this one when I'm traveling with just a carry-on.

Why I like it : The Peak Design bag is water-resistant, making it easy to clean up any spills, and I like that there is a specific compartment for my toothbrush and another for my razor. Inside, there are a ton of small pouches to keep items organized. It’s my go-to for a long weekend trip.

3 products you’ll always find inside :  Cadence Capsules , my  Quip toothbrush , and  contact solution .

How long I’ve been using it: Nine months; it is the one I use when I'm checking a bag.

Why I like it : If I’m traveling for a week or more, I’ll bring Calpak’s clear cosmetic case in the large size. I’ll admit, I was overwhelmed by the size when it first arrived, but it does fit absolutely everything—toiletries, skincare, make-up, even my hairbrush, vitamins, and full-size contact solutions—and it’s nice to have everything in one place. Plus, the clear design means I can double-check that everything’s there at a glance.

How long I’ve been using it: Eight months

Why I like it : This floral toiletry bag is so functional and versatile: it works just as well to organize makeup products and tech accessories as it does toiletry essentials. I recently brought it with me on a weekend trip and I was so impressed with how much I could fit inside this seemingly small bag. I was able to keep my travel-size face wash and moisturizer laying flat inside, along with other must-haves like sunscreen and deodorant. I used the two elastic slip pockets to keep Q-tips and my contact lenses separate from everything else. I also utilized the thin slip pockets on the top of the bag for my go-to lip balm and lip liner. The bag is compact enough that it didn’t take up much room in my weekender bag, but still tall enough that some products can stand up straight inside, like my contact solution and small Vaseline tub. Bonus: It’s made of water-resistant fabric and features a top handle to easily carry it around.

3 products you’ll always find inside : I never travel without my  Supergoop! Unseen sunscreen ,  Vaseline , and a  travel-size CeraVe hydrating face wash .

How long I’ve been using it:  A year and a half

Why I like it:  There’s something about Ceremonia 's colorful "market" pouch that puts me in instant vacation mode. It’s more of a makeup bag than a traditional Dopp kit, with a single main zippered compartment and no internal pockets, but that’s why I love it. Well, that and the fact that it’s also very cute and handmade from upcycled materials. It has a spill-proof lining—ideal for throwing greasy sunscreen bottles and my smudgy Marvis toothpaste in—and can fit about a weekend’s worth of product, which is really all I need and tend to use anyway (even on longer trips). Did I mention it’s also a great beach bag companion?

3 products you’ll always find inside: Victoria Beckham's Future Lash , which gives the prettiest natural lift and rinses off with warm water; the  fragrance oil I wear every day; and extra  slip silk scrunchies , because you never know when one will vanish into the void.

best large travel toiletry bag women's

How long I’ve been using it: 10 months

Why I like it:  The space inside surprised me the most. I travel very light, and that applies not only to my carry-on but my toiletries as well. I take only the necessities. The toiletry case comes with five individual pockets that line the interior which is surprisingly roomy; if that’s not enough, then I can always stack my toiletries on top of one another in the center. I’ll often worry about my toiletry bottles becoming loose and leaking onto my clothes, but the one time I did have a mishap my anxiety was quelled once I saw the bag kept it contained.

3 products you’ll always find inside:   Sol de Janiero Brazilian Bum Bum Cream ,  La Roche-Posay Toleriane Double Repair UV SPF Moisturizer, and the  Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Parfum in the travel-size bottle.

More Dopp kits we recommend

best large travel toiletry bag women's

“I don’t own this bag yet, but I think I need to. I spotted it on Instagram, and it’s the exact type of Dopp kit I’ve been looking for. With toothbrush and razor holders, an interior mesh pocket, a side pocket, and even elastic straps to stick in Chapstick, mascara, or whatever, it feels like a super smart organizing system (especially in contrast to my current method of throwing everything haphazardly into a roomy  Baggu pouch ). I love that it’s water-resistant, and the squared-off shape makes so much sense among my packing cubes. I also think the Terra collection this bag is a part of, which includes earth-toned, rugged-ready bags with tons of straps and compartments, is what might finally get me into  Calpak luggage —this Dopp kit feels like  Patagonia and  Baboon to the Moon  got together and decided to make a toiletry set for women who like a “gear” look but also want to organize their skin care products.”  — Megan Spurrell , senior editor

Inside this neutral-hued pouch you’ll find a large zippered mesh pouch that can fit makeup essentials, dental care items, or skincare products.

What our editors say:

This toiletry bag perfectly fits all of my travel-sized essentials for a trip and I love the separated compartment pockets. It's pretty small and its soft exterior makes it easy to shove into a carry-on or a personal item without taking up too much room. It also sits upright on its own, which is a nice touch. – Erin Evans , Managing Editor

The Nido Accessory Bag can fit a lot – much more than I expected, in fact. I can pack my electric toothbrush (with its case!), a full-sized toothpaste, a hairbrush, makeup and more. Even with how much it can fit, I don't find that the bag takes up a lot of space in my carry-on. I especially love the Nido's three different compartments (plus a zippered pocket) to organize my toiletries and accessories. – Leilani Osmundson , Senior Digital Producer

The Topo Designs Dopp Kit is bigger than it looks, and its main compartment offers plenty of space for all the necessities including a razor. The bag is available in a variety of bright two-toned styles and solid colors.

The Topo Designs Dopp Kit's bright colors and unique triangular shape inspired my initial purchase, but its versatility and durability quickly made it my go-to toiletry kit for every type of travel. The spacious bag works just as well in my carry-on as on a camping trip and has stood up to countless spilled shampoos and exploded toothpaste tubes. The Dopp kit stays upright on counters, while the attached hook makes it easy to hang and dry. – Zach Watson , Senior Editor

Inside, the main compartment features a patterned lining and two zippered pockets: one on the back wall and another on the lid. On the outside, there are two side pockets plus a front pocket with a divider for even more organization.

I've had this toiletry bag for four years, and it is the first thing I pack for every trip! I absolutely adore its compact design, multiple zippered compartments that make it easy to reach your essentials without having to sort through an entire toiletry bag, and the wipeable interior (for when that foundation or shampoo leaks in transit). For longer trips, I have the Lug Trolley , which can even fit a curling iron. – Rachael Hood , Senior Editor

While this kit comes in a few sizes, the large is my favorite. It fits everything I need for a trip, from shower essentials to makeup to medicine. The plastic front on the upper two compartments is beginning to wear away, but I can deal with that considering I've had mine for more than 10 years (if not longer). – Marisa Méndez , Senior Editor

Dimensions: 5.5 x 8.3 x 3.15 inches

If you're looking for a small toiletry bag that can be used for short trips, this is the one. But don't let the small size (and name) of this toiletry bag fool you. Two interior zippered compartments – one clear, one mesh – are big enough to hold all of your travel-size toiletries plus medications for even longer trips, and the zippered exterior pocket is perfect for makeup wipes. When you inevitably get the bag wet, its water-resistant nylon material makes it easy to wipe dry. The Small Toiletry Bag is available in black, navy, blue gray and white.

This is the toiletry bag equivalent of Mary Poppins' bag. It holds way more than it looks like it can. – Amanda Norcross

Price: $55 or less

Dimensions: 8 x 8.31 x 3.5 inches

Not only is this hanging toiletry bag well organized, but it also costs less than $15 at Target. The toiletry bag has a built-in hanger, four mesh pockets (two of which have zippers) and an additional compartment that can hold travel-size (or even full-size) toiletries and makeup. It also has an external tote handle. The Open Story Small Hanging Toiletry bag is currently available in light blue.

I've used this toiletry bag for a couple years now, and it's great for my travel needs. The hanging hook saves me a lot of space, and there's plenty of organization inside – all for an incredibly affordable price. – Catriona Kendall , Editor

Price: $12.99 or less

Fawn The Toiletry Case Large in brown against white background.

Dimensions: 6.5 x 9.5 x 3.5 inches

For a clear toiletry bag that makes it easy to see all of your essentials – plus a faux leather trim and matte gold zippers that make it just plain pretty – frequent travelers recommend this option by Fawn. Two interior compartments are large enough to hold both toiletries and makeup, and top grab handles make it easy to pull out of your luggage and transport wherever you go.

I was initially drawn to this bag for its clear vinyl compartments, but after using it for about a year I've been pleasantly surprised by how many items it can hold. I'm able to fit all my travel-size skin care and hair care products, and it doesn't take up too much space in my carry-on. It's also very easy to clean. – Ann Henson , Assistant Managing Editor

Price: $59.99 or less

Best Leather: Mark & Graham Dual Travel Organizer – Large

Dimensions: 6 x 9.5 x 2.25 inches

This toiletry bag is both elegant and efficient. Crafted with vegan leather, it's available in eight colors, including red, blush, camel, white and navy, all of which are accented by gold zippers. The toiletry bag has two spacious compartments and conveniently sits upright on flat surfaces.

I really like my large Dual Travel Organizer from Mark and Graham. The main compartment can hold your basic makeup essentials and a travel-sized toothbrush, and the bottom zippered section is ideal for jewelry, a contact lens case or hair ties. The vegan leather material is both soft and environmentally friendly, and you can also get the bag monogrammed for a personal touch. – Nicola Wood , Senior Editor

Price: $99 or less

TripSavvy / Tamara Staples

After you've organized your suitcase or weekender, the next and possibly biggest challenge is to pack your toiletry bag. While this might seem an afterthought, it's a pretty important step, especially if you don't want to arrive at your destination and realize you forgot to pack your sunscreen or open your bag to spilled body wash. Whether you're more of a minimalist or carry your entire 10-step beauty routine with you, there's something for everyone. 

To help you find the right one, we tested 27 toiletry bags, rating them for capacity, design, portability, and value.

Best Overall

Sea to summit hanging toiletry bag.

  • Capacity 5 /5
  • Design 5 /5
  • Portability 5 /5

Designed for organization

Tough exterior

Plenty of thoughtful additions

Nothing yet

Sea to Summit's Travelling Light Hanging Toiletry Bag impressed our testers, earning top marks across all categories. The Australian outdoor gear brand has been on a mission to build the lightest, most durable gear for more than three decades. Our testers loved how much space this lightweight toiletry bag has and its numerous pockets. "This is a great hanging bag because you can store different-size products inside without feeling like you're weighing the bag down," one tester noted.

The Travelling Light Bag, which weighs less than 5 ounces, is made from Cordura nylon. This material helps keep the weight down and offers stretch, allowing room for all the toiletries. Our testers liked the bag's convenient features, including a carrying handle and hanging hook. "There are tons of pockets, a mirror, hooks to hang the bag, and other unique features that are perfect for every trip," a tester concluded.

Size: 10 x 9 x 4 inches | Weight: 4.7 ounces | Material: Cordura nylon

Best Budget

Wandf toiletry bag.

  • Design 4 /5
  • Portability 4 /5

Generous amount of space

Very lightweight

Not very compact

The first thing to know about WANDF's Toiletry Bag is that it has a ton of capacity, so much so that our testers joked that it could double as an overnight bag. Jests aside, this was a popular bag because of how much it holds and how little it weighs (just 3.6 ounces). "This is a great buy for someone who wants to bring a lot of skincare or other products along with normal toiletries," one tester said.

The bag's water-resistant nylon is thin but durable. It has three pockets for good organization and a handle for easier transportation. Our testers did say that it might be hard to fit in a smaller bag, especially if you take advantage of the size and pack it to maximum capacity. If you're looking for a larger-capacity toiletry bag or simply a budget bag, this was our testers' top pick.

Size: 9.5 x 5.9 x 4.7 inches | Weight: 3.6 ounces | Material: Water-resistant nylon

Bagsmart Toiletry Bag

Very spacious

Zippered mesh pockets are helpful

Sturdy yet compressible

Customer reviews complain about the color

This classic-looking toiletry bag impressed our testers with its durable materials, organization potential, and smart features, including a waterproof pocket. The large-capacity toiletry bag is made from water-resistant polyurethane leather, features double zippers in the main compartment, and has mesh holders to keep items like toothbrushes in place.

"The material is classic, zippers are easy to zip, and the compartment with the waterproof coating is very handy and will be easy to clean," one tester noted. "It's structured enough to keep organized but still flexible enough to fit easily in a weekender bag." Our testers said they'd pay more for this than the minimal list price. "It's a great price for something that feels durable and will last for a long time," one tester concluded.

Size: 10.25 x 6.25 x 5 inches | Weight: 0.62 pounds | Material: Polyurethane leather

Best Hanging

Bagsmart hanging toiletry bag.

Durable design

Easy to pack

Water-resistant material

Not the easiest to clean

Once you arrive at your hotel or vacation rental, finding a place to stash your toiletry bag can be tricky, especially if counter space is limited. Luckily, this bag's hook makes the most of limited or nonexistent space. This is a great way to keep items visible but still out of your way as you get dressed. The interior mesh pockets also help with visibility. There's even a smaller, removable compartment you can hang up.

"This bag fit all of the toiletries and still had room to spare, but only for travel-sized products," one tester said about the bag's capacity. "The design of this hanging bag was pleasantly sturdy." Our testers also liked the spacious organizational components and how the bag folds, which gives it a slim briefcase look. They also loved how easily the slender profile fits into a weekender bag.

Size: 12.6 x 9.1 x 4.3 inches | Weight: 15.8 ounces | Material: Polyester

Best Splurge

Away large toiletry bag.

Made of recycled materials

Stores bulky items well

Lets you see everything at a glance

Limited colors

For fans of the iconic suitcase brand, the toiletry bag is another worthy addition to your Away collection. Like many of Away's bags, this thoughtfully designed bag keeps your toiletries organized and separated. The clamshell opening displays items perfectly through the mesh and clear plastic interior pockets. The nylon material is easy to clean should you ever have a spill. Bonus: The bag can even be monogrammed on the front or back.

Thanks to some unique features, our testers loved how roomy this bag was. "I packed mostly large items, such as makeup brushes, foundation, and a compact mirror, and there was still tons of room to insert more," one tester reported. "There are different types of pockets inside the bag—one for makeup brushes, one clear pocket for makeup products, and others for whatever you'd like to put in."

The bag helped with organization, and our testers liked the top handle. "The fact that it can fit so many items and still not take up so much space says a lot about the bag. It can also carry a lot of weight," a tester noted. Our testers weren't the biggest fans of the nylon material but noted that it is water-resistant. And while they said bags with similar features could be found at a lower cost, they would still recommend this one. "I'd love to purchase it if it wasn't so pricey for a toiletry bag, but if you need organization and travel often, then this bag is a must," a tester concluded.

Size: 10.2 x 3.7 x 5.9 inches | Weight: 8.8 ounces | Material: Nylon

Best Organization

Peak design wash pouch.

Extra durable

Fits into other bags easily

Contains recycled materials

A bit on the pricey side

The first key to good organization is having plenty of room for all your toiletries. Peak Design's Wash Pouch offers exactly that, with our testers noting that they had plenty of room to fit all of their toiletries and then some. "I'd be able to put my skincare products in here along with several travel-sized toiletry bottles ," our tester said, noting that they loved the product's design. It also opens wide for easy packing and accessibility. "There were plenty of pockets and even a shallow zipper pocket to hold a toothbrush," our tester reported, also praising how it sits open upright on the counter on its own. Bonus: Despite the large size and roominess, it still packs down to a small size.

Size: 10.6 x 6 x 4.4 inches | Weight: 8.7 ounces | Material: Recycled, DWR-treated nylon

Best for Extended Trips

Dare to roam steward dopp kit.

Impressive capacity

Eco-friendly

Less likely to harbor microbes

Bulkier than other options

There's much to like about the Dare to Roam Steward Dopp Kit. It features responsibly sourced materials and ethically made construction. It uses antimicrobial and water-resistant materials—features we'd like to see in many more toiletry bags, considering the amount of liquid and moisture these containers are exposed to.

What our testers loved most about this particular toiletry bag was the amount of space available, making it ideal for extended trips. The main compartment has a ton of room and a two-way zipper entry. It also features side clips and adjustable webbing straps, making the bag expandable on both sides. Our testers had no problem fitting all their toiletries into the bag and then some. "This bag is designed well and is built to really hold up," a tester reported. "The handles and lightweight feel of the bag make it perfectly portable."

While this bag did take up a lot of space when packed in another bag, it's best used for extended trips on which travelers are likely to use larger luggage anyway.

Size: 4.5 x 8.7 x 4.7 inches | Weight: Not listed | Material: Polyester, nylon 

Best for Camping

Matador flatpak zipper toiletry case.

  • Capacity 4 /5

Stripped-down but serviceable

Built to last

One large pocket

May be too simplistic for some

Toiletry bags aren't only handy for traveling. They're also helpful when backpacking and camping. For that usage, we love Matador's FlatPak Toiletry Case. The FlatPak checks off three key boxes when looking for a camping- or backpacking-focused toiletry bag. It's super lightweight (1.1 ounces), it's fully waterproof, and it has one main compartment for easy access to all items. Simply put: It's a no-frills yet incredibly practical bag.

Our testers were impressed with the bag's capacity—it fits all toiletries without getting overly bulky. They also loved its durability, waterproof material, and how the bottom of the bag expands. "For someone who goes on lots of camping or rugged outdoor trips, this bag is a great value," one tester concluded.

Size: 9.5 x 6.75 x 3.5 inches | Weight: 1.1 ounces | Material: 30-denier Cordura nylon

Best Eco-Friendly

Cotopaxi nido accessory bag.

  • Portability 4.5 /5
  • Value 4.5 /5

Nice internal organization

Not ideal for extended trips

Cotopaxi's marketing slogan is "Gear for Good." This dopp kit, which features 100 percent recycled materials, definitely falls into that category, but besides being a responsibly created toiletry bag, it's simply a good toiletry bag. The bag has three compartments to separate different items, fits a reasonable amount of toiletries, and has a convenient side carry handle. Another huge step toward planet friendliness is the longevity and durability of the product. We love that this toiletry bag is constructed to last many years and maybe decades.

Size: 9 x 6 x 5 inches | Weight: 6.5 ounces | Material: Recycled nylon with a TPU coating 

Hitting it out of the park and claiming a perfect score on all our tests for capacity, design, portability, and value, the Sea to Summit Travelling Light Hanging Toiletry Bag is hard to beat. Another favorite of our testers for its generous capacity and reasonable price tag, the WANDF Toiletry Bag is light and comes in a range of bright and neutral colors.

To determine the products to include in this test, we researched the top-rated products on the market from multiple retailers, considered popular and traveler-loved brands, and relied on the knowledge of our travel editors and their experience with a variety of toiletry bags. We also aimed to include a variety of sizes, price points, and intended uses.

We tested all 27 toiletry bags in our New York City lab space. Bags were rated on a five-point scale and evaluated for capacity, design, portability, and overall value. We averaged scores across individual categories to give an overall score. Testers packed each bag with the types and quantities of toiletries that would last for a long weekend trip. Once the toiletry bags were packed, our testers took notes on how full the bags were and any unique organizational or structural features. Lastly, they placed the toiletry bags in weekender bags and carried them around to get a sense of how heavy the toiletry bags felt and how easily they could be packed into other pieces of luggage.

BÉIS Cosmetic Case : This case is sturdily built with a couple of thoughtful extras like a standing mirror and a separate sleeve for makeup brushes. With its generous capacity comes a larger footprint, which may be problematic in smaller carry-ons or weekenders. Finally, we felt the price was too high for the quality of the materials.

Calpak Clear Cosmetics Case : Another spacious pick, our tester could appreciate the capacity of this bag with its convenient carrying handle, though it needs to be packed full to keep the contents from jostling around wildly. The design and internal organization were OK but not as good as some others.

Dagne Dover Hunter Toiletry Bag : Overall, we liked the Hunter Bag. The soft neoprene exterior felt durable and easy to clean. The interior features a few pockets and two removable zipper pouches, which our tester said they would probably leave out to make better use of the space.

Everlane ReNew Catch-All Case : True to its name, the Catch-All is a roomy yet simple option with both internal and external pockets. It isn't particularly structured, so it would slip nicely into any other bag, but we worry the contents could easily be damaged or crushed.

State Bags Benson Dopp Kit : The Benson Dopp Kit is a hanging bag with a solid capacity and a well-designed interior. Because of its size, this isn't the ideal option for short trips, and we found similar models that just edged out this pick in terms of the quality of materials and design.

Tumi Response Travel Kit : Our testers were hard-pressed to find anything negative about this bag. It features a clamshell opening for easy packing, is roomy but remains a good choice for weekend getaways, and offers enough structure to protect your toiletries. The real downside is the luxury price, which we found hard to swallow.

What to Look For in a Toiletry Bag

Whether you want something you can quickly toss products into or a hyper-organized toiletry bag with ample pocket space is up to you, but it’s important to think about how organized you usually are. Our advice? Look at how your purse or backpack is organized (i.e., is it a massive tote you throw everything into, or is everything organized in its own little pocket or bag?) to figure out how you naturally travel.

TSA Requirements

If you're carrying your luggage on a flight with you, be sure your items meet TSA requirements —one quart-sized bag of containers holding liquids in quantities of no more than 3.4 ounces. If you are checking your luggage, some of the large-capacity bags on this list can come in handy for packing larger liquids. However, rather than putting all your products into a flimsy plastic bag, opt for a reusable zippered bag instead.

Hanging Capability

Sometimes, the hotel you're staying at won't have enough counter space for a toiletry bag, especially if you're traveling with others. If you want to ensure that things don’t get too cluttered, consider a bag that can hang from the towel hooks on the back of the bathroom door. Bonus: You can use it to free up space at home, too.

Because they are frequently in wet and humid surroundings, most toiletry bags are pretty easy to clean thanks to the functional materials used to make them. Simply wipe down the interior, usually made of nylon with a water-resistant coating. Toiletry bags that are made of faux or genuine leather or polyester can be spot-cleaned.

If you plan to fly and take your liquids onboard with you, make sure to follow the TSA requirements, which allow one quart-sized bag of containers up to 3.4 ounces each. While it's not required to have a clear toiletry bag, if your bag is pulled for further inspection, it might speed up the process if the security agent can easily see what you've packed.

To recommend the best toiletry bags out there, we tested 27 items across various brands and price points in our New York City lab space, scoring each on its capacity, durability, portability, and value.

The author of this article,  Nathan Allen , is TripSavvy's Outdoor Gear Editor. He regularly takes toiletry bags on flights, road trips, and backpacking and camping trips. His go-to toiletry bag is the  Cotopaxi Nido  for its functionality, size, durability, and planet-friendliness.

Traveling is fun when done right. By that, we mean when you’ve properly packed all your goods, from clothing down to toiletries, leaving nothing behind. Deciding which travel-sized beauty products are worth bringing on this trek is as tedious as packing them. However, regardless of how many (or little) beauty goods you have in tow, a toiletry bag is a necessary addition to your pre-travel checklist.

Here at ELLE.com, we’re self-professed travel beauty experts and believe a good toiletry bag should tick off a few boxes, from functionality to added features to fabric. Of course, design is essential, too. Ask yourself: Is this bag engineered to house full-sized products? Can you house your brushes and tools separately from the other products? Is it coated in wipe-proof fabric for easy clean-up? Can you lug your entire seven-step skin routine? The right toiletry bag should be able to fit your favorite skincare sets , clarifying shampoos , and must-have makeup products .

How do I choose the best toiletry bag?

kjb

First and foremost, consider how big your collection is and the types of products you’ll be storing. For instance, if you tend to pack light or your routine is somewhat minimal, a small zippered pouch should suffice. On the other hand, if you’re a professional makeup artist or a beauty enthusiast with a sizable collection, you’ll want a larger case with plenty of compartments to hold all your bottles, palettes, brushes, tubes, tools, and more. Look for options with special compartments that hold bottles upright, and consider styles that can hang, as they’re easily accessible and won’t overcrowd a small bathroom counter.

Remember that the larger the toiletry bag, the more room it will occupy inside your luggage. To find a happy medium, look for styles that can store your skincare and makeup essentials while occupying a reasonable space in your suitcase or duffel.

What fabric is best for a toiletry bag?

elle line break

No matter which style you choose, it’s always a good idea to look for options made with durable, easy-to-clean materials like PVC or polyester, so makeup mishaps are a cinch to fix. Also, consider waterproof fabrics to avoid spills leaking through to the rest of the contents in your suitcase (aka, a traveler’s worst nightmare).

Best Travel Toiletry Bag for Women

Table of contents.

Whether you’re a long-term traveler or love your weekend getaways, a reliably great toiletry bag is an essential travel companion that every adventurer needs! This allows you to bring all your favorite products and not have to stress about buying anything at your destination or relying on an Airbnb or a hotel to provide things like shampoo or conditioner.

Stick with me on this video as I break down several travel hanging toiletry bags at once !

Though I wasn’t sure about all the bags in my video, I definitely came out with ones I used over time, and found some new discoveries that I share further down the article!! When it comes to picking the perfect one, we’ve broken down the best features and shared the best styles among various categories.

But first, I want to address some FAQs that we consistently receive about toiletry bags.

toiletry-bags-for-travel

The Bagsmart Hanging Toiletry Bag is #1 for readers due to its numerous water-resistant pockets to keep everything in its place–read more below!

What is a Toiletry Bag?

Toiletry bags are travel pouches designed to hold everything from your toothbrush and toothpaste to shampoo and conditioner to skincare and makeup! These bags will keep all of your toiletries organized and mess-free and allow for easy packing within your suitcase.

Though some travelers opt for plastic baggies or pouches, travel toiletry bags are way more durable, have organizational features, and will keep you so much more organized. You’ll be able to use a quality toiletry bag trip after a trip, too.

Some travelers choose to buy their products at their destination rather than packing them, though that can be quite expensive and isn’t very practical for trips that aren’t long-term. And if you have specific beauty products that you just can’t live without, then it’s definitely worth packing them in a toiletry bag and bringing them along with you!

If you’re worried about the extra space toiletries might take up in your suitcase, we’ve compiled this ultimate guide to downsizing your toiletries so you can save space but still bring the essentials. Take a look at the best travel containers to decant your products into!

toiletry-bags-for-travel

The non-hanging Away Toiletry Bag has many broad compartments to fit everything (more on it further down!)

What is the Best Toiletry Bag for Travel?

Not all toiletry travel bags are created equal, and there are many different styles to choose from depending on your packing style, products, and the trip you’re planning.

If you’re traveling with a carry-on only, you may want to opt for a slimmer option that can pack flat. Flatter toiletry bags allow for more versatility with packing, though the shape and size depend on your packing strategy and the products you’re bringing. Of course, checking a bag gives you a bit more freedom with the size of your toiletry bag, so you may want to look for options that have plenty of organizational features and spacious compartments.

Luggage space aside, one common issue when it comes to toiletry bags is having enough countertop space to store them. If you’re a budget traveler and staying at a hostel or smaller accommodation, or if you’re backpacking or camping, I’ve found that there’s usually very little to no counter space to put your stuff, which is where a womens hanging toiletry bag comes in handy.

If organization is important to you, there are many travel toiletry bag women’s styles that feature pockets and compartments to stay organized. Or, if you prefer to see everything clearly in a single place, you might prefer the simplicity of dopp kits and cosmetic bags for your toiletries.

toiletry-bags-for-travel

The Calpak Terra Hanging Toiletry Bag has tons of features that users love to organize their toiletries (more details below)!

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Toiletry Bag

Each toiletry bag comes with unique designs, materials, and organization. Here’s what to look out for when choosing your ideal womens toiletry bag:

Hook for hanging   – One of the most important features in a toiletry bag that I look for is a hanging handle. That way, the bag will stay nice and dry rather than sitting on a wet counter and is very convenient if countertop space is limited, whether a small hotel, a cruise ship, or a campsite!

Shape – Many toiletry bags tend to be on the bulky side, which is fine for checked luggage, but if you’re traveling with a smaller bag, then look for something flatter and wider rather than tall and bulky. Consider how you pack your suitcase and the available space left over for your toiletry bag when deciding on the right shape.

Size – I’ve found that several toiletry bags on the market are quite big, so if you’re planning on packing your toiletry bag in your carry-on or personal item, you’ll likely want to choose a more slim and packable option. You don’t want your toiletry bag to take up half of your suitcase!

Fabric – The best toiletry travel bag will be water-resistant or won’t absorb water easily, as it’s likely to get wet sitting on the bathroom counter. Interior lining is another great feature, as you’ll be able to wipe away spills easily. Spills and leaks aren’t uncommon when flying, both due to cabin pressure and getting knocked around, so a bag that’s easy to keep clean is vital.

Closures and Pockets – You’ll want your toiletry bag to last a while, so strong closures and sturdy pockets that’ll hold up to being packed full are very important to keep in mind. One factor that I’m very particular about with all of my travel gear is zippers, so always try to look for sturdy, high-quality zippers – you never want to have to deal with broken gear during your trip!

Organization – Many toiletry bags feature extensive interior organization, while others (such as dopp kits and cosmetic bags) offer a spacious interior that allows you to pack it however you want. If you like organization, look for mesh pouches and transparent pockets that’ll allow you to see everything clearly!

Now that the vital questions are answered,  please review this ultimate guide for the best women’s toiletry bag for travel. From hanging to non-hanging to dopp kits, there is guaranteed to be a bag for any purpose or trip!

Best Hanging Toiletry Bag for Women

Hanging toiletry bags are the most popular style among readers, and I myself typically avoid toiletry bags that don’t have a. hook! Hung up rather than sitting on a wet counter, hanging toiletry bags saves space and keeps things tidy and organized.

Best Way to Store Toiletries at Home

Many readers want to know, once I’m done with my trip, how do I store all the containers or products I’ve used? While it makes sense to keep them in your toiletry bag, TFGs also use packing cubes to store and organize items. They’re even great for keeping loose toiletries you may use for family trips or extra makeup during a vacation!

The Compass Rose Packing Cubes are now offered in two sizes: slim and medium. The slim size cubes measure 13 x 5 x 2.8, and the medium size cubes measure 2.8 x 13 x 8.5. Both fit an international carry-on suitcase, and the medium size is great for bulkier things you may want to store.

I love the CALPAK medium clear toiletry bag—it has two sections, one for my makeup and thother for my contact lens solutions, cleansers, larger items. Great size for me!

Cathleen Huckaby

Great list for ALL need & IF ya can believe it, I needed something in-between the Vasco small bag, and the bigger bags shown. I finally found it on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RFLP23L?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title Best of all it’s only 7 oz, has a hook & the bottom waterproof bag can be zipped off. Ahhh the best of both worlds!

Allison Albright

I love my Bagsmart toiletry bag.

Gayle Atwood

Thanks for all of the helpful info! I love this site and often share it with my friends!

Yvonne Cattell

I love the BagSmart toiletry bag. It has room for everything and the hanging hook is so useful when you’re in a small bathroom.

Maureen Lyons

Very helpful information!

Cheryl Capouya

I purchased the Bagsmart hanging bag. Took it on a car trip and it worked great. However, I’m a little confused by the two rows of of elastic loops in the middle section. What am I missing?

Adina Moodie

I love the eBag pack it flat bag. No matter how much toiletries I stuff in this bag it remains flat and fits in my suitcase.

Norma Saenz

I bought the Bagsmart hanging toiletry bag medium size and it was a lifesaver! So easy to find what I needed!

Cris N

Sea to Summit is a great size and very light weight. The fabric adds minimal bulk which is a huge plus for me!

Andromeda Matz

I have an LL Bean cosmetic bag. I think it’s smaller than the one in the article. I also have the Vera Bradley. I struggle with toiletries, and still don’t have it ‘right’.

Sheila Godreau

Thanks for these recommendations! Packing toiletries is still my biggest challenge.

Michelle Otten

My family got me the Bagsmart travel bag for my birthday. I don’t think they even know about this blog, haha!

Mary Cuti

Hi Alex, I absolutely love the hanging toiletry bag. I bought one for me and my husband bought one for him. We love them. We purchased the TRAVELON. Very convenient easy to use and love that it hangs in the in the bathroom great tip. I also purchased the small containers for pills and make up and that has really saved room for other things in that bag. Thank you for the tip.

Tabitha DePaolo

I always struggle to organize my toiletries. Usually I just take them and toss them into a bag and then have to search through everything to find what I want. These sound like just the thing I need to make it both easy to pack and easy to find what I need while on vacation!

Michelle Johnson

Love these suggestions. Great insight!

Marilyn Salzberg

These are great options. I’m pretty good at packing light with clothing but the toiletries are my challenge. I’m looking forward to organizing in one of these.

Lisa

Highly recommend another toiletry bag by Travelon as well as I keep my liquids in a separate clear bag.

Travelon Compact Hanging Toiletry Kit

Been known to see it at TJ Maxx for a great price. Happy hunting!

Elizabeth Runkle

Great topic. I find my travel toiletry necessities change, depending on whether I’m doing an overnight, weekend or or two week trip overseas. It’s nice to have choices and you have some very practical ideas. As well as pretty ones.

Tricia

I have 3 of these but call me Goldilocks, I’m still searching! Someone gifted me the Bagsmart and I never use it – too big for my carry on. I have been using the Bago and it works fine if I don’t put anything in the sides and re-organize once I put liquids back in. Material is stiff so it doesn’t pack down much. It has lasted many years, trips and spills so I keep using it. My teenage kids use the Norway. It’s cheap and won’t last too long but it was compact and functional for a month-long trip.

Rachael Campbell

Thank you for the recommendation for the Travelon Flatout toiletry bag. I took it on a 3 week trip to the UK this past summer, and it was really nice to have a hang up option in the many small bathrooms we found in our AirBnb.

Mary

It looks like this list is now 10 years old. Are these recommendations still valid? You featured this list again today in your blog/email. Thanks for your reply!!

Alex

Hi Mary, yes they are. We update this article regularly!

Joanne Chandler

I love my Lug Trolley when I’m traveling for more than 2 days. It has a place for everything ( even a full size can of mousse). For shorter trips, I use my Bagsmart cosmetic bag.

Thanks for sharing your go-to toiletry bags with us Joanne. Happy travels!

Gabriela Riviello Waters

Happy 10 year anniversary! Looking to replace my 20 year old toiletry bag that finally came apart on my trip last month. Will look in to these options!

Terri

Happy 10th Anniversary! I would like a new toiletry bag and appreciate the advice on this post.

Heather

Happy 10 year Anniversary! 💖

Becky

I appreciate these tips. I have spent money on a couple of different tolietry bags, only to find that they are not very useful or are too bulky. Lately I have been using Ziploc bags for certain items and a packing cube for my hair care items.

Karen Wood

I love how all the categories for traveling carry-on are whittled down for us, complete with reviews, user comments, and tips! I get lost in your website every time I visit… in a GREAT way I mean! One subject, link, idea etc leads to another. I find that if I stick to just shoes for instance.. I’m better off not getting too distracted until I’m satisfied that I know what I want. ha Then on to luggage, capsule packing & cubes, and not to mention all the information on FaceBook that I read. Thank you for all that you do!

Robin Polito

The Gonex Hanging Toiletry Kit was a game changer for my recent safari. Compact, lots of pockets and my quart size bag fit right inside the largest compartment so I could just pull it out to go through security.

Becky

Thank you for this thorough info!

Michelle Gerber

I read every word of this article many times. Finally I bought the Travelon Flat Out Toiletry Bag. I used it for 2 weeks in Europe and 4 weeks in Latin America this summer. I saw every bathroom imaginable. I found it well made and loved the clear pockets. I loved I could lay it flat or fold it. Best was that the hook was a clippable loop. This meant I could hang or hook it in places where a hanger-hook style would not have worked. Thanks for the advice and being as obsessed as I am!

Alex. I love my D&D Hanging toiletry bag. I watched your video on downsizing items in you toiletry bag. Very helpful. I purchased the small containers I I loved them. I even have extra room for a last minute item! Thank you!

Shari

I purchased the BAGSMART and love it. I just bought their cord organizer bag. And, this year for birthday’s I am buying that combo for my daughters. I keep them packed and ready to go and it has made traveling so much easier.

Lisa

I love the hanging bags. I wish I could find a nice clear one for tsa/ carryone.

Erin Laughter

I love my Bagsmart travel bag! Thank you for recommending it.

Charlotte Levi

The best ever were Galante bags. They’d bi-or triple fold; have 7 see-through zip compartments and a big enough hanger for a towel bar or even shower rod. They offered several attractive print fabrics for the outside. And they last many years. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to reach them by phone or email, so I don’t know if they’re still manufacturing. I’m happy to submit a picture if someone wants to create more!

Hi Charlotte, thank you for sharing your recommendation of Galante bags with us, that is such a shame if they have stopped manufacturing them 🙁 Happy travels!

Marlaine

I compared eBags pack it flat and Bagail pack it flat. I found that any bag that folds over itself adds too much bulk. I use the eBags for my toiletries and the Bagail for my cosmetics and brushes.

I like both of these bags. Lightweight, expandable, good organizational pockets and compartments. Since Bagail is quite a bit less expensive I recommend that one over eBags. I could probably get everything into one but like having cosmetics separated from my regular toiletries. I can easily carry both of them in my personal item on the plane.

Hi Marlaine, this is a really helpful comparison, thank you for sharing it with us. Happy travels! ?

Shirley Hill

I do not use a toiletry bag. I use as many 1qt ziplock bags as I need. One for makeup, one for shower stuff, one for tooth care, one for bandaids, one for hair stuff, etc. I label each with a permanent marker and they are see-through, never very full, and really easy to tuck into tiny spaces in your carry-on bag. You can pull them out at a hotel as you need them. I have never gone back to toiletry bags because they are so bulky!

Hi Shirley, thank you for taking the time to share your insight with us! 🙂

Robin English

This is a great idea! I tend to fill up all the space available in any bag, so eliminating the bag all together and just using ziplocks that can fit in random places is genius! Can’t wait to try this on my next trip!

Michelle W

Is there a bag that has a removable TSA regulation pouch? I hate having two bags, one clear for TSA and one with everything else. I’d love to find one that has a snap in or zip in TSA pouch. Anything out there?

Hi Michelle, I am afraid that I do not have any suggestions to share with you 🙁 To get you some ideas, I have gone ahead and scheduled your question on TFG’s FB page, our readers have great recommendations to share, so keep an eye out for their replies from Sunday: https://www.facebook.com/TravelFashionGirl/ Hope this helps!

Rebecca Alexa

I use the Travelon Wet/Dry quart bag (which is not mentioned in this blog post but it was recommended in another article on TFG) and it has gone through TSA checkpoints several times with no issue, even though it is not removable.

Sonia

Hi I have see through zip up “sandwich bag” style bags for my toiletries as, if you are going carry on these are the weightiest items and I put them into my handbag which can be taken out when getting inspected by customs as they can see through to make sure items are only 100mls each.

Joie Mojica Gahum

I’m using roadeavour’s travel toiletry kit! The best thing i had!

Sarah

Hi! Thanks for the article – always good stuff here. One things perplexes me though – I find that any toiletry bag on the market, even on this list – has the “convenience” of a hook for hanging. But, pretty much most of the time I travel there is no where appropriate to hang a bag, and if there is, everything in the bag just pops out due to the weight of the items in the bag as it loses it’s shape. Quite frustrating. I have considered alternative bags, such as fishing tackle bags or electronics accessories, but I wanted to know if you can think other bags that might avoid this problem?

alex

Hi Sarah, we also have a list of the best hanging toiletry bags: https://www.travelfashiongirl.com/best-hanging-toiletry-bag-for-women/

Lola

She said that hanging a bag is inconvenient but you send her to a sight for hanging toiletry bags! I too find this problem. There is no place to hang one, or if there is the place is far from convenient. Also everything falls out of the open compartment. Very frustrated.

Deb

My LL Bean hanging bag does not ever fall forward and things do not tip out. All 3 net pockets zip from left to right. It also has side pockets for taller items which zip separately from the main compartments. I have always found a place to hang it in hotels, air bnbs, cruise ships etc., either at the end of a towel rack, or behind the bathroom door if there’s a hook there, or from the shower rod in a pinch. That way if there’s only a pedestal sink I’m never stuck. I think it’s maybe the way you arrange your items? I can post a photo if it would help? I never even unpack it at home-it hangs on a hook behind the bathroom door so I can easily access it every day, and grab and go for quick packing in a hurry.

Connie

Hi, I’ve had the same problem sometimes, so have started using an old fashioned shower curtain hook as an alternate or additional way to secure the hanging bags. It does keep it from falling over too if you attach it to tha bag’d handle.

Siya

I am also used this types of bags….my bag color is in pink with phulka dot..Its look amazing…

Rhonda

I need something big enough to hold big bottles of shampoo conditioner and lotion any recommendations?

Hi Rhonda, I’d suggest measuring your bottles then checking the dimensions of a toiletry bag to ensure you can find one that fits your items.

gottaride64

so…. nice bags but what do you do with your liquids as you go through TSA? They must be separated into a quart size bag, correct?

Yes they do, read these tips for more info: https://travelfashiongirl.com/3-1-1-liquids-rule/

Liz

I now use 2 separate, small Sea to Summit bags. They are clear plastic on one side so I can see everything. They are opaque nylon on the other side. To keep a neat appearance in my hotel bathroom, I turn the bag over on the bathroom counter and have the fabric side up to hide contents. I don’t want any more clutter in a hotel room or bathroom than is already necessary. One bag is dry toiletries, the other is for liquid. When I go through TSA, I take the liquid one out for them to look at if asked. They are two different colors. This is really working for me.

Great idea!

Ditto! And it works very well!

Lisa J Lucas

Love my Tumi Monaco Travel Kit, it’s a hanging bag with four sections, three with transparent faces so you can see what’s in that section, and one that’s a smaller pouch that’s solid and can be zipped of and used separately. Two of the pouches are a single space, one pouch has dividers, they all zip close. I’ve had product seep and it hasn’t made it beyond the pouch it’s stored in. Spills clean up easily.

alex

Oh great suggestion Lisa! Glad you’ve found something that works so well for you! Happy travels!

Beth

I love my Rick Steves toiletry bag. It is similar to the ebags flat bag, but it was a separate hanging bag that holds 3 travel size toiletry items (shampoo, conditioner, face wash, in my case), and has two loops (razor and pumice stick). I can hang that in the shower for shower use even when there aren’t any shelves there.

My husband has the same bag (in black instead of my yellow) and he also loves it.

He has great products!

aranzza

About your recommendation… I Really like and I would choice the “Rei Grande Shower Kit”, I hope this is practical an easy to packing in a Bagpack Foirpoint 55 L

Guy

Nice article on a subject that doesn’t much coverage. Personally, I love my Christian Dior waterproof toiletry bag. it has lots of pockets, is perfect for my mini perfumes and cosmetics and is slim and classically beautiful. They don’t make them any more but you can find them just by Googling “christian dior waterproof toiletry bag”.

Thanks! I’ll check it out 🙂

Mary

Sea to Summit makes a super light-weight hanging toiletry kit.

thanks for your feedback!

Sara

Thanks for recommending! I’m about to purchase this one based on reviews of some of these others listed and it seems actually small enough but still has capacity.

Maya

I’ve been using my L.L. Bean toiletry bag since I was 18 and swear by it. Europe, Asia and America it has held up and was a convenient design.

Definitely a traveler’s favorite 🙂 Thanks for reading and commenting!

The Best Toiletry Bags

Kaitlyn Wells

By Kaitlyn Wells

After nine years of testing, we know that no one toiletry bag works for all travelers.

To find the best solutions for carrying what is, essentially, a bathroom in a bag, we stuffed, shook, dunked, and examined toiletry bags meant for all sorts of travel scenarios.

After researching 69 and testing 23, we chose five bags that we liked for their style, packability, and quality of construction.

We looked at a variety of zippered sacks, hanging bags, and structured, standing toiletry cases that open from above (what we’re calling “dopp kits”).

We selected picks for a variety of travelers and those using it in their bathroom: a versatile bag for most travel situations , a dopp kit with loads of organizational compartments , an open-style dopp kit with plenty of space for larger toiletries , a compact hanging bag for light packers , and a hanging bag big enough for a family to share .

The research

The most versatile toiletry bag: state bags bensen toiletry kit, best dopp kit for organization: peak design wash pouch, best dopp kit if you need more space: topo designs dopp kit, the lightest toiletry bag: sea to summit hanging toiletry bag (small), the best bag for couples and families: l.l.bean personal organizer toiletry bag (medium), how we picked and tested, what to look forward to, the competition.

Our pick for most versatile toiletry bag, the State Bags Bensen Dopp Kit, shown upright on a bathroom countertop near a sink.

State Bags Bensen Toiletry Kit

The most versatile toiletry bag.

This bag is not, by our definition, a dopp kit, since it opens flat, like a book. Yet it offers organizational options (including a detachable pouch, handy for quick trips) that should work for light and heavy packers alike.

Buying Options

Get this if: You want a bag for both long and short trips.

Why it’s great: Though it’s not the best bag for every type of trip, the State Bags Bensen Toiletry Kit is a good option for more scenarios than any other bag we tested. It’s also a great choice for travelers who need a versatile kit that can hold enough for longer excursions as well as keep smaller, travel-size items organized.

The bag (which is made of nylon, polyster, or cotton, depending on what color you pick) unzips flat like a textbook (7 by 9 by 3 inches) instead of opening at the top, like a traditional brick-shaped dopp kit. So it offers more flexibility to stash larger and wider items, like a full-size shampoo bottle, shaving cream canister, or large makeup palette. It also has a hook, so you can hang it from a towel rack. To keep your gear organized, one side of the toiletry bag has two open pockets, and the other has a mesh zip pocket. When we stuffed the main compartment full of toiletries, the seams didn’t pucker, and it was still easy to zip closed.

There’s also a removable plastic pouch that holds up to four 2.7-ounce travel bottles. When we first tested this bag, in 2019, the plastic pouch was translucent; we loved that you could easily unsnap it for airport security checks without unloading the entire bag. In later versions of the bag, the plastic was too opaque to serve that purpose. But as of 2023, only one of the dozen or so color options (the nylon black/floral) incorporates that opaque plastic. The other options all now come with a translucent pouch.

Our pick for most versatile toiletry bag, the State Bags Bensen Dopp Kit, shown opened and hanging on a bathroom wall.

Flaws but not dealbreakers: This bag is the most expensive of our picks. The Bensen’s plastic hook didn’t break in our tests, but it’s still thinner (by a millimeter or two) than those on most of the hanging bags we reviewed. Under pressure, it bends more easily than most of the other hooks, so we’ll be watching how it holds up during long-term testing.

The detachable plastic pouch isn’t as waterproof as it appears. The pouch’s edges are lined in fabric, which sops up liquids like a sponge before leaking the contents everywhere.

Capacity: State Bags couldn’t tell us the capacity; we estimate it to be 3.5 liters.

Dimensions: 9 by 7 by 3 inches

Colors: about 20 frequently changing options—some solid, some mulit-colored, and some printed with patterns

Peak Design Wash Pouch

Countertop organization.

Minimalist-looking on the outside, this water-resistant dopp kit has lots of specialized pockets inside to hold—and keep safely separate—your essentials. Although it has a hook, it works best sitting on a bathroom counter.

Get this if: You want a water-resistant toiletry case with lots of pockets and you don’t usually need or want to hang your bag.

Why it’s great: The Peak Design Wash Pouch has several organizational pockets for your sundries; it was the most thoughtfully designed dopp-style bag we tested. Most dopp kits have at most one small pocket in addition to their main compartment, but this bag kept our items separated, so that our toothbrush didn’t have to mingle in the same pocket as our razor.

The toiletry bag opens like an accordion, and its wide base keeps it upright even when it’s full. There’s an open compartment on one side of the bag that’s big enough to hold a 12-ounce shampoo bottle or an electric razor. The other side has three mesh pockets great for keeping travel toiletries in their place, as well as a large zip pocket for stashing cotton swabs and facial tissues. Testers were pleasantly surprised to learn the bag is divided in half by a magnetically closed toothbrush pocket; it doesn’t seal completely, though, so moisture can evaporate. On the outside, there’s a pocket for a small beard trimmer or body razor, so you won’t cut yourself on a blade when digging through the main compartment for tweezers. “I love it. The compartments seem thoughtfully conceived,” said Wirecutter’s Winnie Yang. “It could hold enough for all three of us in my family times two.”

The teal grey peak design toiletry bag hung from a shower shelf.

This dopp kit is also tough. It’s made of recycled, 200-denier nylon and coated with durable water repellent (DWR), so it’s light and flexible, and water-resistant too. (There weren’t any leaks in our tests.) It has large zippers and reinforced pull tabs that didn’t snap off when we tugged hard. The internal mesh pockets are coated in silicone, so it’s easier to wipe them clean than dealing with traditional mesh pockets. As a bonus, all pockets turn inside out for cleaning.

The Peak Design Wash Pouch has a lifetime warranty.

Flaws but not dealbreakers: The Peak Design’s hook has a shallower shape than the hooks on our other picks, so it’s more likely to slide off a towel bar when, say, you’re digging for a contacts case at the bottom of the bag. (Peak Design’s arc radius is roughly 200 degrees; the hook on the L.L.Bean Personal Organizer , by contrast, has an arc of 270 degrees.) We preferred to use it like a dopp kit, letting it sit on the counter; that way, it was easy to access all its different compartments without worrying about it slipping and scattering our toiletries.

Capacity: 2.5 liters

Dimensions: 10 by 6 by 4.3 inches

Colors: black, sage green

Topo Designs Dopp Kit

An expansive dopp kit.

This contemporary-looking bag packs down flat but is still roomier when expanded than most of the dopp kits we tested. It does, however, lack pockets and a hook.

Get this if: You’re a heavy packer who doesn’t need a lot of organizational compartments.

Why it’s great: The Topo Designs Dopp Kit is fun to look at. It’s shaped like a prism and comes in solid colors or complementary color combos. It remains upright when full, yet packs completely flat for storage. Its spacious main interior holds oblong toiletries well, including a full-size hair spray canister or electric razor kit. And the structure has some give, so you can stuff the bag into sharp suitcase corners without compromising packing space.

The dopp kit is covered in an abrasion-resistant 1,000-denier nylon that’s textured like canvas and zips closed with a heavy-duty YKK zipper. The inside of the kit is lined in nylon pack cloth for easy cleaning; it doesn’t trap moisture or leak between layers. There’s also a long strap that makes it easier to grip the bag with one hand. And it has a lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects.

Flaws but not dealbreakers: Although the bag’s nylon lining helped trap small leaks, bigger spills may still seep through the bag’s zipper teeth. Like most dopp kits we’ve seen, this one has no hook. Unlike most dopp kits, though, this one has no pockets at all apart from the main compartment. If you prefer a toiletry bag that isn’t a gaping hole, opt for one of our other picks instead.

Capacity: 3 liters

Dimensions: 11 by 5.5 by 5.5 inches

Colors: about a dozen frequently changing solid and multi-colored options

A lime green Sea to Summit Travelling Light Hanging Toiletry Bag sitting on a bathroom counter.

Sea to Summit Hanging Toiletry Bag (small)

A space-saving hanging bag.

This lightweight, well-organized bag fits a week’s worth of travel-size toiletries into a compact package. It’s meant to be hung, which makes it good for tight spaces, but it doesn’t have much in the way of internal structure.

Get this if: You’re a light packer who wants to hang up your bag for easy access.

Why it’s great: The Sea to Summit Hanging Toiletry Bag (small) is our previous top pick, and we still love it. It’s compact, holds enough gear for a week-long trip, and is durable.

Unassuming in size and appearance, the Sea to Summit is small enough to stash in a backpack or laptop bag, but it holds enough travel-size toiletries to keep us supplied for a week. Once you’ve arrived at your destination, you can open it and hang it from a shower curtain or towel rod to easily see and grab your items. It comes with a shatterproof mirror, two micro-mesh zip pockets and an open pocket for toothbrushes, lip balm, and tweezers, and a large compartment for bulky lotions and hair care products.

The sea to summit bag hanging open from a shower shelf.

This toiletry bag is also tougher than it looks. Its ripstop nylon exterior didn’t tear in our tests. And the seams didn’t give when we stuffed it full of travel toiletry bottles, a toothbrush, toothpaste, facial tissues, and more. This bag comes with a lifetime guarantee.

Long-term test notes: Wirecutter’s Shannon Palus traveled with the Sea to Summit toiletry bag for two months, including a trip to Europe and weekend trips, and said she loved it: “I like how small it is, I can easily throw it in a backpack so I have meds and makeup et cetera on the plane too. There are so many random pockets, it’s easy to stash extra hair ties or a back-up $20 and not have them get lost. One complaint: One of the ties on a zipper broke off almost immediately.”

Flaws but not dealbreakers: The Sea to Summit weighs just under 3 ounces, making it lighter than our most-versatile hanging-bag pick, the State Bags Benson Dopp Kit . Its willowy shape becomes lumpy when packed to the brim with travel toiletries, so some people may prefer a bag with more structure.

And though small spills are no match for this bag’s water-resistant exterior, bigger messes may be a problem because moisture leaks through the zipper.

Dimensions: 9 by 6 by 3 inches

Colors: high rise grey, atoll blue, spicy orange

L.L.Bean Personal Organizer Toiletry Bag

A big bag to share.

This bag is inexpensive and sturdily constructed, and it holds enough to supply multiple users.

Get this if: You’re packing for a beach getaway for two or a family trip to a theme park.

Why it’s great: We like the L.L.Bean Personal Organizer Toiletry Bag because it’s big enough to hold a family of four’s bathroom essentials and it’s long-lasting.

With 6 liters of capacity, the medium-size L.L.Bean toiletry bag offers more room than the Peak Design and Topo bags combined. Our testers thought the bag was intimidatingly large for solo travel and preferred its roomy size for excursions with partners or a family. There’s plenty of space for packing full-size bathroom essentials to share among the group. We fit one full-size bottle each of shampoo, conditioner, shaving cream, and hair spray into this bag and still had room to add a hairbrush. And it’s loaded with storage features, so everything has its place. It has a wide handle, three external pockets, two interior waterproof zip pockets, a zip mesh pouch, and three small mesh pockets for taller toiletries, like a hairspray canister or sunscreen. There’s also a hook, removable shower caddy, and a removable mirror.

The sea to summit toiletry bag hanging open from a shower shelf.

The bag is heavy when crammed full, but when we suspended the bag (stuffed with shampoo, toothpaste, hair spray, and more ) by its metal hook for an hour, the hook didn’t break or bend. Its YKK zippers skate across the teeth, making it easy to open and close when full. And the bag’s abrasion-resistant cover didn’t scuff in our drop tests. The L.L.Bean toiletry bag has a one-year warranty.

A close up of the removable shower caddy on the l.l. bean toiletry bag.

Flaws but not dealbreakers: This toiletry bag has two external side pockets for stashing smaller items, like lotions or facial tissues. But they’re too stubby for a regular toothbrush, so if that’s where you want to pack your toothbrush, you’ll need a travel-size one instead.

While moisture from a spill did bead up on the surface of this toiletry bag, it’s not completely waterproof. Major spills are still a problem, as liquids leak through the zipper teeth.

Capacity: 6 liters

Dimensions: 11.5 by 9.75 by 3.5 inches

Colors: about a dozen solid, print, and plaid options

Six different colors and styles of toiletry bags organized in a grid on a tile floor.

After nine years of reviewing toiletry bags, we have a solid foundation in what travelers value in a bag. Still, we approached this guide as first-timers and read dozens of travel blogs, message boards, and bag review guides. We also consulted a panel made up of occasional travelers and frequent fliers to find out what matters to them the most, whether traveling across town or across the continent.

From there, we compiled a list of 69 different toiletry bags and divided them into four categories: plain bags, clear TSA-approved bags, dopp kits, and hanging bags. We reviewed each contender’s design, size, weight, storage capacity, materials, notable features (like a travel shower caddy or extended warranty), availability across retailers, and third-party reviews. We narrowed it down to 23 of the best-reviewed toiletry bags with a mix of features to accommodate different kinds of uses and various tastes in style. Then we called in the bags and tested them using the following criteria:

Overall design and construction: We reviewed each bag’s materials, the quality of the seams, and smoothness of the zippers, as well as the usefulness of each compartment. We also considered the bag’s weight, the sturdiness of its hook (if it had one), and color options, wanting to accommodate a range of tastes.

Bag capacity: We filled each bag with a selection of travel-size or full-size toiletries, depending on the size of the bag. Most bags contained a combination of the following toiletries: a toothbrush, toothpaste, mouthwash, body razor, shaving cream, shampoo, conditioner, hair spray, facial tissues, feminine hygiene products, condoms, cotton swabs, a hairbrush, hairpins and ties, sunscreen, lotion, and a pill bottle.

Shape retention and durability: We closed each bag when stuffed full of gear and noted which bags deformed and if the seams puckered or tore under pressure. If the bag had a hook, we hung it up for at least half a day and checked both the bag and hook for structural integrity.

Contents retention: We shook each bag around and dropped it on the ground to see if the contents spilled out or became rearranged during handling.

Waterproofing: We ran each bag under a kitchen faucet for a few seconds to see how well the exterior repelled water. Then we spilled a tablespoon of water inside each bag, closed it, and shook it to see how easily it would leak a less viscous liquid (like spilled eye-makeup remover or toner).

Community review: We asked a panel of staffers with varying travel needs and family sizes to look at the bags from our list and offer feedback.

We plan to call in and test new toiletry bags from Aer, Eagle Creek, and other companies. We’re also taking a look at a smaller version of one of our picks, Peak Design’s Wash Pouch.

The Matador FlatPak Toiletry Case is the thinnest and lightest bag we tested and folds flat like a sheet of paper when empty. Its roll-top design ensures there’s no wasted space, and it snaps closed with a YKK buckle. But the roll-top unfurled easily during our tests, spilling smaller items, like travel toothpaste, onto the floor.

TSA-approved clear bags

The CableintheBay TSA-Approved Clear Toiletry Bag is made of plastic that’s thinner than other clear bags we tested, so it’s easier to puncture the bag when cramming it into a suitcase. It also leaked during our spill tests.

The Tom Bihn Clear 3D Organizer Cube is made of a ballistic nylon, which is scuff-proof and tear-resistant, and it has YKK zippers, so it’ll outlast most other toiletry bags. But at just 7 by 4 by 2 inches, it’s the smallest bag we tested and barely had enough room for three travel-size toiletries. It’s also twice as expensive as other clear bags.

The Travel Smart by Conair TS78SK Transparent Sundry Bag is the largest bag in this category, at 9.75 by 6.33 by 3.66 inches. A TSA spokesperson recommended that all clear toiletry bags remain under 1 quart (typically 6 by 9 inches), and we don’t want to risk getting detained at the security checkpoint with the wrong-size bag.

The Aer Dopp Kit has narrow dual compartments that were less spacious than our dopp kit pick from Peak Design. Its compartments couldn’t hold bulky pill bottles and shaving cream canisters. And it still leaked despite its water-resistant exterior. (Since our testing, Aer has redesigned the kit—now called the Dopp Kit 2 . We’ll take a look at it soon.)

In previous years, the Eagle Creek Pack-It Specter Quick Trip was our budget pick. It has since been replaced by the Eagle Creek Pack-It Reveal Quick Trip ; we’ll be testing that model soon.

The Herschel Supply Chapter Travel Kit 5L holds more than any other dopp kit we tested, so it’s large enough for a couple to share on an extended getaway. But it isn’t leak-proof, and the bag tips over easily when full of gear.

The KomalC Leather Toiletry Bag is roomy, with enough space for full-size toiletries. But the zippers are clunky, and the bag’s lid is a flap-top design that doesn’t close completely.

The Container Store Toiletry Kit features dual compartments, which aren’t as roomy as other dopp kits we tested. The stitching was poor and unraveled with a quick tug.

The Vetelli Leather Toiletry Bag has wide storage compartments, and it didn’t leak during our tests. But those panelists who would buy a leather bag preferred the real leather of our (now-discontinued) pick from Cuyana over Vetelli’s faux leather bag; those who wanted an easier-to-clean option would have gone with one of our nylon or plastic picks.

Hanging bags

The AmazonBasics Hanging Toiletry Kit doesn’t have as many storage pockets as other bags we tested, and the bag leaked during our moisture tests.

The Freegrace Hanging Toiletry Bag is the largest bag tested, so it holds enough toiletries for a family trip. But its size makes it cumbersome to carry when full. The storage compartments are narrow, so it’s harder to fit bulky or odd-shaped items, like wide-tooth combs or hair gel, inside. The bag also leaked during our tests.

We liked the toughness of the Tom Bihn Deluxe Spiff Kit , with its YKK zippers, ripstop fabric, and reinforced carry handles. There’s also a fold-out shelf covered in Velcro that keeps four 1-ounce jars from falling to the floor. Our testers thought the jars were too small, though, and not worth the additional cost. The bag also leaked during our tests.

What to look for in a travel toiletry bag

Material: When looking for a travel toiletry bag, first think about the material. “A bag that’s easy to clean will last you a long longer,” says New York-based travel journalist Nneya Richards . Richards recommends materials like nylon or neoprene, which are water-resistant. Kim Tate , the Seattle-based travel writer and blogger behind Stuffed Suitcase , prefers options made from vinyl, a material that is durable and more often than not waterproof.

Size and weight: You’ll also want a travel toiletry bag with enough room for the toiletries you’re taking with you. A small toiletry bag will save you space, but if you’re packing larger toiletries or for a longer trip, you may want to opt for a larger kit—keeping in mind that it will take up more room in your bag. Size aside, select something lightweight; many of the options on this list are less than half a pound when empty.

Additional features: Finally, consider the additional features that’ll make traveling easier. For example, a toiletry bag with a hook or handle will allow you to hang it up and maximize counter space, while one with transparent panels can offer a clear view of your essentials for easy access. Some also offer organizational options, like compartments, pockets, or even separate pouches to keep your things in order.

Whatever your preference, there’s something for every type of traveler on this list. Scroll on for the eight best toiletry bags, as recommended by well-traveled experts.

Nomatic Toiletry Bag 2.0

Material: Not specified | Size: 10.5” L x 5” W x 1.7” H (Small) and 10.5” L x 5” W x 3.1” H (Standard) | Weight: 9.5 oz. (Small) and 11.3 oz. (Regular)

Nomatic is a favorite brand of Kesi Irvin , travel writer and owner of the online travel blog Kesi To and Fro , and its toiletry bag has the one thing she typically looks for in a kit—a hanging component. “If I’m moving around from place to place, I like having the option to hang my toiletry bag up so I can see all the products I have,” she shares. The bag boasts a convenient hanging strap to help you save counter space while on your trip and several zippered pockets to neatly store your items. Plus, its narrow profile will allow you to squeeze it into your suitcase without compromising packing space. While the manufacturer doesn’t specify the material of the bag, it’s designed to be water-resistant. It comes in two sizes, and, as an added bonus, a lifetime warranty.

Available colors: 1

  • Water-resistant material
  • Internal zip pockets
  • Lifetime warranty
  • Only one color option

eBags Pack-It-Flat Toiletry Kit

Material: Nylon | Size: 14” L x 9.25” W x 2.2” H | Weight: 10 oz.

Tate has long relied on this toiletry bag on her travels. “It has a very slim profile that won’t take up much luggage space,” she explains. While unassuming in size and appearance, it has spacious internal compartments that can hold enough for shorter or longer excursions—something to which Tate can personally attest. “It has a zipper compartment on the left, where I would keep all my skincare products, a larger zipper compartment in the middle for my deodorant and larger items, and then two zipper compartments on the right to hold my toothpaste and eye-care products,” she says. To add to its functionality, it has a hook and removable pocket mirror.

Available colors: 4

  • Slim profile
  • Spacious internal compartments
  • Can’t stand upright on its own

Dagne Dover Hunter Neoprene Toiletry Bag

Material: Neoprene | Size: 7.5” L x 4” W x 4.5” H (Small) and 9” L x 4.75” W x 5.5” H (Large) | Weight: 5 oz. (Small) and 7 oz. (Large)

I use and love this Dagne Dover toiletry bag. While I’m by no means a travel expert, it’s withstood years of long road trips and international journeys. The bag is made from water-resistant neoprene to contain spills, and it has a sturdy structure and multiple compartments to keep my things from jostling around. Plus, it zips open—and stays open—for easy access. I own the large version, which has enough space for all my beauty and personal-care products, with compartments to keep things like my razor and toothbrush from touching. A bonus: The large version comes with two additional pouches, while the smaller version includes one pouch, and both come in several stylish colors.

If anything, the bag neither has a hook nor a handle to hang it with—and if this is important to you, you might prefer the Seoul Dopp Kit , which has the stamp of approval from Richards. This particular product is made from water-resistant nylon, and it features a swivel hook and multiple storage compartments. You can shop it in two sizes and four colors, including black, gray, green, and pink.

Available colors: 9

  • Multiple interior compartments
  • Comes with additional pouches for storage
  • No hanging component

Queboom Travel Makeup Bag

Material: Not specified | Size: 9” L x 6” W x 3.1”H (Standard) and 9.4” L x 7” W x 5.5” H (Large) | Weight: 5.3 oz.

If you’re looking for something more affordable, this travel-friendly toiletry bag offers some of the convenient features of pricier options at a lower cost. It also comes recommended by Abigail A. of the blog The Lady Who Travels . It’s made from a waterproof material, and it offers a considerable space for your beauty products and a separate compartment for makeup brushes. The kit comes in two sizes: a smaller, more travel-friendly design and a larger model with more storage space, or for a few more dollars, you can purchase it as a set of two. With 12 colors, you’re sure to find an option to match your personal style. The bag folds flat when not in use to conserve space, but it also lacks the structure and compartments of most options on this list—a tradeoff for the price.

Available colors: 12

  • Separate compartment for makeup brushes
  • Folds flat when not in use
  • Minimal organizational compartments

Bagsmart Toiletry Bag

Material: Not specified | Size: 10.2” L x 4.3” W x 6.3” H (Basic), 11.8” L x 7” W x 7” H (Standard), 11.8” L x ” 5.9 x 7” H (Large) | Weight: 5.6 oz. (Basic), 10.2 (Standard), 11.7 oz. (Large)

Another recommendation from A. is this toiletry bag from Bagsmart. It’s made from a water-resistant material, and it comes in three sizes, with the standard- and large-size options boasting a separate compartment with elastic loops to hold smaller or more slender items, such as a toothbrush, razor, or makeup brushes. Each of the three options have interior mesh pockets, along with a large exterior zippered pocket lined with a waterproof layer that is great for breakable and spill-prone products. The bag is well-structured too, with a wide base that keeps it upright and prevents it from tipping over even when full. Shop it in four solid colors, including black, navy blue, pink, and gray.

  • Waterproof exterior pocket
  • Multiple organizational compartments
  • Limited colors

The Daily Edit Black Clear Travel Case

Originally $99, now $50

Material: PVC (with leather trim) | Size: 8.4” L x 3.3” W” x 3.3” H | Weight: Not specified

Travel journalist and TV host Sarah Greaves-Gabbadon of JetSetSarah recommends and uses this pick from The Daily Edit, which meets all her requirements of a good travel toiletry bag: it is transparent to offer a clear view of packed items; it has a zipper that runs all around the three sides of the bag for easy access; and it is durable to withstand repeated usage. “As an added bonus, you can personalize it,” she says, and you can have the letters of your choosing stamped onto the bag. The bag, constructed from PVC, opens up to two roomy compartments, one of which has an elastic strap to secure smaller items in place. The bag is finished with a black leather trim and gold hardware, and though it only comes in one size, Greaves-Gabbadon says is ideal for carry-on travel.

  • Water-resistant construction
  • Offers a clear view of contents
  • Personalizable
  • Only one size and color

Truffle Clarity Jetset Case

Material: PVC (with leather or nylon trim) | Size: 2.5” L x 7.5” W x 2” H (Mini), 5.2” L x 7.5” W x 2” H (Standard), 6” L x 9” W x 2” H (Large), and 6” L x 9” W x 3.” 3.75” H (Jumbo) | Weight: Not specified

Truffle Co.’s toiletry bags come in four sizes, the most of our picks of the list—and they are recommended by Greaves-Gabbadon. Like the previous recommendation, the bag features transparent windows so you can instantly see what’s inside and a zipper that runs around three sides. Plus, the standard option is just the right size for liquids and gels that comply with the TSA 3-1-1 rules . Size aside, you can choose between a leather and nylon trim and several eye-catching colors for each of the available options. The biggest downside to this bag is the lack of compartments to keep items separate and in place, but if you typically pack light, it shouldn’t be much of an issue for you.

Available colors: 8

  • TSA-friendly design
  • Available in four sizes
  • No internal organization

Anya Hindmarch In-Flight Case

Material: Plastic | Size: 3.1” L x 8.4” W x 4.5” H | Weight: Not specified

Anya Hindmarch is known for creating stylish, albeit pricey, storage systems. If money is no object and you’re looking to organize the contents of your carry-on, consider the In-Flight Case, which started Greaves-Gabbadon’s “lust” for travel toiletry bags. The water-resistant bag, made specifically for carry-on use, is fully transparent for easy visibility and features two roomy compartments with zippers that run along the three sides of the bag. According to Greaves-Gabbadon, each section is equivalent in size to a quart-size Ziploc bag to carry 3.4-ounce liquids and gels on board an airplane without risking confiscation by TSA. If you visit the brand’s website, you can also personalize the bag with a phrase or your name—it’ll just cost you a bit extra.

Available colors: 5

  • Water-proof material with waterproof fabric lining
  • Roomy interior

The Best Toiletry Bags For Mess-Free Storage And Travel

More than just a pretty case.

by Molly Wolfe Updated on June 6, 2024

At Luxe Digital, we test and recommend products that we think you will love. If you buy something, we might earn a commission . This supports our team at no extra cost for you.

It may not be the most exhilarating purchase, but we think that the humble toiletry bag may just be one of the most underrated bags of all—whether you’re a member of the Wanderlust club and hardly step foot on home soil, or you don’t need a vacation because you live the life you love already (go you!). 

Call it a cosmetics case, dopp kit, wash bag—or whatever you will—but it could mean the difference between a leaky, clothes-ruined disaster or an arrival that is elegant and poised. 

As for design…

Well, it’s not the most important thing. But personally, we’d rather have a trendy toiletry bag that we’re proud to display rather than one that constantly needs to be stowed away when you hear the doorbell ring. 

Where to find such a functional and fashionable essential?

Kiss your zip-lock bags goodbye—Our carefully curated list of the best women’s toiletry bags has one for every personality and preference. (We also curated a list of the best dopp kits for men ).

16 best toiletry bags for women

Beis the hanging: overall best toiletry bag for women.

best toiletry bags women beis review - Luxe Digital

Our rating:

  • Can be hung or used as a box toiletry bag
  • Easy to clean
  • Convenient grab handle
  • Includes a TSA-compliant clear pouch
  • Transparent and mesh interior pockets to find what you need
  • Hanger doesn’t rotate so the bag doesn’t hang flush against the wall
  • On the heavier side

Our verdict:

Whether hanging against the bathroom door or neatly position on the counter, this versatile, organized, water-resistant toiletry bag is as functional as it is fashionable. 

If we had to own just one toiletry bag, we’d find it impossible to choose between a hanging bag and a box bag. Which is why we’re obsessed with this one by Beis. Owned by actress Shay Mitchell, the cult-favorite brand has a notable Instagram following—and one that it consistently lives up to with its chic, sleek travel accessories. 

As our best toiletry bag for women, the Beis Hanging Cosmetic Case is case (sorry we had to) in point. Featuring a hidden hanger, the stylish boxy silhouette plays double duty as a hanging toiletry bag. While the water-resistant finish protects our cashmere sweaters and slip dresses from accidental travel spills (read: shampoo explosions.)

Regardless of how you position it, the compartmentalized travel case is ultra-organized, with transparent (skim-friendly) pockets, as well as a TSA-compliant clear pouch for gliding through airport security. We use ours for shorter and longer trips and we’re always hugely impressed.

Gucci Jumbo: Best luxury toiletry bag for women

best toiletry bags women gucci review - Luxe Digital

  • Made in Italy from the highest quality leather
  • Stylish, sophisticated and timeless
  • Extra strong zippers
  • Internal stretch pockets
  • It’s expensive

Yes, this glamorous Gucci cosmetics case may seem totally unnecessary, but the high-quality accessory is almost guaranteed to last forever—in fashion and functionality. 

If you’re looking for a designer toiletry bag to luxe up your travel collection, the Gucci Jumbo toiletry case promises to make any average bathroom feel like a five-star hotel. Made in Italy from the brand’s signature monogrammed canvas, the cylinder silhouette oozes sophistication and class. But it’s not just a pretty case. The Gucci toiletry bag is also highly functional. 

The spacious interior features four stretch pockets, perfect for small essentials such as hair ties and lipsticks. The nylon lining is water-resistant and easy to wipe down. The zippers are incredibly strong and robust And we appreciate the grab handle when we’re carrying the Gucci Jumbo to the bathroom or hauling it out of a tightly packed backpack. 

Herschel Chapter: Best value toiletry bag for ladies

best toiletry bags women herschel chapter review - Luxe Digital

  • Ultra-light for its spacious dimensions
  • Water-resistant
  • Internal and external storage sleeves
  • Large carry handle
  • Super affordable for a quality product
  • Fabric marks easily
  • Takes up a lot of counter space

If you’re looking to spend as little as possible without compromising quality, the Herschel Chapter toiletry bag is a no-brainer. 

At Luxe Digital, we’re only interested in quality brands that are designed to last longer. And while we’re usually prepared to pay more for luxury purchases, every now and then we come across an affordable gem, such as this toiletry bag by Herschel. 

The first thing we tested were the zippers (as these are usually the first to go) and were pleasantly surprised at how they held up—even when being tugged and pulled in a child-like manner. We also assessed the brand’s water resistance and are pleased to report that the toiletry bag is impenetrable. 

When it comes to organization and usability, the Herschel Chapter toiletry bag has plenty of pockets on the inside, as well as slips to store your watches and bracelets while you’re in the shower on the outside.

Cuyana Travel Case: Best leather toiletry bag set for women

best toiletry bags women cuyana review - Luxe Digital

  • Sustainably sourced, premium leather
  • Durable zippers
  • Sophisticated and stylish aesthetic
  • Includes two different sized pouches
  • Can be personalized
  • No external pockets

You can always count on Cuyana to elevate basics to iconic stature—that covetable blend of luxe-feeling, timeless style and flawless functionality. If you’re looking for something that is a little more stylish but not impractical, we’re pretty sure you’ll love Cuyana’s elegant travel case set.

After testing most of Cuyana’s best-selling products, we’re unapologetically biased towards the sustainable, minimalist brand. But that also means that we have impossibly high standards for the label. 

Handcrafted in Argentina from sustainable sourced leather, the set of two bags—a small and large—exudes sophistication. And the design is both timeless and practical with impressively strong zippers (coming from the overpackers themselves).

While the leather lining is easy to wipe down, it should be noted that these cases aren’t entirely waterproof. 

When it comes to price, the Cuyana toiletry bag set is on the higher end, but the quality and design definitely justify the cost. Especially since it plays double duty as one of our favorite clutches when not carrying your beauty regime.

Away Travel: Best large toiletry bag for women

best toiletry bags women away review - Luxe Digital

  • Fits an extensive beauty regime
  • Lightweight for its size
  • Structured silhouette doesn’t fall over
  • Exterior zip pocket for grab-and-go items
  • Not as flexible as other less-structured silhouettes

A large toiletry bag isn’t always appropriate for shorter trips. However if you need to pack an extensive beauty regime into one waterproof dopp kit, this super organized spacious travel case is the way to go.

If you’re anything like us and you’re constantly trying to squeeze just one more serum into an already overstuffed toiletry bag, the Away Large is an absolute game-changer. With a thoughtful design that’s quintessential of Away, the classically styled toiletry bag opens wide, so you can quickly access whatever you need, avoiding awkward fumbles. 

It’s palatial in size. The super-organized interior has three main compartments—one for your liquids, one for your dental hygiene kit and one for your razors and hair accessories. 

As one of the most functional dopp kits, the large toiletry bag is made from sustainable, water resistant nylon. And like most products sold by Away, it’s incredibly durable with a lifeline seemingly longer than our own. 

Besides transforming our own travel experiences, the Away Large toiletry bag is also a great gift for almost any woman. Especially if you make most of the brand’s sentimental personalization options. 

Bellroy: Best compact women’s toiletry bag

best toiletry bags women bellroy review - Luxe Digital

  • Compact size is perfect for shorter trips
  • Water resistant lining is easy to clean
  • Separate toothbrush sleeve has a magnetic closure
  • Made from recycled materials
  • Compact size often isn’t big enough for longer trips

From separate toothbrush slips and ample pockets to water-resistant, recycled materials and a 3-year warranty, this cute toiletry bag is all about perfecting the finer details. It’s a big thumbs up from us.

One of the worst toiletry mishaps is to arrive at your destination to find a toothbrush covered in shampoo. That’s just one of the reasons that we’re obsessed with this cute toiletry bag by Bellroy. The brand has thought of everything—from a magnetic closure toothbrush slip to its carry-on compliant compact size. 

Inside the Bellroy toiletry bag , you’ll find a surprisingly spacious, water-resistant interior that easily wipes clean, as well as side pockets for smaller essentials. The addition of grab loops means that you can balance it on one finger while carrying a change of clothes. And we appreciate that the use of recycled materials aligns with the brand’s overall environmentally conscious choices. 

Calpak Kaya: Best clear women’s toiletry travel bag

best toiletry bags women calpak review - Luxe Digital

  • Transparent materials to see what’s inside at a glance
  • TSA compliant
  • Super organized
  • Clam shell opening can also be hung
  • Water resistant
  • Zips don’t feel the most durable

We always love a clear toiletry bag as it’s easy to see if you’ve missed anything without unpacking the whole case, but this transparent accessory takes organization and convenience to a whole new level.

We can see clearly now. As much as we love a fashionable toiletry bag in standout hues, we have to admit that a clear toiletry bag is usually the most convenient choice. Particularly this one by Calpak. While it’s not a hanging toiletry bag per se, the clam shell opening and grab handles mean that you can hang it on your towel hook to save space. And two separate, water-resistant zipped compartments mean that if one of your liquids explodes, your toothbrush and razors remain untouched. 

As one of our best toiletry bags for carry-on, the clear PVC exterior is also TSA compliant (no ziplock bags for you). And while the spacious medium interior is perfect for most occasions, the Calpak Kaya travel case also comes in a small and medium for shorter or longer trips.

Nomatic 2.0: Best women’s toiletry bag for outdoors

best toiletry bags women nomatic review - Luxe Digital

  • Strong zippers are engineered for heavy use
  • Slim profile takes up minimal space and is incredibly lightweight
  • Includes a hidden hanging hook
  • Fully waterproof
  • Not the most stylish option and only comes in gray

Aesthetically, it may be less exciting than others, but when it comes to performance and durability, you won’t find a toiletry bag more suitable for outdoor adventures.

As one of the best toiletry bags for camping and other outdoor excursions, the Nomatic 2.0 is unbelievably light and durable. The waterproof materials are totally impenetrable, regardless of weather conditions. And no matter how you treat them (we tugged and pulled), the robust zippers and seams always hold up. 

Additionally, the lightweight silhouette takes up very little space in a backpack. And the hidden hanging hook means that you can conveniently hang it up in your tent or cabin to save space. 

Which size to choose? When you’re hiking or camping, you usually don’t require your full collection of serums, moisturizers and makeup, in which case we prefer the smaller size. However, if you’re not one to leave anything behind regardless of your destination, the Nomatic Toiletry Bag 2.0 also comes in a larger size. 

BAGSMART: Best hanging toiletry bag for women

best toiletry bags women bagsmart review - Luxe Digital

  • Large capacity
  • Hanging capability
  • Well padded for extra protection
  • Stylish design
  • Super affordable
  • Exterior isn’t the easiest to wipe down
  • Seems aren’t quite as strong

It may not be a brand that you know, but this toiletry bag is surprisingly high quality and maximizes bathroom space by conveniently hanging flush against the door. Plus, it’s super affordable, organized and extra spacious.

While we’re all for prioritizing skincare, an extensive beauty regime comes with its travel challenges. Taking up space in your suitcase and Airbnb bathroom, it usually means leaving something else behind. Unless, you’re packing the BagSmart toiletry bag, in which case, you’re sorted. 

As one of the most popular women’s toiletry bags on Amazon, we were intrigued to see if the affordable accessory lived up to the hype. And it delivered in spades. 

With four main water-resistant compartments and ample pockets (interior and exterior), the fold-up silhouette is unbelievably organized and big enough for all the bathroom essentials (and non-essentials). While the hanging toiletry bag simultaneously maximizes bathroom space. 

We love the BagSmart toiletry bag so much that we use it at home, as well as for longer trips. It’s also affordable enough to invest in two if you’d prefer to keep one for storage and one for travel. 

Horizn Studios Kōenji: Best one compartment toiletry bag for women

best toiletry bags women horizn studios review - Luxe Digital

  • Same material as for bulletproof vests
  • Magnetic pull tag maintains a structured silhouette
  • Spacious main compartment
  • Small zipped pocket for smaller items
  • Carbon neutral shipping and 100% vegan materials

While we love a toiletry bag with compartments for organization, it usually means less packing space. So if you’d rather prioritize space and a compact size, we recommend this extra durable, one-compartment toiletry bag by Horizn Studios.

If you’re packing fewer bigger things, like shampoos and moisturizers, a one-compartment toiletry bag can actually be more useful. As our best one-compartment toiletry bag, the Horizn Studios Kōenji Wash Bag illustrates why. 

With ample room for larger bottles and hairbrushes, the water-resistant interior is incredibly spacious for its size. While the single zipped side slip is the perfect size for a toothbrush or hair ties. 

The Horizn Studios wash bag is also ridiculously durable. Made from ballistic nylon, we use ours all the time, and it’s yet to show any signs of wear or tear. Plus, it comes in eco-friendly packaging and ships carbon neutrally. 

Peak Design: Best women’s toiletry bag with compartments

best toiletry bags women peak design review - Luxe Digital

  • Ultra organized
  • Fits in more than most
  • Structured silhouette remains upright
  • Separate toothbrush slip with magnetic seal
  • Although it has a hook, it doesn’t hang flush against the wall
  • Stitching isn’t the strongest

If organized travel is your main priority, this toiletry bag with compartments is unrivaled when it comes to tidiness. With countless slips and pockets, every item has its designated place. 

If you know us, you’ll know how much we harp on about organized travel accessories. And so it should come as no surprise that we’re totally biased towards this one by Peak Design. 

As our best travel toiletry bag for organized getaways, the wash bag has two main compartments with multiple space-saving, origami-style pockets, all of which are water-resistant and thoughtfully placed. 

While it doesn’t look like much from a glance, we were seriously impressed by just how much could fit inside the toiletry bag. And the accordion-shaped silhouette remained steadfast and upright even when full. 

Our one complaint is that the seams aren’t quite as strong as we expected, but seeing that the Peak Design wash bag is covered by the brand’s lifetime warranty, we’re willing to overlook it. 

Lululemon: Best roll up trendy toiletry bag for women

best toiletry bags women lululemon review - Luxe Digital

  • Lightweight and compact to pack
  • Conveniently hangs from a bathroom hook when unfolded
  • Rrecycled, water-repellent materials
  • Three main compartments including a see-through mesh pocket
  • Doesn’t stand upright when not hanging
  • No grab handle

If you’re looking for a hyper-practical roll-up travel toiletry kit that is also super sleek and stylish, Lululemon’s version is a standout. Just note that the bag doesn’t stand upright, it’s only designed for hanging.

We all know and love Lululemon for its cult-favorite collection of quality activewear . Which is why we were so excited to get our hands on the brand’s trendy toiletry bag. 

How did it perform? Well, it’s not perfect—it’s not as easy to clean and doesn’t have grab handles—but it’s still a standout as our best roll-up toiletry bag for women. The sleek design is compact and maximizes space. While the three water-resistant compartments are all you need to organize the essentials. 

We also love that the Lululemon Travel Toiletry Kit is made from recycled materials. And while it’s engineered with meticulous attention to detail, the quality accessory doesn’t cost the earth.

Cuyana Beauty Case: Best stylish toiletry bag for make-up

best toiletry bags women cuyana beauty case review - Luxe Digital

  • Made from sustainably sourced Italian leather
  • Elastic bands for beauty brushes
  • Removable pouch for smaller essentials
  • Wipeable microsuede interior
  • Timeless, sophisticated and stylish
  • Structured silhouette is heavier and takes up more suitcase space

If you carry around a fair bit of makeup, it’s worth having a toiletry case specifically designed for your various brushes and bottles. With ample storage space, removable pouches and carefully placed elastic bands, the Cuyana Beauty Case ticks all our boxes.

As one of our favorite brands for casual and business casual essentials, Cuyana consistently impresses us with its knack for turning everyday essentials into cult-favorite classics. Living up to its burgeoning reputation, the Cuyana makeup bag kit embodies everything we love about the brand. 

Made from premium Italian leather that is also responsibly sourced and tanned, the elegant silhouette is designed to add a sophisticated edge to your bathroom counter, while considering the planet in the process. The plush microsuede interior is effortless to wipe down. And we particularly love that there is a designated place for every type of brush and bottle—including a removable pouch that can slip into your handbag.

That being said, Cuyana’s Beauty Case isn’t the most affordable option, but it’s a lifetime purchase that you’ll only ever applaud the more you use it. 

Nuori: Best women’s toiletry bag for home and away

best toiletry bags women nuori review - Luxe Digital

  • Set includes a large and small toiletry bag
  • Small case is clear and TSA compliant
  • Vegan leather and comes in sustainable packaging
  • Quality zips and seams
  • Stylish and sophisticated aesthetic
  • No grab handles

Two travel upgrades in one—A multitasking case and a clear travel toiletry bag that’s great for staying home, too. It’s all you need.

Usually, we’d get a larger, more structured toiletry bag for home and a more travel-friendly version for getaways. However, this Nuori two-piece set fulfills both functions. 

As one of our best dopp kits for women, the larger vegan leather has ample space for your capsule beauty regime , including carefully placed elastic bands for brushes. While the smaller skincare travel bag is more compact and carry-on friendly. It’s also completely clear and TSA-compliant so you can glide through airport security without worrying about ziplock bags. 

When it comes to aesthetics, this Nuori two-piece set is a masterclass in modern minimalism. And while it’s designed to organize your skincare, beauty and dental products, it simultaneously acts as a decor item on any bathroom countertop. For us, that’s a noteworthy bonus, especially because we keep ours displayed year-round. 

Dagne Dover The Hunter: Best lightweight toiletry bag for women

best toiletry bags women dagne dover review - Luxe Digital

  • Ultra-light and flexible for packing
  • Soft, water-resistant neoprene protects toiletries
  • Removable mesh pouch for customizable storage options
  • Organized interior includes slips and elastic loops
  • Neoprene may fade if placed in direct sunlight for extended periods
  • Not machine washable as we initially hoped it would be

It’s not fancy but it’s ultra-light, robust, and gets the job done for a much lower price tag. 

Weighing only 0.3 pounds, the Dagne Dover Hunter Toiletry Bag has a barely-there appeal. It easily fits into carry-on luggage without taking up much of your airline weight limitations. And while the silhouette is structured enough to stand on its own, it’s also flexible enough to squeeze into an overstuffed backpack when not fully packed. 

As one of our best dopp kits for women, the neoprene toiletry bag features a removable mesh pouch as well as elasticated slips and sleeves for various brushes and bottles. It should be noted that the neoprene exterior isn’t 100% impenetrable, but it’s water resistant enough to deter liquid spills from infiltrating your suitcase. 

When it comes to size, we opted for the small Hunter Toiletry Bag . And while some women may find it insufficient, we love the compact, lightweight silhouette for everyday gym missions, overnight hikes and other shorter trips. However, if you’d prefer to fit in more, the toiletry bag also comes in large. 

Bonus—Aesop: Best pre-stocked toiletry set

best toiletry bags women aesop review - Luxe Digital

  • Saves the time of looking for each item individually
  • Travel sizes fit perfectly into all of our best toiletry bags
  • Made from quality natural ingredients
  • Missing a few essentials, such as a face cleanser and toothpaste

Saying yes to new adventures at a moment’s notice? Easy with this pre-stocked toiletry bag of matching quality, travel-sized products. Aesop’s Arrival collection is guaranteed to elevate your check-in experience.

Ok, so this one isn’t exactly a toiletry bag, but we think Aesop’s flight-ready travel sets are too good not to share? Our current favorite? The four-piece Arrival set. Featuring a mini (50ml) shampoo, conditioner, cleanser and body balm, it’s exactly what you need to kickstart your vacation with fragrant, natural ingredients. 

Aesop’s travel-sized essentials are guaranteed to fit into your designer toiletry bag—which we’ll assume you’ve already picked off our list. And we love the clean, minimalist aesthetic perched on any bathroom countertop. It may seem like a small detail, but these decadent staples really are an elixir for any weary, jet–lagged traveler. 

Buyer’s guide to choosing the right toiletry bag

While a new toiletry may seem like a relatively straightforward purchase, there is actually quite a bit to consider if you want to find exactly what you need:

Intended use

First consider how often you intend to use your toiletry bag and what for: on the move or home storage?

On the move

If you intend to travel with your toiletry bag—be it longer vacations or everyday gym excursions—you’ll want to look for wash bags that are lighter and maximize space. 

It can also be helpful to think about the type of travel you usually do. If it’s outdoor adventures, you’ll want a wash bag that is water-resistant and compact—after all you likely won’t bag an extensive beauty regime to go camping. On the other hand, if you’re traveling for business or a wedding, you’ll want a bag that fits all the everyday grooming essentials. 

Another important factor is how you intend to transport your toiletry bag. If it’s in a carry-on, a compact transparent, TSA-compliant bag is incredibly useful. And if it’s in a check-in bag, you’ll likely want to prioritize something larger. 

Home: everyday storage

Even if we have shelves and cupboards in our bathrooms at home, most of us prefer to store our cosmetics and skin care products in toiletry bags. If this is what you’re looking for, we recommend a stylish, spacious, structured silhouette that plays double duty as a decor piece on your countertop. 

Compartments and contents

Of course, different toiletry bags are designed to accommodate different contents, so in order to choose the right one, you need to have an idea of what you’re packing inside it. 

If it’s make-up, you’ll want a toiletry bag that has elastic rings for various bottles and brushes. If it’s liquids, water-resistant compartments are essential. If it’s a couple of bigger items, a spacious one-compartment version may be best. And if it’s a bit of everything, look for one with plenty of pockets for many different categories (medicines, electronics, hair products, brushes, skincare, etc). 

You also know how much you intend to fit inside. If your uncompromising beauty regime is pretty extensive, you’ll want a bag that fits every serum and cleanser. However, if you’re a light-packer with many adventures planned, a lightweight, compact version is likely better suited to your lifestyle. 

The question is: flat, hanging or a hybrid? 

Flat, boxy toiletry bags are easier to transport from mirror to mirror as needed and are often better for storage. However, a hanging wash bag is great for maximizing bathroom space and is often lighter to pack.

If you can’t choose between the two, a hybrid version gives us the best of both worlds. Just make sure that it’s structured enough to stand on its own and is flexible enough to hang flush against a wall or door. 

Things we specifically looked for

While all our favorites are made differently, here’s what we prioritized when picking out the best toiletry bags for women: 

  • Easy to clean: a toiletry bag should always be easy to wipe down and bonus points if it’s also machine washable. 
  • Strong zips: as zips are often the first thing to go, we tugged and pulled to ensure this wasn’t the case. 
  • Size and capacity: even if it’s a smaller toiletry bag, it should still maximize its capacity. 
  • Organizational features: we paid attention to how many compartments and pockets each bag had, as well as how strategically they are placed. 
  • Portability and hanging capability: If it’s a travel toiletry bag, it should have grab handles or a hanging hook. 
  • Water resistance: water resistance compartments are super important if you intend to carry liquids. 

Frequently asked questions about toiletry bags for women

The best women’s toiletry bag depends on your lifestyle and beauty needs. Stylish, versatile, and durable, the Beis hanging toiletry bag is our favorite toiletry bag for women, while Gucci is our best luxury toiletry bag. But to select the perfect dopp kit for your needs, check out our curated list of the best toiletry bags for women .

As our overall best toiletry bag for women, Beis’ toiletry bag is considered the most versatile for any situation. The considerate design can be hung against your bathroom door or perched on top of a counter.

A toiletry bag is designed to hold personal hygiene and beauty items such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, and skincare products, focusing on practicality during travel. A cosmetic bag, on the other hand, is intended for makeup and beauty products, emphasizing organization and protection for cosmetics. The bags are different by definition, however, a single wash bag can serve both purposes.

A women’s toiletry bag is often simply referred to as a “toiletry bag”, however it can also be called a “dopp kit” or “wash bag”. In some circumstances, a toiletry bag may be referred to as a “cosmetics bag” or “make up bag”, although strictly, the two serve slightly different purposes.

Toiletry bags should be an essential part of your travel gear as they’ll safely contain the items you need to look and feel your best, wherever you are.

Here’s our guide to some of our favorite toiletry bags for men and women who want to take it all with them and be organized, too!

No matter how light you intend on traveling, there are some personal items that you won’t want to be without.

Think beyond your toothbrush, and remember that as the days away mount, you’ll need to think about shampoos and shower gels, razors and shaving, a good deodorant, and even sunscreen.

In many cases, these are just the basics. Depending on where you’re headed you may also need to consider carrying medication, insect sprays, and other protective essentials with you.

Whatever it is you’re planning on taking with you, your toiletry bag will quickly become an intrinsic part of your travel gear and accessories.

Toiletry bags make packing and unpacking easy, too. Just pull everything out in 1 bag and when you’re ready to leave, chuck it back in — simple! Having everything in 1 place makes a lot of sense, and most toiletry bags will have various compartments to keep things organized.

The other, probably most important reason to use a toiletry bag, is that with so many liquids that could spill, you’ll want to keep them in 1 easy-to-clean place.

From compact and transparent to hanging bags that act as a bathroom cabinet on the move, you’ll soon find the one that works best for you.

Not all toiletry bags are the same, so consider the following before you choose one.

Materials and Durability

Toiletry Bag Material

Your travel toiletry bag will need to be strong enough to withstand a fair few adventures while being flexible enough to bend and fold to fit nicely in your suitcase or kit bag.

Bags made from nylon, synthetic materials, and leather are all very popular, and depending on the quality of the bag you buy, they should be strong enough to last many trips.

Easy to Clean

Toiletry Bag Cleaning

No shampoo bottle is ever truly immune from a little spillage. Because of this, it’s important that your toiletry bag is easy to clean.

Lipstick stains, oily patches, and soapy residue can quickly make your bag look, feel, and smell unpleasant, so be sure that whatever material you choose, it can be wiped down or machine washed anytime you need to.

Toiletry Bag Size

This part of the equation is totally up to you. But, remember, toiletries can be heavy and bulky. With this in mind, the more compact the bag, the less it will weigh.

You should also remember that unless you’re traveling to far-flung, remote destinations, you’ll be able to buy basic toiletries almost anywhere in the world.

Travel-size products and a bag that can store them with room to spare will be just about perfect.

Pockets and Organization

Toiletry Bag Pockets

Pockets are incredibly useful in a toiletry kit. Pockets are useful for storing tiny items that could get lost or things you would like to keep hidden from prying eyes. Medicines, tablets, contraceptive pills, and even condoms are what your toiletry bag’s inner pockets were made for.

If you choose to go for a bag that offers you numerous compartments, use each one for different types of toiletries.

Hanging bags often come with dedicated compartments for each of your bottles or tubes of product, keeping them nicely organized and separated at all times.

Ability To Hang

Toiletry Bag Hanging

Speaking of hanging bags, this is an extra feature that can be very useful depending on where you’re traveling to.

In a five-star hotel, you probably won’t mind leaving your toiletries on the bathroom counter, but in a hostel in the middle of nowhere, you may feel more comfortable with your products neatly hung on the towel bar, bunk bed, or door.

Flight Suitability

Toiletry Bag TSA Compliant

This is important! If you’re planning on flying to your destination, you’ll need to be aware of the rules and regulations pertaining to liquids onboard commercial aircraft. As a basic rule of thumb, you’ll need to remember the 3-1-1 rule.

3-1-1 for carry-on:

  • 3.4 ounce (100 ml) bottle or less (by volume)
  • 1 quart-sized, clear, plastic, zip-top bag
  • 1 bag per passenger

At security, you’ll be required to remove your 3-1-1-compliant clear, zipper bag from your suitcase. All of your liquids must fit into this 1 bag.

There are a wealth of toiletry bags available for the modern-day explorer. Choose well and you’ll only need to choose 1!

What to look for in a toiletry bag, best overall: july vanity cosmetic case.

Vanity Cosmetic Case

  • Why we love it: Toiletries can easily be jostled en route to a destination, whether that’s on an international flight or a walk from the linen closet to the bathroom. July’s Vanity Cosmetic Case rises to the challenge of keeping everything—from bottles to brushes—in place. With enough height to stow bottles upright, it also has side elastics that keep small products secure. Internal and external pockets make it easy to organize products into tidy collections, and a removable pouch can be carried onto the plane. Finally, a sturdy leather top handle makes for easy portability.
  • Dimensions: 9.84 x 6.30 x 7.87 inches

Best Two-Pack: Cuyana Travel Case Set

Travel Case Set

  • Why we love it: Two are better than one when it comes to storage options. This duo from Cuyana pairs a small, pebbled leather bag with a larger counterpart. This makes it easy to separate products by size; or, should you wish, to use the smaller bag in your carry-on suitcase while stowing the larger one in checked baggage. The leather lining is easy to clean—any wet washcloth will whisk away any trace of a makeup mishap—and the exterior Argentinian leather is available in 16 tempting shades. Colors range from a demure blush (a bestseller) to a chili-pepper red.
  • Dimensions: Large bag 7 x 12 x 3.5 inches; small bag 5 x 8 x 2.5 inches

Best for Your Purse: Everlane The ReNew Transit Catch-All Case

Image may contain: Cushion, Home Decor, Accessories, Bag, Handbag, and Furniture

The ReNew Transit Catch-All Case

  • Why we love it: Made from 100% recycled polyester, Everlane’s case has a collapsible structure. This makes it adaptable to different types of getaways: If it’s a beach weekend where only SPF is required, collapse the case to make room for more bikinis. Or, if you’re headed to a destination wedding that mandates a full face of glam, take advantage of the case’s six pockets to arrive fully stocked. It’s also easy to stow in your purse, for touch-ups on the go.
  • Dimensions: Folded: 9 x 4.5 x 4.5 inches; unfolded: 11 x 9 x 6.5 inches

Best for Makeup: Béis The Cosmetics Case

Image may contain: Bag, Accessories, Handbag, and Briefcase

The Cosmetics Case

  • Why we love it: Traveling with makeup in tow makes the occasional foundation leak or eyeshadow crumble all but inevitable. Luckily, this minimalist travel case was designed to take the sting out of spills. With faux leather on the outside and PVC material on the inside, it’s easy to wipe clean. Plus, special features—including hidden magnets that hold multiple makeup brushes and a portable mirror with a prop-up stand—allow one to travel like a true makeup artiste.
  • Dimensions: 9.5 x 7.5 x 4 inches

Best Clear: Calpak Large Clear Cosmetics Case

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, Handbag, and Purse

Large Clear Cosmetics Case

  • Why we love it: Whether you’re looking for your favorite blush on a European vacation or choosing a lipgloss before work in the morning, a clear cosmetics case makes it easy to see what you’re working with. Calpak’s see-through case not only comes through with visibility. It also has two separate, roomy storage containers that make it simple to stash lots of products. What’s more, two top handles make the bag easy to whisk around, and a zippered interior pocket serves as a convenient catch-all for small items like tweezers and single eyeshadows.
  • Dimensions: 11.5 x 5.25 x 9 inches

Best Hanging: Away The Hanging Toiletry Bag

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, Handbag, and Baggage

The Hanging Toiletry Bag

  • Why we love it: Rather than rifling through your toiletry bag, why not hang it up so that all its contents can be readily displayed? With a hook made for hanging on a wall or a door, Away’s Hanging Toiletry Bag has three mesh pouches for easy—and ample—storage. Water-resistant and easy to clean, it also has a detachable clear pouch, which can stow travel-sized liquid items.
  • Dimensions: 9.6 x 3.74 x 6.6 inches

Best Compact: Dagne Dover Mila Toiletry Organizer

DAGNE DOVER

  • Why we love it: Made of recycled polyester, the eco-friendly bag has a compact, circular structure that takes up minimal space in luggage. Its upright design makes it handy for storing liquid sans spills, and it has six adjustable compartments to keep the products snug. A triangular metal clip keeps odds and ends—such as hair ties— neatly in place, while a removable mesh pouch can be stored in one’s purse for touch-ups on the go.
  • Dimensions: 5.5 x 5.5 x 5.5 inches

Best Upright: The Container Store Parallelle Traveler Bag

  • Why we love it: Traveling with tubes, brushes, and bottles that are better stored upright? This sleek bag has a unique design that keeps products standing tall. Simply unzip its top and the sides fold down, revealing compartments, pouches, and adjustable dividers that keep items organized. A reinforced base adds to the upright integrity, letting the bag stand free without toppling over.

  • Why we love it: When you need to take your core product collection on the road—and are leaving the extra brushes and slew of color options at home— Rains’ compact bag lends itself to traveling light. The small pouch has one compartment, which can handily store the staples of an everyday makeup or skincare regime. Designed for ultimate durability, the 100% polyester bag is also waterproof, and has a carry handle for easy portability.
  • Dimensions: 5.1 x 8.3 x 4.3 inches

Best for a Carry-On: Telena Makeup Bag

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, Handbag, and Purse

  • Why we love it: If you’re looking for a makeup bag to carry on board, “Consider Telena’s zippered pouch,” Vogue beauty shopping writer Kiana Murden suggests . “[It’s] wide enough to fit all your cosmetics, yet still compact to pop in your purse or personal item for easy access.” The water-resistant, large-capacity bag keeps items organized, too—it has interior pockets for color cosmetics, a zippered pouch that’s long enough for brushes, and plenty of room for travel-sized skincare.
  • Dimensions: 4.72 x 4.72 x 9.84 inches

Best Monogrammed: Paravel See-All Vanity Case

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, Handbag, and Pencil Box

See-All Vanity Case

  • Why we love it: For a makeup bag with a personal touch, Paravel’s vanity case can be customized with hand-painted monograms. Available in 14 hues, the letters can be further embellished with foil accents or handmade emojis. Deck out the case with everything from a cute bumblebee to a classic red heart—whichever design you choose, the transparent case will make it easy to see and stow travel essentials.
  • Dimensions: 5.5 x 3.75 x 8.5 inches

Best for Makeup Brushes: Kusshi Vacationer Leather Makeup Brush Organizer

Image may contain: Firearm, Weapon, and Cutlery

Vacationer Leather Makeup Brush Organizer

  • Why we love it: For the makeup brush aficionado, Kusshi’s leather organizer stows all the necessary tools for a dramatic contour, a fluffy swirl of blush, or any other makeup look. (Or for fresh breath—there’s also a spot for a toothbrush.) With a removable liner that’s machine-washable, the spacious organizer has 11 pockets and typically holds some 30 products. What’s more, it protects products’ cleanliness while on the go: The organizer is not only resistant to water and stains; it’s also antimicrobial and anti-mold.
  • Dimensions: 7 x 13.5 x 5.75 inches

Best Splurge: Westman Atelier

Image may contain: Accessories, Bag, and Handbag

x Westman Atelier train case

  • Why we love it: When cult makeup artist Gucci Westman partnered with Métier to design her “dream” travel case, she emphasized luxurious detailing—without compromising practicality. The latest Westman Atelier carryall is handmade in Italy from a water-resistant fabric in a navy jacquard (and lined with a stain- and water-resistant material, too). The heat-sealed base easily wipes clean with a damp cloth, and the brass zipper has a silky smooth glide. Naturally, Westman designed the storage through the eye of a true makeup lover, adding six compartments, a spacious zippered pouch, and a main body that can hold skincare, perfume, supplements, and more.
  • Dimensions: 8.5 x 7.25 x 3.5 inches

Like choosing a hotel or Airbnb for your next getaway, your products’ temporary home should be thoughtfully considered, too. While a beautifully-designed case lends undeniable appeal to a hotel vanity or even a workspace, keep these practical considerations in mind as well:

  • Material: The best toiletry bags should be made of a durable material that can stand up to being overstuffed—and be easily wiped clean in the case of spills or smudges. For instance, Westman Atelier’s sumptuous train case is lined with double-faced performance fabric inspired by 1960s beach umbrellas, while Rains’s waterproof Wash Bag is crafted from durable, 100% polyester. If quick visibility is what you’re after, consider a clear case: Calpak’s see-through bag , made of polyurethane and PVC, is a roomy option that can hold everything from skincare to passports and sleep masks for easy access.
  • Size: The best toiletry bag for you will handily stow however many products you need on the go—whether that’s just the basics for an easy, everyday makeup routine, or brushes, bottles, and palettes that will leave full glam on hand. For the former, Dagne Dover’s Mila Toiletry Organizer has a compact, circular design that’s easy to tuck into luggage or use as a carry-on; it measures 5.5 x 5.5 x 5.5 inches. Meanwhile, Everlane’s cleverly collapsible case measures 9 x 4.5 x 4.5 inches when it’s folded; unfolded:, it expands to 11 x 9 x 6.5 inches. Keep height in mind, too: If you want to store bottles and liquids upright, or are packing longer brushes, consider an upright option like The Container Store’s Parraelle Traveller Bag , which is 7 inches high.
  • Portability : The best toiletry bags are also easy to tote around. While selecting the right bag for your jaunt, consider packing a bag that can be easily carried (or flown!) around while keeping products safely in place, such as July’s Vanity Cosmetic Case . If it’s not being stowed in a tote or suitcase, you’ll want it to have a practical carrying handle, such as the Béis The Cosmetics Case , or a roomy base to rest atop a carry-on.

A toiletry kit acts as a portable bathroom cabinet for your essential toiletries – shampoo, soap, deodorant, dental care, etc.

In many cases, these are just the basics, and you may also need to carry and organize your sunscreen, repellent, medication, and more.

We’ve likely all been there: the moment after you realize your travel toiletries have exploded in your suitcase… Well, a toiletry kit is your solution. A travel toiletry bag will help you organize all of your liquids and minimize exploding suitcase scenarios.

Organization is absolutely essential when you are living out of a suitcase. From compact to large toiletry bags to hanging travel bags, you’ll soon find the one that works best for you.

Not all toiletry bags are considered equal. We’ve done the work for you by compiling our favorite travel toiletry bags for this list, but there are different bags for different travel styles and uses. Consider the following before you buy one.

Materials and Durability

Your travel bathroom bag should be the right balance between durable and flexible. You want it to be able to fold into your backpack or suitcase while still withstanding any travel abuse. If you’re looking for the best camping toiletry bag for example, you’ll want something super rugged.

Many travel kits are made from nylon and synthetic materials, and some from leather. I suggest looking for a toiletry bag with water-resistant or waterproof materials. Also, look at the sturdiness of zippers and internal/external pockets. You should always ask yourself, how long will this bag last? The same is true for travel bags , sleeping bags , and beyond!

We checked all of these bags’ materials, the quality of the seams, and zippers too. Not all of the zippers were up to perfect standards – all reviews have noted if that is the case – but they were either more affordable or lightweight because of it.

Size and Capacity

Size is a matter of preference, but I suggest traveling as compact as possible. You should also keep your travel toiletries to a minimum; they can be heavy and take up a lot of space.

That said, you want a bag that can carry all that you need: travel-sized toiletries, a toothbrush, toothpaste, a razor, shampoo, conditioner, tissues, feminine hygiene products, condoms, cotton swabs, a hairbrush, hairpins and ties, sunscreen, etc. It definitely adds up quick! Try looking for a lightweight toiletry bag if you want to keep weight to a minimum.

Pockets and Organization

Getting a toiletry bag with organizational dividers and internal pockets will help you keep your things organized. Generally though, the more bells and whistles, the more expensive the bag. If you don’t need anything super high tech, then there is no need to fork out the extra money, but having at least a couple of pockets will make your life easier.

Ability to Hang

This is the main feature I would look for in a toiletry bag. Hanging toiletry bags are especially useful in hostels and pubic bathrooms, where you can keep your products hung neatly from your bunk bed or shower.

Easy to Clean

Since you are storing liquids, the occasional spill or leak is inevitable. You want a toiletry bag that can be easily wiped down or washed.

Below are my top picks for toiletry bags. Each one has a short review that explains its pros, cons, and best features.

best large travel toiletry bag women's

REI is one of America’s biggest and most-loved outdoor gear retailers.

Now, for just $30, get a lifetime membership that entitles you to 10% OFF on most items, access to their trade-in scheme and discount rentals .

best large travel toiletry bag women's

Lets’ get the bad news out of the way, this bag not available in Europe so if you are reading this in Europe, scroll on.

Not all toiletry bags were created equal. This clean and durable offering from Nomatic sets the high standard, being made from a water and stain resistant fibre which gives it years of extra life and usability when compared to inferior products.

The bag is beautifully compartmentalised so there is a place for everything and you can keep your paracetamol separate for your shampoo. The external toothbrush pocket is also a great innovation which allows quick access and also keeps it separate meaning it won’t drip onto everything else when wet.

You can easily find toiletry bags on Amazon for a fraction of the price of this but believe me, if you buy cheap you buy twice (or more). We wholly recommend investing in the Nomatic Toiletry Bag 2.0 which will last you for and miles years of travel.

  • Water and stain resistant
  • Lovely compartments
  • The toothbrush pocket is a huge win
  • Not available in Europe
  • Not exactly cheap
  • Doesn’t roll up

Is the Nomatic Toiletry Bag 2.00 For Me?

There isn’t much wrong with this bag, to be honest. The only drawbacks are that it’s perhaps not as stylish as the RER one (below) and of course, if you are reading this in Europe no the Nomatic is not for you!

Our team really loved this toiletry bag and feel it offers pretty much everything you could want from this kind of gear and more. They loved the different sized pockets on each side of the bag and how well it kept their gear organised and separated when needed. The addition of the water-resistant zippers and material also was a standout feature for keeping their wet stuff away from the rest of their gear.

REI Co-op Shower Roll

best large travel toiletry bag women's

REI has been coming out with awesome products over the last few years, often at a lower cost than many of the famous brands they carry in-store. If you are just looking for an overall great travel toiletry bag, then their Shower Roll is an EXCELLENT choice!

This toiletry kit has a large mesh pocket and small stash pocket to organize your toiletries as well as a removable pocket at the bottom with a clear window. Having a detachable clear pouch is perfect for TSA checks or any of those moments where you don’t want to take your entire toiletry kit into the bathroom.

The webbing strap that wraps around the bag doubles as a hanging strap too. I am also a fan of the detachable mirror as were the rest of the team. They loved that the bag had a simple design that could easily just be rolled out for easy access to their gear whilst being pretty compact when needed. They also loved all the different pockets and sections each designed to carry different bits of gear which kept everything easily organised.

  • Made of light, durable ripstop nylon
  • Detachable clear pouch
  • Detachable mirror
  • Comes in both small and large sizes
  • Not cheap, though not overly expensive
  • Marked as small, but not that small

Is the REI CO-OP Shower Roll for me?

Overall, this is a smartly designed and functional product that helps you organize your items. We give REI an A for material quality, sturdiness, and convenience and yet simplicity.

TropicFeel Hanging Toiletry Bag.

The Tropicfeel FidLock Toiletry bag is designed to attach to the front of their awesome, pioneering Shell Backpack saving space inside the pack.

However, if you don’t have the Shell Backpack then the FidLock still works as a standalone toiletry bag which will of course fit inside any backpack you want to chuck it into. And a perfectly worthy toiletry bag it is too, with dimensions coming in at 16cm x 21cm x5.2cm it is designed to be the optimal size for your toiletries. It offers Easy open access with a double zipper. Includes a mesh zippered top compartment and open mesh compartment. 

It’s both water and leak proof and the hanging hook feels pretty strong and sturdy to us.

  • Perfect size
  • Ideal for using with the Shell backpack
  • Very well made
  • Not big enough for sum
  • Not as durable as some

Kodiak Leather Toiletry Bag

Kodiak Toiletry Bag

In case you need a toiletry bag that is a little bit special, then go for this handsome leather toiletry bag by Kodiak. The single biggest problem you face with most toiletry bags is that after a while, the daily exposure to shower steam, water splashes and stray toothpaste splodges take their toll and wear the bag to bits. Not with this one though, its made from robust, single grade water proof leather which will last pretty much forever.

Most toiletry bags on this list are functional but this one, is seriously stylish and rather masculine. Its a very simply design, using 1 main compartment with one zip pocket on interior side wall made from heavy duty nylon liner.

Its available in both walnut brown and light brown and makes a great gift to yourself.

The team loved this for those wanting something a bit fancier and higher-end than your standard bag. They felt it was especially useful for people who might need to carry their kit in a professional setting. They also loved the feel of the material and how durable it was, especially as it ages.

  • Made of quality leather that will last forever
  • Simple design
  • A thing of beauty
  • Does not hang

best wash bag peak design

This is one of my favorite travel toiletry bags due to its organization and water-resistant material and also the fact it comes from one of my favourite tra vel brands, Peak Design .

It has a ton of pockets and thoughtfully designed dividers. The main internal compartment is divided into two, and it’s big enough to hold a 12-ounce bottle or electric razor.

There is a magnetically-closed toothbrush pocket in the middle of the bag, so your toothbrush doesn’t have to mingle with your other liquids. On the outside, there’s a razor pocket where I keep my blade, tweezers, and other small tools.

I also like this Dopp kit because it’s made out of tough, recycled 200-denier nylon. It’s light, flexible, and durable. The main drawback is that this bag does NOT hang, however.

The internal mesh pockets are coated in silicone, so they are easier to wipe clean than traditional mesh pockets. As a bonus, all pockets turn inside out for cleaning.

While not specifically a ladies toiletry bag, it is one of the most thoughtfully designed bags in terms of organization, so it works well for make-up and other items.

Our team really loved how well thought out the organisational features of this bag were and especially loved how easy it was to separate different items from each other whilst keeping them all accessible. They felt it also offered an impressive amount of storage for such a compact bag and on top of that they felt the outer material and burly zip were great for long-term use.

Check out our full review of  Peak Design’s travel backpack , which this wash bag was designed to accompany!

  • Made of light, durable, water-resistant material
  • Great for organization
  • Thoughtful design

Is the Peak Design Wash Bag for me?

Get this if you want a water-resistant toiletry case with lots of pockets and thoughtful ways to organize your things. It doesn’t hang, so buy this if you don’t usually need or want to hang your bag.

Generation Nomad Backpacker Toilet Kit Bag

tbbteam-gear-toiletry-generation-nomad

Generation Nomad may have custom-designed the ideal toiletry bag for backpack travellers! Unlike typical travel dopp bags, this new to market toiletry bag is tailored for those who don’t carry bulky bathroom appliances like electric shavers and hair dryers.

Coming in at $35 its amongst the cheapest on this list and while yes you could find at Wallmart or on Amazon for $20 I strongly advise against this and must insist that this is THE entry level bag.

In terms of criticisms, its not going to be big enough for every one, isn’t made the water and splash proof material like others and doesn’t have the same high spec feel as pricier options but thats the point innit?

  • Built for light packers
  • 3 useful sections
  • Bargain price
  • Too small for some
  • Cheaper materials than others

Gravel Explorer PLUS Toiletry Bag

The Explorer PLUS from Gravel is a toiletry bag with a difference. Made from high quality, waterproof, washable nylon and coming with a lifetime guarantee, once you invest in the Gravel Explorer PLUS you may never need to buy another toiletry bag again.

The Explorer PLUS is designed forensically well and internally has 8 different pockets so everything has its place from razors to, shampoo to condoms. Perhaps best of all, as its pocket is sealed and water proof you don’t need to worry too much about those unwelcome mid-air shaving foam explosions ruining the whole bag.

Finally, this highly organised, wipeable and washable travel toiletry bag also comes with an adjustable strap so you can hang it up wherever you go. Oh, and it even comes with a couple of re-usable, travel sized plastic bottles for putting your liquids into PLUS a bamboo toothbrush!!!

  • High quality materials
  • Shampoo spill proof
  • Ace Organization
  • Too organised for some
  • Quite heavy

best large travel toiletry bag women's

The Portage Toiletry kit is a great choice if you tend to pack a lot of bottles. It sits flat and has a large space in the center section for bottles, with mesh pockets to hold your travel toiletries in place.

The bag opens in a U shape and has a few elastic bands to store your razor and make-up brushes. Zippers and zipper pull work well. Has a removable hanger hook, which is very useful.

The Portage toiletry kit comes in 3 different sizes too. Because this is a large toiletry bag, it’s more appropriate road trips versus flying, when you have to be cognizant of travel-sized toiletries.

Our team loved that there was an option out there for those of them who needed to bring bigger items like specific shampoos or lotions. The fact that the bag also facilitates being stood upright was also a massive bonus alongside the zip that allows the bag to be fully opened up from the front.

  • U Shape Opening
  • Organization
  • Not good for air travel
  • Elastic top mesh pockets are low

Is the EBAGS Portage Toiletry Bag for me?

The interior has plenty of room and has a place for just about all of your toiletries. This is a great bag if you are traveling with a lot of cosmetics or carrying things for your family, but not for air travel.

best toiletry bag for men

This (synthetic) leather, the vintage-styled bag is perfect for storing your travel toiletries! The main compartment works well for shaving accessories and basic bathroom supplies.

The bottom section reveals two mesh compartments for your smaller things and has a waterproof bottom to keep your things protected.

Overall, it’s a nice and stylish bag that’s quite functional as well. It’s not genuine leather, so keep this in mind.

Our team loved the stylish and minimalist exterior of this bag which inside hides a surprising amount of organisational features. In particular, they found the bottom zippered section actually holds a lot more than they first imagined.

  • Nice vintage design
  • Good organization
  • Zippers are not great
  • Synthetic leather

Is the Vetelli Leather Toiletry Bag for me?

The interior has plenty of room, with one large clear vinyl pocket with a zipper at the top, and a place for just about all of your travel toiletries – from make-up brushes to toothpaste. This is a great bag if you are traveling with a lot of cosmetics or carrying things for your family.

Sea To Summit Toiletry Bag

When it comes to lightweight backpacking gear, no one can beat Sea to Summit. They make the lightest sleeping pads, tents, and beyond!

This toiletry pouch is no different. If you are looking for the lightest hanging travel toiletry bag and travel organizer on the market, then this is the bag for you! It’s crafted with strong and water-resistant Ultra-Sil fabric.

It includes multiple, thoughtfully placed mesh pockets and durable zippers to open and close the bag. To keep the weight down, they’ve kept this bag simple yet functional. Oh, and it even has a mirror built in!!

I bloody love this lightweight toiletry kit that and it has become my go to. It has a number of different pockets and sections which once hung up are in super useful positions for easy access. It still feels super strong considering how lightweight the material it’s made from is.

  • Super lightweight
  • Plenty of pockets
  • Has a hanger
  • Zipper catches often
  • Doesn’t stand alone well

Is the Sea to Summit Lightweight Toiletry Bag for me?

The Sea to Summit small Travelling Light Hanging Toiletry Bag has multiple internal pockets for personalized organizing. The hanging design is extremely convenient to use too. Overall, it’s a good size with plenty of features; most of all, it’s the lightest toiletry bag you’ll find!

rugged toiletry bag

Not only is this a rugged and durable kit, but it’s also a great travel kit for men (though as a girl I’m also a fan!). This bad boy is bomber built to handle abrasions with a hardy leather handle and heavy-duty waxed canvas, making it a great camping toiletry bag.

They also use 100% natural wool for their felt (no chemicals!) While this is a travel toiletry kit, it’s hardy enough to use for tools, bike repair tools, or an artist field bag. It’s a versatile bag!

  • Excellent Craftmanship and style
  • Doesn’t’ hang
  • Heavier than other bags on this list

Is the Fat Felt Dopp Kit for me?

The quality of this Dopp Kit is amazing. A high-quality canvas, durable and snag-proof design, a hardy zipper, and more will keep your travel toiletries protected!

Our team felt this was their best toiletry bag for camping due to the rugged nature of the materials and construction of the bag. The inside does feature a small zippered pocket but the team kinda loved the simplicity of this burly bag where you just throw in your essentials and off you go!

best large travel toiletry bag women's

Now, you  could spend a fat chunk of $$$ on the WRONG present for someone. Wrong size hiking boots, wrong fit backpack, wrong shape sleeping bag… As any adventurer will tell you, gear is a personal choice.

So give the adventurer in your life the gift of convenience: buy them an REI Co-op gift card!  REI is The Broke Backpacker’s retailer of choice for ALL things outdoors, and an REI gift card is the perfect present you can buy from them. And then you won’t have to keep the receipt. 😉

There is no perfect or exact science when it comes to testing out travel and outdoor gear. That said, the team here at The Broke Backpacker do have a LOT of experience so we’ve gotten pretty good when it comes to judging gear.

Whenever we test a piece of gear, at least one team member takes it out for a spin to put it through its paces. We firstly see how well it fulfils its primary purpose, so when it came to a backpacking toiletry bag, that was things like how compact and light it was, how much it held and what additional features it had. We also were sure to test out how well-made each piece of gear was as well as how packable.

Finally, we also take into account how item costs – so when it came to expensive items, if they performed averagely they lost points, whereas budget items may be given more leeway and minor failures treated more less harshly.

Still have some questions? No problem! We’ve listed and answered the most commonly asked questions below. Here’s what people usually want to know:

What does a good toiletry bag need?

Organisation and good material are essential for a quality toiletry bag. The best organisation of your things offers the Peak Design Wash Bag , with plenty of little compartments.

Which are the best toiletry bags for travel?

13 Best Toiletry Bags For Women

Choosing a toiletry bag is like choosing any other bags or luggage. It’s important and should cater each one’s needs and preferences, especially when it comes to traveling. We understand that ladies need more organizing. So, you’re probably looking for more space, not just for your toiletries, but also makeups and toolkits. That’s why we come up with a special list of the best toiletry bags for women!

How To Choose The Best Toiletry Bags For Women

Just like your favorite dress and hairstyle, one’s favorite may not be the best option for you. You can also buy different toiletry bags for different days and travel plans. It’s always good to mix and match! If you prefer a more neutral style, check our list of the best toiletry bags for travel instead. Before you make any decisions, here are the things you need to consider besides look and style:

Carry-On or Check Bag

Most of us need toiletry bags to store items for traveling. It’s not just about the size and how many items you’re planning to carry, but also about matching your travel needs. There are many types and sizes of toiletry bags out there, ranging from one to ten liters (or even more!). Smaller sizes are perfect for carry-on luggage. They don’t take a lot of space, and they are mostly TSA-approved. But if those cannot fit all of your stuff, you might need bigger bags. But keep in mind that these are more suitable for check bag. Unlike the zipperless luggage , TSA-approved toiletry bag is not about the lock, but the 3-1-1 rule. Only one 1-quart (a little less than 1 liter) size bag is allowed per carry-on. If your toiletry bag is bigger than that, please put it in your check bag. The last thing you want to do is reorganizing your toiletries during airport security check!

Sturdy Material vs. Flexibility

Tougher material and design make sturdier bags, while lightweight materials are usually flimsier. But it’s not really a bad thing. “Flimsy” bags are designed for more flexibility in packing, especially if it’s just for a short family trip. But don’t complain when you find them not standing upright as a counter top item. If you prefer the latter, go with sturdy material and design.

Counter Top or Hanging

Multi-purpose bag is always a good option. Consider getting convertible toiletry bags, where you can put them on the counter or hang them from almost anything. It’s perfect for short trips, when you don’t have time to unpack and repack everything. Just open the flap and use the hook tucked neatly inside. However, there’s one last thing to note: if the bags are designed as hanging toiletry kits, they’re usually not sturdy, just like those “flimsy” ones.

Tanto Hanging Travel Toiletry Bag (CU)

While some of the best toiletry bags for women offer sturdy frame, this one focuses on space efficiency. When not in use, it’s pretty much the size of your tablet. Easy to store and carry! But this doesn’t mean Tanto Hanging Travel Toiletry Bag offers less space. Fold the bag open and you’ll find four different compartments. The bottom compartment is made of waterproof plastic, perfect for fragile liquids with risk of leaking. The two mesh pockets in the middle compartments are great for bottles. And you can store items like razor and nail clippers in the top zippered compartment.

Overall, the materials are durably. It’s made of nylon oxford which is known to have great quality. Plus, waterproof coating is added to make it even more durable and water-resistant. All stress points are double-sewn to withstand heavy loads.

What We Love

It’s a great hanging toiletry bag with easy access and storage.

  • High quality nylon oxford material
  • Takes no space when not in use
  • Simple design
  • Doesn’t protect your items well as there’s no significant framing

Fit your entire skincare routine, go-to makeup and even some hair care products all in this hanging toiletry bag. Rather than laying out your cosmetics on a counter, its fold-out design with accompanying hook and transparent compartments make it easy to unpack onto a closet rod . We appreciate that the zippered pockets and elastic bands ensure your products won't roll around on the move. "I'm a frequent traveler for business and have burned through countless (cheaper) cosmetic bags," says one Amazon reviewer. "Love how it keeps everything in place."

PACKISM Clear Toiletry Bag (2-Pack)

Clear Toiletry Bag (2-Pack)

Cut down on the TSA line time with this prepped-and-ready carry-on bathroom bag. Our pros love that its clear casing is perfect for showing off liquids from the jump. The zippered seams ensure you can reuse it. One Amazon reviewer marvels, "I was able to completely stuff one with travel-sized bottles that were under 100 ml until the sides were bulging out, and the zipper never gave out."

Away The Small Toiletry Bag

The Small Toiletry Bag

As evidenced by our best packing cubes guide, our Textiles pros love Away for its perfectly sized travel gear. The zippered two-pocket carry-on pouch works great for light packers and stashes nicely into weekender bags. It's made from the same water-resistant nylon and mesh inner that drew us to its packing cubes. Plus, its coated wipeable interior deems messes a simple cleanup.

Saie Lilac Oversized Makeup Bag

Lilac Oversized Makeup Bag

No one knows a makeup bag better than a beauty brand, and Saie proves that theory. Its oversized interior lets you comfortably stack full-sized bottles, while o ur textiles experts love its soft, sturdy leather outer that totes it all with ease.

Beis The Cosmetic Case

The Cosmetic Case

Luggage newcomer Beis keeps trending for its sleek and smarter travel designs. Its Cosmetic Case helps its track record thanks to its inner wipeable and stain-proof coating. The brand's reviewers say it's "quite roomy" and seems it'd "wipe down easy after a spill ." While we haven't tested this brand, we love that the most fun perk for makeup users comes with its slip pocket that safeguards an included mirror. Plus, the removable brush holder keeps makeup brushes tucked away.

Rare Beauty Makeup & Pencil Case

Makeup & Pencil Case

Not your ordinary school pencil pouch, but one uniquely designed by Selena Gomez's beauty brand. Keep brushes, eyeliners, et al. separate from the bunch with this cushion pouch topped with a soft silicone zipper . We appreciate that the makeup bag can keep things more sanitary and away from dirty compacts. "Love this! I use it to take makeup with me on days I go [out] for an easy [natural] finish," raves one reviewer.

Exttlliy Mini Hard Shell Hard Travel Cosmetic Case

Mini Hard Shell Hard Travel Cosmetic Case

Designed to protect, hard shell toiletry bags come in clutch if you're more hesitant about stowing away valuables. Our Textiles Lab pros love this type for long vacations to secure makeup and skincare — even when accidentally dropping it . This one boasts 4.6 out of 5 stars on Amazon. "No more spills in my luggage … this has been a lifesaver," raves one reviewer.

OTM Monaco Toiletry Bag

Monaco Toiletry Bag

Protect lipsticks and other cosmetics that melt easily from the sun in this heat-resistant bag . Beauty Assistant Catharine Malzahn says the small, soft-sided toiletry bag kept her items at a safe temperature inside the pristinium-lined pockets. Its small, compact sizing also doubles as a clutch or storage bag to keep phones out of the sunlight.

Walker Valentine Milan Case

Milan Case

A great gift for frequent travelers, this bag shows off a custom monogrammed design. Not only are they adorable, but they also have a plastic coating inside. "My foundation bottle opened on a flight once, leaving foundation all over my bag; all it took was a couple of wipes to clean up ," says Malzahn.

State Travel Pouch Set

Travel Pouch Set

Rather than dig around for loose sunglasses or wallets, our textiles experts stash their necessities in these pouches for safekeeping. Made in a pretty satin finish , they're also versatile enough for traveling, though it's best to leave liquids behind to avoid spilling.

Herschel Chapter Travel Kit

Chapter Travel Kit

Keep it simple with this basic toiletry bag with a waterproof lining for no-fuss cleans. We love Herschel's sturdy fanny packs and backpacks. Using it for years, one textiles pro loves the standard's compact size, which makes it easy to pack. It also comes in carry-on and extra large sizes , depending on whether or not you're a heavy packer.

How we chose the best toiletry bags

double line break

The GH Textiles Lab is comprised of fiber scientists and travel product experts who test all types of luggage, travel accessories and more. We picked the best toiletry bags from brands that performed well in past Lab evaluations (including tested brands from our college backpacks, packing cubes and fanny packs roundups), come recommended by our Beauty Lab experts or feature useful extras so you can fit everything you need and then some.

What to look for in a toiletry bag

✔️ Sizes : Cut down on unnecessary baggage by finding a toiletry bag that best suits your needs. If you're going for a short trip, a smaller everyday bag or pouch can handle your toothbrush, toothpaste, contacts and more. For those longer travels that require checked bags, you can usually get away with packing a bit bulkier.

✔️ Material : Fabric options tend to reign supreme among our textiles and beauty experts. The structure is typically more forgiving and thus much easier to pack. Our fabric experts prefer polyester and nylon for their stain-resistant and easy-to-launder qualities. Though, if you're on the clumsier side or travel with soft duffels or backpacks, a hard shell toiletry bag gives that extra protection for more delicate items.

✔️ Features : We also recommend looking for lined toiletry bags to prevent any liquid spills from seeping through. Transparent bags also means less digging around. When you need a bit more heft, a hanging bag or one with multiple pockets stow away your must-haves in a way that's efficient and lets you get to them quickly.

hep-i-book'a

A lazy perfectionist in the kitchen and on the road, petroskoi or petrozavodsk, capital of karelian republic.

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

My second trip to Petrozavodsk , the capital of Karelian Republic in the North of Russia, has proved once again my first impression of a very provincial and yet welcoming city. In fact this visit has been one of the most rewarding as far as my job goes. But of course there was a travel part to this journey which was almost completely left out during my first time in Petrozavodsk 2 years ago .

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

Petrozavodsk is of exactly the same age as St Petersburg and was founded by the same super-active person, tsar and then emperor Peter the Great. Actually,  Petrozavodsk is a shortened version of Petrovsky Zavod , the Factory of Peter, as there was this factory founded to make metal things for the Russian fleet.

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

People had populated the area long before the new settlement appeared on the shores of the Onega lake, well, in fact, thousands of years earlier, so the region has enough to show and tell about its indigenous people and their culture, the Karelians. The language is very close to the Finnish language and – if not widely spoken – it is still preserved in the region. Petrozavodsk is Petroskoi in Karelian and that’s what you read written on top of the Stalinist railway station building when you arrive from St Petersburg.

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

Karelia for me is all about forests and stones. It’s a pity in this time of the year you don’t see much when travelling with an overnight train. When we arrived in Petrozavodsk it was so early in the morning we had to wait at the station (which had free wifi and actually there’s wifi all over the city for free!) till it got less dark and we could go have breakfast on the 4th floor of an ex- mica factory (dating back to 1930 but now shut down) with a view over the old roofs of the city. We were the first customers but I must say that Na Kryshe (On the Roof) cafe proved to be ready with tasty buttermilk oladyi (pancakes) served with oblepikhovoye varenye ( sea buckthorn jam) and a pot of milk Oolong tea. And that was a very economical breakfast!

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

Out of all the cities I visited so far this autumn I think I liked the haunted Kaliningrad with its ever present past the most. Whereas Chelyabinsk left very negative feeling and it was not for nothing that I kept coughing each time I went outside there, Petrozavodsk left a rather positive impression on me. It’s a small very low rising (unless you visit one of the suburbs) provincial town with some preserved old houses and an embankment where you can catch a hydrofoil to get you to the famous Kizhi island which has become an open-air museum for wooden structures. We arrived too late in the year to get there but I hope I will see Kizhi soon. At least I don’t mind seeing Petrozavodsk in a better weather!

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

Petrozavodsk itself is an open-air museum for old houses, be it wooden barracks or Stalinist imposing buildings along the main arteries of the city. It used to be a very St Pete-like city, I mean the houses were really old, both built in stone and those in wood. Like this hospital building which can be seen from the Onega Lake embankment:

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

Well, the war swept away most of the old city and there came the 1950s when the new rationalizing plans which brought new buildings for the better future of the Soviet Petrozavodsk. And oh boy what houses!

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

This is the house where the central office of Post of Russia is (no postcards!). Actually sometimes the buildings housing Post of Russia are one of the best in the cities I’ve visited (like in Vologda). But then it rarely affect the quality and the swiftness of the service…

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

Another grand Stalinist house forming the ensemble of the central square:

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

With these Stalinist buildings you just have to remember to look up from time to time – to discover all those details and (decaying) balconies which I actually try to avoid these days 🙂

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

And then – in stark contrast – there is this type of houses – we saw several of them:

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

or these barracks – people still live there, mind you…

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

the same house from the other side – and with the wood for the long winter…

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

and this is the entrance to one of the wooden houses opposite those barracks

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

and how about this one?

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

the wall is just oh so decadent!

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

However the city has a number of 19th and early 20th century wooden houses all gathered together near Onega embankment that form a separate district of historical and architectural value. Take a walk along the Onega Lake embankment starting from the square in front of the Theatre and then turning left. But do not walk fast however windy the day might be!

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

The embankment is yet another open-air museum (and how does one fit in all this in such a small town?!) – this time of various successful and not that very successful sculptures and statues. The one from the beginning of the post called the Statue of Fishermen (a gift from Minnesota) looks really nice against the colourful sunset sky and the lake while the tall figure of Peter the Great (19th century) has actually been removed from its original place twice throughout the Soviet period. And guess who stands in Peter’s place now in the middle of the central square? You’ll find it out later in the post.

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

And with this small stone house begins the district full of old wooden houses, in one of which we entered to warm ourselves up a bit and from which we went out with some embroidered souvenirs. They also have some natural products like shampoo and soap, made without any preservatives and all that stuff.

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

This is the hospital church:

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

And this is one of the most expensive hotels in the city spoiling the view on the old town. ‘Spoiling’ because as I said the city has very small amount of high-rises in its historical center, so this weird construction can be seen from far away.

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

On the last day of our stay we left our hotel and went for a walk in the sun, heading towards the local history museum where we wanted to spend some quality time. It was sunny but rather frosty and we had quite a lot of time before the train back to St Pete – that was not an overnight but a rather fast Siemens train with comfortable seats which takes 5 hours.

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

When we came to the end of this wall we realized that was the Industrial Museum (which we skipped) occupying the old factory buildings. We thoroughly enjoyed this urban art on the walls!

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

So in the end we spent an unusual for an average visitor lot of time at the local history museum . Recommended by the way! There’s even a chance to listen to some Karelian folk songs and incantations or get a copy of Karelian recipes (will try some of them for sure!). Karelian cuisine is based on what the wild nature gives you and so some of the exhibits at the museum were dedicated to it.

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

And yep, here’s your Lenin right in the middle of Lenin Square (apparently), where Peter the Great used to stand until the 1930s came. And the Square itself has a very curious story to tell – it changed its name so many times I got lost when counting them. Well, they definitely embellished the look of the square whatever name you call it in the recent years. But as soon as you go into the back yard of the museum, you find yourself staring at this wrack of the “state-preserved” building:

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

The museum will also tell you about the brief period of the Finnish occupation of the city (1941-44) when the same Square which used to be Round Square (:) was renamed into Administrative Square. And oh, remember those Karelian forests that go on and on and on? Well, with the forests you have a strong culture of gathering or foraging and that means you have all the tools for berry picking or hunting for mushrooms 🙂 Here’s what you can see at display at the museum:

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

This thingy with spikes is to pick berries in a fast and efficient way. Everything made from wood and bark of the trees… Perfect! Just as this proto-rucksack for carrying all the treasure the forests can give:

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

After that we just could not have missed the local food! So we headed to the same restaurant opposite one of the best known symbols of Petrozavodsk (hotel Severnaya where I stayed last time – definitely NOT recommended, if only to see the inside of that super-red Stalinist buildings with white columns) where I ate 2 years ago . The restaurant is called Karelskaya Gornitsa and is although quite pricey and tourist-oriented is a nice place to imagine yourself travelling back in time.

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

But you see, last time we went to the Finnish part of the restaurant and this time we entered the Karelian part, which I found out when we were already leaving the place. All the time we were there I was wondering why I cannot recognize the place at all =) And then they explained to me there are two entrances leading to two parts of the restaurant. So we’ve made a better choice this time entering the Karelian cuisine part!

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

There I sampled thew most fluffy and almost yogurt-like thing called tolokno (oat flour which contains all the bran usually removed when making the regular flour) mixed with blueberries (hence the colour) and also a rye blin (pancake) filled with millet. This type of rye or barley pancake is called skantsy or sulchiny and is traditionally filled with porridge (they are either baked or fried, sweet or sour) . We drank cowberry mors (juice) which is almost always the best choice when it comes to traditional non-alcoholic drinks in Russia.  

For some Karelian recipes , see my post on kalitka , traditional Karelian rye boat-like pie which is also enjoyed in Finland and in the North of Russia.

Petroskoi or Petrozavodsk, Republic of Karelia

So, to wrap up Petrozavodsk, here are my checklist points:

  • decent postcards – failed
  • post office – found
  • market – failed
  • local history museum – done
  • dairy products and baked stuff – sampled
  • local specialit é s – as far as the vegetarian stuff is concerned – tasty! And my Mom said that her fried fish and rich mushroom soup were really good!
  • old town – seen and admired

Here you can hear the official hymn of the Republic of Karelia (actually a song from 1963). It was played on the train when we were leaving Petrozavodsk without unfortunately seeing all the beauty of the Karelian woods and lakes…

By the way, I am going to the dark-dark Arkhangelsk in two weeks! Hope this time I will get hold of the authentic sochni of Arkhangelsk…
