Display-Sheet Makeup Bag Review #displaysheetbag




As women we always want to be prepared at all times. But it can be difficult carrying all of our make-up around with us. Most of us have a cute little make-up bag that we tuck everything into to take with us. Then we pull out what we need as we need it. What I have found over time is that I have to dig to the bottom of my make-up bag to find that one little eyeliner or lipstick. Or sometimes I have found myself dumping the entire contents on the a counter someplace to access the items that I need.

With the display-sheet make-up bag you will not have that issue. You can place all of your make-up inside the bag and quickly close it up. When you are ready to use an item in the bag, you just loosen the strap and pull out the display sheet. All of your items are easily seen and and accessible.

Traveling anytime soon, this make-up bag will be a lifesaver. No need to scatter everything all over a hotel room counter. In a hurry. Left your display sheet and drop the contents right back into the bag, pull the drawstring and go.

One additional feature that worked out well for me was the nylon material that the bag is made up of. Over the years I have learned that I am an absolute klutz. The nylon material made my spills easily cleaned up with just a damp cloth. No need to stare at ugly make-up stains on your cute bag any more.

 I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Atlantic Compass Rolling Tote Review

For those of you that do not know me personally, I am always on the go. Work, school, young children, and all of my family (with the exception of my children), live out of state. That means I am always running back and forth to visit someone, somewhere.

Because of my years of traveling, I have become an expert packer. I can pack for a five day trip in a standard carry on suit case and I can pack for 3 days in a small travel bag. What I have found in the past with my luggage is that they blend in with every other suitcase out there and my zippers break.

I had an opportunity to try the Atlantic Compass Rolling Tote in cranberry. Finally a bag that will not look just like every other bag out there! Atlantic Compass Rolling Tote is the perfect size for a weekend run to see my mom or a quick overnight in the big city. It is light weight empty, which means that you will not be carrying extra weight when it is full.

The bag itself is simple. One large pocket and one small pocket and the styling is what you see the fight attendants using. The handle is collapsed and tucked behind a zipper out of the way until you need it. The zippers are what they call self repairing zippers. That means that they will open and close when you need them to. There are also two small wheels on the bottom of the bag for when you would rather pull it than carry it. I know I don't want to carry my bag if I don't have to.I originally was a little disappointed to see that there was not a small pocket inside the bag. I quickly realized that it really is not needed with the exterior pocket. Ultimately, less pockets means fewer areas for me too lose something.

Overall, I am very pleased with this bag. I like that the bag is available in a color that will not look like every other travel bag at the airport. I really like to be able to lift my bags above my head to store them on an airplane so the fact that it is light weight is a tremendous benefit for me. The wheels on the Atlantic Compass Rolling Tote roll very smooth and do not bind at all. This will be a great bag that will last me through many years of future travel.
