I have an embarrasing admission … My current cosmetic bag is a Baggie. I know. I’ve been carrying it since my last airline trip a couple of months ago and just never bothered to put my makeup into a proper cosmetics bag. It’s ugly but has the benefit of being easily replaced and I don’t care if it gets dirty. So when one of my lipgloss tubes lost its cover and the gloss got all over the Baggie, I didn’t care. I stashed a couple of pieces of gum in there. They melted and, well, yuck. But I didn’t care.
I admit that it is a bit of an embarrassment when I want to refresh my lipgloss and pull it out of my handbag. I get looks.
But I found a product that will neither embarrass me nor have to be thrown away if it gets messed up with makeup. A rather ingenious invention, it’s the cosmetic bag from Vemayca®. Designed to be multi-functional, Vemayca’s cosmetic bags have a generous central compartment as well as two large zippered side compartments. The bag is designed with a flat bottom so it stands upright and its interior silver satin lining helps ensure that the contents don’t get lost in a black hole. Its soft exterior is washable and I love that the bag is vegan-friendly too. Its generous size holds a variety of things from cosmetics to cell phones to sunglasses and it’s good looking enough to go it alone. The bag lives up to its tagline “life beautifully organized®,” and has so many practical applications, it’s a go-to gift for my upcoming holiday shopping.
But, here’s the real genius of a Vemayca bag: it comes with a Soft Pearl Liner™ that is removable, disposable and recyclable. So gunk it up with mascara or, OMG, spilled nail polish and you don’t have to worry that the entire bag is ruined. Simply replace the liner and you’re good to go.
The bags are available in two chic colors: Red Amore and Charcoal Mink and retail for $35.00, a price that includes one liner. Additional liners are available for $7.50 apiece or $15.00 for a package of three. They are sold online at http://www.vemayca.com.
