Description
This soft quilted makeup bag is made from cotton printed with the Cornflower pattern: small posies of blue flowers on green stems, set in neat rows across a creamy white ground with tiny green dots in between. Fine lines of stitching run from top to bottom, giving the cotton its gently padded, quilted texture. It is a neat, boxy shape, 16cm long, 10cm tall and 8cm wide, so it sits neatly upright on a shelf or tucked into a case. A white tassel hangs from the zip, and a small fabric tab at the other end gives you something to hold as you open it.
It is a handy size for the things you reach for every day: a lipstick, a mascara, a compact and a few slim brushes. Small enough to slip into a handbag, a weekend bag or a suitcase, it looks just as at home on a dressing table or a bathroom shelf. Three pockets inside keep smaller pieces from rattling around at the bottom, so lip balms, hair grips and earrings are easy to find. The soft blue and white print makes it a lovely gift for anyone who likes pretty, practical things for their travels or their everyday bag.
Inside, a water-resistant EVA lining sits behind the cotton, so a dusting of powder or a smear of foundation wipes away easily. The bag closes with a cotton and metal zip and weighs only 0.049KG, so it adds next to nothing to your luggage. The cotton outside is not made for washing: wipe it clean with a cloth and a little neutral detergent, and never bleach, iron, tumble dry or dry clean it. We like it filled with a few favourite beauty treats and wrapped in tissue as a ready-made present, or kept for yourself as a pretty home for the makeup you carry every day.
