When I travel, I often use free-with-purchase cosmetic bags I’ve collected over the years. For an upgrade, I’m eyeing this luxe leather beauty bag from Marc Jacobs. 

Made from durable, pebbled leather, this cosmetic case is lined with polyurethane for easy cleanup. It has room for everything you need for your trip, and there’s even a removable wrist strap for carrying hands-free.

This cosmetics case is $95 at Nordstrom and comes in six colors ranging from black to lilac.
