If you find yourself digging through a cluttered makeup bag, switch to this ingenious flat drawstring cosmetics organizer.
Like your kids’ Lego bag, this one opens flat so you can see all your products. Simply cinch it up when you’re done. The raised edges, elastic brush loops, and a zippered pocket keep everything in place. Use it for travel, the gym, or even for touchups at work.
A 20” version starts at under $20. It also comes in 16” and 22” sizes and a range of prints/colors.

My sweet nephew was born this week! Yay!!! He has two big sisters (3yo and 6yo) and I am thinking about getting them a fun gift now that their little brother has arrived. Does anyone have any cute suggestions? For what it’s worth I try to avoid sticker books or something that could make an extra mess for the parents to clean up– when my second baby was born my daughter covered our house in stickers lol.
