Cosmetic Bags

[Gleam]

I just use the free cosmetic bags that come with Gifts with Purchases... I don't like to spend money on them.

I use to use regular cosmetic bags, I have quite an assortment in fact and then came The One!!! Which much like when I found The One eyebrow/eyelash comb/brush happened to be made by Sanrio and is adorned with Hello Kitty on it. It had a mirror which I thought was handy so I started using it and I have used it almost exclusively for four years. After a recent bag bath I noticed the mirror was coming loose and now it has come out completely.

Finding a replacement has proved more difficult then I imagined even when looking for Hello Kitty make-up bags. Most of them are fakes, but that aside they have mirrors with them, but not as a part of the bag it self, which is a must. Or when looking at non-HK cosmetic bags, they are too big. I came across one at Ulta, but it was a bit too big, ugly, and cost $20.00 total rip-off for that bag at least IMO.

I would like something roughly the same size though 1 or 2 inches bigger wouldn't be a problem, color doesn't matter (except: No yellow or orange), under $30.00, and must have a mirror inside it not as a seperate extension if that makes sense. Does anyone have a suggested shopping place for me online or out and about town? I currently reside in Texas. Pictures of my bag below, you can see where the mirror was. I still have the mirror but I don't think I can repair this. The blue marks are mostly from the Purseket I own, it's done that to my brush bag, cell phone pouch, and wallet too. Not pleased about that.

Thank you in advance for any help you may offer.

The HK bags' measurements are:

5.5 in. length x 4 in. height x 3 in. diameter

this is gonna sound so cheap, but I just use a ziploc baggie for my makeup when I travel. The big one gallon ones. I bury it in the middle of my clothes in my suitcase and that is that. Pathetically cheap, huh?

I did that awhile back with a blouse I wanted and I mostly just kept getting annoyed by people responding with items that were not remotely like what I wanted. I had a picture, brand and everything.

I see one bag on ebay that looks all right but I think it is too big...

But thank you.

I got a medium clear caboodles case and I love it so far. I throw essential stuff in it in the bathroom.

I want a nice little bag for my purse though. I don't like my old ones.

Haha, my friend gave me an adorable black one with silver glittery zebra stripes on it..from Claires. I love it! & I have a patent orange one from Clinique, as a goody for spending a certain amount.
