Times are rough. Since Jan. 20, watching the news has felt like an endless game of how much anxiety I can experience before I start huffing lavendar essential oil and finding the nearest Lush bath bomb. One piece of solace? Makeup. These 9 feminist makeup bags celebrate girl power — which clearly seems to be under attack — and keeps my arsenal of makeup products safe. While a makeup bag doesn't seem like a way to resist, my makeup routine is my self care, and my makeup bag reminds me to take care of myself and still fight the good fight.
A great makeup bag is also kind of a necessity. Whether you travel regularly, just like a touch up through out the day, or like to convert your look from day to night after leaving the office, keeping your liner, mascara, and lipstick one hand is never a bad idea.
