WHY I LOVE THIS PRACTICAL AND BEAUTIFUL TOILET BAG

I don't travel the world, but I do travel to the USA. Always practical and economical since I lost my previous cosmetic bag. I've only used Ziploc bags to store my toiletries when traveling, but after my last trip on vacation I decided to treat myself to a matching toiletry bag (as well as a matching luggage set and a good travel jewelry organizer, but that's another story). Still, I didn't want to spend a lot of money on something that isn't essential and will only be used a couple of times a year. I researched and reviewed several dozen bags. Some were more expensive than I was willing to pay. Some of them were too small and others just didn't have the features I needed. I chose the Bagsmart because I love it: 1) It's versatile and can hold full-size toiletries. 2) Spacious compartments with different size elastic bands to keep toiletries in place and prevent slipping. 3) The price was very reasonable; especially when compared to more expensive bags that had less comparable features (I had this item in my shopping cart for a few days while continuing to explore other bags, and after that there was a price drop that decided me to buy). 4) The listing gave me all the information I needed to make an informed purchasing decision. I really don't like it when sellers only provide a picture and barely describe the merits of the item they are trying to sell. Not only did Bagsmart do an excellent job of describing the practical aspects of the product, they even compared it to other toiletry bags; which was very amazing and helpful. CONS: 1) I chose the "Soft Pink" color. I'm not sure if the writer of the description is color blind or if there was some mix-up with the color lab or the fabric designer, but as several other reviewers have pointed out, the color of the bag I received would not be considered soft pink. . It's more of a beige-pink color (I wouldn't even call it a dusty pink). However, I deduced this from the image prior to purchase (although you may not always be able to tell this depending on the monitor or screen it is being viewed on). 2) The bag must be water-repellent, but it should be noted that it is made of fabric. While I'm sure it's been treated with some sort of solution like Scotchgard, it's probably more likely to be accidentally stained than vinyl bags. However, I don't really care. 3) Several reviewers commented that the bag wasn't very "beautiful". Again, it didn't matter for my purposes. I don't just wear it and walk the red carpet with it. It will come with toiletries and it will be locked in my suitcase for most of its useful life, so I'm ok if it looks like the ugly duckling of the swan family :-) Conclusion: It was a good choice for my needs at a reasonable price . The price and I am very satisfied.
