Travelon has been taking care of our travel needs for almost 30 years. The label’s at it again with the Mini Independence Bag, an accessory which takes control of our cosmetics and toiletries.
Travelon rarely delivers fashion forward looks, but I quite like the clean curved lines and bold pink color of this cosmetics bag. It’s made from microfiber, a fabric whose strength and low price helps to make up for its lack of luxury.
I might like its look, but I love the Mini Independence’s design. Its name might suggest that this is a small cosmetics purse, but nothing could be further from the truth. There are elastic banded pockets for full-sized bottles, and three clear pockets for 16-ounce containers. Personally I’d use these for my shampoo and conditioner as you need not worry about the liquids leaking out. Seven smaller elastic bands can take care of your toothbrush and paste, nail clippers, and other small essentials. There’s also a handy hanging jewelry roll for holding your rings, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings on your travels. The nine-inch compartment could even hold a hair dryer or straightener!
That’s just the start though. Outside we see two zippered pockets up front, and a side pouch big enough for holding a water bottle during your plane trip.
Travelon also offers us plenty of carrying options. Grab the Mini Independence by its top handle, sling it over your shoulder, or attach it to your rolling luggage using the add-a-bag strap on the back. Once you reach your destination you can hang the bag over a door knob or towel rack using its buckle loop.
It might be mini, but this Travelon cosmetics bag is definitely mighty!
