| The one I used was many years old and has finally torn and can no longer be used. I never loved it, but it worked, so I don't want to get the same thing (L.L. Bean). Do you all have a bag that fits all your travel stuff (toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, hair serum, some makeup, etc.) that you love? What do you use and what do you fit in it? |

What's your use case?
I have a larger LL bean hanging foldable bag that I use for longer trips. I like it because I can hang it in a hotel bathroom and easily find my stuff. (I have the small -- I find it plenty capacious for everything that I need for as much as a week and a half, and but the website says it is for "1-2 days" :0 ) What it holds: toothpaste; toothbrush; mouthwash; deodorant; shampoo; face scrub; moisturizer; a small box which contains jewelry; tweezers, nail clippers; a small microfiber towel; a coupe of bandaids. For a short trip I just bring a TSA compliant clear plastic bag like this. What it holds: toothpaste; toothbrush; tiny bottle of mouthwash; deodorant; small (1 oz container) face scrub; small jewelry box. Usually use this for short trips where I am staying in a hotel, but it will also fit a small bottle of shampoo if I need it. |

I have had the LLBean ones in the past, and then I got this toiletry bag from Ebags, and I like it so much more.
https://www.ebags.com/accessories/classic-pack-it-flat-toiletry-kit/117873XXXX.html?dwvar_117873XXXX_color=Eggplant&cgid=accessories It folds flatter, zips easier, etc. They also have a large size. https://www.ebags.com/accessories/classic-large-pack-it-flat-toiletry-kit/117824XXXX.html?dwvar_117824XXXX_color=Aquamarine&cgid=accessories It looks like both are on clearance right now, so worth trying out. I still use my old LLBean bags for my kids' stuff, and I curse it every time. |
Same. I have — and still like — the ll bean bag. For overnight I just use ziplocs. |

It's not pretty and it's relatively pricey, but I got this one for my DH as a gift last year based on a NY Mag Strategist article, and he really loves it. It's technically a packing cube, but it's waterproof and opens to lay flat. I got the 10L but I think there are smaller sizes.

I have this exact one. I've had it for probably 10 years and still going strong. Shocking how much I can fit and how compact it is. I love that I can just hang it on a hook on the back of the bathroom door when traveling, and never really have to unpack it

I use the Cuyana travel case set and it makes me happy every time. Surprisingly roomy. I think you can get dupes from Quince at a lower price point but I am happy to support Cuyana.

I love the Dagne Dover hunter bag - it comes in two sizes and has several separate zipper containers inside so you can organize things.

This one stays open so it’s easy to find items. I love it. |

| Just go to Nordstrom rack and look at the different dop kit bags in the men’s accessories section. See what may work for you. |
| I have a round Vera Bradley bag that I absolutely LOVE. Sadly, I don’t think they make that model anymore. |
