Bottom Line

Faux leather case from a known brand and at a great price point.

Pros

Smaller case that’s a great size for traveling and holds the essentials. Four trays with locking hatch. Huge center tray for larger items. Good for kids, as it also works well as a craft box.

Cons

Comes in several colors and prints, and it seems random which one you'll receive.

For the professional makeup artist, a large case is required to haul around supplies from client to client. These cases feature a spot for everything from lipsticks, to eyeshadow palettes, to brush tools. Cosmetic train cases are equally suitable for non-professionals who crave organization. They’re also useful for other beauticians from nail artists to hair care professionals. For ultimate durability select a case that’s waterproof. Professionals lugging around larger supplies like hair care tools should opt for a larger case. Models with a strap are most comfortable to travel with, but the majority of train cases simply have sturdy carrying handles for transport.
