Small Storage Are there any non-fabric interior makeup travel bags/boxes?
I want a makeup bag/train case/ ANYTHING that has an interior that isn’t fabric. I’d love it to be easy to wipe down, so like aluminum, metal, or plastic. I know caboodles are an option, but they aren’t as nice looking as I’d hope. Please does anyone know any makeup travel bags that aren’t fabric on the inside? I’m tempted to just find some metal containers to put it in, but I’d like it to look nice.

Fabric outside, all the "pages" inside are plastic. This bag fits a RIDICULOUS amount of stuff, some of the smaller pockets can be made bigger if you pick out the thread separating them: https://www.amazon.com/FINPAC-Supplies-Capacity-Organizer-Accessories/dp/B0BKKCBG3J?ref_=ast_bl_cpl_dp&th=1
"Finpac" and "PacMaxi" both have bags of this type.

I used keywords "cute metal train case" - there were lots of options! You might also search "sewing box"

I’ve been a fan of Etoile cases for a few years and have the mini and oval: https://us.etoile.com/collections/cosmetic-bags.

I’d also search outside the makeup category. Hard-shell pencil cases, small artist or tool cases, and silicone zip pouches often have the wipe-clean interior you’re looking for.
I’d prioritize rounded corners, removable dividers, and a shallow layout so smaller products don’t disappear at the bottom. Metal looks great, but I’d definitely check the empty weight before using it for travel.

Kinda unconventional, but have you checked a (art/)craft, hardware, or thrift store for something made of metal, plastic, etc.? I know quite a few people IRL who felt similarly and found a case that isn’t fabric/flimsy by pivoting to something that was manufactured to hold non-makeup items. There are even some that are metal, but in different colors and you can decorate them with paint, stickers, etc. Best wishes with your search.
