Here’s an easy 15 minute DIY makeup bag that doesn’t require any sewing. No matter what your crafting level is, you can totally pull this one off. 

Now that the girls are back in school, I’m hoping to have a little bit more time to do some of the things I’ve been wanting to do. With the chaos of summer, it seems as if the days are long but the weeks are short. With all of the craziness that’s going on around me, I often forget I have to take care of myself as well. I’m sure many of you can relate.

As silly as they may seem, I was really looking forward to some uninterrupted crafting time as well as being able to take the time to incorporate a new morning routine for myself. Don’t get me wrong, I had a shotty one at best before but like really take care of myself. Not the usual brush my teeth and throw my hair in a mom bun stuff.

Three weeks in, and I finally did it! Once I was “caught up” on things around the house that were somewhat neglected over the summer, it was my time to shine. I was more than ready to do something I truly enjoy. It was time to bust out the scissors, turn up the music, and get my crafting on.  

Here’s what you will need to make your very own no sew makeup bag:

• 15″ x 10″ piece of fabric 
• 9″ zipper 
• Fabric glue 

The heavier the fabric, the more durable your no sew makeup bag will be. I recommend using some sort of upholstery fabric. 

Turn the fabric wrong side up and fold in half an inch of fabric on the end of each side, and iron to hold in place. Place the 9″ zipper in the center of the fabric folds, right side facing up, and glue each folded edge to the zipper.

 

Once glued, unzip the zipper and let dry for about an hour before moving on to the next step. Turn the fabric inside out, to glue the right sides of the fabric together.

Allow at least an hour drying time.

Turn the design to the right side and you are finished. I told you it was easy!

So what’s in my makeup bag? All of the essentials to kick my new morning routine in gear!

• Sassy red nail polish
• Mascara
• Eye brow pencil
• Loose powder
• Colgate® Optic White® RADIANT™ Toothpaste

Colgate® Optic White® RADIANT™ Toothpaste is safe for everyday use and won’t harm your enamel. It’s an anti-cavity fluoride toothpaste that will not only whiten but keep your teeth clean and safe from cavities (when used daily).  Exactly what my routine needed!

One thing that sets this awesome whitening toothpaste apart from the others is that it works to whiten your teeth from the inside, out. It removes the deep-set stains below your tooth’s surface to give you a Radiant™, whiter, smile. It’s made with Hydrogen Peroxide, so it’s perfectly safe.

I picked up my first tube at ShopRite when grabbing a few other beauty products and am completely hooked! I wish I would have started taking better care of myself a long time ago. As busy moms, we tend to put ourselves last. Well, guess what moms, we can take care of the family and ourselves!
