This bestselling toiletry bag from L.L.Bean checks a lot of boxes at once: It’s durable, water-resistant, has ample storage and smart organization compartments, and has a hinged design for easy access. The built-in hook is handy for travel, especially if you’re staying in small spaces with limited bathroom space, plus the shower caddy safely stows your bottles as you bathe. It comes in three sizes; we like the medium for a long trip or a couple, while the large—which has an impressive 9-liter capacity—is a great toiletry storage solution for the whole family.

This pick from Bagsmart zips open to reveal four storage compartments for all your toiletries and then some. Each zippered section has a transparent window for easy viewing, while the exterior’s made of a quilted peachy-soft, water-resistant fabric that’s chic enough to put on display at home. The pouches at the top and bottom are perfect for smaller items like razors and mini bottles, and the two main areas are roomy enough to fit some full-size toiletries. Whether you end up using this at home or on the go, your belongings will stay organized and accessible, all without breaking the bank.

This toiletry bag from Peak Design is built to last for years. The Wash Pouch has a compact silhouette, although once you zip it open, you’ll discover an array of organization options to stow your toiletries, down to the magnetic toothbrush pocket—complete with a removable liner that’s washable. The silicone-coated mesh pockets are a great touch, as are the large main sections with handy slots to keep bottles in place and the smaller exterior pockets for easy accessibility. The aluminum hook lets you hang your pouch just about anywhere, but one thing to note: Several reviewers say the hook is a little shallow, causing the bag to slip off pretty easily.

The Aer Travel Kit 2 has an ultra-slim profile, but there’s room to store a lot more than one might expect at first glance. There’s multiple compartments to keep your essentials organized, like an exterior toothbrush holder, zippered pockets and elastic bands designed to secure travel-sized bottles. Another bonus: The interior is treated with an anti-microbial lining the keep mildew at bay, plus the durable Cordura exterior is easy to rinse off and air dry if necessary.

If you’ve ever experienced a toiletry bag leak, you already know how annoying it is to deal with damp clothes when you reach your destination. The FlatPak Waterproof Toiletry Case from Matador solves that problem. It features a simple roll-top, buckled design—similar to dry bags used for water sports—and a durable stand-up bottom that holds up against multiple surfaces. The heavy-duty Cordura exterior is fully waterproof, but in case anything spills inside, it comes equipped with a unique Dry-Through technology that’s designed to let water evaporate when the case is closed. White it doesn’t have the fancy storage compartments like some of the other bags on our list, it does have a durable loop perfect for hanging from a bathroom hook—or a branch, if you’re camping.

A hanging toiletry bag that fully opens up not only saves space, it also makes your items more accessible when you’re on the road. This sizable option from Venture 4th offers ample storage for full-size bottles and accessories, a detachable, TSA-friendly see-through pouch for small liquid items and a multi-purpose hook. The hook is multi-purpose: When open, the bag hangs from a door or towel rod, or for a stable countertop solution, the top flap folds around the main compartment and the hook attaches to a back loop, creating a base for the bag in its upright position. Two side accordian-style pockets unzip to provide extra space for dry or wet items, while the many mesh and PVC pockets provide a place for everything else you need to bring on your big trip.

A travel toiletry bag needs to be durable, of course, but that’s doesn’t mean it can’t be stylish. MZ Wallace’s Metro Accordian Cosmetic hits both marks: It’s made of the brand’s proprietary fabric blend, REC Oxford, which recycles pre-consumer manufacturer scraps and turns it into a long-lasting, chemical-free textile. With a quilted exterior and a box-like silhouette that could easily double as a handbag for a night out, it unzips to reveal five accordian-style compartments for toiletries, makeup and more. The black Italian leather trim and matte black zippers amp up the style points, so you can look good and store a lot simultaneously. If black is a bit too minimal for your taste, check out the metallic copper version, available for a slightly higher price.

Another compact solution with a surprising amount of storage, Wandrd’s Toiletry Bag offers organization and easy access. It opens wide to reveal a main interior section and has multiple areas designed to hold smaller items, including a toothbrush sleeve and zippered front pocket for razor. It’s water-resistant—although not technically waterproof—but the fabric is so durable, it comes with a lifetime guarantee. Another cool feature: The webbing loops and clips can be used to attach it to other Wandrd products, like the PRVKE travel backpack, or a carry strap can be added to instantly transform the toiletry bag into a crossbody sling for daytime sightseeing.
