I bought this two weeks ago, and I regret it. The wash pouch has too many pockets. I'm a simple guy, I don't need so many different pockets for different cosmetics - when I purchase a large cosmetic bag, I expect it to have ample space for all my essentials. All these compartments, divisions and pockets make the wash pouch lose capacity. Unfortunately.
As someone who travels a lot and has been throwing all of my wash stuff in a simple cotton pouch for the last decades, this Wash Pouch is a game-changer. Everything is so organized and you don't need to take anything out when you arrive somewhere: all you have to do is to open it and hang it somewhere. I got the big one and it fits a lot of stuff: hairbrush, 2 sets of toothpaste/toothbrush, floss, cream, jewelry, etc. but does also not feel too big (I like to keep things as minimalistic as possible). I keep discovering new places to put/hide stuff, which is great.
I really wanted to love this, and don't get my wrong it's a fanastically designed wash bag hence the 5 stars, it's just not right for me. As much as I love organising, when it comes down to packing for a short trip everything I take with me is bulky, meaning all the benefits of the pockets and pouches are lost on me.
I ended up giving the wash pouch to my wife who does love it, I now just use 2 XS ultralight packing cubes for my toiletries.
I love this wash pouch! So many different slots and pockets to help organize my toiletries. I also love how the middle pouch holds a toothbrush and is designed to easily come inside out for cleaning it. Very high quality materials also. The only downside is that I'm an overpacker, so not all of my makeup and razors and tampons etc fit into my wash pouch for my most recent trip. However, I do overpack more than the average person lol. My solution was that I just bought a second wash pouch, so I'll have one for toiletries used in the shower and one for makeup/period supplies and other odds and ends. Excellent product!
I travel a lot for work, probably twice a month, plus personal travel and camping trips. I've used several dopp bags in the past, but nothing compares to this one. It is sturdy and tough. The organization Inside has a spot for everything I need, including moisturizer, contact lenses, and medications in addition to normal stuff like deodorant and a toothbrush. The towel rack hook actually works and the dividers act as shelves when it's hanging. If I lost it, I'd buy another one immediately.
It's a great pouch! The only reason I give this four stars is because I'm a woman. I don't use brushes or line sticks or anything like that; however, I agree with the current most critical but helpful review that highlights the fact that this bag isn't as makeup-friendly. I feel that I would have more difficulty if I had brushes, so consider what your makeup loadout is before purchasing. That being said...
This wash pouch is fantastic! It's of excellent quality, relatively light, and fits all my makeup and haircare supplies (excluding shampoo/conditioner, which I store in my small wash pouch). I've included a sample loadout in my pictures, and there's still room for more stuff. In my sample loadout, I left the toothbrush pouch, the external pouch, and two of the inner side mesh pouches completely empty. I'm sure that if I used a regular toothbrush instead of an electric toothbrush with a bulky case, I could fit it and my other oral care utensils in this easily. I also love how this product stands on its own, affording me easy access to all my makeup and haircare products when I have it set out on the bathroom counter after a shower.
