There should be a zipper closure and slots to safely and securely hold your brushes and liquid products.
Packing your makeup bag for trips takes some planning to prevent spilling or cracking.
Try wrapping products in plastic wrap and cushioning with cotton balls or powder puffs.
For liquids, fire up the cap and place some plastic wrap over the opening.
Screw the cap back on, and add more plastic wrap around the top.
you might also place things in spill-proof reusable bags or smaller travel-size sealed containers.
