NEWSPAPER COSMETIC POUCH


This product is environmentally friendly. Click icon for more information. This product was made by hand. Click icon for more information. Nothing goes better with your lipstick than a little light reading. Handmade from real newspapers, this roomy cosmetic bag is covered in water-resistant laminate and features a heavy duty zipper to keep all your belongings in check. Spot cleans easily (we all know how dirty those makeup bags can get!) and can do double-duty as a cute clutch. Handmade in Los Angeles. Due to the recycled nature of this bag, each is one-of-a-kind and will vary. Newspaper print can come from style, arts, travel, or home sections. Sorry, no choice of print.

Return, Stiff, Small, OJ & Gun Headline
By Oh Well from Chicago on 2/26/2009
Gift:
Yes
Pros:
Good idea gone wrong
Cons:
Looks Cheap, Not Enough Room, Zipper sticks Awkward
Best Uses:
Recycle
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about NEWSPAPER COSMETIC POUCH:

This is really only a novel idea. It's value and function are missing. Sorry. Also, there needs to be a slight thought put into the paper used: One Side is about OJ & His Gun; the Other about Rosie O's gay lifestyle...not my idea of interesting topics, or attractive.

cosmetic pouch
By the runner from New York on 1/31/2009
Gift:
Yes
Cons:
Absolutely tiny, Totally disappointed with, Why such big box to mail
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about NEWSPAPER COSMETIC POUCH:

I was so totally disappointed when I got this. I had seen a decent size clutch in Sanibel from the LA Times when I was with my friend.She absolutely loved it and when I told her they were available from the NY TImes, with the Times Name on them, she was so psyched. So I ordered her one for her birthday. I can't believe you used such a big box to mail this tiny thing,and then will not refund my postage. Very disappointed with my first order from you. \n\nTrish

Not quite right
By MichelleVerified Buyer from Cincinnati, OH on 1/29/2009
Gift:
No
Pros:
Easy Access
Cons:
Color Not As Expected
Best Uses:
Traveling
Describe Yourself:
Classic, Comfort-Oriented, Practical
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about NEWSPAPER COSMETIC POUCH:

I like the cosmetic pouch and bought it planning to use it as a sort of clutch for going out at night. It doesn't zip completely closed on either side, so that's a bummer, even if I plan to use it for makeup as brushes could fall out. Also, the newspaper used isn't nearly as cute as the one advertised. It's sewn well and has a sturdy zipper. [...]

Service & Delivery comments:

Delivery, packaging and customer service were all five-star quality!

This cosmetic pouch is great. The only downfall is that you do not get to pick the newspaper pages it comes decorated in so it could be a hit or miss but mine was great.
