MAC x Mia Moretti Makeup Bags & Tote Bag Quick Review & Photos
MAC x Mia Moretti Makeup Bags
Long-time readers know that one thing I still collect are limited edition MAC bags, so I bought the accessories in the MAC x Mia Moretti collaboration when they went online this past week! There’s not much to say about these, as they’re in-line with MAC’s past limited edition makeup bag releases. I don’t think the tote is worth the money, as it has such a narrow width (about two inches) that it just isn’t wide enough to be a useful tote bag to me. I don’t even think it would hold more than a laptop and a book for school. All of the accessories will be easy to wipe down if you spill anything on them, at least.
MAC x Mia Moretti Makeup Bags ($46.00) is a set of three translucent makeup bags with red zippers and a honey-hued plastic exterior with a basketweave pattern. The bags nest within themselves, so you get makeup bags in small (7 x 3.5 inches), medium (8.5 x 5 inches), and large (11 x 7 inches). The shapes and sizes are useful and will store a variety of makeup items, and since they nest, they don’t take up as much space when you’re not using them.
MAC x Mia Moretti Tote Bag ($50.00) shares the same coloring, pattern, and design as the makeup bags. It’s about 17 inches tall, 15 inches in width, and 2 inches in depth. I just don’t think there’s enough depth to make this particularly useful. It seems a lot less practical/versatile as a result, since its carrying capacity is very much restricted by the width of the bottom panel.

I liked the translucent design 🙂 But they are quite expensive!
The makeup bag pricing makes sense to me (you get three, and against MAC’s pricing on individual bags, it actually seems not bad at all), but the tote bag is a lot.
MAC thinks, or rather Estée Lauder thinks the MAC brand is Louis Vuitton, but made in China. You can buy the same stuff for a fraction if the price at Ulta or some beauty store or free with GWP.. They probably all came out of the same Chinese factory and a label just got stuck onto it.
I’m sure!
These look cheap and certainly not worth the price! Especially the tote bag – it looks like something you’d get for free in some sort of store or brand promotion! I recently got a bunch of Sonia Kashuk makeup bags for between 5 and 12 dollars and they all look much nicer than these and are much more functional.
Good thing there are lots of options when it comes to makeup bags! 🙂
I wish they weren’t see-through. Because I do like the print and the colors.
I don’t think I’d want to carry around a see-through tote bag so much! Makeup bags are fine for me, since I don’t carry them in public, lol!
I have a love-hate relationship with see through bags!
Me too!
To me, these have a very 70s vibe to them.
I can definitely see where you’re getting that from!
I think these bags are adorable, and more importantly, travel-friendly. I don’t know that I want to spend that kind of money on vinyl cosmetics bags though.
I think you can definitely get great bags for way, way less!
