Using this cosmetic zip case is a breeze. Just unzip it and place your small essentials like lipsticks, mascaras, or small makeup tools inside. Then zip it up to keep everything secure. When traveling, simply toss it into your purse, backpack, or duffel. As for maintenance, you can use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the case clean if it gets dirty. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the polyurethane material. Remember, because of the unique nature of the material, the color and pattern might be a bit different from the picture, but that just makes your case one - of - a - kind!
