I bought a Habe travel makeup bag from Amazon.com as a gift recently for my mother and she loved it. Had I not already owned a similar case from years ago, I would have bought another for myself. You can see for yourself how much it can hold and the variety of items you can store. …
It’s High Tea Time!
