Katie Loxton’s ‘best makeup bag’ is the perfect bride gift
For those with busy lifestyles who are always on the go, a convenient and reliable beauty storage pouch is essential. Many of us are guilty of shoving a few essentials into a handbag or jacket pocket – but having a dedicated makeup bag that is as pretty as it is practical can make all the difference.
Former Love Island star Chloe Burrows was recently chatting to Sheerluxe editor Saroop Sangha on The LuxeGen Group Chatpodcast. During the conversation, Saroop talked to Chloe about how much she loves the new Katie Loxton AW26 collection.
Chloe revealed her love for Katie Loxton’s accessories, specifically the generously sized Soho Large Makeup and Wash Bag. She said: “Wait, they do makeup bags, don’t they? I’ve got a pink one. That is the best makeup bag in the whole world… it fits absolutely everything.”
The Soho Large Makeup and Wash Bag comes in at £42.99 and is available in 15 different shades and patterns, from cherry to deep rose, with chocolate leopard, taupe suedette and cherry patent crackle being brand new for AW26. Designed with organisation in mind, it features a central divider and internal elasticated slip pockets to keep beauty essentials neatly separated.
It’s made from smooth vegan leather and finished with gold-tone hardware and Katie Loxton’s signature charm tassel zip pull for a luxurious feel. Katie Loxton also offers the option to personalise the wash bag with a gold foil monogram or embroidered initial, perfect for gifting, bridal parties and more.
The brand says the Soho Large Wash Bag has been designed to make it easier to see and access your products, with the bag opening out completely and offering multiple compartments for smaller essentials.
For a similar concept but a slightly different execution, The Flatlay Co’s Drawstring Makeup Bag is £23.99 at Sephora. The idea is that you can unfold and throw all your makeup onto the bag, then pull on the drawstring to close the bag in seconds.
Alternatively, at Elizabeth Scarlett, the Sun Goddess Open Flat Makeup Bag is £54.99. While it features a beautiful velvet embroidered design, Katie Loxton’s wipe-clean outer is an added bonus that Elizabeth Scarlett’s doesn’t benefit from.
Reviews describe the Katie Loxton offering as ‘roomy’ and ‘sheer luxury at an affordable price’. One buyer wrote: “This is a roomy bag, which opens out completely to make it easy to see all your items inside. Various pockets to store smaller items. It arrived safely packaged.”
Another added: “Large bag to hold all my face products including cleansing, serums and moisturiser. Also holds my make up and it is all kept together in one bag. Lovely colour to match weekend bag and material is so soft.”
Though one gave a four-star review as the colour they had wanted was out of stock. They said: “Lovely washbag, great quality. I chose the embroidered monogram in gold and it looks great. The gift wrapping is beautiful, with a personalised tag and gift bag at no extra cost, it really gives a luxurious feel. One star removed for availability of stock as preferred colours not available. A really lovely gift.”
Another five-star review read: “Love the way the Soho large wash bags opens up so you can reach everything easily. I picked the Deep Rose colour and it’s lovely.”
“Ordered for a random ‘make you smile’ present for my daughter. It certainly did that,” a fifth buyer commented. “She absolutely loved it. Beautifully packaged. Sheer luxury at an affordable price. Such gorgeous quality.”
While the brand has become known for its personalised vegan leather handbags, accessories and gifts, the new AW26 collection takes things up a notch. The latest edit includes new combs, hair brushes and makeup brushes, all designed with the same minimalist aesthetic.
The Boxed Hairbrush & Case Set comes in at £24.99, available in cherry, chocolate and light taupe. The brush features gentle nylon bristles to help prevent tugging and reduce breakage, while the vegan leather protective sleeve keeps it neatly stored in your handbag for on-the-go.
And for those who travel regularly or have weekends away planned, the Soho Hand Woven Weekend Bag is another great pick to have in your arsenal. Priced at £119.99, it’s designed for style and comfort, with padded top handles and a detachable crossbody strap so it can be worn multiple ways.
But for those who have often struggled to squeeze skincare, makeup and haircare products into impractical bags, the Soho Large Makeup and Wash Bag from Katie Loxton seems to be a popular choice for £42.99.
