Louise Thompson's £30 travel case is ‘brilliant' for organising beauty items
If you're looking for a way to keep all your beauty and accessories organised while travelling, then Louise Thompson 's latest Amazon find is just the thing. The former Made in Chelsea star shared her most recent purchase with fans on Instagram over the weekend, talking about her 'brilliant' Portable Travel Makeup Case.
The compact travel case is just £29.99, and has plenty of compartments to keep your things neatly organised and safe, whether you're travelling or just looking for some handy storage from home. It even features a light up mirror so you can use it on the go to top up your makeup.
The storage is what makes this so incredibly handy, with a large makeup brush storage board to keep 10 of your brushes clean and separate from each other. It also contains multiple partitions in the main body, which are perfect for stacking blushers, lipstick and foundations, or – as Louise did – placing your jewellery to stop it from getting tangled or lost.
One of the best additions to the Portable Travel Makeup Case is the in-built mirror, with three different coloured light settings and adjustable brightness. That means you can apply your makeup on the go, from your tent at a festival or even just in a badly lit hotel room.
A single charge of the light should last around a week when used for 30 minutes a day, and it's fully rechargeable. You'll also get an additional 3.5 inch mirror with 10x magnification, which is great for applying more detailed beauty looks, or if you struggle to see without glasses whilst putting your makeup on.
We also spotted some similar version to Louise's Amazon pick on the high street, with Next's Light Up Mirror Makeup Bag With Removable LED Mirror priced at £40, whilst Dunelm has the Travel Cosmetics Bag with LED Mirrored Light for £30, with both offering a similar size and design. For a more high end version with a slimline size, the Beautifect Box Nude is £279 and is a firm favourite amongst celebrities and makeup artists.
However the Portable Travel Makeup Case has been getting some rave reviews from Amazon shoppers, with a 4.6 star rating. One shopper wrote: 'How did I manage without it!!! Sturdy, well made.'
With another agreeing: 'Not one to write a review, but bought this as a Christmas present and it is so much better than I expected! The quality is really good, the mirror & light is great, and lots of storage room. Would 1000% recommend.'
One criticism was: 'Nice but too heavy.'
However another happy customer wrote: 'Solid sturdy bag, mirror is fab and lots of room for makeup. Only complaint is I wish the cable for the mirror was removable, but I still think it's worth it. I will probably buy some for gifts in the future. It'll be amazing for festivals or trips away.'
The Portable Travel Makeup Case comes in nine different colours, and you can choose whether you want the built-in mirror, or one that comes with a detachable magnetic mirror instead. It's also made from a durable faux leather which is waterproof, dustproof and shock absorbing, so no broken palettes if it gets dropped or knocked around in your suitcase.

Jamie Laing makes cryptic five-word dig at Spencer Matthews amid feud
Jamie Laing has shared his thoughts on once best pal Spencer Matthews after the former Made In Chelsea duo's relationship seemingly soured Jamie Laing has opened up about his tense relationship with former Spencer Matthews co-star Spencer Matthews. The former pals have reportedly been feuding in recent years, with many speculated reasons flying about. The once best pals have had tension since Jamie married Sophie Habboo. Spencer was surprisingly not invited to the duo's first wedding in the UK in 2023. Then, at the Spanish ceremony, Spencer reportedly acted in a bd manner. It's claimed that Spencer was also unimpressed with Jamie's charity run, with extreme athletic stunts said to have been Spencer's "thing." Despite that, Jamie raised millions for Comic Relief thanks to his efforts. Now, after being asked about their friendship, Jamie made a candid five-word confession. Speaking to You Magazine, Jamie called his fellow TV star "hard to get along with" as he candidly opened up on their friendship. "Look, what can I say? I love Spencer, I really love him so much, and I don't think he'd mind me saying this… um… look, Spencer's a hard person to be friends with," he said. "We were thick as thieves for a long time, but I think what happens is family and life. From my side, I have no jealousy towards him whatsoever. I only love and adore him more than anything in the entire world. I still consider him one of my closest friends, and I'm godfather to his daughter. But, yeah… I mean… You would have to ask him." Jamie reiterated his adoration for his once best pal before again adding it would have to be Spencer who answered why they are no longer as close as they once were. The reality TV star also recently opened up on how he and his wife broke Buckingham Palace rules with a cheeky Meghan Markle-inspired twerk. The moment left King Charles laughing with an awkward etiquette blunder. Shortly before attending the annual King's Trust Awards in June, the duo admitted that an initial faux-pas from Sophie, 30, prompted a subsequent photo in which the monarch appears to laugh at the couple. In the image, which sparked a social media storm, the pair appeared to poke fun at Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's notorious pregnancy twerk video during their trip to the Palace. The moment raised eyebrows after they cheekily filmed themselves on the Grand Staircase at the Palace, which has been traversed by Kings and Queens, Princes and Princesses. While the moment of Sophie and Jamie filming was a breach in protocol, palace aides fortunately found the funny side. On its official Instagram account 'theroyalfamily' replied to Jamie's post, adding: 'We see you' accompanied by a pair of eyes and a wink emojis. The King's Trust entered the conversation in the spirit of the occasion with the quip: 'All of our attendees are very well behaved.'
