Consider the gender of the gift's recipient. Men tend to need less space than women and often put just a few items in a toiletry bag.
Decide whether you want a bag that has small, plastic toiletry bottles, or one that will accommodate full-sized bottles of shampoo, conditioner or lotion.
Choose a bag that will hang up and unroll downward - providing easy access to the contents - or one that sits flat.
Consider both the capacity and the overall size of the bag. Will it fit easily in a suitcase or duffel bag?
Make sure the bag is lined.
Decide if the bag should have a mirror inside. While mirrors are handy to have, they carry the risk of breakage.
Choose a fabric and color for the bag based on the recipient's tastes.
For an added treat, include the recipient's favorite lotions, aftershave, toothpaste or other toiletries in the bag.
