Review and Giveaway: Lavishy Cat Vegan Leather Makeup/Pencil Pouch

I'm always on the lookout for great vegan leather products. Some of the cheaper options are accidentally vegan, but they are often produced in ways that are not socially or environmentally conscious. Lavishy offers a unique line of vegan leather products, including the cat two compartment makeup/pencil pouch, made with materials that biodegrade in 10 years.

Pros:
  • Cute design
  • Lined pouch for water resistance
  • Detachable hand strap
  • Material biodegrades in 10 years
  • Animal-friendly vegan leather
  • Affordable
Cons:
  • May be hard to find locally

Summary:
This pouch is a great size. It is long enough for makeup brushes, combs, and other travel essentials. It can also be used for art supplies such as pencils and pens. I like how it is lined on the interior with a water-resistant material. However, it isn't a waterproof lining, so I recommend storing liquids that might leak in a separate bag. The two-compartment design is handy, as you can keep your items organized easily.

Lavishy has many fun designs, including print and applique options to suit a variety of tastes. I really enjoy this cat design, as I am a big cat fan and I like green as well. Cat fans may also be interested to see Lavishy offers other cat products, including jewelry such as this cute cat necklace. I was glad to see that the bag is made out of material that will biodegrade in 10 years. This is more environmentally-friendly that other vegan leathers, so you can still have a stylish look while being more "green." Granted, this isn't as natural as organic cotton or hemp, but Lavishy's designs are more fashionable than those made of the gentler materials.

Lavishy products are carried in many stores, but you'll have to email them for locations. I recommend ordering online for the best selection. If you're looking for a vegan leather gift for yourself or a lucky friend, I recommend checking out Lavishy's selection of bags and jewelry.
