Glam, beauty, and makeup has long been an obsession of mine. But when I felt most glam, I wasn’t wearing fancy clothes or high heels; I just felt beautifully “ready”! On the contrary, the times I felt the least prepared were the worst! It affected my confidence levels when I needed to show up with boldness and certainty.

After a long flight from the East Coast to my home state California, I needed to freshen up my hair and makeup but didn’t want to use that tiny airplane bathroom; who would?! I was scrambling, trying to do my makeup and make sure my hair was in place with a small compact mirror while holding my phone light close to my face. And yes...it was absolutely as graceless as it sounds, LOL!

I immediately started googling and looking up “makeup bags with lights.” After searching and finding nothing that had what I needed, I got inspired! A few years later, and here we are! Kimmy Kouture Beauty released the FIRST and ONLY travel makeup case with LED lights!
