Indestructable Makeup Jar
Hello ladies,
Does anyone know of an indestructible travel jar for foundation? I've tried several different ones, from places like CVS/BedBathBeyond, etc., but the lids have all cracked after only a trip or two.
Thanks in advance!

depends on how much you need for a trip!
I only use foundation as concealer, so I ordered some screw-on contact lens cases and use one or two of those for storing foundation, depending on how long the trip is. Much more robust than your average plastic case.
If you need more than that, I would strongly recommend the Nalgene jars, which you can get at Container Store, REI or online. Totally leakprook, go through the dishwasher if you change products, etc. My only complaint is that I've gone pretty minimal with my toiletries, and most of their jars are too big for me, but I think most people think they're quite reasonable!
I also have had luck using printmaking supplies for 1/2 oz size squeeze bottles for things like moisturizers, from places like Dick Blick.
