Today's Post is 'How I Organize my makeup'. Let me start by saying that I do not have a huge makeup collection like a lot of bloggers/youtubers, but still, to a person who is not into makeup, this may seem a lot of makeup :). When I started blogging I was getting in the mode of hoarding makeup, however gradually I am trying to control it..Anways, enough of rambling, let's move on to the good stuff...
I use the below pictured makeup cube (with 5 drawers) for most of my stuff. This is a stationery cabinet available from OfficeWorks. Lots of fellow Australian bloggers and YouTubers use this.
This is how my dresser top looks. I have the cube on one side and the remaining stuff (lipsticks, brushes, hair products, jewelry displays and combs) that I use on a day to day basis on the remaining side.
In the first drawer, I keep my most used eyeshadow singles, trios and quads.
In the second drawer, I keep gel liners, eye primers, face primer, concealers and the eyshadow quads that I do not use often.
In the third drawer, I keep blushes. I have tried to organize them on color (starting with first column, neutrals, pinks, peaches, and dusty/rosy pinks)
In the fourth drawer, I keep face powders, highlights and bronzer.
In the fifth drawer, I keep glosses and the revlon balm stains and the one and only foundation I have :)
The top of my cube stores my eyeliners, mascaras and a bb cream. I am really fond of colored eyeliners.
I store my lipsticks in this storage thingy that I got from Target, these are very easily available. I store the bold and bright lippys not suitable for office in one of the dresser shelves, as I do not use them often.
I keep my makeup brushes in these pencil cups, I got for a dollar from Kmart.
Most of my stuff is actually stored in the cube and on the top of the dresser. Additionally, I keep some large palettes and my backup makeup in the dresser shelf.
There you have it, my makeup organization, storage and collection. How do you store yours ?
PS - This is not a bragging/ show off post, we bloggers enjoy makeup so also enjoy the storage ideas of the same.

Deletelove this post! the clear file drawer is such a clever idea, i have about half the amount of make up + tools as you do, but was having trouble figuring out how to organise it all until now.
ReplyDeleteI've pinned this post to pinterest so I'll remember to do this soon. :)
