How do you organize your beauty supplies, face lotions, makeup....?

I have plenty of drawers that I can stuff everything in but then I forget they’re there. Out of sight out of mind. i love my beauty products but I need to be more organized. Can you all share how you keep it all organized?

Mine is so disorganized lol i always plan on getting those plastic drawers from the comtainer store or target, but i never remember. Right now all my makeup is in separate clear giant makeup bags lol so ugly and messy

Re: How do you organize your beauty supplies, face lotions, makeup…?

At my first attempt at being organized with my precious beauty products and makeup essentials and putting a lot of thought into improving myself, I got this from amazon, drum roll

I have those bags that you’re talking about but it is a case of out of sight out of mind.
It keeps everything organized sure but out of sight. I forget what I have and every wonderful product I really wanted with those things.

I think they’re only good when you’re traveling.

Ok, i’m a nut when it comes to organization, total neat freak here. For starters, i don’t buy anything if i don’t need it. So i have one concealer, one foundation, that’s it.

After that, i bought one of those clear acrylic drawers see here ---->>> clear acrylic drawers - Google Search (no idea how to insert an image here)

I then put all my eye shadows in one, all my lipsticks/ lip glosses in the other. I have a drawer for compacts or sets and a drawer for eyeliners because that’s my jam. lol

The advantage of that is, i can first, see what i have, second, all the categories are put together so when say i’m doing my eye makeup, i just need to pull out the eye shadow drawer and i have everything right there to pick from. The problem of forgetting stuff that’s there is fixed :slight_smile: (my ocd has a whole other level because the drawers are organized alphabetically…yes.. i know i have a problem :stuck_out_tongue: )

I also have a whole bunch of makeup brushes (any one else loving Real Techniques?) which i have a brush holder for. Very handy. I don’t display my makeup on the dressing table. I’ve emptied out a shelf in my cupboard (it’s a considerably big shelf) and use that as my makeup shelf. One side has face creams, deodorants, perfume etc and other side has the acrylic box with organized make up. This way i know where everything is.

So yea.. that’s how i do it :slight_smile:

I organise mine in those drawers. I’m a makeup junkie so they are a life saver for my already overcrowding and chaotic vanity!

Re: How do you organize your beauty supplies, face lotions, makeup…?

Pull-out plastic storage drawers that you can just place on top of your dresser. They’re clear too so it’s easily seen and not forgotten. You can pick one up from any DIY, stationery or supermarket store.

Re: How do you organize your beauty supplies, face lotions, makeup…?

I put all my main makeup (as in the stuff I use the most/newest stuff/fav’s/daily things) in clear plastic drawers and containers on my dressing table - all from Muji. But you can also find the same type of stuff in TK Maxx or online on Ebay or Amazon (I’m in the UK btw so I don’t know what store you have where you are).

And then I have one draw where I keep all my other stuff, and its all organised by one random organiser draw I got from Ikea. I would say - have a good look around for these things. Buy only how much you will need (if you buy more than you need, you will be tempted to fill it up with more makeup lol). And then go through a lllll your stuff, chuck the unused (or give it to fam or friends like I do) and organise the rest.

Can you post a pic of the drawers you use? I think I have something like that but I only have two of them. Do you label each drawer? Because even if it’s clear it still would be a bit out of sight…do you use them for face lotions too?

BEST.ORGANIZATION.EVER!!

No mention.

Re: How do you organize your beauty supplies, face lotions, makeup…?

I use Ikea’s Skubb drawer divider. It helps a lot for compacts/nails polishes/ eyeshadow palettes.
And use office pen holders for lip pencils/eyepencils, so that I know where they are and they can be used.
A food container for lipsticks, and a small acrylic makeup organizer for everyday makeup.

I am always confused and constantly living in fear for the safety of my makeup products from my kids. So over the winter Avon had a kick-ass deal on this beauty organizer ($13) - Yah so I bought like 5 and Its working out beautifully thus far. I keep these on the top shelf in my walk-in closet, only to be seen but not touched by my kids :smiley:

Re: How do you organize your beauty supplies, face lotions, makeup…?

I use the IKEA Alex 9 drawer (everyone raves about it, but it’s honestly amazing!)
The first 3 drawers have makeup in it (categorised)
4th drawer has hairbands/bobby pins etc
5th drawer has nail stuff and large palettes
6th drawer has eyelashes/foundations
7th and 8th drawers have skin care/brush rolls etc
9th drawer has hair tools
For the top of my vanity, I use Muji acrylic drawers and glass pots to store brushes and eyeliners
Then there’s an extra stand where my everyday skin care goes

Don’t get me started on my traincase… lol
