makeup storage

Just curious…how do you ladies store your cosmetics and other beauty products? i.e, do you put most of the hair and body cream prodcuts in the bathroom, while makeup in the dresser?

I’m the type that if i dont see it i won’t use it…therefore I like to store all my makeup on the counter/dresser top. Everything I have, all the cases are covered in dust/hair (both of our hairs fall when we comb/brush :() and it looks so gross… I dont like to cover or hide my things away, so i’d like better ideas to store my makeup.

Re: makeup storage

maybe put them in a clear box/bin?

i store mine in a clear plastic box in a drawer in teh bathroom since both hubs and i like clean counters. This also makes it easy to clean the counters warna kabhi bhi na saff houn :D

Re: makeup storage

That's a good idea, Ira. I like clean counters too and need things to be cleaned easily so I put hair/body products in bathroom and makeup in drawer.

Re: makeup storage

I use those stackable clear bins you get at Target.

Eye shadows/primers/brushes for shadows/etc in one bin

Lipstick/gloss/chapsticks/stains/etc in another bin

Powders/blushers/foundations/concealors in one bin

I have drawer dividers that fit-in to my drawers. I put my concealers and foundations in one. Mascara, liners and colored pencils/kohl's in one. Blushers and tints and then all my lipsticks/lipliners/glosses.

My makeup carry-case is so much more organized though.. the foundations are arranged from lightest to darkest and so are the lipsticks.

Re: makeup storage

I put my makeup in a huge vanity case and some on my dresser.

Gina can we see a pic of your makeup please? :@:

Re: makeup storage

I’m the same Sara. Out of sight = Out of use.

I have a countertop drawer tower.

Kinda like this but this seems really tiny. So I have one drawer for eye related products (concealer, mac paint, brightening pen, mascaras), another for single eyeshadows, another for lipsticks etc. Most of my shadows are mac and therefore in palettes so those are all put away except my everyday one.

Re: makeup storage

I have 2 drawers. One with all my palettes and makeup sets, the other with everything else thrown in - very unorganised. My jewellery, shoes and handbags on the other hand :@: so very organised. I keep all my face washes, creams, masks in my bathroom. Hair products and perfumes on my dresser.

Re: makeup storage

I have 2 boxes, one that has all of my makeup in it and another with all the other stuff i.e. hair products, moisturiser etc. I used to keep mine out on the dresser, but they just got really dusty too, so they're better stored away.

Wow Gina, your're really organised!
