With an ever-expanding makeup collection, it was important to me to find a way to store my makeup so that I could easily access all of my products and I could separate them into categories. A firm favourite among bloggers are the Muji drawers - so I bought myself two of the two-drawer Muji drawers and I stacked one on top of the other.
On top of my drawers I display my perfumes and my current favourite foundations so I can easily grab them when I need them. In the first drawer I keep my bases and other face products. This usually changes with the seasons because in the Summer I go for darker and more matte foundations and concealers (maybe even a BB cream), whereas in the Winter, my skin is paler and I wear a more dewy foundation. Currently I have my Benefit POREfessional primer, Hoola bronzer, Rockateur blusher, and The Balm Mary-Lou Manizer highlighter in this draw, along with some foundations and BB creams that I'm saving for Summer.
In the next drawer down I keep some of my eye products, such as mascara, eye liner, and brow pencils. At the moment I'm loving using the Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara on top of the Benefit Roller Lash mascara because this combination really lengthens and curls my lashes. Whenever I want to make my eye makeup I bit more dramatic I apply the Kat Von D Tattoo Liner along my lash line. Also, I've been using the Benefit Gimme Brow gel so much recently because it makes my eyebrows so much more defined and fuller.
The third drawer down contains all of my eyeshadow palettes. I mainly use the Urban Decay Naked palettes and this doesn't change throughout the year as they contain all of the shades I need year-round. However, I'm considering buying the Too Faced Sweet Peach palette for this Summer because it contains brighter colours than the Naked palettes.
Lastly, I keep all of my lip products in the bottom drawer. I have my MAC lipsticks and lip liners, which are my most used lip products, as well as my NYX lipsticks and some Topshop ones. My brighter colours are usually only worn during the Summer months and I save the darker colours for Autumn/Winter. How do you store your makeup?
Those clear boxes are really a great option for make up storage! I really need to get one :)

DeleteYou are so organized with your makeup! I'd love to put together a similar collection and store it in a pretty way like yours, but at the moment I just have no space for makeup so I keep it all in a small cardboard box.

DeleteI would so love storage like this, I love the look of it! Right now I have Ikea Alex drawers! which are just perfect for keeping makeup in!
ReplyDeleteErin || MakeErinOver
I seen so many bloggers that have the Ikea Alex drawers and they look so nice! x
DeleteI have a short metal storage system from Ikea (Ikea HELMER) to store my makeup. Even though modern isn't my style, I find these are more me than the Alex drawers, and just the right size for my makeup collection, which I try to edit down so old expired makeup doesn't hang around for too long!
ReplyDeletewww.withlovekatie.com
I try to sort out my makeup regularly too, otherwise I end up with loads of products that are out of date! x
DeleteLoveee your acrylic organizer! i've always wanted one. But first i need to buy myself a new vanity table ( i gave mine away when i was moving ).
ReplyDeleteI really want a vanity table too - at the moment I keep this on top of a chest of drawers x
DeleteHehe once you get your vanity table, you'll feel so much more complete! At least i did! Hehe, i also have my makeup organizer on top of my chest drawers and inside.
