10 Storage Ideas for your Makeup
Keeping your makeup organized and at hand can sometimes be a bit of a hassle. It’s something you use daily and need it to be accessible, not stored in boxes in top shelves. Many of us don’t have vanities or designated spaces in our homes so we can have all of our makeup, but not to worry. There are many solutions to organizing and storing our makeup. Here are a few ideas and tips for you.
1. It is important to keep your makeup divided into different groups according to its functions. I highly recommend using clear containers and drawer dividers because its easier to see what you have, makes it look cleaner, and keep it organized.
2. You don’t need to buy expensive makeup organizers. You can always use utensil holders for kitchen drawers, mason jars, empty candle bases, desk organizers, etc. And if you want to buy the clear acrylic dividers Hautelook.com always has some on sale, and Amazon.com
3. You can use a magazine holder to store your hair curling wand and straighteners or hang some hooks on the inner side of the of the cabinet’s door. Another cool idea is to use file organizers or napkin holders to store all kind of pallets.
4. Jars can be huge life savers, there are so many uses for them. You can store your lipsticks by separating them by finishes and shades. Another great use is for your makeup brushes and lipliners and eyeliners.
5. If you’re a lipstick fan who always struggles to find the right color among so many, organize them with the help of a basket with tall borders, or a clear lipstick divider. Don’t forget to put them upside down so you can see the shades and not have to open each one.
6. Here I go again with the back door storage. In this case, if your counter space in the bathroom or your vanity is too small to store all of your makeup, use a bathroom organizer that hangs on your door. The good news with these, is that they are not expensive and they don’t take up any space. You can also store your hair products in these hanging bathroom organizers.
7. I highly recommend spice racks for nail polish. It keeps them organized and at hand, but if you don’t have wall space, you an always use jars or clear nails polish dividers for your drawer. You can also use a pencil box to store your nail file, cutter, and all those nail tools.
8. Another cool idea is to use a cake stand to place all of your perfumes. You can decorate the stand to give it a specific look or leave it as is, to give it a clean, modern look.
9. You can always use the inside of the cabinet door to store all sorts of things. You can place all sorts of dividers and desk accessories with double sided tape, to store what you need most at hand. You can also place hanging small buckets or cans with your brushes, lipglosses, lip lines, or eye liners.
10. Use a handy beauty cart to store all kind of products. Label each level and separate them by their use. You can also use dividers to make sure everything is kept in their place.
