Finally, finally, FINALLY! I'm sharing my makeup storage! When my friends are at my house, and they aren't swooning over Charlie, they are in the Beauty Room (aka my bathroom. Whatevs). I admit, I was really nervous about posting this, because I know how people can be! But everyone has her thing she collects, and mine happens to be makeup! I'm only sharing makeup, so skin care, hair care, nail polish, etc. won't be shown, but let me know if you're interested in those! Now, onto the tour!

More sneak peeks! Please watch the video for details! |
And once again, these are what I use to store my stuff:
one--I keep my lip crayons, lip glosses, and other products in these Muji 5-drawer boxes. These can be stacked and they are good for the price.
two--My single and small shadow palettes, highlighters, primers, BB & CC creams, and more are stored in my Beauty Cube. It is pricey, but amazing quality.
three--I have one drawer in my bathroom, so I use drawer organizers for lipsticks, bronzers, concealers, eyeliners, mascaras, blushes, and more.
four--This is random, but I store my false lashes in these pill containers. This is one of those delightful happy-accidents. I was traveling, didn't want to throw out my used-once lashes, and so I popped them in there out of necessity. And that's what I've done ever since. Try it!
five--I've used letter organizers in the past for my palettes, but as my collection grew, I wanted something bigger and more durable. Enter this desktop mail organizer from the Container Store. I keep my makeup sponges and Beauty Blenders in there too!
six--I store my eye and face brushes in empty candle containers--something I shared over two years ago on the blog. To keep the brushes upright, inside each container are filler beads--these are found in the floral department at craft stores.
Oh my goodness! I wish I have half the makeup you have..I would be in makeup heaven! LOL!
ReplyDeleteAwesome organizational scheme, Elle!
ReplyDeleteI posted mine today too! Just as a blog post for now though, until I start filming again. You have a great collection and I love your storage! I wish my bathroom sink was that big haha, mine is super small. Perks of living in an apartment I guess. I really need that clear desktop mail organizer, it would look so much better than my brown one I store my palettes in! Just subbed to your channel, too! :)

Wow now I know why your friends love playing in there! haha Bravo for keeping it all organized. I don't have a lot of makeup but feel totally disorganized. Usually stick to what's in my makeup bag by my sink. Should probably explore more and see what I have :p
ReplyDeleteThanks for this awesome tour. Elle:) You have such a fab collection. Those beauty cubes from Amazon rock! I want!
ReplyDeleteThis is so awesome! I love how organized you are and how it all looks. I wish I had all that and knew how to use it all! ;) Thanks for sharing all of this!
ReplyDeleteLove the storage! I need to organize my stuff better.
ReplyDeleteI really love how organized everything is!! I would of never thought to use the empty BBW candles for brushes or letter organizer for pallets!! Thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteAmazing makeup collection, Elle!! I love how perfectly organized it is. My favs esp are ur lip products ;)

Your collection is more interesting and better equipped than the ones in beauty stores! Really enjoyed this tour. I am very minimalistic when it comes to make up, but I can absolutely understand your girls who cannot wait to get their hands on all these lovely things and play. Would enjoy it very much, too. :)
ReplyDeleteBeyond jealous of your makeup collection!!! And your storage system is impressive! This made me realize I need to step up my game - I think starting with those Muji boxes :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteGirl! You are so well organized!
ReplyDeleteYou have a great collection, mine is insane too! But like you said, it's just our thing :) I'm a little worried about once we move to FL, I know I'm going to have less space so I'm not sure what I'm going to do! I can't wait to watch your video at home tonight for the full tour!
ReplyDeleteMy god, you're so organized, you're killing me!
ReplyDeleteI wish I was half as organized as you.
I realised you're the only beauty blog I'm following and I realised that's because I'm a total noob when it comes to make up.
So I was wondering if you'd maybe make any section on make up for beginners, how to get started with make up, what are the most needed essentials and such :)
And also, if you wanna review something, I'd love to see a review on Michelle Phan's EM line!

Oh my gosh, if we had that much, it would be such a mess. So impressed with how organized this is. Totally rocking it!!

Love your storages! Can't wait to watch the video later, makeup storage and collections are my favorite videos haha!
ReplyDeleteI don't have half the amount you have but I am so impressed with your storage!! So organized and easier to find. I tend to have it mostly in a storage box and need to dig for what I need.
ReplyDeleteThis video is very inspiring. I am def running out of space for my makeup and need to invest in more storage. Only problem is that I have no where to put it. I def like how you separate each type of product. Makes you not have to go digging for stuff. I need the envelope holder!
ReplyDeleteI need something like this. Right now I use storage drawers... like the Rubbermaid kind. I mean, it works... but it ain't pretty! haha
ReplyDeleteI currently have a candle in my freezer waiting to be turned into a Qtip and Cotton ball holder haha! It is the best way to upcylce them!!

It's SO fun to see how everyone stores their makeup! I too fear some sort of "OMG - you REALLY OWN THAT MUCH MAKEUP" backlash, but I feel you - everyone loves and collects something and that's ok! I loved your tour. I'm sure all of your friends also LOVE visiting your makeup room! I'm betting your bathroom is a pretty popular spot to get ready before going out! :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWOW! I've never seen anything like it! I need to buy more make-up!
ReplyDeletexo, Megan Ann
I looooove the space you've created! I just want to come over and PLAY! :)

That is very impressive! It makes it very easy to use everything. I have to do my makeup at work, so I carry my most used stuff in a fancy cabodle box :-)
ReplyDeleteYour makeup storage is amazing! I would be so overwhelmed... And excited to get ready everyday! :)
ReplyDeleteLoved your video. You have a great collection, and I love your hair!

Great collection! I love seeing how other makeup junkies store everything. xoxo Lauren
ReplyDeleteI need to get my makeup room setup and film one of these videos. I currently have all my makeup in there it's just all over the room LOL.
ReplyDeleteSO impressed with your makeup collection -- i figured you had quite a bit ;) love the storage compartments! xo jillian - cornflake dreams
ReplyDeleteWow. Superb collection :-)

Great storage ideas. Mine is a bit more scattered, but I try hard to keep it organized. It is hard when you are in a rush to put stuff back exactly where it belongs.
ReplyDeletearen't acrylic holders the best?! love the beauty cube, but too expensive for me :)
ReplyDeleteOh I love watching makeup tours on youtube and I'm so happy you did one. I really like your idea of switching up your makeup for spring and summer makeup, I don't own too much makeup so I can't really do that, but if I did own more I would definitely do that.
