do this: organize my makeup

A few weeks ago, my friend and fellow blogger, Mila, wrote about how she stores her makeup. Inspired by her organization, I decided it was time to give my makeup the overhaul it desperately needed. I still think that I need to pare down my makeup further but for now at least it visually looks much better.

I decided since I use my makeup every day, it’s best to have it within easy reach. So I bought a nice case to display it and keep it on my countertop. I put the items I reach to in the morning as well as lipstick because it came with a nice little space to hold them.

Since I have a lot of makeup (or so it seemed once I put everything on display) I split it in two. I put the makeup I wear less often in this container and store it underneath the sink. I feel much better now that my makeup feels more manageable. Still have some work to do, but so far so good. How do you organize your makeup? I’d love to hear.

    I seriously need to organize my makeup – it is a mess, I love the display you bought everything is well within reach and perfect for everything.

    Thanks so much! Luckily my husband doesn't mind that I now officially take up the whole counter. I also realized that my day-to-day stuff is all I really use, so I got rid of a ton of stuff I was unnecessarily holding on to for years! The things you find when you clean, lol

    p.s. LOVE your blog! I think I saw you at Lucky FABB felt like such a fan πŸ™‚ thanks so much for stopping by!

    xoxo, Kasia

    ooh i love this!! that organizer is so cute! It displays your stuff so perfectly! and it's surprising how much more of my makeup I use now that it's organized, when it's displayed nicely I don't forget about it! πŸ˜‰
