Organise your makeup!

Happy Sunday afternoon, everyone! 
Now I don't know about you but I feel so much better when everything is organised and clean. However, I am a lazy person and I leave everything in a mess everywhere! But once I get round to it, I actually love having everything sorted and organised. Especially when it's things I use everyday like make-up!

Now, usually I have eyeliners and lipsticks all over the place.. in my bags, boxes, on a table somewhere. I didn't have it all in one place and that needed to change!

So I got my act together and sorted through all of my make-up. I had a massive clear out and threw out make-up that was years old or not used anymore. If anyone has any recommendations on what to do with make-up that has been unopened, then please let me know. I'd love to donate make-up if directed to the right place (in the UK). 

I went online and found this lovely little make-up organiser on Amazon. 



It is made from clear acrylic and it's actually pretty good quality. It's small enough to neatly fit on your make-up table or chest of drawers. It comes with 12 lipstick holders and different compartments big enough for your foundations, powders, primers etc. It also comes with three drawers that fit most things in it, such as:

 Eyeliners (both glitter and normal), stick eyeshadows, eye pencils.

Mascaras, single eyeshadow and eyeliner pots.

Lipliners, lipglosses and lipsticks that don't fit in the holders.

It really is handy for keeping all of your everyday makeup together but it doesn't have much space to fit bronzers or contouring powders which I don't use. It also doesn't fit big eyeshadow palettes like the Urban Decay Naked palettes or anything that size. Small, single eyeshadow pots or anything like that are okay if you arrange them correctly. 

Curver Faux Rattan Dresser Storage Pot - Small (Perfect For Make-Up Brushes)
  I also bought a small pot for my brushes to keep those together as well. 

You can get the make-up organiser for just £25.99
& the pot for £3.90. 

Have you got something like this? How organised are you with your makeup?
Thankyou for reading.

    1. You don't have to get the full organiser I don't think, you can buy the compartments separately and I think the lipstick holders is one of them. :) x

  7. I use a plastic thing that you put in a drawer and it separates it into sections. I got it from ikea and it's pretty good! Next thing I'm looking for is a cute cup like the one you have so I can store my brushes.

  21. I keep the products I use most of the time in the acrylic organizers, while the other products I store in old Glossybox boxes. Have to arrange everything weekly though, most of the times when I do my makeup I`m in a hurry and never bother to put everything back in its place.
