Makeup Storage: How I Store Mine

When you're limited on space, storing your makeup can prove to be a difficult task. Although I have a decent sized office, it's also where I workout. Because of that, I don't want extra furniture taking up space. My desk and shelf already do enough of that. My dresser is actually in my closet, which is good because I put all of my makeup and hair tools on top of it. 

If you're looking for an easy affordable way to store your makeup, that is easily accessible and doesn't require much space, this is for you! 

I got these photo storage cases from Hobby Lobby. I love them! I got each case for about $25, with a 40% off coupon! That may seem like a lot, but for the amount of makeup I have, it's a great deal. Each have 16 smaller compartments inside where I separate my makeup by category.

In the box on the left, I store all of single eyeshadows, liners, mascaras, lashes, and half of my face products. The box on the right contains all of my lipsticks, lipgloss, lip balms, and the second half of my face products!

For all of my palettes and brushes/tools, I use this little 3 container storage set from Target. I got it during the "back to school: college" time. It's the perfect size for all of my palettes and I love that I can basically disassemble it and take with me only what I need.

The bottom container holds 2 Z Palettes, and both of my Urban Decay Naked palettes.

The second container holds a mini Z palette, 3 mark. palettes, 2 Avon palettes, 1 Sephora smoky eye palette, and 2 tinted moisturizers from mark. that wouldn't fit in my bigger cases.

The top container holds all of my brushes and tools! Minus the ones I keep in my everyday bag of course.

    1. Thank you so much for your love! I ordered my Z palettes off of ebay! They were cheaper, so I was able to get 3. They company I got them from through ebay said they were "defective", but when I got them, the were perfectly fine!
