Makeup Storage

I don't know about you guys, but I love to watch videos and/or read blogs about makeup storage. I am always looking for new ideas and have learned a lot by watching vids and reading other blogs.


Here are some pictures of part of my current makeup storage. It's not perfect, but it works for now. I pretty much know where everything is..well sorta kinda! HA! I am using two dressers to store almost everything. If only I could just take over the entire closet....=0)

I use a lot of little drawer organizers which you can find just about anywhere - Walmart, Target, KMart, etc. I have even found a lot of useful containers at the Dollar Store. I am all about finding a good bargain!

My dream is to have a makeup room of my own, but for now; the closet and dressers will do. I gotta get rid of these kids! They take up too much space! LOL!!

Makeup Collection and Storage

So my makeup collection is absolutely ridiculous! What I mean is...it's freakin huge and I have several storage areas for it. What ends up happening to me is that since I have stuff everywhere, I forget about the products I already have. I go out to Sephora, Ulta, or MAC or the drugstore and then end up coming home with something I already have. Does that ever happen to you? I hate that!

Last Sunday night, my husband and kids were out the house. I swear....it was the greatest night ever! Finally some peace and quiet! I did my nails and watched Youtube videos about....guess what? Makeup Collection and Storage videos. There were so many great ideas, but there was one that stood out the most. I've posted a link to the vid as I would like to give this fellow youtuber credit for the idea. I was going to embed the video, but embedding was disabled on this vid!

Anyway, it was as if the heavens opened up! All of a sudden, I heard harps and a choir in the background! ALELUYAH!!!! This is it! That is exactly what I need for my makeup collection! It's a media storage armoire! I wanted to go out and buy it right away! I am going to buy one this weekend at Meijer. For those who don't have a Meijer store; it's a lot like Walmart.

I can't wait to put it together and organize all of my stuff. I will be sure to post Before and After pictures when it's all complete.

Talk to you soon!!
