Hands up if your makeup is perfectly and neatly stored in a designated area of your desk or bathroom?
That’s not your case? You’re not alone.
Honestly, I can’t remember the last time I was looking for my lipstick without having to shuffle my way through an overfilled bag of makeup (and the occasional socks, shower gel and toy cars from my kid).
Head straight to your this weeks TO DO list and add this as a priority: have organized makeup storage that even a makeup artist would be proud of!
Here are few of my favorite picks from the web.
1. Frame it
Finding the right color of nail polish can be a task if you have to dig through an arm deep bag full of them. Why not treat your nail polish collection as something to be part of and put it proudly on the display.
2. Trendy Glass Boxes
Glass boxes are the THING for 2016 and you’d be surprised how well they work for makeup storage. Combine them with a similar style tray on your vanity table to complete the look.
3. Professional Brush Holder
When you want something simple, yet practical, this brush box is a great solution – minimalist design with a practical division for your brushes.
4. Glass Jars
Add a bit of personality to your makeup display and DIY yourself these cute glass holders, not just for your makeup brushes!
5. Painted mason jars
Pretty, pretty, pretty! I would choose colors to match my bedroom!
6. Rotating Brush Storage
This looks like something a professional makeup artist would use – stick all your brushes on this rotating holder, the bottom tier also features a cover for the brush. Very neat and easy to access.
7. Vase for Brushes
If you’ve got as pretty brushes as these, why not put them on display proudly!
8. Candle Jar Organizer
Cheap and perfect hiding place for your lipsticks, lip balms and other small items that are hard to store in a drawer or makeup bag.
9. Candle Jars
Instagram is roaring about these. Reuse your stylish candle jars and turn them into practical and very insta-worthy brush holders.
10. Copper Holders
We are mad about copper this year! This idea is a great solution if you have limited space at home and clearing the surface will be so much easier!
11. Makeup Brush Holder
This see-through makeup storage solution got hugely popular after it has been featured in the background on the Kardashians’ show. Combine with clear vase to keep your brushes tidy and within easy reach.
12. Candle Sticks
No need to increase the fire hazards at home when you can reuse your candle holders as your makeup storage!
13. Candle Holders
14. Plant Pots
Get cheap stylish plant pots from Ikea and your brushes will be forever grateful.
15. Sushi Mat
You can buy purpose made makeup roll up bags, or make one yourself using a sushi mat and a strip of stretchy fabric or rubber to attach the brushes.
16. Cake Stand
Treat your makeup as a sweet treat and display them on a cake stand.
17. Animal Jars
With a bit of DIY, you can get a lot of cuteness out of boring glass containers.
18. Professional Storage Solutions
If you’re not up for DIY, turn to the trusted clear makeup storage with divided sections for all your makeup needs.
19. Stylish Glass Jars
We’re back at glass containers – use old jam jars with a sticker for an old fashioned, but very on-trend look.
20. Tray Display
Trays are becoming the must have for any vanity table, find one with a glass bottom and you’ve hit the jackpot!
21. Chest of Drawers
Purpose build departments, not just for makeup!
