Inexpensive Makeup Storage

Soooooooooo... I'm in the midst of re-organising my makeup room turned junk room and I decided my daily makeup organisation tray thing was JUST NOT WORKING.  I have been really wanting one of the 'clear cubes' that so many beauty gurus and celebrities have, but I really can't justify spending like $120 on one. I know, it's ridiculous!  Anyway, moving on.  

So, being my determined and stubborn self, I wasn't going to give up until I got something similar.  I started thinking outside the box...literally.  Then I uncovered my paperwork draws amidst my cleaning frenzy and thought they'd be perfect for makeup.

I immediately drove myself to the nearest Officeworks and picked up the gorgeous beauty below for...wait for it...$16.96!!!!!!!!!!



It keeps all my makeup AND brushes dust-free. I have one draw for each type of thing - Face, Face Powders, Eyes, Lips and Brushes.  What I love about it is that it's clear so I can see everything (although, it was very hard to walk away from the very hot purple one) and that I can store my palettes in a letter holder on top and other bits and pieces I used frequently.

I have one of these babies below holding all my other makeup for my freelance kit and my makeup kit is always half packed with things that I never take out and use on myself.

I hope this helped someone also in a makeup organisation rut.  If you'd like to see whats in my personal makeup stash draws, the products and brushes I like, then please let me know below.

  1. Oh wow, I've got one of these as well! They're so handy to keep everything organised. I used to keep everything so randomly around the house, in the bathroom, on my desk, in a handbag! But since I've got one of these, it's so easy to keep everything together! :)
