Make-Up Storage and Organization

It has taken me a long time to perfect my make-up collection, and goodness, I'm still working on it as we speak.  I am always hunting for that perfect foundation, the most pigmented and blendable eyeshadows, and the make-up brush I can't do my make-up without!

The way that I organize my make-up collection in my "dressing room" as I call it (aka our guest room, haha) is extremely important to me. Looking at a wonderfully organized make-up collection gives me pure joy! It's an odd fascination, but I adore it!  If you have a lot of make-up, why not organize it so that you can see all of it and actually be reminded to use it? This is why I've taken the time to find organizers and pieces that make organizing and storing make-up easy and effective.

I really have the most trouble organizing my samples as well as lipstick and lipglosses!  As many of you know, I am obsessed with lipstick (specifically pinky-nude shades which are currently taking over my purse at the moment but anyways...).  I am constantly adding to my collection (Ryan loves it obvi), and the space has just become so limited.  I'm still working on the most practical way to see and use all of my lipsticks and lipglosses!  If you have any recommendations please feel free to comment!

Here are some pictures of my make-up collection and the way I've chosen to store a few things! 

Vanity Dressing Table | Chest | Organizers

This is about as clean as it gets people...

Whats a make-up vanity unless it's rough around the edges? *scrubs concealer off of glass* :)

The extra drawers on my vanity are filled with eyebrow products, concealers, lipbalms, single eyeshadows, mascara, and small foil samples! 

These are my babies, people.  My most favorite make-up product -- foundation!!

Just in case anyone wanted a close up of my dirty brushes, here ya go...

Recycled Anthropologie candles are perfect to hold brushes!

These are only my favorite "higher end" lipglosses.  I wasn't brave enough to photograph all of them...

As you can see, I have a thing for Chanel and Buxom glosses -- nothing compares! They are the best.

The Alex chest from Ikea is perfect for organizing, especially since it has different sized drawers.

These are a few of my blushes and powder products.  I have separate drawers for my bronzer's and highlighter's!

Thank you for taking the time to read my post!

Another great option for any of your storage needs would be self-storage through a company such as MakeSpace!  Sometimes not everything can fit in your house. :)
