I was getting tired of digging through a tiny little drawer to get to my nail clippers, file, tweezers, etc… so I repurposed a cheap magnetic knife holder into grooming tool storage. It’s so much neater and easier to access now.
From this… 👎
To this! 👍
And that got me thinking… what beauty storage hacks or ideas do you use at home/work/school? I’d love to exchange ideas and see what you do to keep your beauty products or tools organized. 🤔
Ah, that's cool @JoSometimes , be about what you teach about.
Err, don't hold your breath on me 😂🤞🏼🤷🏽♀️
@JoSometimes you nailed this project (pun intended)!! This looks great, well done! Safe and away from little hands is perfect, I have to keep mine away too because my daughter wants to get into everything I have 😅
Thanks @bakeamuffin! Honestly, if you didn’t suggest the storage box from Amazon, I wouldn’t have thought about this. Thank you again for this inspiration! 🙌
@JoSometimes I wish I had something helpful to contribute but I definitely have not perfected my organizational system for my make up, skin care etc..
What I do to keep it somewhat in order is the many make up bags and boxes I've collected over the years, house various things.
I have a bag for my lippies and a bag for sunscreens, a box for my palettes etc.. I just try to keep similar products close together. Masks, hair care , skin care, make up etc..
Everything goes into this sort of old, not to big Cradenza I have. It's an old dresser with an inclosed desk space that I've taken over and use to house all my beauty things 😅
@CynthieLu You basically have a filing system for your beauty things. I love that you repurposed old furniture for it too!
It has come in pretty handy 😄 @JoSometimes and it keeps everything in one place so it's easy to see what I have and I'd like to use that day.
I'd love to have an old vintage dressing table. The look of the old ones is something else 😉 One day, when I have more space and have room, I'd love to own one 😍
Good storage idea, @JoSometimes !
A few years ago, I turned one wall of my bathroom into a magnetic storage station. In the last year or 2, I've been very slowly moving my makeup and most brushes out of the bathroom to a new spot in my bedroom (using my old home office desk + hutch as a vanity). Some makeup and tools are still on my "magnetic" bathroom wall. Here's its current haphazard state:
The silver mesh rings holding the brow brush and Kimiko brow gel are actually pencil/pen holder magnets. I have several of them. When I wash makeup brushes, I hang them upside down in those pen holders to dry on the wall (unless the brush handles are too skinny for the pen holders to grab, of course). I have a few self-adhesive thick magnet sheets. I cut out magnets to stick to things, which I can then stick to a metal vertical surface. That's how those ColourPop Super Shock eyeshadows and the jar of By Terry setting powder are hanging on the wall.
My liquid lipsticks and glosses now live on the big pullout keyboard tray of my old work desk. I keep them in horizontal spice racks meant to be used in drawers:
Split into 3 photos because the pullout tray is very wide. These photos were originally posted in the ✨❄️December 2022 Challenge - 12 Days of Makeup Inventory - Show Off and Catalog Your Collection!!❄️✨ thread. All my solid bullet/crayon lipsticks live somewhere else.
And this year I moved all my lip liners and eyeliners to binder pages meant to hold pencils and pens. (No, I don't keep 'em in a binder. 😂) Here's one of the binder pages (front and back) I use for eyeliners; I've since bought a second one to hold the rest. A third one holds all my lip liners.
Oh, and for a while, this was my primary makeup bag for travel. It's a Kipling pencil case. I cut out the flap of additional pencil elastics so I can just use the lid to hold brushes without smushing them.
I'm currently creating new storage for some of my makeup brushes. Maybe I'll come back later and post that stuff, once it's finished.
And now that I think about it, there are a few old threads floating around about vanities and beauty spaces... first one that comes to mind is Show Me Your Beauty Collections!💗 which includes some people's storage ideas.
@WinglessOne Wow - @danielledanielle pointed me to this thread. I literally almost cried, looking at your beautifully organized products. I love exquisitely organized systems, even if I struggle to create them for myself. Love, love, love. 😍
Thank you @Westcoasty ! 😊 (I saw your organization thread before your reply here.) That bathroom wall's not exactly exquisitely organized anymore, since I've been randomly removing makeup from it to store elsewhere. But I look forward to repurposing it soon for skincare and hair products/accessories. Gotta get all my hair accessories better organized. And I'll still use that wall to dry freshly-washed makeup brushes.
@WinglessOne You are organization goals. 🙌 😀 I love how everything is laid out where you can easily see and grab whatever you need.
@JoSometimes This a very fun and satisfying thread idea 💡 🙏
Seeing the way everyone stores thier makeup, accessories skincare etc.. is sooooo satisfying 😌 💖
Thanks @CynthieLu ! Figuring out storage options that are compatible with my brain is (sometimes) fun! And it's always neat to see how other folks store their goodies.
I've been driving myself kinda nuts with nail polish swatch stick storage because I have to rummage through 'em in my current storage solution—but I also hated storing all those sticks on rings/screws for a couple reasons. Today I think I figured out how I need to store them for better efficiency. Gotta visit a couple stores tomorrow for supplies to make it happen.
@CynthieLu I have a few more ideas but I need some time to execute them. Do you have any hacks to make storage easier?
BRB running to the store to get a pencil case to store my eyeliners!!! GENIUS IDEA!
@FatCatFashion Oh, I hope you find one that meets your needs! Storing my pencil liners like this has been a game changer for me.
An entire magnetic wall is amazing @WinglessOne! And I’ve been wanting to find some of those flat pencil organizers. I like that you can see everything at a glance without having to rummage through.
@JoSometimes I bought my binder pages from Amazon:
Having to rummage through cups/bins/trays of liners is exactly why I bought these. Well, that and trying to convince myself I already have too many liners and don't need to buy more. 😄 Theoretically, being able to see them all like this will stop me from buying many more until I've used some of these up or they've gone bad. We'll see how that plays out.
If you don't have many liners, another good option is a pencil holder case that has elastic slots like these pages but also has room to hold other things—something similar to my Kipling 100 Pens Case (aka my old travel makeup kit). That'd be a good option to store, for instance, eyeliners, mini and quad eyeshadow palettes, and gel pot eyeliners, all in one place. In fact, if I start using my new brush book as a travel makeup case, I'll probably use my Kipling case to hold my Inglot AMC gel pot liners (if they'll all fit in there) and store liquid liner pens in the elastic slots on the lid.
Thanks @WinglessOne! I’ve only checked dollar stores for these but they only have the pouch ones.
I love that you did this @JoSometimes , it makes utilizing everything so much easier!!
I recently organized a drawer at my bathroom sink for my most-used products to make doing my makeup more stream lined and I’m so happy with the results! I just switch out what I intend to use every few days from my big stash storage and voila.
I grabbed a clear organizer from ikea and I’m loving it so far, I think I’ll order a variety pack from Amazon for other drawers.
It's a beautiful drawer set up 💕 @bakeamuffin Good idea, rotating in the items on you want to use that day or week or whatever 😀 I don't know about you but if I don't see it I sometimes forget about it 😅
