Sneak Peek at my Makeup Collection & Storage/Organization
Hello, Beautiful!
I decided to do a little teaser/sneak peek post about my makeup collection and storage/organization. Here are some photos... plus a sneak peek inside just a couple of the drawers. Full post coming very soon, plus a video! :)
Holy Moly!! I have never seen so much makeup before in my entire life! I have no room to talk though because I'm a big lotion/body spray/perfume collector!!
OHMYGEE, MAC, mufe, CD, and nars!!! I want them all, thanks for sharing something like this. it inspired me a lot, I need to organize my room too > . <
Nice collection but can you tell where you purchased those 10 drawers storage/organizers please. I need something that like that for my ever so growing stash...lol
@ kimmydadiva: I will go into detail about all the storage I use and where you can get everything. But they are not sold that way (as 10 drawers) they are 7-drawer rolling carts - 3 large drawers and 4 smaller. I just customized them for my storage needs. Check back in a couple days when I have my collection post up. I hope to have it up by the end of the weekend, but trying to get it up even sooner than that!
OMG! I would die to have this kind of space to devote to my makeup and polish collections. I live in a tiny beach side cottage that only has 2 drawers in the kitchen and the rest of the house has tiny little closets in the 2 rooms - nothing in the little hall and nothing in the living room. I am crammed in here as it is and cannot any longer hide my plastic boxes and zip lock baggies of polishes! My makeup/skin care I have to stay on top of and clean out chronically or the little cupboard I do have it in I cannot find things and what is there is falling out at me and the floor which drives me nuts. I am about ready to go through and purge some of the Bobbie Brown cream gel liners I don't wear - I love the formula but I don't need all the pots I have now. Last thing I purged was almost all my lipsticks and glosses because my lips pealed for 3 yrs straight - I found it was the products...now I stick to the 2 color products that don't make me peel and a couple balms that work the best for me. But work in the cupboard is always an ongoing project as I have time and know there is room in that week's trash can or the products are good enough for donation.
When did you start this collection? Many products look new. Safe to assume this is your vice ;). Emmaculate collection. As a mother as well I am finding it challenging finding time to put my makeup on. When do you do it?
@Lisa Short ridge: I've been into makeup and "collecting" for about 10 years now - but I don't like to keep too many old things. A lot is newer (in the last two years) but I also get sent products too so it's not all just me buying them. And friends/family buy me makeup or give gift cards to Sephora or Ulta. But yes - makeup is my vice and what I choose to spend my money on. I don't care about brand name clothes or shoes or purses and I don't go to the salon more than once every year or two, so for me, it's all about makeup!
All comments are set for me to approve them before they post. I do this so I can read each & every one, answering any questions that may be in a comment. Please share your thoughts and questions below :)
