makeup collection & storage

~ First of all, I am NOT bragging or anything… This is highly requested by a lot of my loyal subscribers so I’m simply just showing/doing the request.
~ Second, I bought most of my makeup with my own money. Others were sent by companies and or/were presents from friends & relatives.
~ Third, I’ve been collecting makeup for almost 3 years now. (Started end of my frosh year of college)
~ And last but NOT the least, YES I KNOW that I have probably “TOO MUCH” makeup.. but I love it… it’s an addiction (I admit) but it also makes me happy and I just really do love LOVE LOVE makeup! You probably noticed that I don’t have a lot of high-end makeup and that’s because I’m a college student (that should explain a lot right there) AND I believe that you DON’T have to spend so much money on makeup! Drugstore brands/makeup are ALSO AMAZING!!!! Sometimes just AS GOOD/GREAT as the high-end ones!

Organization Tips

1. Separate Products: For me, I have all my “face brushes” on the left side and then, all the “eye brushes” on the other side. Also, I always try to keep face products, eyes, and lips together.
2. Plastic Drawers Storage: These are very handy and cheap! You can get them just about anywhere an they come in different colors.
3. Acrylic Containers: You can find some at Folica.Com. These looks so nice and very convenient; keeps your things organize :)
4. In order: For me, I always keep the things that I use the most in the front :) So you won’t have to dig and such… saves you time!
5. Backups: We all LOVE “new” things.. so try to keep your back ups out of sight & far like mine -so you only use/go get it when you really need it :) hehe
6. Extra Space: Definitely don’t over pack your vanity! You need as much room as you can get, for when applying makeup and such… you have room to do different things on :)

♥ Alright, I hope you guys find this helpful.
