Well hello again,

If you’re anything like me, I bet you have a sh*t ton of makeup and only use about half of it. Sound about right? I thought so because up until a year ago, I did the same thing. What changed? Well, my organization changed.

About a year ago, I was irritated when applying my makeup because I couldn’t find my eyeliner in my makeup bag. I shuffled through it about 10 times and no such luck. My best friend was waiting outside for me and I still needed to put on eyeliner and mascara but couldn’t find it in Vera Bradley makeup bag. I decided that I was over keeping my makeup in either my makeup bag or a plastic bin and decided to invest in a makeup organizer. What is a makeup organizer? (Click the hyperlinked ‘makeup organizer’ to see an example of the product.) Now, this is just one example of an organizer. If you search google or amazon, you will find a larger variety. The one I attached above is one of the organizers I own. I decided that I could place all my makeup that I used on a daily basis in the organizer, that way I had them all sitting out in front of me and could find what I needed fast and efficiently. After purchasing the first organizer, I realized that it helped quicken my makeup routine by 15 minutes. That’s right, 15 freaking minutes! You think I’m joking but it seriously saved me so much time. I also noticed that I started using full bottles of products versus forgetting about them, finding them 2 years later that leaves me to have to throw them away when I barely even used them. So not only did the organizers save me time, but they also saved me money. Crazy right? So after owning that first one for about 6 months, I was given an additional organizer for my birthday. Oh boy, you wouldn’t believe how excited I was to get home and to start reorganizing my makeup. My older organizer was beginning to get cluttered from lots of newer makeup I had purchased and I started using the old plastic bin again. But no more, once I brought this new present home, I cleared off my sink and placed this new organizer on the opposite corner to my sink. See picture below:

1st Organizer: Top Portion (Left—I’ll relink it to the picture)

Liquid Lipsticks Holder (Right— it’s actually a pencil holder)

1st Organizer: Bottom Portion (Also linked to the picture)

2nd Organizer: This one was given to me as a gift and I can’t find it anywhere online. So I linked a similar one to the photo. It doesn’t have the drawers but it has a lot of portions to it.

Brush Organizer (linked to photo), this was also a gift and a little pricier. I did find some on amazon that were a lot cheaper and looked pretty similar. I’d check out amazon if you don’t want to spend $50 on this. I have had this for years (and you can tell haha) but it holds a lot. You can’t tell from the photo, but the right side is a zipper pocket and it holds a good bit too.

Now that I have all these organizers, I went back through my makeup and put similar products together. Honestly, it’s a game changer. If you’re someone with a growing makeup collection and not much place to put it, I definitely suggest investing in these organizers. These will save you time and money, and who can argue with that? I know I can’t! Let me know if you own a Organizer and how you feel about it? Or if this has inspired you to buy one. I’d love to hear how you all feel. Until next time..
