Everyday Makeup Storage + Ideas

I think one of the challenges almost every girl who wears makeup undergoes is how to store makeup that is used on a daily basis. I have found a system that is both functional and looks decent and that is what I will be sharing with you today. One tip I can give is not to limit your ideas as to which containers can be used or what stores specific storage containers need to be bought! Allow yourself to open up the creativity centre in your mind to explore different options to cater to your storage. In my case, I do not wear makeup on a daily basis but when I do, I am not a big eye shadow person hence you will not see many eye shadows in my makeup arena. I keep my eye shadows/eye shadow palettes, blush palettes and any other makeup I do not use often in the first drawer of my dresser, which I may make a blog post on in the future.

My purpose here is not to brag about anything (as most of the items I use on a daily basis are from the DRUGSTORE), rather its to show you that its just takes a little imagination to make your space reflect you, no matter how small or large your living space may be.


The Black and White organizational container is from Winners, the material is not too easy to clean but I mainly purchased it for the pretty design. It mostly holds my foundations (Neutrogena Healthy Skin Foundation + Makeup Forever Mat Velvet Plus) + my everyday Jordana Blush, some lip liners



This jar holds most of my face brushes
The jars with the white and purple beads are from Dollarama, as well as the beads. 
TIP - Use your pretty earings as forms of decoration!


This jar holds all of my eye brushes. Again I display my earings this way and it adds some 'glamour' to the jar!


This container is a recycled Ferroro Rocher Box, I store my MAC Skin Finish, MAC Studio Fix Power, Rimmel Stay Matte, some Wet n' Wild Palettes, and an ELF blush and bronzer duo

This gem I found at the local thrift store for $4.00 (what a STEAL). I store the brushed I don't really use in here. The exact same jar I saw at Winners just the other day or $19.99!!! 


Some of my Bath n Body Works perfumes are here, namely Warm Vanilla Sugar, Twilight Woods and Secret Wonderland


This pretty container/jar is also a find from the local Thrift store, I beleive it was  $1-2  not too sure, I mostly keep some lipsticks in here, but I usually swap them out for whatever I am liking for the time being. There are the Mac Viva Glam II, a Yves Rocher, Rimmel Airy Fairy, some NYC red lipsticks that Im trying and a the Revlon Lip Butter in Creme Brule.
