Makeup Organization

Today I'm going to show you my makeup organization. Unlike most people I do not use a makeup bag, I use a cabinet. I got mine from PBTeen (Hannah Beauty Wall Cabinet). In it I keep my everyday makeup. I don't normally rotate the products, unless I discovered or buy a new item. 


The left side door is where I keep my eye shadow pallets. I do not reach for all of these everyday, I just like to keep them in my everyday stash to be aware of them if I need them. 
The right side has two pockets where my face products are. The top one has foundations, primers, and concealers. The bottom pocket is where my powder products are. Here I keep highlighters, blush, bronzer, and setting powder. (Also a setting spray) 



At the base of the cabinet are shelves that I put vase fillers (little pebbles) in to store my makeup brushes (along with spoolies and beauty blenders).  The pebbles keep my brushes standing up and clean. The other one has my nail polishes. I like keeping them here because it reminds me when I need to paint my nails. 


In the two bottom drawers I keep lip and eye products. In the lip one I have a lipstick, gloss, and satin. In the eye drawer I have eyebrow shadow, cream shadows, eyeliners, and mascara. 
In the long drawer I keep products I'm trying out or repeats of other products I already have in my cabinet. 





















There are many ways to organize your makeup, this is just the way that works best for me. Everything is in its own spot and easy to see. The best thing is to find what works for you to make putting your makeup on enjoyable and stress free.

Multi Purpose Eye Look

There are no real rules to makeup, so when it comes to eye looks anything goes. If you see a blush that is beautiful, there is no point in not trying it as an eyeshadow. We see this a lot with cream products, but really the same applies with powder. I have been wearing this look a lot; it is functional and fast for both the face and eyes! 

First I primed my eyelids and used my finger to swirl all colors of the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick Compact in Wild rose to apply on my eyelids. I used my fingers, not a brush, to get the most pigment possible. 

Next I added the lightest side of my Too Faced Sun Bunny Bronzer to my outer corner. The rose mixed with the bronze gives a warm feminine look. I also applied this with my finger. As you can see this is very fast, with no brushes, and functional, because you can move on to the face with the same products.
