Girl, Muji is your friend. Below are pics showing how I have stored my crazy amount of lipsticks. Also links to Muji websites showing you prices and availability. The acrylic box has 6 compartments and each hold 7 MAC lipsticks so good going. The lipglosses are just stored in plastic 'useful storage box' boxes that I picked up from Staples.

Let me know how you get on:

Tish, I too have those black mesh trays that hold my blushers and powders. But I notice you have the 'scaffolding' (cant think of the right word) that stacks the trays - where from?

I have only been able to get hold of the trays and I can stack them on top of each other but they are getting too heavy and I'm scared theyre gonna tumble down.

I bought all the pieces from Target...They sell the holder with two tray for @ 11.99

OMG,I totally have that Target black wire stuff for my makeup. Squee...I even have the big three drawer chest thing. I love them!

^^^Target has amazing gadgets...I bought the Three drawer Mesh rolling cart too...I love it and it was only like 29.99...Is this the one you have ?

I have my Mesh Basket and holder on top now

[TISH1124]

I keep saying I will take pictures...I just never have...I will one day...stash pictures are just so time consuming especially when they are as large as mine...But I will soon...I think I am avoiding seeing just how sick I am

 

[GlamQueen21]

^Me too. I haven't got the chance to take pics of my makeup collection. I'm going to wait after my Makeup Art Cosmetics haul.

if you want something cheap. ie free in the meanwhile, 4 lipglasses fit in a pigment box.

thanks dirty plum - i didn't know i could buy things like that in staples! will have a look next week because i've got so many lippies it's a pain trying to read the labels!!

glosses i'm not bothered with because i can see the colour - but lippies are a problem!
