I have a relatively small makeup collection, but it is slowly growing. I used to just keep things in a few small makeup bags, but about a month ago I found an old IKEA storage solution which seems like it would do quite nicely. I keep buying more things, though, and having to relegate more less-used or drugstore items to random draws and dump cases. Might have to take a cue from some of your wonderful storage solutions soon and upgrade (especially seeing as I have a few more things on their way to me in the post). Anywho, this is how I store things for now:
The red case contains bits and bobs I rarely use, don't like, or am saving for swaps, old drugstore makeup, etc:
The IKEA storage contains all the eye and lip products I regularly use. The top drawers are for lip balms/random, jelly glosses, and pigments:
The second drawer is for lippies and glosses:
The bottom drawer is for eyeshadows and small palettes (plus Mac pro pans/depots I haven't yet got around to buying a 15-pan palette for):
I keep face products, mascara and liner in a separate makeup bag, as I don't have a large amount plus it's sort of my "everyday" bag. There's also another bag of random rarely-used and drugstore products in there too.
So, there's my (fairly rubbish) storage! Definitely going to need more space soon, I think.
