Makeup Organization

I don't know about everyone else, but finding a functional way to organize my makeup has been almost a lifelong process!  : )  I love makeup & use it everyday, so it is inevitable that it will be out on the counter.  I have tried various baskets, caddies, organizers, & have never really been happy.  Things would get messy, I'd still be digging through the basket, caddy, etc in order to find that one perfect eyeshadow.  However, I now have a system that I love & it has worked well for the best month & a half!  (That's a major win in my book!)  Without further delay, here is my new makeup organization method:

I am now using one of my bathroom drawers to organize.  The 1st basket is hair ties & bobby pins, the 2nd one is for eye creams & special face creams, & the 3rd basket is for samples.

Here is a side view of the upcoming makeup organization.  I love my toothbrush holding ballerina.  I have had the ballerina since I was 4 or 5 & it always makes me smile.  :

Frontal view of organizer.  (Those are my new pink, Sigma brushes on top which I love & will discuss later.)  This is just a 5 drawer organizer which I purchased for maybe $10 & it is just the perfect size.

The top drawer is called my "face" drawer & is for foundations, powder, blush, bronzer, & concealer.

The second drawer is my eyeshadow drawer.  I don't think that needs further explanation.

I call the third drawer my "eye accessory" drawer.  This contains mascara, brow stuff, eyeliner, sharpeners, etc.

I call the next drawer my lips & stuff drawer.  It has my lip gloss, lipstick, lip liner, as well as my compact, & eye palette.

The final drawer is my misc drawer & it contains, you guessed it, the miscellaneous stuff, including my eyelash curler, tweezers, chapstick, & false eyelashes.

I am all about functionality & this new method is extremely functional.  It is compact enough that C is okay if I leave it on the counter & the drawers are not too deep so things don't get lost.
