Where do you store your makeup? I use the 4-drawer chest shown above. Isn’t it pretty? I found it on sale at an Eurospin supermarket a couple of months ago and just couldn’t resist buying it. I fell in love with the sunflower and ladybug design, it’s too cute! The drawers are very deep too so you can fit a lot of stuff in there. The first one houses my eyeshadows, the second my face products, the third my lip products and the last one my nail polishes and a few eyeshadow palette that didn’t fit in the top drawer. I just have too many eyeshadows, it’s ridiculous lol. What about you? Do you store your products by type of brand?

And now, this week’s beauty reads:

That chest is cute and it seems very pratical. I store my makeup in a single drawer and in a pink Hello Kitty tin box (ehm… :D ). I live with another girl in a 27 m2 apartment so there’s no room for more furniture! But somehow I managed to store eye, lips, nails and face products separated.

La Bisbetica, it’s practical indeed and it stores so much stuff! The pink HK box must be so cute too! And that’s great that you found a way to store everything even if you don’t have much space.

Tammy, you’re welcome. I think chest drawers are very practical as a makeup storage solution. They fit a lot of stuff. I had been looking for one for ages and when I saw how pretty this was (and quite cheap too thanks to the discount eheh), I knew I just had to get it. :)

Your storage is nice, I love sunflowers ;) I keep mine in see-though drawers.
