Instead of taking a nap like I meant to, I decided to reorganize my makeup collection. While I was at it, I thought I'd take some pics for you lovelies, since everyone's doing it.

Here's where everything lives:


I'm weird about my eyeshadows, so the ones I've purchased in pans, or the shadows I don't use often and depotted are in my 15 pan palettes (which I arrange in an order that only makes sense to me!):


Thus, the vast majority are still in their cute little pots, plus all my pre-made quads:


Lipsticks (I didn't realize until doing this that I think I have way too many lipsticks, hehe):


Blushes, Skinfinishes, CCBs, and other random face stuff:


Paints, pigment samples and vials, and the lipstick bags:


Brushes, Disney TLCs, Fluidliners, LE palettes, Glitz Glosses:


I highly recommend these organizers, the idea for which I stole off someone on lj (thanks if you're reading!) The left one has all my pencils, some Lipglasses, Pro Longwears, Chromeglasses, and random stuff. The right one has more Lipglasses, Shadesticks, Glitter Liners, Lipgelees, Lipglass Stains, and some other random things:


All the pigs, all lined up:


And my Urban Decay eyeshadows and Lancome Juicy Tubes, so they don't feel left out:


So...
Dear Fireman,
If my apartment is ever on fire, forget about me, grab these plastic drawers. I keep them right next to the door for this reason. Thanks.
Love,
Heather Marie.

i love those top square!!!! where did u get them.... i feel so dissorganized sometimes i just feel like dumping my current bins and finding a new way to fix it up. i like this idea!!!!

Just when I was thinking I might have overdone it, I see a beautiful collection like yours and think.... na, no way. It's awesome. Great Colours!

Lovely collection. Where did get the thing that has your gloss in it?

I got them at Office Depot. Any office supply store should have them, and they have all different kinds of useful organization things that are great for makeup storage!

Heheh, I quite literally have it all planned out if there's ever some emergency in my apartment. I'll chuck the stuff on top into the bottom drawer and run!

I don't know what i'm more impressed with. The sheer amount of stuff, or how well it's organized!

Hahah, so much of my life is disorganized that I try to express my OCD tendencies by alphabetizing my books and efficiently storing my makeup.

I love your lip storage!
