Something for new makeup-ers :P

I've been using makeup for about 6 months, so my collection isn't that big, but it still takes up some place.
That's why when I found this cute drawer thing for 15 shekels (which is like... 3 USD) I was thrilled at the space usage

On the left are my brushes, whice I admit, are also pretty cheap and useless, but i'm getting there. I've got 3 MAC brushes- 239, 210, 217.

I really want something like that for extras that I don't use as much, but I have never seen those drawer trios in stores here. Did you buy yours online?

I have a couple of those drawers and they come in handy!!!

That's how I store the makeup I use the most!
Top drawer is labeled "face" middle drawer is labeled "eyes" and the bottom drawer is labeled "lips" all the stuff I use for nights out and such live somewhere else.

I love that yours is pink! Mine is plain white. It always gets dirty

thanks everyone :]
I didn't get it online, but you might find it in your local crafts store.

Mine is for all the makeup I have :P But every drawer has it's own purpose, one is for face one is for eyes and one is for lips and everything that is long and narrow.

You'd think such a simple item would be easily purchased here. I have looked at so many large hobby and craft stores and have only ever found the ugly manly toolbox variety, which are just eyesores! I don't know, sometimes I get so frustrated shopping for stuff in Switzerland.

I have a silver set - I got them from an average storage/cheap store and I got three sets of three drawers. It took me like two years to learn they are actually stackable. I cleaned out my makeup kit recently (I had a lot of things people had just randomly given me) and cut it down to just six drawers but my collection is expanding again!

Originally I had it set up and labelled with 'EYE' 'FACE' 'GLOSS' etc. with all the lipsticks sorted according to base colour but I still had stuff lying around. It's a great system if everything fits but I'm terrible at putting things back all the time, so I left my essentials out in a cup (mascara etc.)

The pink is so cute!

Do you have B&Q DIY store in Switzerland? They sell them there.
