I've had so much fun looking at everyone elses make up collections, so thought that I would share mine.
I've collected MAC on again/ off again since about 2003, my first love being pigments!
My Storage Solution/ bedside table! I finally accepted last year that I needed a serious storage solution, and after much discussion in Ikea, decided on this. Its a small part of a wardrobe unit, filled with the shallow drawers designed for accessories.The unit has 6 drawers, 1 holds my jewellery, 1 my non-mac makeup, and the other 4 are dedicated to MAC (although the drawers are starting to get a little crowded, so something might have to make more room for MAC soon!)
Drawer 1: Foundations, face powders, MSFs, blushes, pearlisers, palettes, quads, eyeliners and shadesticks. I like to keep the boxes for everything, I'm not sure why, I just like it better that way!
Drawer 2: My personal favourite- the pigment drawer. I organise my pigments in alphabetical order - a bit Obsessive Compulsive I know but then at least I know if somethings missing and can pretty much narrow it down, although there's not much danger of things going missing, considering I only live with my boyfriend- but he's always threatening to do some finger painting with my pigments!
The pigments without boxes/ vials/ samples are stored, in no particular order in the corner compartment.
Drawer 3: Eyeshadow/ Paint/ Lipstuff drawer. The pretty pigments gave me a bit of an obsession with eyeshadows, so I've gathered quite a few of these. I've only really just started building my lipgloss/lipstick collection, as I've never been much of a wearer of lipstick.
Drawer 4: Sets of things. I put my charged waters/ fix plus/ heirlooms/ lip sets in here because they wouldn't fit anywhere else!
My brush collection. I got given the heirlooms face set last year, but haven't got around to using it yet!
My postcards. I don't actually go out of my way to collect these, but get them as mailers or when I go and buy things, and I don't like to throw them away!
Various face things, foundations/ charged waters etc.
And...... Onto the pretty things!
My MSF/ blush/ Pearlizer collection. I only got into blushes about 3 months ago, and seem to only use my Bobbi Brown Shimmerbrick at the moment, but I LOVE these, especially petticoat!
