A peek into my makeup storage area

Oct 1

It's been a while since I showed you guys how I organize my makeup! Although these days, "organized" is a loose, loose word I use to refer to my current stash of beauty products. I know I am due for a major clean up but I simply don't have the time yet! Argh. I'll post an update when I get to do that, I promise.

For now I'd like to show you my little makeup corner. I used to do my face in front of the dresser in the bedroom, but since I got my Suesh makeup case I've moved my base of operations to my studio. On one end I have the desk where I paint and the shelves where I store my art materials. On the other end I've got this!

It's pretty neat because it faces the window so I've got lots of natural light for photographing FOTDs, swatches, and tutorials. When it's night I just turn the light bulbs on so I can see what I'm doing in detail. Everything I need is also quite literally laid out in front of me.

I got this cabinet from S&R The Fort just over a month ago. I just spent P1,800 since it was on sale from P2,500! Currently it stores unused and yet to be photographed press samples, but once these are cleared I plan to organize my makeup here per category. So one drawer will have only bases, another lipsticks, blushes, eye makeup etc. I just need to get my blog posts moving so I can do that.
