Hey All,
I have been collection make up for quiet a long time now. & I also have figured out quiet a decent storage for them.
I love doing make up!!! Im a makeup addict! As my mom & everyone in the family says that i loved make up so much that i used to use my moms kajal & lipstick when i was may be just 3 yrs old!!! Ofcourse i don't remember anything about that.. but im pretty sure that my LOVE for make up must have started from that time itself! I used to wear my mom's dupatta as a saree, scribble lipstick on my mouth put some red round bindi, wear my moms jewellery & bangles that used to fit in my arms & i used to roam around in the house.. this is the story told by my Pishimuni (Dad's sister) & Didu (Granny). I imagine how i must have looked!
So as promised yesterday (on Facebook) that i will show my collection & storage as i will be cleaning my shelf today. Here Im with my baby..
P.S. Im not bragging or flaunting my collection. I just have a decent amount of collection & i would love to share it with you guys (only pictures haha). & Im very proud of it.
Also note: Its a picture heavy post. Please be patient.
so lets start with this lil drawer..
I got this from Malad for 150/- buck! haha can you believe that??? Its a cute lil 4 drawer stores in Pink color (ofcourse) & alot of make up gets inside even if its little! ( i made it more cute by adding those fluffy heart stickers)
I'm looking for a little bigger drawers.. which is clear acrylic. You know how Muji Storage has their stuffs. But unfortunately we don't have Muji here in India so i'm on a hunt for a better a bigger storage.
As Ikea is coming to India by this year end, hope to find some good storage options there!
So here's my 1st drawer..
I basically keep all my single eyeshadows here. I have alot of VOV & Miss Claire single E/S.
Here is the 2nd drawer up close..
I keep all the palettes, few single e/s & 1 sharpener here..
Some are the the korean unbranded palettes, 1 fake MAC palettes (for your info: it was a gift!, i would no have bought fake MAC Haha!) . You see the palette in the right corner, it was my 1st e/s palette. Its a brand called Cameleon! Never heard right? yeah..
My 3rd drawer has all the face stuffs.. concealers, blushes, pressed powders,bronzer & highlighter..
A generous display of all..
You see the small container? its a sample from Clinique anti Blemish Foundation. I love it but don't use it right now. Probably i have become dark or the foundation has changed color! Il try using it in the winters.
I have a cutest twist up blush brush from Estee Lauder. Its not mine it was my mom's.. hehe.. I still use it! Its awesome! & also an old Estee Lauder mascara wand to tame my brows.
The 4th & last drawer has my liquid liners, brow kit, eye lash adhesive, some perfumes, lipbalms & my 1st Lakme Pressed powder (i don't use it any more) & also my 1st lipgloss from Maybelline , i dint threw it away as i have some emotional attachment with it as it was my 1st!!! haha.. & also my 1st masacra the Define-a-Lash from maybelline again! I have my emotional attachments with this lil guy too!
I dont know why but i can never throw away my "1st" things? Do you have this emotional attachment too??? let me know.. so il not think if im the only weirdo living!
all the pencils together..
here is a close up of what i painted when i was a kiddo..
In this metal frame i keep all the things that doesn't fits in the drawers. Earlier I used to keep my lippies here.. (see photo).
I keep my 5 new MUA single e/s, Clinique moisture surge tinted moisturizer, Revlon Colorstay Aqua Mineral finishin powder, & NYX bronzer.
My brushes..
I keep it in a wooden holder. I will be changing the holder soon as all the brushes are stacked together. Need something new.
& here in this tub i keep my mascaras. Earlier i kept my mascaras in the 3rd drawers but since it was full, & there was no space i shifted it here. This is my 2nd cosmetic storage tub. See the haul Here.
I also keep my new True Match foundation, bourjois kabuki brush, more lipsticks, nail paint remover here..
& this is my 1st cosmetic storage tub. i got it from Home Stop. All my lippies & few tools rest here.
My audrey's eyelash curler, 2 tweezers, 1 black heaqd remover (no i dont have black head, i use it to remove dead cells from around my mouth & nose, you should keep 1 too!) & nail filer.
Tadadaaaaaaaaa!!!!

So here i show you the eye pencil & lip pencil stash.. I keep all pencils together in a glass. It was actually a whiskey glass, one day i was getting bored & i wanted to paint something with acrylic color.. So my dad gave me this glass. I was in school then, I first used as my pen/pencil holder, then when school college ended i converted to again pencil holder but a cosmetic one! Nice Na!
