A nifty new purchase


Hello Lovelies :)
So I keep my makeup collection in a large silver vanity case, but as my collection has grown I’ve found it getting a little cramped in there! There are 4 shelves in the case but two of them were occupied by lipsticks so I was beginning to run out of room for blushes and other things I like to keep at ‘easy to reach’ places. After trawling Ebay and Amazon for hours I finally found a clever little product to store my lipsticks in and free up some room in my case!

(apologies for the fluff, I never noticed until I uploaded it!)

I found this is acrylic lipstick holder here on Amazon for just under £7 and it holds 12 lipsticks so I decided to buy two. It was the cheapest I could find and I’m really impressed with the quality. It feels very sturdy and actually quite heavy making it feel more expensive than it is! It fits all my lipsticks perfectly and makes it so much easier to find the one I want. I also really like that it’s tiered so I can see all my lipsticks easily when I grabbing one in a rush in the morning!


What do you guys think?
How do you keep your makeup organised? :)
