8 Brilliant Makeup Organizers That’ll Make You Wonder Why the Hell You Don’t Already Own One
Hi, we would like to order all of these at once, please.
I'm going to go ahead and take a wild guess that your current makeup storage situation is something out of Martha Stewart's worst nightmare. Probably two or three ridiculously old, powder- and foundation-encrusted zip pouches that sit on the back of your toilet or shoved under the sink next to your mouth wash. Am I getting close?
Listen—your makeup deserves better than this. You deserve better than this. You're a grown-ass adult! Get yourself some legit makeup organizers that not only serve a really good purpose, but also look crazy pretty and Instagrammable on your vanity. Or desk. Or toilet tank. And to help narrow your search down from one-billion to eight, I scoped out the very best of the best storage cases, stands, and shelves to get you started.
Now please; throw away those pouches—or burn them. I'm not picky.
