Makeup Storage: MUJI 5 Drawer & 2 Drawer

Okay so recently I decided I needed to update my Makeup Storage.

I've been using the Storage Bins from Office Depot with the 12 drawers and It's worked, until now. I feel that I need to weed out what I NEED instead of what I WANT, soon! otherwise I will be on a show called Hoarders :)

So I've been buying little at a time. Just to see how I'm liking how it looks.

I was really interested in the Acrylic Cube but wasn't ready to drop over $150.

So instead I purchased 2 Acrylic storage drawers from Muji. One is a 5 drawer case and the other is 3 with a lifting lid. Bought one of each just to see how much I would be able to fit. I was concerned with the depth of the drawers. I wanted something that would be able to fit my Paintpots and Tendertones.

Brand: Muji Acrylic Case 5 Drawers- $27.95
           Muji Acrylic Case 2 Drawers with Lifting Lid- $26.75

Shipping was pretty fast. From what I've read is that they are usually out of stock. I was happy to see they had both in stock. Shipping was $9.95 for both and they both came really protected. With layer after layer of bubble wrap.




I hadn't realized how many lipsticks and lip products I have. I will need to purchase another one of these 5 drawers. I like it because I don't have to stack products and its easy to find what I need. I just need to learn to throw away the boxes items come in. Anyone else keep them like I do?


I'm pretty sure that if I learn to throw away the boxes more would fit. =/ Right now 22 lipsticks fit per drawer.



Here's what the 2 drawer looks like. I really like that it fits my Paintpots and Tendertones because those have the most height. It definitely fits my blushes and face powders. I was more concerned finding something that fit the other two. Now it wont fit foundation bottles or stuff like that. I will need to find other acrylic boxes that will.



Have any storage advice? This is definitely a work in progress.
