PART 1: Updated Makeup Collection & Storage - LIPS

Hello fellow makeup lovers!

Today I will be sharing Part 1 of my updated makeup collection and storage. This post will showcase all makeup products that are found in my 5-drawer Muji Acrylic Storage Unit for 'LIPS'. This includes both high-end and drugstore lipstick, lipgloss, lip balms, lip butter, lip liners, and lip tints/stains.

Before I begin, I would like to include the same disclaimer as I did within my first Makeup Collection post:
I would just like to mention that in no way am I creating this post to brag. I do acknowledge that I own more makeup than I'll ever need; however, I'm always on the lookout to try out new products. That being said, makeup is one of my hobbies and my collection has grown over the last two years. I did purchase the majority of the products that are in my makeup collection, and the rest was given to me as gifts from friends and family. I'm creating this post so that I could share with you how I store most of my makeup, and I'm hoping that this post will help those who would like new storage ideas for their makeup collection.
I also have a detailed review for the Muji Acrylic Drawer Units on the blog if you're interested in reading that!


So without further ado, here is my updated makeup collection & Muji storage!

    1. Lipstick heaven indeed! and that's after giving 8 to my mom, and throwing away 4 others! I had way too many drugstore lipsticks that I wasn't using and they were too similar in colors that it was pointless owning them all. Part 2 goes live tonight :)

  5. You do have a large collection, but I love how it is so organized! My stuff is scattered everywhere, stuffed in boxes and drawers. I think that is partly how my collection got out of control - out of sight, out of mind. I will definitely check out those storage units, but I think I need something on a larger scale like an Alex unit from IKEA. Makeup up is so much fun, but they seem to always be releasing new products, and I want to try it all!

    1. That's how my collection got out of control as well. By organizing my collection this way, I've been able to downsize and make sure I can use what I have before I buy more. I've also made a makeup inventory which I'll discuss later on the blog. It's really helped me! I feel the same. OHH the Alex unit is what I wanted as a second option! It's so amazing cuz you can put nailpolishes in there too. Very nice!

    1. Isn't it so much easier to find everything this way?

  7. Very nice! Great products in there, I'm looking forward to your next post! I like the organization a lot, though I personally prefer opaque, blends in with decor better.

    I did my "stash" post recently on my blog (if you wanna go see through my profile) but did not really do anything organizational since I just keep products in different makeup bags in a drawer. Coloured ip stuff together, lip balms together, eyeshadow stuff together, eye liner and mascara together, blush, bronzor and highlighter together, foundation and BB cream together - that's it :P

    1. Thank you Candice! I did have more opaque storage units before, but I found that I wasn't able to see what I had before buying stuff, so I would just keep accumulating more and more makeup than necessary.

      Awesome! I will definitely check out your post!!! :D

  8. Nice! I am obsessed with organizing and reorganizing my collection. I love seeing how others store their make-up.
