Hi Dolls hope you are all having a great weekend. I had been trying to find a solution for all of my lipsticks and I have the Muji Drawers but I wasn't able to utilize them for my lippies because there were other thins I was using it for. I know everyone dies for the Kardashian Clear Cube and well at $300 something bucks just couldn't bring myself to do it. I love my Muji drawers but I am limited in the amount of depth I have in them . I needed something a bit deeper and well get ready gonna get picture heavy. I just started to feel like I wasn't able to see anything , some pushed to the back and I do not like to Stack things because I never see whats on the bottom
I had debated on wether or not I wanted to do this post because I worry that it may come off as "Show Off or Bragging". I assure you that is
NOT my intent with this post at all. I do this to help you all and give you ideas on how to organize and simplify your beauty area and help get better use out of things you may have. I have a pretty decent collection and I do give things to family and friends when I know I will not use it just to clear the air. It took me about 2 hours to get everything the way I wanted and I started to feel some type of way that it had just spun out of control and was like WTH am I doing? After a much needed pep talk with my one and only he assured me that this is just what makes me me and to have fun . Don't owe anyone and explanation and he it comes with blogging. I don't know how Temptalia does it !
I did my homework and came up with a variety of different dupes for the Clear Cube. You can purchase the exact same one I have if you
Click Here. That is an Ebay seller. Now I also know some of you do not buy on Ebay so I found another on
Sherrie Blossom's website also. There is also another here on
Amazon a little more expensive than the one I got. Now they come in a 3,4,and 5 drawer with lid and come in Compact or in Large size.
I paid $168 with shipping from Florida to NJ and I received it with tracking within a week. I can not tell you how impressed I was the Packaging and it arrived safe and sound.
You guys cant comprehend just how much Bubble Wrap that was involved in this package. I could have Wrapped myself up in it and shipped myself back ! lol
Ain't it just purty? lol
What you see inside the drawer are 2 dividers. One with an "X" Formation and just 2 to divide a drawer.
A small Boo Boo but its in the Acrylic itself not on the outside so I think it will be ok .
Top Portion does Come with a lid but I just rested it behind the unit. I put the "X" Divider and put my perfumes, Glitter Stacks, random goodies.
This unit is pretty Big. i could only fit it to the Right of my Vanity. Pretty Heavy too 27lb!
Yes i am a Pigment Junkie (don't judge) . Here I used the 2 dividers for all my 20g jars.
My New Storage for my Lippies.
All of them fit in 2 5 drawer units from Muji. I added a 3 drawer to add more room for new lippies on the way ! lol
Becasue i have the cube I was able to eliminate the use of 3 of the 3 drawer Muji units . Thats how much stuff fits inside of it.
I hot Glued 4 of these Pencil Holders I got from Target makes for better storage for my liners etc.
I love storing them this way sooo much better. Can see everything don't have to fumble.
Since I was in Cleaning Mode Decided to Organize my Bangles too! Got the Clear Holder from the Container Store for $7 and the Black one from Michaels for $3.49. Wish I would have gone there 1st!
Overall i love my Unit and I refuse to have to expand anymore! My rom is tiny and as long as I stick to the space I have and am realistic with what I actually use it will be ok. My fam love reaping the benefits when I have a "Clean Out"! Lets just say they don't really shop for makeup and hair products bc I always have goodies for them lol.
