My Pretty Makeup Storage + Murder Mystery Madness

I'm thinking of changing my blog name since I rarely teach nowadays. I've put a poll to the left side, please vote! Any other ideas/thoughts, tweet me @ThinkPinkLauren. Thanks guys!!


I am NOT a tidy person. I'm awful, really bad. My problem is that I have too much stuff and not enough space, so I tend to just leave everything on the floor. I'm a great believer in the 'floordrobe'. But y'know, New Year, new start and all that - I thought I should try and make an effort to keep my room tidy.

My make up normally kind of lies everywhere, spread among three boxes with no rhyme or reason. I recently did a POST where I did a mini tidy and discovered lots of goodies! I'm just not good at keeping things in their place.

So, when I saw this gorgeous little storage box in WHSmith for half price, I knew I had to have it!!

Look at all those spaces for stuff!! I am determined to keep this organised. So far I have sorted it like this:

Bottom drawer is skin/cleansing stuffs, middle left is my everyday make up, middle right is my brushes and eyelashes, top is (l-r) eyes, lips, face that I sometimes use! I have a ton more make up that I haven't sorted yet, so think I'm gonna try get another one for 'extra' make up. I'm also wanting to get an actual brush holder for my Sigma brushes rather than have them in a drawer.

Do you like it? I think it's super cute and it was about time I threw out all the stuff I don't use and reacquaint myself with the good products I have that I'd forgotten about.

EDIT: The cupcake drawers are available online HERE.

Also wanna show you a few pics from the Murder Mystery night I recently had with my family:

It was an old school Hollywood theme, from l-r is my sister's boyfriend, my sister, me, my dad, my mum and my boyfriend. I think we all did well!

I was supposed to be an aging actress/ producer/ author etc! My outfit description was a white fitted dress and a white fur stole, so I think I did ok! My character was Mae Vest, obv based on Mae West, so I modelled my make up on her...

Haha, what do you think?? I love Murder Mysteries. My friends and I used to do them a lot, and Ive done a few with my family. If you've never done one, I'd thoroughly recommend it!!

Anyways...

How do you store your make up? Are you one of the super organised people or are you a bit like me?? =p

Let me know!
