This is the best video for organizing make-up in the Alex drawers!! I just spent about an hour looking for a video like this and watched the beginning of a bunch of other videos to find out it wasn't what I was looking for. I'm happy I stumbled across your video. Very detailed!!
I love your organizational acrylic containers. I just placed an order on Amazon for some of these acrylic containers for lipglosses, lipsticks and highlighters, bronzers and blushes. I am so excited they look so pretty. 🥰🧡
We are currently remodeling our master bath. Where our shower stall used to be a built in vanity desk is going to be made with shelves above for storage. Underneath I’m going to be purchasing an Alex drawer to slide in and out when doing makeup. Currently all of my makeup has been organized on a 3 tier Crafting cart. What works well but not sure if it will in the Alex for my eyeshadow palettes such as the naked ones is clear napkin holders from the dollar tree. They help keep them upright to where I can see what palette I’m looking for.
Watching this in 2024. How is this working for you now @sharlenmarie80? I think I’m concerned about getting to the makeup when ur ready to sit down and do your make up. TIA
@@JackieAnnMakeup it’s been a long time coming and the makeup collection is definitely out of hand right now. We’re not even going to talk about the nail polish and perfume problem haha I figured I’d buy organizers first and see what I can fit in them and that will determine what I need
This is such a great video and sooooo helpful! I so appreciate you doing this and listing all the items as well. You have a really awesome set up. I've been trying to figure out some different ways to store my makeup after organizing my products recently. Thank you very much!! And your eye makeup looks absolutely stunning!!🤗
I don't do make up or anything, but I was looking for storage organization for my new IKEA Alex drawers and married them with 2 96 inch Pinnarp kitchen countertops that I just finished sanding and Shellacking. I watched your first video back in 2016, good ideas. Looks like you've lost a little weight. You look great, well I mean still look great. Good content, and thanks.
Thanks for the storage ideas! I’m getting ready to order a 5 drawer unit and I was wondering how to best organize my makeup. Is the unit hard to put together and what did you mean when you said if the drawer is unscrewed?
So sorry I'm late at replying to this! My boyfriend + brother put them together for me and they did it really quickly. I don't think it's hard but I am just impatient hahaha! There's a way to unscrew one of the screws in the back of the drawer so the drawer extends all the way out and there isn't any wasted space in the back. I was always too scared to try but I am sure theres another video here on RU-vid showing how! :)
@@JackieAnnMakeup The IKEA in my area and most others locations have been sold out for a long time with no anticipated restock date. I bought several drawer organizers before finding that out. It figures as soon as I’m ready to buy them I can’t. Lol
Jackie Ann personally I like these long rectangle organizers that come in black or white and they have rubber on the bottom not to mention they are only from dollar tree but look very much like high end containers!!!! They have them in like three or four sizes!!!’ They also have clear acrylic organizers in the same shape and I’m pretty sure they are all the same size.
