Clean House

I love seeing how you all store & organize your things, because everyone has a unique perspective. Here's a glimpse into my make-up cases, starting off with my "everyday make-up":
Stackable tupperware isn't sexy, but is compact & easy to access. As you can see, I mix in all types of make-up: from MAC to Cover Girl to Kat von D.
Make-up brushes pile up on one another;
eyeshadows are separated from foundation / blushes, brushes, and lipgloss

But I am a product whore & I love new things...I just can't help here. Here's a peek into two of my metal make-up cases, divided by lip gloss & lipstick and eyeshadows.


I have met my match with someone who's just as anal (who is, not likes...you perv!) Rye Bread is notoriously organized. Here's a look into his closet:

His drawer, dedicated to ties.


categorized by shirt type and pant type, his closet stays immaculate.

What are your best strategies to keeping a clean space?

  1. i try to do some sort of "clean out" once a month or every other month where i throw away old stuff or give it away. less stuff, more space, right??

    p.s. that's a SH+TLOAD of makeup, girl! i'm impressed!

  2. I like to see how others organize. I'm pretty much in the obsessively organized category, scary. hahahaha Currently redo-ing the closet still.

  9. wow you have loads of make up!
    I think you should take out all old stuff when you buy new stuff, so you room still clean, but it's very hard
