My Recycled Makeup Organizer

Acrylic Organizers were so in these days for every makeup addict that loves organizing their makeups and at the same time enjoys seeing each items that they got since acrylics were transparent. I do have a few that can hold lippies and other eye shadows and powders but I had to take extra care for them since they crack easily. Some of my everyday and most used makeups don't even fit in.

A few weeks ago I received 1 kg box full of chocolates from my best friend Kitty from Singapore. That wonderful box contains all my fave sweets in the world. Name it. Twix, Kitkat, two jars of Nutella and Ferrero Rocher, and more sweets. I'm afraid my blood sugar levels will suddenly rise as I approach second trimester. I honestly never liked sweet food, but my pregnant brain keeps controlling my taste buds.

I didn't know my son will love Ferrero Rocher and he finished eating almost 25 pieces of it in just two days. Since Ferrero's packaging is of high quality, it's such a waste to just throw it away. Somehow it reminds me of my makeup organizers and suddenly had a brilliant idea of keeping it as my very own acrylic makeup box.


I used it to organize my most used and everyday makeups, since I have to separate those I use personally from those I use for makeup service. I don't have time to remove the logo so I replaced it with my Beauty Bound Asia sticker.


What's Inside it? Mostly MAC makeups of course, since I really swear by it. The shades were mostly neutrals since we're talking about my everyday/go to holy grail products. My Fix sprays and foundie bottles don't fit in, but I have a separate container for them. My other lippies were stored in my other acrylic containers for lippies and powders. You can also use it to store makeup brushes, palettes and jewelries.


Products Inside: Clarins Instant light lipbalm perfector, Becca Shimmering Pressed Powder in Chmapagne Pop, Mac Studio Fix Powder in NC25, Mac concealers, Mac blushes in Fleur Power and Harmony, Mac Browset in Red Chestnut, Mac browliners in Lingering and Brunette, Mac Lip liners in Spice, Naked and Boldly Bare, Mac pro Twisted Mascara, Mac Eyeliners in Smoulder and Stubborn Brown, Mac eyeshadows in Espresso, Texture and Tempting, and my favorite Mac lippies in Lady Be Good, Runway Hit, Kinda Sexy and Velvet Teddy.


Now my makeup's easier to access and just looking at it is a total eye candy. I rarely go out these days so they're also rarely used. I actually want to add up more retro matte liquid lippies since I fell instantly in love with Lady Be Good.

Time to recycle ladies and I'm sure you'll love to do the same. I might get more Ferrero Rocher since I hit two birds with one stone with it. :)
