I am in love with my new acrylic makeup organiser. It is exactly what I had been looking for, and I purchased mine online from an Australian store called The Makeup Box Shop. I searched online for a week or so, and went to various stores in the city but couldn’t find anything that would fit as much as these stands do, and everything that was smaller was actually more expensive. Go figure. The Makeup Box Shop boxes are now $99 AUD each, and that includes free shipping anywhere in Australia. The Makeup Box Shop do ship internationally, but you would need to email them for a quote. I highly recommend the store, I was dealing with Katie via email and she was super friendly and helpful and even emailed me to check in on whether or not I had received my parcel. If you’re interested, I’ve also put up a short video on youtube of me rambling about what is actually stored in the drawers. Now, any ideas as to how I can store my brushes?
Do you know if they only come in the one size? I’d need about 4 😛
Oooh I totally need this. Or one for my nail polishes at least!!!
That looks awesome. I wouldn’t mind about 6 of those! Pssst check out http://www.glitzy-glam.com for brush holder cups, you can even get them monogrammed and they come with little loose beads in them so your brushes stand up straight. If I didn’t have my brushes in my trusty vintage Stila paint cans I would go for those.
I’ve seen the brush holder cups on Glitzy Glam, but they’re not really my style… Thanks for the suggestion though!
Oh love this! Now I want one. haha. So tidy… just the way I like my stuff.
This looks great! Though, I don’t have nearly as much makeup as you to warrant something like this. I store my brushes in miniature glass jars. Works for me!
PS. My Panetone mug was a gift but I believe you can purchase them online!
Thanks lovely, I found a site that sells them online and might buy one soon!
That is one helpful organizer! Make me feel bad about the way I keep my make-up :p

That is the coolest thing ever. I’m like cclarebear, I’d need at least 4 🙂
Could you get a pretty pencil holder for your brushes?
Oh this is perfect! Just what I need.
I doubt I’ll be able to afford shipping to Ireland though- will have to get looking for something similar closer to home I think!
I hope you manage to find something Thelma!
I don’t think one would suffice for me 😛
As for a brush holder, what I did was, get a pretty drinking glass, filled it with vase fillers (I bought mine from Wheel & Barrow), and stuck my brushes in them. They hold up very nicely. Some suggested rice too, but they tend to leave talc on the handles so I wouldn’t really recommend it.
I am thinking I might actually need to buy a second storage unit as the first is full to overflowing 🙁
Ooo this looks very good! I’ve always wanted a box to store, but living out of bags as I tend to do at the moment means I need to lug around my main makeup items in a bag. Once I get my own place, I’d lurvee a pretty little box like this!
AMAZING!!
To both your makeup collection AND the organiser!!!
I have all my makeup in 2 drawers and 1 basket, plus the makeup bag i carry around with me…
Works ok for me…
Would LOVE something like this for nail polishes though, as Fiona suggested, as mine are currently in a tub and that can be a lil annoying!
Just when I thought makeup couldnt get more tempting and prettier…there you go and change all that. Looks so good,love that its clear too. My stuff is all over at the moment, in cute boxes but makes it so hard to find things in the morning!
Also, about the youtube vid you did…how do you go about those with the iphone?..thanks!
I have an iPhone 4 which allows you to video record in the regular camera facility…
Owch! That’s pricey. Have you had a look in Officeworks for something similar? That’s where I got all my makeup organisational boxes, containers etc.
I use pen cups for my brushes. Also those multi pen/desk supply caddies are good too. You can put your brushes in the pen cup slot and cotton buds, sharpeners and things in the smaller slots.
Little vases from the op-shop work good too. If they are too deep fill the bottom with glass pebbles. 🙂
I did look in officeworks and various other storage stores but I prefer the look of the acrylic drawers rather than the generic plastic ones…
I can see why you love so much, it looks so nice and neat.
This looks amazing! and love how your so neat and organized. Not sure if I want to spend $99, but will definitely have to check it out 🙂
Love love love it. Have to get me one of those.
You definitely do Natalie. Maybe buy two just in case…
I must have this – pretty sure I could convince the “man of the house” to let me splurge a little, considering he hates the mess my excessive makeup stash creates!
I’m sure you could convince him if you explained how neat everything would be afterwards… 😉
I notice you liked Glasshouse products so I suggest buy any of their candles and when you finish you can use them as your brush holders!
I know the ones, thanks for the tip but I have a solution now! xx

Oh I love this! I used to store my makeup in my traincase but it was always overflowing, so I moved to stackable plastic drawers but they’re so ugly. I store my palettes in a big pink bowl thing. I have always lusted after one of the storage things the kardashians have in their bathrooms, and this looks IT. I’d need a couple though I think 🙁 exxy!
I store my brushes/mascaras/liners in stila paint cans, but before that I just used pretty glasses clustered together. xx
I wanted one similar to the ones that the Kardashian sisters have too – this was the closest (and cheapest) I could find!
How do I buy this?
