The Sunday Post #1 – New Year, New Product Organisation

ByLisa Jayne

Now that we’ve entered into a new year I had many new years resolutions, the usual diet and exercise, but I also wanted to become a bit more organised. Not only with myself and my blog, but to also organise a lot of my storage spaces. I’ve recently redecorated my room, and with that has come a lot more storage space, and plenty of room to hoard beauty products. Being a typical unorganised person, despite having loads of storage spaces, my beauty products were all just thrown in with no order to them. So I decided it was about time to organise my life and found myself sorting through and organising my products, hopefully leading to a much more organised me.

 

The storage space in question is a dresser from the IKEA HEMNES range, which comes with several drawers and plenty of space to be organised. As I have far too many beauty products than one 22 year old girl needs, I’ve dedicated a whole drawer to them. When it first came to organising I had to decide what products were worth staying, and what products I just don’t use or are empty (I had a surprising amount of empty bottles..). I then used old gift set boxes that I had lying around to keep products in to put them into sections. I started on the left hand side with all of my nail varnishes, then my jewelry that couldn’t be hung up in a box next to it. Then I decided to put separate sections for hair products, skin care, and moisturisers.  I even put a smaller box at the back full of samples I always forget to use. In the gaps around the boxes I have a pile of body butters, and a couple of random bits like deodorant and nail varnish remover. Once it was done I felt satisfied and was pretty impressed with my organisation skills. I now have a whole drawer that’s completely organised so I can see what products I have, and find things easily if needed. Certainly a lot easier than my previous method of throwing products in and spending 20 minutes hunting for them. Now just to use this technique on the rest of my room…

  • Concoctions Shampoo

    ByLisa Jayne

    When I was at the TOWIB event in June, one of the brands that caught my eye was Concoction. The idea behind their brand was to mix together different ‘ingredients’ to formulate your own shampoo with what you’ve decided you want in it. I thought the idea behind it was great, but at the TOWIB event I…

          Months and months ago my lovely boyfriend treated me to this, my first MAC lipstick. At the time I originally wanted Hue, but after swatching it in the shop I found that it was way too pale for me, it just made me look ill. So I decided to swatch another lipstick…
