Dressed For Time Offers Top Fashion, Beauty & Lifestyle Blog Tips For The Best Popular Chic Fall & Winter Style Outfit Inspiration in Chicago

Current Beauty Organization

June 16, 2015

The products in my beauty collection are still not totally how I want them to be after moving.. But I think I’ve gotten close enough that I can back away and know where everything is while enjoying the set-up aesthetically. Here it is!

First, let me start by saying that my set-up is not a normal one, by far! Most people have their makeup in the bathroom or bedroom, and books on the bookshelves.. Well, I have my books in the living room, and my beauty products at the end of the hallway! The pictures below are ones I’ve yet to hang, but I also kind of like the way they frame this space.
So from left to right, top to bottom, we have..
Top shelf – Misc. bin that holds products ranging from ointments and salves to q-tips and ace bandages, this container stores a bit of everything; my makeup brushes, eye and lip liners, mascaras and shadow primers, extra nail polish remover, Evian mist.
2nd shelf – a trunk holding most of my palettes and false eyelashes, tissues, brush cleaners, lipsticks, glosses and balms.
3rd shelf – Zoya nail polish, misc. nail polish, travel-size lotions, more polish remover (this Zoya one with a pump is so great!!), nail art supplies, cotton balls.
4th shelf – loose eyeshadow powders, a tub filled with everything for a base (foundation, concealer, setting powder, etc.), my trunk that houses blushes, single eyeshadows, bronzers and cream shadows.

I took some detailed shots too, to show how I’ve arranged everything inside of the cases.

Loose shadows including MAC Pigments and Bare Minerals.

Lipsticks, stains, glosses, crayons, balms, etc.

Inside my trunk. Everything from cream, gel and powder blushes, bronzers, single eyeshadows, and lots of cream and liquid shadows.

The pink tub houses all of my Zoya ploshes, which is quickly reaching capacity. The other, larger tub holds all of my other polishes. I definitely need to do some editing here, as I’ve had some of those polishes for a while! Side note, I almost always do my own manicures, so I actually do use most of these on a fairly consistent basis, but I do only have ten fingers and ten toes to work on haha!

I hope this post has given you some inspiration on beauty organization and storage. I am always on the hunt for new ideas and ways to display/store my stash too, so please feel free to comment with any tips you’d like to share with me!

Zoya Nail Polish Newbies and Collection

February 8, 2015

It ’twas another great mail day on Friday, when I received not only my newest Birchbox, but also these crazy-pretty new polishes from Zoya! Zoya is such a great brand for many reasons (they’re Big 5 free, reasonably priced, long wearing, always offering online deals), but my favorite thing about them is their amazing color selection! Multiple times throughout the season, they put out perfectly-timed collections of new colors and finishes, and nearly every time, I come across a color that I just have to have.. Below, is a picture I posted on Instagram of the newest additions, and then my entire Zoya collection (for now!)

Clockwise from the top –
Taylor
Chantal
Veronica
Anais
Severine
Charlotte (the last 3 are minis and part of a special release)
I also bought a HUGE refill container of nail polish remover from them because I love that too! The little pump bottle makes polish removal a breeze.

As you can probably tell, I’ve been leaning a bit more towards the neutrals and pinks/purples. I’m pretty happy with the collection the way it is, but will need to purchase another bottle of Sabrina soon… It’s the perfect milky non-stark white and I’ve just about gotten all the use I can out of the bottle I have.

What is your favorite nail polish brand?
