Eureka Moment: For the Hairstylists and Makeup Artists

At times, I need to do both hair and makeup, and juggling between  hair brushes, clips and makeup brushes is the hardest thing to do and not to forget, holding hot iron on my other hand is quite dangerous!  Fainting is NEVER an option so I need to organize myself before I burn my own hand or my client's head!

Thanks to Daiso and Japan Home Center, I find so many "Eureka Moments" inside the store.  2 years ago, I purchased a tool bag in a whim not knowing what to do with it.  As I had my wedding  gig and I needed to be there near the Bride for retouch, carrying the whole train case is not convenient and carrying a mini pouch or bag is a hassle as I needed both of my hands free!  I'm glad I got creative and remembered the tool bag I bought and slipped it into a belt and VOILA!  Instant belt organizer! 


How this looks without plastic


As I went through one gig to another, I found that one tool bag is not enough,...


so I repurchased !  Check out my current "retouch pouch"


I actually own 3 too bags now!  All you need is a nice durable belt to hold these tool bags!  And you're ready to go!  Glad my belt color and design matches the tool bag!  It's fate!

Eureka moment for finding these priced only for Php88.00 (approx $2.00) per piece!  Quality is great, very durable and my partner hairstylist sometimes put his hot curling iron inside and so far he wasn't hurt and the tool bag is still in good condition!  (It is advisable not to do this  for safety's sake).

Do you agree that I put this on Eureka moment for our hairstylist and makeup artist friends out there?  I think it deserves this spot!




Keep smilin'
Stay happy!

  13. Ah if only we had Daiso here! I do have a brush belt from IMATS but these look more handy since they can be stacked like that for more room.
