Eureka Moment: Big Time Make-Up Storage

If you are fond of reading beauty blogs and watching YouTube videos on beauty.  You probably knew about this "storage system" Makeup Gurus are going gaga for!  I remembered wanting this myself and imagined what I will put in here!  Back-ups probably?

I may be late with my Eureka Moment but I finally found them locally!  At Handyman (Ronbinson's Otis Branch) for Php2,500 (approx $59.50).   You may also check  Sogeshome for international readers.

As colorful as my life is, I actually prefer the white frost version as we all know, most of our make-up are colorful and I like to see a bit on what's inside without sliding the drawer outwards!

The aluminum frame makes the drawer quite stable!  I like the fact that I can put a sticker and label them by Foundation, Powders, Blushers, Lipsticks, etc...

The negative part that I can say for now is that dust can easily get inside!


Still, its nice to see them available locally! The price maybe shocking at first glance but come to think of it, I've been purchasing so many storage stuffs and it actually boils down to paying as much as this drawer!

I gave this a pass for now as I currently own a 5 layered plastic drawer where I store all my back-ups!  If you don't own one and you plan to, this is one product to consider! 

What's your make-up storage?
Keep smilin'
Stay happy

  1. I'm giving this a pass since I agree that dust will easily get inside. Plus more spaces means more makeup and that would mean I have to buy more.

  5. Hi Nikki! Great timing! I might look into this cause I have been looking for a nice storage for make-ups and my other beauty essentials.
    I always check your blog regularly and I'm addicted to make-ups, nail polishes and other facial products! You are contagious! hahaha... But I need to slow down a bit coz my husband might be annoyed already! :)

  9. Pammy is soooo right. More storage means more makeup to fill it in lol.

    But I really like this storage drawer. It's a bit expensive but it's nice.

  14. I like the number of drawers and the fact that there are wheels but the lack of cover means more dust. Love the colors though! I'm using those plastic document drawers at the moment :)

  16. Pammy, I know, I wish they can make a similar one but make the containers bigger so it close tightly?

  23. i love this one! i oly have the 4 tier one. I felt I got ripped off with the price I bought mine! way cheaper our there.:( but not really recommended if you have a toddler for it has caster wheels that facilitate trolley to be move and wheeled abround easily.

  24. Anonymous, no, I don't have a mini ref but I do have a drawer that's 5 tier high which is NEVER been seen by a sunlight! hahaha I also put tiny silica gels.

    Miss Krimson, lucky you guys have it cheaper there

    dHeL, O agree. anytime, it can be pushed or tumbled all over and good bye gorgeous makeup! :)
