Requested! Vanity Tour:

Hello my loves! Happy Saturday 🙂

This was requested by Stephanie (thank you doll!) – I tried to film a tour but editing was impossible for me to figure out so I opted for photos of everything.. It won’t be as thorough but once I get a better camera and learn how to edit, I do plan on doing some videos in the future!

IMG_5045I rearrange my vanity all the time so the layout changes quite often but this is how it looks at the moment!

IMG_5047On the wall to the left, I have a hanging travel bag that I got as a free gift from Ulta.. It keeps flopping down so I try to keep the sides taped up but you can see that doesn’t hold too well lol… In the top pocket I keep cords for my computer and camera, a few hair elastics and a perfume sample. Below that, extra makeup brushes that I don’t use often, bobby pins, my glasses and the Lorac Pro Palette.. In the pocket below that I have tons of free samples… Then on the wall I just keep some of my necklaces, bracelets and a clutch for my phone… That flip flop hanging is a bottle opener (cute, right?) 🙂

IMG_5048Okay so on the left side of the vanity, I have a jar of Q-Tips, an old mirror I don’t use often. And I currently keep my Sedona Lace brushes and a few other face brushes.. I’m trying to figure out an area where these will fit but still be quickly accessible.

IMG_5058Above the shelving: I keep most of my eyeliners, lip liners, a primer, teasing comb and my Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm stains.

IMG_5061In the top drawer: all my face, eye and lip primers.. Dermalogica’s Skin Perfect Primer, Laura Geller’s Spackle under make-up primer, Revlon’s Beyond Natural smoothing primer, Two Faced Primed & Poreless face primer, Shadow Insurance eyeshadow primer and the lip insurance primer, Benefit’s Porefessional, Lorac’s Behind The Scenes eye primer, NP Set eye primer, and Urban Decay’s eyeshadow Primer Potion. I also have an Estée Lauder Lift cream in the back of the drawer, I haven’t used it yet.

IMG_5062The second drawer: all my concealers – Sonia Kashuk’s Hidden Agenda concealer palette, Covergirl & Olay Simply Ageless eye concealer and the concealer balm, Maybelline’s Instant Age Rewind concealer in the brightener shade, Fit Me concealer and the Dream Lumi in Radiant, Rimmel’s Match Perfection, Hard Candy’s Glamoflauge, Tarte’s Amazonian Clay Waterproof concealer, and Loreal True Match crayon concealer.

IMG_5063In the last drawer: my foundations – two shades of Revlon Colorstay, Covergirl Stay Fabulous 3-in-1, Loreal True Match, and Maybelline’s Mineral Powder foundation.

IMG_5050I got the two white storage containers from the dollar store for $5 each! The box in the center is full of products I grab for daily, new products I want to try and products I don’t use often but want to start using. I also always keep a bottle of hand sanitizer there. Currently in the box: ELF Mineral Infused face primer, Revlon Colorstay Whipped foundation, ELF’s HD powder, Milani baked blush in Luminoso, Physician’s Formula Mineral Wear blush in Natural, Rimmel’s Stay Matte powder, NYC’s bronzer in Sunny, Maybelline Masterprecise eyeliner pen, Jordana Fabuliner, Vaseline Cocoa Butter lip therapy, NYX’s single matte shadow in Betrayal, and the ELF brow kit.

IMG_5060I keep the rest of my brushes here, along with a comb, nail file, my Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray, the Naked Basics palette and theBalm’s Meet Matt(e) palette since I use them almost daily.

IMG_5059Above the shelving on the right: my Juicy Couture perfume, and both Naked palettes.

IMG_5064Top drawer: my mascaras – two Almay Get Up & Grows, Maybelline’s original Colossal Volume Express, Mega Plush, and The Rocket, Physician’s Forumla Organic Wear and samples of Urban Decay’s Supercurl Curling mascara and Two Faced’s Lashgasm. I also keep Neosporin in this drawer (because I burn myself with the curling iron EVERY. SINGLE. TIME!)

IMG_5065Second drawer: blushes  (I don’t own any high end blushes!) – Wet N Wild’s Heather Silk, Mellow Wine and Pearlescent Pink, Elf blushes in Candid Coral, Mellow Mauve and Pink Passion, I also keep my ELF Contouring Blush & Bronzer in here, as well as a NYX blush in Peach.

IMG_5066The bottom drawer: most of my favorite lipsticks – Rimmel’s Lasting Finish in Pink Blush, Rimmel By Kate Moss in 101, Loreal Color Riche in Fairest Nude, Covergirl Lip Perfection in Divine, a bunch of Maybelline Vivid’s, Milani Color Statement in Nude Creme, and a few Revlon Superlustrous glosses.

IMG_5056In the left-hand drawer of my vanity: a bunch of foundations I never use/don’t like, eyeshadow palettes (Sedona Lace & Wet N Wild trios), lip glosses, lipsticks, eyeliners & lipliners, my Hard Candy bronzer (highlight) in Tiki, a Revlon whipped foundation that’s currently too light, my Urban Decay Vice palette and a bunch of backups of my favorite products.

IMG_5057In the right-hand drawer, a bunch of hair elastics, Q-tips, a few single eyeshadows, my Maybelline Color Tattoos, a couple more Wet N Wild eyeshadows, then in the next bin I keep eyelashes as well as all my eyebrow stuff, a few lip balms. The next two bins are miscellaneous.. Some mascaras I don’t like, tape, Milani’s brow kit, pencil sharpener, just random stuff.. Then I keep my Nume Titan-3 Wand (review coming soon) and some hair clips.

So, that’s about it! Below my vanity I keep my wax pot and supplies, as well as a few bins of makeup for my kit… To the left of the desk, I have a storage thing from Walmart that I keep nail polish in – but it’s a mess so I didn’t take a picture of it! LOL Hope you guys enjoyed, I definitely want to do a more in-depth tour once I figure out how to edit videos!

Here’s a cute photo I posted on instagram when I first set the vanity up… As you can see, it’s already been rearranged since then 🙂

Have a great weekend!!

  1. I, too, wish I had space for a vanity like this! Thanks for sharing. Where exactly did you get those white storage containers w/ drawers? Was it at Dollar General? I’ve been looking for something just like that but all I can find are expensive ones at The Container Store!

      1. I have gone through 2 of the 3.4 ounce bottles before! Haha I love it so much 🙂 Right now I just have it in the rollerball size because I am trying out some other perfumes but this one def is a staple in my collection!

      2. I recently got a rollerball in Coach’s Poppy, have you smelled that one? I love it! I’ll probably get that next in a larger size. I’m turning into a perfume junkie lol
