Another tip for lipstick swatches for those who may not want to rub their lipstick on paper, like me. Take a closeup picture of your lips wearing the lipstick. Print all the lip swatches out, laminate them, then put them on a key ring. When you want to know what lipstick to wear with a certain outfit or makeup look you can just hold the card up to your lips. The color will be more true for you.
Em Cee not really. You can just arrange then on a word doc and then print out all the sheets and laminate the sheets. If you have a paper cutter you can cut a bunch at once. You're local library should have one you can use.
Marguerite Moreau yes, you could do this, but the colors would be muted. Also, the purpose of doing what I suggested is for anyone who may feel they'd be wasting lipstick, especially the costly brands.
My daughter is 13 years old and we watched you every day this week during Spring break. Right away she worked on her room, we went to the Dollar Star. What a great lady you are! Funny, inspiring, so cute with your husband, beautiful on the inside and out. Great role model for a mom and a girl learning how to make it growing up!
I believe this is the first video I actually watched of yours and this is the one I absolutely fell in love with you! Keep doing what your doing! Your such an inspiration!
I have never commented on "ANY" TH-cam video I have viewed. But I want you to know I LOVE YOUR organization ideas, tips and creativity. You are awesome!
5th day of 66 days for the new habit of your ORGANIZED lifestyle. video 5. 2015. now it is 2018! so AWESOME that you are still makin' videos for us! MERCI I do not "do makeup" like you're accustomed to doing, so this video is not as useful to me as your others have been, yet always a pleasant experience to watch you be creative and helpful!
Aathmika Krishna yeah it's actually the home organizing wit Alejandra idea but she didn't gave her credit she used it as her own idea which is not!! Just saw the video!!
Wanza Beauty, you may not realize there could be 50 video's on YT which refer to the DIY Lazy Susan (cake pans w/marbles). That idea is as old as Alejandra. Unfortunately she won't be recognized as the inventor often.
Wanza Beauty Alejandra is annoying as all hell. I'm sure she isn't the original creator of it. isnt very hard to come up with it. also Alejandra steals ideas all the time anyway so it isn't a big deal.
you rock!!! when I saw the time on this video I thought to myself " I don't have time to watch this vid", but in watching it next thing I know I was at the end of the video. thanks for posting and I will definitely use these ideas:). thumbs up and new subbie!!!.
I love this video! Im in the long process of organizing allllll my cosmetics. I love these ideas! I did the lazy susan with the marbles and it works sooooooo well and you can decorate it how you want!! Im doing the thing with the boxes and toilet paper rolls next! :) So cute!! I can tell you put a lot of effort into your videos. :)
Love love your idea with the cake pans , brilliant !!! All you seem to find is wooden or glass , love the idea of the metal !!! And the simplicity of the decor , amazing !!! Thank you , very original :)
I love how you are able to come up with these cool ideas for organization and that you will share with us and I just love how you used those boxes and made that makeup container.
your honestly amazing, I only subscribed today and I'm already a huge fan, how do you get so many ideas!!! I have a really really messy bedroom and I'm trying to look for vids to make it easier and I watched your, "desk organisation" "cleaning my room" "makeup storage ideas" "diy cleaning products" and omg I'm actually excited to clean my room!! thankyou so much!!
Emily Olson thank you! PS I think I'm going to do your 2014 favorites tag as a blog post this week, I really liked the questions - I just have all of my videos pre planned through the end of Feb!! ♡
Hey! So recently I've been buying way more makeup products,brushes.etc and I think all these ideas were good and it'll help me get everything beat and organized.thank you!
lol. When I clean my dresser he said the same thing "you have your things all nice and where's my stuff 😂. This guys want to mark their territory too lol
wow, you are so smart!! This was one of the the only useful makeup videos that I've seen on youtube that has more creative ways of makeup storage than the standard ones you see everywhere. Thanks a heap, hope you have a wonderful day! :D xxx
BlackXS2108 thank you! At first I wasn't sure about it, was it worth the time to make, but i've been using it almost every day to pick out my lipstick shade and it's SO helpful to have. Also helped me realize I have about 6 lipsticks that are almost the identical color ...I need to lay off light pinks haha!
love ur videos. I use your storage ideas just not in the same rooms. back story: my skin went crazy so little old lady me goes to dermatologist for first time in my life. She examed my skin and asked "where do you store and/or put on your make-up?" uhhhh "in bathroom" she stopped her exam and gave me very gross info that made me go home and move everything out of bathroom but cleaning supplies and towel closet items. so, back to all ur organization tips. anything that couldn't be washed was remade and planned with ur vids. Reorganized my bedroom, and, although not quite finished yet, you literally saved me so much money for things I could easily remake or organize using your ideas and I swear iit is looking fab..... cause of you. A cute washable basket is filled w bath products to take when I shower, etc, and comes back out when through. My skin has already cleared up. No clutter on vanity. I have a library of your tips, tricks, organizations and no more skin issues. thanks for sharing. Washed all brushes, containers, and made a swatch book for lip sticks, glosses, foundations and nail polishes. Took longer to dry and I used a 3 ring binder with sectioned off areas and painted the cover with acrylics. thank you.
OMG, the best video ever! I am such a clutter bug and I am going to the store right now. They are so easy, even I can do them thanks. Cute idea dude stuff:)
You are brilliant! I am so thankful that you make these videos because I refer back to them over and over You have movie star good looks and should be on a major network. You will be discovered. Love the end of each video too, because my husband can relate
Hello, fellow lefty! I've found the easiest way to handle the left-hander's smudge situation is to write your description first, then smudge your lipstick afterward (I realize it's too late for you now, but maybe if you re-make your smudge book, it's something to keep in mind). You could also put the smudge on the right-hand margin instead of the left. I often find that it is super helpful to do things "backwards" (inspired by Leonardo DaVinci) to be a lefty in a right-handed world.
This is probably the best DIY makeup storage videos I've ever watched! Such cute ideas!!! I really love the makeup brush boxes - gonna have to try that asap! Thanks!
Also the makeup catalog is amazing . Idk how many times i have bought the same shade and brand at the drugstore. Its nice so i can see the colors but i love it because i can see what i already own.
Hahaha he does have a point! Lol And that would be helpful. I have my hubby & 2 sons that need organized! I love the ideas you shared today & look forward to the series! P.S. What is your nail color in this video. Very pretty & neutral.
Karri Case Yea his stuff was actually more disorganized than mine- he needed a little help too! As for my nails I get shellac now (bc I film videos and my chipping nail polish was a constant struggle). I'm not sure the color name I will ask next time I go in :)
I'm officially obsessed just bc of this video...I'm in the mindset that I have to organize and declutter. This video is so going to help, but I'm a little bummed that I already bought a few new containers because your diy's were amazing. Totally subbed btw.
I have my makeup on that exact same 3 tierd cart on wheels! Works great! And I also have my shadow palettes in those dollar dividers from target! U r very creative! I love the brush n palette holder you made!
for the swatch book, why don't you just write the color name and brand before swatching? makes more sense for a lefty, so you have less chance of rubbing it off. or put the color on the right hand side of the page.....
I love that unlike some gurus you put care into your DIYs and make sure they look precise and pretty and well done! I especially loved the first DIY! You have definitely earned a subscriber! Thank you for a great video!
The dirty brush container is gonna be a game changer for me! My “solution” has been to lay dirty brushes down on a tissue on my vanity 😐 Thank you! Btw if you don’t have a pastel-specific sketchbook, you can use a regular one & when done swatching your lipstick, use a light coating of hairspray to set it!
Ugh babe I am completely in love with your channel, everything you do is unique in such a fun and innovative way, I always look forward to watching your videos :) Suuuuper glad I found you on TH-cam, you're amazing! xox
I'm so happy I found your channel! Your DIY makeup storage is brilliant. I have the same storage problems, if I see my palettes I'll use them and constantly knocking over the foundations and primers. OMG I have the same plastic containers and yes they are too bulky and not easily accessible. Thank you!
This video was amazing! Very simple yet ingenious ideas! I'm moving in with a roommate soon who is a very clean/tidy person and this video is perfect for me to get all of my things organized! Thanks for sharing!
I enjoyed your organization!! I like to use mason jars and old silver creamers from thrift stores. polish them up and they make your beauty tools look very pretty. I love the mirror idea... my next thrift store hunt! Thanks!
OMG!! Cute idea for your eye shawdows and make up brushes and the lazy susan, your so creative girl!! Thanks for making this video because my make up items are all over, so this is great :)

great idea...lots of work though haha
Em Cee not really. You can just arrange then on a word doc and then print out all the sheets and laminate the sheets. If you have a paper cutter you can cut a bunch at once. You're local library should have one you can use.
SingDea cool idea- that's definitely taking it to the next level!
Marguerite Moreau yes, you could do this, but the colors would be muted. Also, the purpose of doing what I suggested is for anyone who may feel they'd be wasting lipstick, especially the costly brands.
SingDea or you could use a lip brush to transfer the lipstick on paper.
The fact that Ryan is as supportive as he is and is part of her videos is awesome! These were great DIYs..thank you for sharing!
Angie Huerta I know -and poor guy I always ask him to film after a long day of work when he's super tired too. What a trooper :)
Indeed! That's is love right there! =D #happysunday

Thank you ! 😉😉 for the idea

Lefties Enemy: Spiral Notebook :-X
what i mean is if ur left handed you will have struggle to write in spiral notebook :D i just found it on yt
+Trinity people who write with their left hands are lefties. So spiral notebooks suck cuz your hand always runs on the metal spiral.
Loved the idea of using energy bar boxes for makeup storage.
