Makeup Organization Ideas: Eyeliner

May 26th, 2010 by Karen 35 Comments

The other day I popped by a Joanne craft store and picked up this ArtBin Prism 6-Compartment Box (about $7) to organize eyeliners by color.

I used to store all of mine in a big cup, but it took forever to find the color I wanted. Even though I still have to dig a little with this system, it’s still much easier to find stuff than before. I like it so much I plan on buying another one for lip liners!

How do you like to store your eyeliners?
