College Countdown: Packing Makeup and Toilitries

Makeup

So this is where I keep all of my Makeup! It was a basic small five drawer set with clear drawers from Walmart, and then I took tacky paper which I got from the dollar bin at Target and washi tape and decorated it! I plan to label the drawers with chalkboard labels, but I have bad handwriting so I decided to wait and lett someone else write on them...

The top drawer is my most accessed face base products drawer!

Face

Primer
Full Coverage Foundation
Lighter Coverage BB Cream/Tinted Moisturizer
Under Eye Concealer
Spot Concealer
Pressed Powder

The second drawer contains all of my bluch, bronzer, and highlight products.

Cheeks

Blush
Highlight
Bronzer

In the back of my desk organizer I keep my letter organizer with my eyeshadow palletes

Eyeshadow

Eye Primer
Palletes - I suggest bringing primarily your favorite pallete, such as my Naked 3, instead of dealing with the clutter of single eyeshadows (even though I brought a few of those too...)
Cream Eyeshadow

This is my cluttered drawer with my eyeliner, mascara, and single eyeshadows

Eyeliner - These are just suggestions of things I use often, you obviously bring whatever works for you

Brown Pencil
Black Pencil
Liquid/Gel Eyeliner
Colorful - Something fun!
White - For the waterline

Mascara - I always bring much too much mascara... Maybe limit yourself to a waterproof and non-waterproof

My favorite drawer!

Lipgloss
Lipstick
