My Room and Make-up Storage at home

While I am home for the summer, this is the set up of my room! 

   Make-up collection set-up

My new acrylic drawers

Where I keep my perfume, lotion, jewelry, nail polish, and some hair accessories

February Favorites :)

 This is my first time doing one of these, I'm excited! Well I have been using a lot of new products that I LOVE. Some of these I have been using for a few months, but they are relatively new. 

My favorite foundation, maybe ever- Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous in 805 Ivory. This foundation has amazing coverage and still looks so natural. I will definitely be repurchasing this. 

I use this e.l.f HD Powder to set my under-eye concealer, and it is so great! And you can't beat the price.

Of course, Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette is a favorite! I use it almost everyday, and I love pretty much every color in the palette. 

Too Faced Milk Chocolate Soleil Bronzer is incredible to contour with or just to warm up your face. 

 MAC Pro Longwear Concealer (NW20) is the best concealer I have ever used. 

When I was in search of good highlight/contour products, I saw this product in Jaclyn Hill's 'How to Cream Contour' video, I knew I had to have it. It is so wonderful. It is bareMinerals Stroke of Light Eye Brightener in Luminous 2

I have two blushes, although I have been loving blushes in general lately, and they are Bobbi Brown blush in Tawny, and City Color Be Matte Blush in Fresh Melon. Both are so beautiful and pigmented. 

This is a sample size, but I have been loving Benefit Stay Don't Stray eye primer so much. I may just have to buy the full size.

 In the bottom right corner, we have my favorite highlighter lately, NYX Illuminator in Ritualistic. 

I have been loving so many of my brushes this month: 

Sigma F80- Flat Topped Kabuki that I have been using to apply foundation 

Sigma F86- Tapered Kabuki, I use this to apply my under-eye concealer and powder. 

Sigma F40- Large Angled Contour, I use this to apply blush and sometimes a contour. 

Sigma E55- Eye Shading brush. I use this to apply color to my lids. 

Sigma E60- Large Shader, I love using this brush to apply my base color to my whole eye and for applying my brow bone color. 

Urban Decay crease brush (That comes with the Naked 2 Palette) is my favorite brush to apply crease and outer-v. I try to use others, but I always come back to this one. 

My favorite powder is Rimmel London Stay Matte Powder in Translucent 

 Oh Anastasia Beverly Hill Brow Wiz in Soft Brown, you do wonders for those horrible brows of mine! 

A primer that I find myself reaching for almost everyday is e.l.f. Mineral Infused Face Primer. I goes on so smooth, and I just really like it (and the price). 

Two Hair/Face products that I love, 

Pantene Pro-V BB Cream is awesome, and I have seen some improvements in my hair for sure! 

Josie Maran Argan Oil- I use this product on my hair, and on my face when it is really in need of hydration. 

College Makeup Collection and Affordable Storage

My makeup collection is not huge, nor is the storage glamorous, but it works! When I move into my apartment in August I plan on getting a nice mirror and the Alex 9 Drawers and more grown up makeup storage. But for now this will do :) 

I store my makeup brushes in cups! 

This first glass is my eye brushes. I have more, but I put away the ones I don't use often or don't like (from my old makeup brush set) Some in that set, I kept though. So this is a mix of MAC, Sigma, and Shany Cosmetics Brushes.

 This cup is ugly, but it fits my face brushes decently well. It is a mix of my new Sigma brushes, Shany, a Real Techniques Blush Brush, and a knock-off MAC Hello Kitty brush (I thought it was real on ebay...silly me) 

I love this desk organizer that I got from Target!! I was like 5 dollars, and it holds my palettes, my everyday use items, and my eyeliners,brow pencil, some mascaras, and my lip liners. Plus, room for more palettes ;) 

I have the Coastal Scents 10 Blush Palette, The three Urban Decay Naked Palettes, Lorac Pro Palette, and TheBalm's Nude' Tude Palette. 

In my commonly used items section I have my Too Face Milk Chocolate Soliel Bronzer, my ELF bronzer and blush duo, my UD Naked Basics Palette, BH Cosmetics Concealer palette, BH Cosmetics brow kit, NYX Illuminator in Narcissistic, and Rimmel London Stay Matte Powder in Translucent 

I got my drawers I use for makeup, in the storage section in Target! It does the job mostly. The drawers are pretty messy. I'll have to find containers to hold things nicer when I get the Alex 9. 

Sorry these pictures are blurry! I can do a more detailed and nice makeup collection in the future. I just wanted to give a nice overview of how I store makeup in a dorm room. 

This top drawer is filled with various face products. Lots of blushes, concealer, foundation, and powders. 

This is my miscellaneous drawer! Samples, foil packets, masks, primers, other lip products, lashes, back-ups, etc. 

This is so blurry :( 

But it is my single eyeshadow and small palette drawer, I also have a few mascaras! 

I have a lot of MAC, and many other brands( NARS,Mica, BH Cosmetics, Stila, NYX, Smashbox, Benefit, etc.)

On the top of my organizer I have my lippies!! and some other important products. I got this container really cheap on Ebay.com. I have various lipsticks and stains, my face lotion, lip exfoliator, balms, Primer, MAC Fix+, an ELF powder, and usually my Beauty Blender (I took it down so it wasn't blocking the lip products!)
