Ideas for Organizing and Displaying Your Lipstick

Ideas for Organizing and Displaying Your Lipstick

When your makeup is disorganized, it seems to cost you a few minutes every day. And when it comes to lipstick, hunting down the perfect shade when you’re in a hurry can be a real time waster. Save yourself a little time for breakfast every morning by organizing your lipsticks where you can easily see the colors and don’t have to go digging in a drawer or purse. Of course, you can also find ways to organize your makeup that look great with your decor. Here are a few ideas, and make sure to head to Modernize for more decor inspiration and organizing solutions.

Magnetic Makeup Board




This DIY solution is convenient and adds character to your bathroom or vanity. Plus, it saves storage space! Just cover a metal baking sheet in the fabric of your choice and attach magnets to your lipsticks. No more digging at the bottom of your chaotic lipstick basket for the perfect shade. For a little extra personality, put a fun frame around your board. You can also pop magnets onto your other most-used items for optimal organization.

Empty Candle Jars

Soak a used candle jar in warm water, then scrape out the wax with a butter knife and pop out the wick. Wash it out with dish soap and water, then stash your lipsticks label side up for easy access.

Platter or Cake Stand


Just like the magnetic board, this DIY trick makes use of unused kitchen supplies or cheap dollar store finds. Grab a fancy looking platter or cake stand and gather all of your lipsticks for something reminiscent of a vintage vanity. If you don’t have many, stand them up next to a fancy perfume or lotion bottle. If you have more than you can even keep straight, place them horizontally with the labels facing toward you. To make the one you need easier to find, group them by color for a little extra coordination.

DIY Pillbox Holder

Buy two pillboxes and cut the lids and bottoms off of one, then just the tops of the other. Double stack the containers so that the top one is open faced. Glue them, then spray paint them the color of your choice. You can do this with as many boxes as you need to have enough holders for your lipsticks stash. This is a very affordable and sturdy storage solution, and not hard to make. Find a tutorial here. You can also cut out the work and buy a handy little holder specifically made for lipsticks, like this one from Anthropologie.

My today’s post will definitely help me and you all.. Introducing Sophie Andersen and her some easy  tips to get a perfect body.

Sophie’s word
Getting ready for summer? If you want to show off your amazing body on the beach or you just want to get in shape and lead a healthier life, here are some tips to help you get your body to perfection.


  • Morning Workout
It only takes about 10 minutes to activate all the muscles in your body, increase metabolism and burn fat. So, start the day by training your muscles on strategic positions of your body. Strong abs will not only make your body more firm and stable, but also help you achieve that desired corset shape.
  • Breakfast
A healthy breakfast is crucial for a good body. The first meal of the day increases metabolism and burns fat. It will also prevent some bad habits like eating a donut as a snack after lunch. If you feel bloated, the cause might be dairy products. You should either reduce or avoid them completely. Instead, you can eat some oatmeal, an almond cranberry muffin, or cinnamon pancakes.
  • Food to Avoid
When planning your meals, you should avoid food that makes you bloated such as greasy and salty food, sodas, and even some types of fruits and vegetables. Instead, choose food that decreases our stomach size such as cucumber, asparagus and oats.
  • Fewer Calories
Adjust your diet so that you aren’t left with extra calories and still have enough energy. Choose food that will make you full, but be careful not to overdo it and take unnecessary calories. Introduce nuts in your diet, as well as oatmeal, apples, green vegetables such as spinach, seeds, eggs, yogurt, water, salmon, lemon, soup and so on. Calorie counting tools such as Calorie King can help you to make your diet plan.
  • Cardio
Any form of exercise is good and recommended. High intensity workout is most efficient as they burn the most calories in a short time period. Especially when done regularly. That is why you need to introduce high intensity cardio to your regular workout plan. Increase the slant and speed of your treadmill and try to run for 45 minutes. If you think it’s too much, adjust it to your current shape.
  • Massage
If you’re fighting cellulite, then a good massage can do wonders. It’s best to massage your body when your muscles are relaxed, for example, after a warm bath. Pinch and squeeze the parts of your body with cellulite and finish off with smooth soft motions. Saunas are also helpful, as well as some products that sink quickly into your skin, such as clay and Botox.
  • Coffee is great
Caffeine does wonders for fighting cellulite. It helps us get moving in the morning, wakes us up and can help move those fat cells in our body. But  it’s not just drinking coffee that helps fight cellulite. Use coffee to make a paste and gently scrub it into the parts of your body with cellulite. The paste will fall off quickly but it will be effective. To ensure that it doesn’t fall off too quick, cover it with sea weed used for detoxification. Leave it for  few minutes and then rinse. Check out this DIYscrubs and try to make them in your kitchen.
