How I Organise my Lipsticks

how to store mac lipsticks

Hi Everyone, πŸ™‚

I have struggled to arrange my lipsticks (especially MAC) for the longest time. All MAC Lipsticks come in the same black packaging. So the only option you have is to remember each lipstick by name. For a few lipsticks, it is possible but when you have a ton of look-alike lipsticks, it is difficult. I found this little Audrey Hepburn trunk a few days back and I instantly knew that this is the best fit for my lipsticks.

I have put sticky labels on the caps and marked the top with the lipstick itself. I’d probably color co-ordinate them but at the moment that’s how they look. πŸ˜€ I wish I’d got circular labels but I couldn’t so… This might not be the prettiest thing to do to your lipsticks but this totally makes sense to me. My regular everyday lipsticks stand in an acrylic lipstick stand. This is more for trial and review purposes. πŸ˜€

      1. yeah but I own 22 shades Rati so I’l just apply some color on top of the nail polish bottle’s lids to pick colors quick without taking out each πŸ˜‰ when I’m in hurry…….. πŸ˜‰ *haan ji*

  2. Ratiii! Amazing post this is…

  4. The box The box WOW. *happy dance* *happy dance* *happy dance* *happy dance* *happy dance* *happy dance* *happy dance* *happy dance* The lippies are stuff of dreams. sighs.

  5. heyya Rati….awesome post.. *woot* *woot* .did u buy that box from Select City??? I saw one shop selling such trunk boxes last week only and thought of buying one for myself also…now will def buy!! *jogging* *jogging* And regarding the labels…what you could do is take a punching machine and punch out the stickers in small circular shapes and then use them after coloring….this way they would like more neat!! *happy dance* *happy dance* *happydance* *happydance*

    1. wouldn’t punching machine labels would be too tinyy?? but great idea . I’d check if i can find a punching machine with bigger holes. :)) yeah there was a stall in select city last week. got it from there only :))

      1. yay…even I saw it last week only…so I think u bought it from the same shop….going today only but its raining cats and dogs here…what to do… *scared* *scared* ….
        And I think the labels would do fine….and u can look for machines with bigger die holes…. *puchhi* *puchhi*

  6. OOO EMMM JEE.. how tempting that looks.. i keep my lippies in a big square basket and since i have them in manageable number i remember their shades….. πŸ˜› πŸ˜›

  7. Hi Rati,
    Your posts always make for such informative reads. I loved the Audrey Hepburn trunk. It’s very classy! Did the kiosk you pick it up from have a name? I’m from Mumbai but perhaps I can hunt for it here as well.Thanks and keep the lovely posts coming!

  8. Hi Rati,
    i have been following this blog since long…once i asked something n it didnt get posted so i thght may b i dont know how to post a comment…nyways….m trying again now..
    i must say u r a diva…….(r u from army background..so organised…..)

  9. Lovely idea and the trunk is so cute *clap* *clap* all I can say is that you have a great taste for finer things in life *clap* truly appreciate you πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

  10. Nice ideas Rati… *pompom* *pompom* and I too keep my lipsticks in black tin box but as I don’t have these many lipsticks like you I am able to identify them easily *haan ji*

    I know its difficult to get round stickers but if you will cut these rectangular stickers diagonally you will get 2 triangles *specs* and those can be placed going round the cap of lipstick that will look more neat I feel πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ try if time permits

    1. yeah but then they’d be on the sides again… I wanted them to be on the top. *scared* but I’d try if I plan to re-do them. Thanks :))

  11. I am dying to see this lipstick collection of your Rati! OH MY! Soooo Beautiful! I only have these in my dreams. Hihihi. I like the idea of stickers on cap. πŸ˜€

  13. Loved the little lippy briefcase *drool* . The idea shows how devised and organized is our Rati *duh* . Sometimes with little modifications like these we end up saving so much time in our lives and it feels good too when u have a less cluttered life. organization is the first step towards peace of mind.
