Use the C.H.A.O.S Method to get your makeup organized

C- Categorize

Take everything out of your drawer and put like items with like items. That means mascara with mascara, lipsticks with lipsticks, etc. 

H- Hurtful or Helpful

What emotion does your makeup elicit? Do you like wearing it; does it make you feel good?

A- Action

Take action once you’ve decided how you feel about each item. Keep the Make-up you love and Discard expired make-up (so you don’t get a nasty rash on your face) and what you don’t like.

Here are some common make-up expiration dates

O- Organize

We like trays like these to help keep our makeup organized. They come in various sizes, so be sure to measure the space before ordering. 


S- Simplify

Label each tray to set yourself up for success in the mornings and for ease of retrieval. 


After the parades, costumes, and other festivities, ensure your mardi gras decorations are organized. 

Three tips to keep it organized:

  1. Use a Storage bin with dividers – this will make it easy to separate different colors and types of beads. Keep your costumes in good condition for next year by wrapping in plastic for next year.

  2. Go Vertical – Use a pegboard so you can hang your mardi gras jewelry and beads on the wall free of tangles

  3. Use Space bags – to keep your costumes in good condition for next year and free from dirt and debris.

Above all else, make sure you use a purple bin!
