There was a great topic over on the forum a few weeks ago discussing makeup storage.  We know many of you have an overflowing beauty stash, but how do you store them?

Are yours neatly and proudly displayed or are they stuffed in makeup bags or boxes, waiting for their owner to get inspired?

As always, Beauty Review are at your service, so we've trawled the depths of the internet to bring you our picks of beauty storage - from shop bought to home made, from new to upcycled, from stylish to quirky.

 Acrylic storage is incredibly popular at the moment.  It's stylish and practical - no more searching through your makeup bag!
 Turn an old broom into a funky brush holder!
 Upcycle a spice rack to display your nail polish collection.
 A cutlery tray is a great way to organise drawers!
 Display your fragrances on a tiered cupcake stand.
 Glass vases filled with beads (or coffee beans, stones, rice) are great for storing brushes.
     
 Stationary organisers make great makeup storage!
 Use a pretty letter rack to display palettes.
Does you wine rack ever have more than a bottle or two in it?  Thought not - put it to good use!
   
 Plastic storage drawers don't have to be boring - these ombred drawers are right on trend!  Make a magnetic makeup board for an artistic and practical feature.
 A multi-pocketed holder works brilliantly as a way to sort and store your stash.
     
 Drawer liners are great for organising and sorting your knick-knacks.
 Lined baskets are feminine and practical.
 Store nail polishes in a cookie jar!

 

So there's our 15 favourite storage ideas - how do you store your makeup and beauty products?  Why not snap a pic and post it to our Facebook page and inspire others?

Lots of great ideas here. I have a few acrylic make up storages and two pencil holder's for my brushes and eye pencils etc

Ooooh so pretty! I've been using some of the prettier Memeboxes for some of my storage. But now I really want a set of ombre drawers for extra storage. I sense an investment coming up :P

Heaps of these are so cute! Most of mine is just in a boring old drawer in my wardrobe but i would like to take it out and out it on display, especially my pretty jars and perfume bottles.

I currently don't have a lot of space or a big makeup collection. I would like a makeup desk, although I have a nice dresser and good lighting it is kinda low. One day when I have space and money I'm going to have a little beauty desk. For now I store my small collection in my dresser drawers in little bags. I love the look of these displays though.

Love these ideas-always battling my storage!

I have my nail polishes in a huge cookie jar and brushes in hurricane lamps. Loooove these storage ideas!

I currently use a painted cup (my grandmother painted) as my brush holder, but I think I should really have two - Clean & dirty. Ok, so next I need a drawer tidy & a spice rack - I LOVE the spice rack idea for my many nail polishes.

I need an organisational queen to come in an tidy up my collection! I have piles of stuff all jammed into drawers and train cases and storage boxes.. I love some of these ideas though especially the trolley drawers - just have nowhere to put them! Also I find when I try to display my fav items on top they all get super dusty within a few days and I cant dust them without knocking them over. So many first world problems haha

ZOMG! Storage envy!!!!! WANT!!! Must go home and create magic ;)

I really really really want an ombre plastic drawer trolley! So stylish and practical. My makeup is currently in a collection of acrylic storage, jars and trays. I would love more acryllic storage but right now it isn't in the budget sadly!

I need so many of these ideas to sort well... everything :) I see a shopping spree in the near future. Anyone know where to get the drawer liners from?

7th September, 2014

If only I had enough make up to fill all those drawers! Great ideas

7th September, 2014

Ooh I live these ideas!!! Hopefully I'll soon be inspired and DIY my own along the lines of some of these! :)

7th September, 2014

So many great ideas! I need a nice spot for my make up first, and then I will be doing some of these. I'm really keen to get some ombre drawers!

Thanks for that I will have a look. I just love the look of the wooden ones in BRs pic, have seen others but not as nice :)

So glad that not long after this post I made the Nail Polish rack a reality out of the coolest Spice rack - it has doors! And a couple of drawers. Over the last couple of months I also put one on my daughter's wall - keeps things a bit tidier
