Another tip for lipstick swatches for those who may not want to rub their lipstick on paper, like me. Take a closeup picture of your lips wearing the lipstick. Print all the lip swatches out, laminate them, then put them on a key ring. When you want to know what lipstick to wear with a certain outfit or makeup look you can just hold the card up to your lips. The color will be more true for you.
Em Cee not really. You can just arrange then on a word doc and then print out all the sheets and laminate the sheets. If you have a paper cutter you can cut a bunch at once. You're local library should have one you can use.
Marguerite Moreau yes, you could do this, but the colors would be muted. Also, the purpose of doing what I suggested is for anyone who may feel they'd be wasting lipstick, especially the costly brands.
My daughter is 13 years old and we watched you every day this week during Spring break. Right away she worked on her room, we went to the Dollar Star. What a great lady you are! Funny, inspiring, so cute with your husband, beautiful on the inside and out. Great role model for a mom and a girl learning how to make it growing up!
The dirty brush container is gonna be a game changer for me! My “solution” has been to lay dirty brushes down on a tissue on my vanity 😐 Thank you! Btw if you don’t have a pastel-specific sketchbook, you can use a regular one & when done swatching your lipstick, use a light coating of hairspray to set it!
I love how you are able to come up with these cool ideas for organization and that you will share with us and I just love how you used those boxes and made that makeup container.
I love the lazy Susan idea! That's geniuse and so versatile for different uses in the house. I made 2 of them and making 1 as a gift for my sisters vanity...
you rock!!! when I saw the time on this video I thought to myself " I don't have time to watch this vid", but in watching it next thing I know I was at the end of the video. thanks for posting and I will definitely use these ideas:). thumbs up and new subbie!!!.
Hey! So recently I've been buying way more makeup products,brushes.etc and I think all these ideas were good and it'll help me get everything beat and organized.thank you!
Aathmika Krishna yeah it's actually the home organizing wit Alejandra idea but she didn't gave her credit she used it as her own idea which is not!! Just saw the video!!
Wanza Beauty, you may not realize there could be 50 video's on YT which refer to the DIY Lazy Susan (cake pans w/marbles). That idea is as old as Alejandra. Unfortunately she won't be recognized as the inventor often.
Wanza Beauty Alejandra is annoying as all hell. I'm sure she isn't the original creator of it. isnt very hard to come up with it. also Alejandra steals ideas all the time anyway so it isn't a big deal.
You genius of a woman! I've been trying to do the whole lazy Susan thing for a year but I can't find them in store or online for a decent price. I am sending you the biggest high five and hug !!!
This video was amazing! Very simple yet ingenious ideas! I'm moving in with a roommate soon who is a very clean/tidy person and this video is perfect for me to get all of my things organized! Thanks for sharing!
lol. When I clean my dresser he said the same thing "you have your things all nice and where's my stuff 😂. This guys want to mark their territory too lol
I love this video! Im in the long process of organizing allllll my cosmetics. I love these ideas! I did the lazy susan with the marbles and it works sooooooo well and you can decorate it how you want!! Im doing the thing with the boxes and toilet paper rolls next! :) So cute!! I can tell you put a lot of effort into your videos. :)
Omg I was trying to look back and figure out when I found you….and I found this little gem instead. In your apartment!!! Making crafts! So cute!! And Ryan making a little appearance at the end. And seriously, you haven’t changed one little bit!! 😮 That really speaks to skin care working. 8 years is a long time. And two pregnancies and a wedding and buying and decorating a house. Anyway, it was later than this, just had to watch for fun. When I found you Carter was a baby. Now I have to watch more of your realllllly old videos. You’re adorable!
BlackXS2108 thank you! At first I wasn't sure about it, was it worth the time to make, but i've been using it almost every day to pick out my lipstick shade and it's SO helpful to have. Also helped me realize I have about 6 lipsticks that are almost the identical color ...I need to lay off light pinks haha!
OMG, the best video ever! I am such a clutter bug and I am going to the store right now. They are so easy, even I can do them thanks. Cute idea dude stuff:)
Emily Olson thank you! PS I think I'm going to do your 2014 favorites tag as a blog post this week, I really liked the questions - I just have all of my videos pre planned through the end of Feb!! ♡
I'm so happy I found your channel! Your DIY makeup storage is brilliant. I have the same storage problems, if I see my palettes I'll use them and constantly knocking over the foundations and primers. OMG I have the same plastic containers and yes they are too bulky and not easily accessible. Thank you!
OMG Thanks you! this is a revelation for me! I didn't know where to store my palettes, now I do! and that is thanks to you :) quite a blast for the first time on your channel!
5th day of 66 days for the new habit of your ORGANIZED lifestyle. video 5. 2015. now it is 2018! so AWESOME that you are still makin' videos for us! MERCI I do not "do makeup" like you're accustomed to doing, so this video is not as useful to me as your others have been, yet always a pleasant experience to watch you be creative and helpful!
I believe this is the first video I actually watched of yours and this is the one I absolutely fell in love with you! Keep doing what your doing! Your such an inspiration!
Love love your idea with the cake pans , brilliant !!! All you seem to find is wooden or glass , love the idea of the metal !!! And the simplicity of the decor , amazing !!! Thank you , very original :)
Hahaha he does have a point! Lol And that would be helpful. I have my hubby & 2 sons that need organized! I love the ideas you shared today & look forward to the series! P.S. What is your nail color in this video. Very pretty & neutral.
Karri Case Yea his stuff was actually more disorganized than mine- he needed a little help too! As for my nails I get shellac now (bc I film videos and my chipping nail polish was a constant struggle). I'm not sure the color name I will ask next time I go in :)
for the swatch book, why don't you just write the color name and brand before swatching? makes more sense for a lefty, so you have less chance of rubbing it off. or put the color on the right hand side of the page.....
Been searching high and low for a video like this! Cant wait to go to the craft store and get started!!! Thank you so much my dear.. may god bless you and your family! 😘😘😘
Also the makeup catalog is amazing . Idk how many times i have bought the same shade and brand at the drugstore. Its nice so i can see the colors but i love it because i can see what i already own.
I have never commented on "ANY" CZcams video I have viewed. But I want you to know I LOVE YOUR organization ideas, tips and creativity. You are awesome!
Oh my gusshh this is the best DYI video ever... Can't wait to get started on some of this projects. I'm starting to look into organizing my makeup since I recently moved it makes me sad and hate looking my makeup all over the apartment and the floor. Thank you so muchhhh you gave me super good ideas . So excitedddd.
I enjoyed your organization!! I like to use mason jars and old silver creamers from thrift stores. polish them up and they make your beauty tools look very pretty. I love the mirror idea... my next thrift store hunt! Thanks!
Definitely I love these video, my favorite DIY is the first one, the storage for makeup brushes!! And my second favorite is the "hair, body and nails cart" that's one of my favorite solutions 💜 hope more videos lime these xoxo -Valeria 🙋🏼
I have my makeup on that exact same 3 tierd cart on wheels! Works great! And I also have my shadow palettes in those dollar dividers from target! U r very creative! I love the brush n palette holder you made!

great idea...lots of work though haha

SingDea cool idea- that's definitely taking it to the next level!
Marguerite Moreau yes, you could do this, but the colors would be muted. Also, the purpose of doing what I suggested is for anyone who may feel they'd be wasting lipstick, especially the costly brands.
SingDea or you could use a lip brush to transfer the lipstick on paper.
My daughter is 13 years old and we watched you every day this week during Spring break. Right away she worked on her room, we went to the Dollar Star. What a great lady you are! Funny, inspiring, so cute with your husband, beautiful on the inside and out. Great role model for a mom and a girl learning how to make it growing up!
The fact that Ryan is as supportive as he is and is part of her videos is awesome! These were great DIYs..thank you for sharing!
Angie Huerta I know -and poor guy I always ask him to film after a long day of work when he's super tired too. What a trooper :)
Indeed! That's is love right there! =D #happysunday
👍
that homemade lazy Susan idea is pure genius!
I was thinking that!
+Tifani Powers yessssss

Tifani Powers I
Lol the end with your husband was adorable by the way
I would have NEVER thought of the diy lazy susan...VERY smart!!!
The dirty brush container is gonna be a game changer for me! My “solution” has been to lay dirty brushes down on a tissue on my vanity 😐 Thank you! Btw if you don’t have a pastel-specific sketchbook, you can use a regular one & when done swatching your lipstick, use a light coating of hairspray to set it!
Cute idea for a lazy Susan. A candle in the center would be pretty!

Aathmika Krishna yeah it's actually the home organizing wit Alejandra idea but she didn't gave her credit she used it as her own idea which is not!! Just saw the video!!

That lazy susan idea deserves an award! Thanks for the inspiration!

+GothicAvonLady97 so smart, will be doing that in the future!
Lefties Enemy: Spiral Notebook :-X
what i mean is if ur left handed you will have struggle to write in spiral notebook :D i just found it on yt
+Trinity people who write with their left hands are lefties. So spiral notebooks suck cuz your hand always runs on the metal spiral.
You had some great ideas! One of my favorite hacks of yours is the dog sweater out of an old sweater. Genius
LOL I love the Lazy Suzie...so creative...I never would have thought of using marbles to do that!!!
Hahaha! Love the "dude stuff"
Been searching high and low for a video like this! Cant wait to go to the craft store and get started!!! Thank you so much my dear.. may god bless you and your family! 😘😘😘
