When you find a lipstick formula that's creamy, pigmented, and long-wearing, do you buy every color? Do you have every Urban Decay palette from Naked to Gwen Stefani to Electric? Do you have more eye and lip liners than pens and pencils in your home? If you can relate to any of these, you might be a beauty junkie, and we know your struggles. It can be a challenge to find space for all your beloved beauty products, and keeping it all organized is another problem entirely. Luckily, YouTuber Jamie Paige Beauty has some great tips on making an ideal makeup battle station. After you see her impressive collection, read on for the best ways to organize your beauty shrine.

  1. Purchase a vanity with a lot of drawers. If you can't find one, many beauty vloggers custom create one using Ikea Alex drawers.
  2. Invest in acrylic makeup organizers to keep your favorite products easy to find and in plain sight.
  3. Use vertical storage to save counter space on your vanity. These lipstick towers fit 84 lipsticks while taking up minimal space.
  4. Use decorative mugs and cups to hold your favorite eyeliners and small brushes.
  5. Keep your daily essentials and the new products you want to test out front and center.
  6. Store makeup remover on your vanity to clean up any messes and touch up your makeup.
  7. Use Ikea Socker plant holders to hold eyeliners and brushes.
  8. Rely on plant filler beads to make your smaller brushes stand up straight.
  9. Put your favorite products in your top drawers, organized by type. Organize the rest of your drawers by type of product.
  10. Use boxes within drawers to separate and organize your makeup.
  11. Depotting into a Z-palette is a great way to save space if you have a lot of single eye shadows.
