When you’re at a loss for brush storage solutions, it’s easy to grab a
glass from your pantry and call it a day. But your makeup collection
needs to have a little personality sitting atop your vanity, and so
should the canisters and containers that hold your precious tools. Keep
these ideas in mind the next time you’re craving a tabletop makeover.
Geek-chic
Beakers aren’t just for chemical experiments anymore. A wide lip and a
load of different sizes make scientific glass containers an ideal
option for those who consider their vanity a makeshift beauty laboratory
(and full disclosure: they’re what we use and love). Shop this scientific glassware online or at a university bookstore.
Shabby-chic
Cute to boot, easy to obtain, and multipurpose in every way, mason
jars are one of our favorite makeshift brush holders. Available at
practically every craft store (and in bulk!), the embossed containers
can be spray painted gold for an extra luxe touch.
Art-chic
A makeup artist’s tools are just as important as a painter’s
pigment-splashed brushes. To mirror the artistry of your technique,
place your bristles in ceramic cups and pottery. You can easily find an
inexpensive set at your local Japantown (they serve double-duty as tea
cups as well!), or create a custom-colored cup at a
paint-your-own-pottery venue.
Sleek-chic
If simplicity is core to your identity, go slick and shiny with an
austere acrylic canister. Turn to Japanese minimalist brand MUJI, whose
popular clear acrylic trays are the epitome of simplicity in makeup
design. Their translucent acrylic pot lets you see through to your brush handles like glass, but its lightweight feel is easier to handle.
Cool brush storage. This is something that Manila makeup artist should consider.
