How To Maximize Storage And Find What You Need In Your Bathroom

Have you ever taken longer to get ready because you couldn't find what you need? Or bought a new eye cream because you couldn't locate the one you currently have? You're not alone!

Let's talk about bathroom organization!

The first step, like always, is to categorize what you have. Easy categories to remember include skincare, makeup, body care products, basic toiletries, hair care, nails, and medicine. We spend a lot of money on our personal care items, so it helps to know what we have!

The next step is to customize your storage solutions to fit your needs. For example, some bathrooms have lots of drawers, others have cabinets, and some have a combination. When thinking about organizing products, we love to use products that are clear, that stack, or that spin.

Follow these four easy tips, and you, too, can have an organized bathroom:

  1. Tall drawers are perfect for tall bottles, but we recommend using dividers or tall bins to keep them from falling over.

  2. Cabinets are great for extra toiletries or items you don't reach for every day. If you lack shelving, you can make the most of vertical space by using stacking drawers (you can even get ones with dividers) - and don't forget to label them.

  3. Contain your makeup with clear drawer inserts - you can mix and match sizes to fit and hold your makeup categories perfectly.

  4. Clear divided turntables are perfect for upper shelves - you can have everything at your fingertips with just a quick spin.

Have fun making your space NEAT!
