Kat Oct 08 06 07:53 pm Link Oct 08 06 07:57 pm Link I wanted so badly to share photos of my lovely OCD kit organizing skills, but its actually shameful how little product I have right now. My palettes are practically running on empty. Damn rent being so high. I need to replenish and stop spending my precious kit fees on mcdonalds. LMAO Oct 08 06 09:40 pm Link Everyones Makeup is so organized! Thanks for the good tips now I know how to organize everything! Thanks for all your guys wonderful tips! Oct 18 06 12:24 am Link Man, do I have to get out there and find some organizers...all the containers you guys have...you're so lucky you live in a MAJOR METROPOLIS...the shopping must be amazing. I'm jealous! Does anyone have any links for ONLINE container and palette stuff? ANY links would be appreciated! Thanks so much for everyone taking pics and the time to share everything with us. Oct 18 06 12:40 am Link I just wanted to say thank you to everything that has posted pictures of there kits big and small! It really has helped me look at my kit in a different way!

It's sizing was about the size two Altoid boxes stacked on top of eachother would be. The edging of the pallet was rounded off. It was very attractive and small, held exactly the same amount of product as the pallettes you guys have. I wish they still made it. Just a little FYI for no apparent reason but boredom. Oct 19 06 10:18 pm Link Nov 10 06 01:00 am Link Always made up- I love your play-by-play action quotes. I will post mine (with my crappy camera phone) this week.

Every time I stop by this forum I think that I should do it more often )) As I've almost missed all the fun you guys are having here THANK YOU for starting this thread and for keeping it up, sharing this insiders secrets It makes me want to go ahead and re-organize my stuff too! Again ..... I'm waaay too far from perfection!! Best, O. Nov 14 06 02:48 am Link I just got a 3 piece set of the Heys XL series luggage (pink). I am using the 2 largest suitcases. The big one (30 inch i think) I have my 2 Art Bin Hip Roof Boxes one for foundations-blushes and lipsticks and the other carrys my eye makeup. It also fits my brush case which I customized to fit my many, many brushes. The second suitcase carries my 2 set bags which are from Michaels-one for hair stuff and the other one for set up incidentals-cleanser-moisturizer. etc. Then I put each of those bags in a very large zip lock bag for transporting so the stuff doesn't fall out when it gets tipped up to transport in the suitcase. I will take some pics when I get a chance. I know I am still carrying way to much stuff but I am a makeup junkie. LOL Nov 14 06 09:14 am Link That is the most amazing kit I have ever seen!!!

Still working on customizeing the whole kit and lightening the load. Nov 15 06 02:41 pm Link Nov 16 06 10:53 am Link I have read this thread very carefully and it help me so much while building my kit (still am). I live in Paris, France, and I found that in Muji stores (japanese design, I dont know if there is some in the states) there is tons of empty bottles, sprays, pill boxes and pallets. They are rather cheap (from 1.5$ to 4) and very handy! I am addicted to muji now. Nov 16 06 10:56 am Link Kit Revamping and pics (posted on another thread but thought I would keep it here too for those interested Stanley Tool Bag with Wheels bought at Target for $34 This is ALL I bring with me on every shoot now. If I know I am going to something specific I can switch it up a bit and once I get using my airbrush I will probably need to leave some things out or carry another bag but for now I LOVE THIS. It seems so small but it fits all the things on outside in pics below (by the way it had a horrible STANLEY plastic emblem on front that I just ripped off. bag filled and closed  bag filled and opened  bag (mostly) empty  empty with contents next to bag  In front pockets - cleaner, toner, moisturizer, evian spray, brush cleaner and fix + spray on side pockets - cloth napkins for brush cleaning, sponges and mascara wands Dec 05 06 03:38 pm Link Thanks Lottie! I cant get tired of seeing you guys kits. Mine is growing so fast it is frightening! Keep me away from MUFE's store!!!

I've been building up over the last few years, for work with touring bands and live entertainment (drag shows, burlesque revues and go-go dancers) I really loved the different flash colors on MUFE, I'm going to splurge here really soon.
