How To Get The Most From Yours
Personal Planner Organizers
My favorite personal organizer is actually a combination planner. It contains both notes and makeup. It’s actually easy to turn a notebook into a makeup kit now that the cosmetic companies are offering more makeup palettes each season. So how do you transform yours? There are two basic ways:
1. You can purchase them from cosmetic companies. In fact, Trish McEvoy offers the ones that have a page with holes in it and the page is actually magnetic. Then you buy the makeup palette separately. It’s a very flat palette and you simply place it on the sheet.
2. The second way to do it is to turn any makeup palette into an organizer. It’s basically the same concept, but with a DIY makeup organizer you’ll be able to use the products you prefer. Just make sure that you’re using a flat type of product.

DIY Make Up Organizers
Turning your personal organizer into a makeup organizer doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are a few simple ways to alter yours which will enable you to carry your makeup with you wherever you go. Not only that, you’ll be able to find it easily.
- You can use clear heavy plastic compartments like those you keep pencils or pens in. They’re usually strong enough to hold your small flat makeup palettes.
- You could also just get a separate heavy cardboard page, put holes in it for the binder and simply hot glue the back of your palette to it. This way you can even keep the lid on it. Since many of these mini makeup kits have a mirror in the lid when it pops open, you’ll have it there when you need it.
- Don’t leave home without your white makeup wedges and brushes. Even sponge tip applicators can be put into a separate clear sheet and then zipped closed.
- One essential item is a thin pack of makeup wipes. They’re perfect for removing makeup on the go.
- If you like to change your makeup look for evening, but don’t care to include a makeup palette then think about adding a few of the Coloron EyeEnvy sheets.
- Keep any lipstick samples – the ones that come in the little sealed dots – in your pages. You can find them online and it’s cheap makeup at it’s best.
Your personal organizer and your makeup go hand-in-hand. Stash a few coupons in it along with a reminder note on what you want to add to your makeup kit and you’ll be able to look your best anytime.
