The mirror

Hello love bugs!

A few weeks ago I went to our local value village in search of some vintage clothes.

I had a really cool wardrobe idea, where I was going to buy clothes either made it a certain era or inspired by a certain era. My plan is to start from the 1930s and then work my way up all the way to the 1980s.

While I was searching for clothes I found this light up magnifying mirror. I’ve always wanted a light up magnifying mirror, and this was only $3.99! So I got it. But I knew for it to be sold at such a low price there had to be some problem with it.

Was it the USB plug in? Was it broken there?

Nope when I got home and plugged it in, all was fine

Was it the actual lights?

Nope the lights worked perfectly, although I was a bit scared at first, when I stepped away from the light it would turn off, so I thought that that was the problem, it didn’t stay on for very long. Later I figured out that it’s motion sensor and you have to be close enough to see your face magnified for it to stay on. Once you’re close enough to do your makeup and whatnot it will stay on!

So I found this to be a mega steal, and it’s my new favorite mirror!

What do you this of my wardrobe idea?

Magnifying mirrors or normal mirrors?

How to Organize your Makeup Collection for Cheap

Hello everyone! Welcome back to our blog! So today I wanted to show you my makeup storage plus how to organize without spending much money at all. Hopefully you guys get something out of this, acrylic drawers are so expensive.

Lets jump in, here are five ways you can organize your collection for cheap.

Repurpose things you already have – 

Boxes, cups, anything can work. Stationary boxes are perfect since they are shallow. I love this trick especially for right now, because you probably  bought holiday cards to give to friends last month, so there is plenty of boxes around for you to use.

This is the box that holds all my lip glosses~

Use desk organizers instead of makeup organizers, they do the same job and desk organizers are cheaper –
