I use a wicker suitcase (that's what it looks like). Its 12 x 8 x 4. I have smaller plastic trays inside to separate by type blush, eye, face etc. Bought a square lipstick holder. A caboodles train case works well also. That way its all in one place, you can carry it to the bathroom, the kitchen etc.

Well, depending on the amount of make-up everyone has, and the storage space available, there are multiple options. One of my favorites, however; is the good old, common tackle box. They come in a good variety of neutral shades, and are easily stored. Best of all, they come in just about every size you could need. The interior fold out racks are fantastic for sorting say, brushes from eyeliners, from lipglosses. They also come in a wide price range, but even the largest ones at 'big box' discount stores are rarely more than $30 or so, usually much less.

Now that warmer weather is arriving, and fishing is getting going, many stores put them on sale, so it's a great time to purchase one (also look for ones in sale around Father's Day). It's also fun that they can be customized with permanent markers, so each member of your household can decorate their own to their liking, avoiding confusion, and better yet-no sisterly squabbles over the rightful owner of that lip liner!
