Packing Solution: Eagle Creek Cubes

3/19/2014

I am a very organized person, so I was excited when I learned about Eagle Creek packing cubes.  I originally heard about them on YouTube from Ingrid, whose channel is called missglamorazzi.  Here is a link to her packing video in case you want to see the packing cubes in action.

Like I mentioned in my last post, I'll be going on an 11-day trip in about a month, so I am in full-on planning mode.  I already have a list put together of what I'm bringing along with a newer, bigger suitcase ready to be packed.  Once I saw Ingrid's video, I knew that packing cubes were going to be super helpful.  I went online to Amazon and got a few of them.  Here's what I ordered:
  • Eagle Creek Travel Gear Pack-It Cube, Black (2)
  • Eagle Creek Travel Gear Pack-It Tube Cube, Black
  • Eagle Creek Travel Gear Pack-It Garment Folder Small, Black

The garment folder is probably the coolest piece I ordered.  Instead of describing how it works, here's a video where you can watch it in action.  The size that I ordered holds up to seven items at a time.  The reason I chose the smallest one is because it's almost the same size as the pack-it cube, so they'll stack nicely in my suitcase on top of one another.

I plan on doing a full post of my packing process, so I'll share pictures with you of the packing cube, tube, and garment folder in action!

My new obsession with makeup has resulted in a huge increase in my makeup collection and I realized that I needed to get organized.  I watched a lot of YouTube videos about the best ways to organize makeup and it seems that almost everyone has acrylic drawers by Muji.  I ordered mine and they just got delivered today.  Above is a before picture of my makeup collection (minus all of my lip products that live in my purse).  Below is what this huge mess looked like once it was organized into the Muji drawers.

And here's a look at my finished makeup organization:

For good measure, here's a look at my makeup bag I use every day while getting ready.  I found it at the Coach outlet in a weekender travel set.

And lastly, here are all my lip products that I keep in my purse in the Sephora makeup bag I recently got that had a gift set of samples.  I've also got a couple of rollerball perfumes in the bag in case I want to put on a scent during the day.

I'm curious, what is your favorite way to organize your makeup collection?  Please share in the comments!
