I live in a 3 bedroom villa in Dubai and even though space is no barrier, it’s more about choosing the right place to house my makeup. It’s gone from just a vanity in a spare room to now a full blown decorating project with the vision of a room turned into makeup studio. The function needs to be everyday makeup on myself, storage, Tutorials and most importantly – book clients! So stay tuned for more updates in this decorating process.

I wanted to share these bargain fun pineapple “pen holders” that I will be using for my brushes. They are from Typo and in the beautiful Tiffany blue colour palette it will add my fun touch to the room. The best part – only 12AED.

Typo is a the Australian gift/stationery store recently opened in the amazing Box Park in Dubai. If you spend enough time in there, they have so many quirky things for your home/office and in this case, the makeup studio.

I want my space to be quite clean and bright but at the same time the quirky accessories that have a function.

There are lots of fun yet practical things you can use for makeup organisation. Fun bowls for ear buds and cotton wool, large silver trays for grouped together products –  eyes, face etc.  I use this little bowl that you can pickup in souvenir places for my ear buds.

Really, anything goes! As long as it works for you and is practical for your kit of stuff.

I will share the finished product of the room in a couple of weeks.
