How to Organize Your Makeup Bag (Middle School)

Last Updated: February 3, 2023

Middle school can be a nightmare or it can be a great memory. To make it awesome you'll have to put effort into it, and one way is to look beautiful by having a fresh look all day long. Keeping an organized makeup bag can help!

Steps

1
Select a cute bag. A sparkly or fluffy bag can look stunning. You can add designs by putting rhinestones or stick-on gems. You can also add key chains to spice it up.
2
Gather your must-have makeup items. If you already have a makeup bag, sort out which are old and which are usable. The makeup bag necessities are lip gloss, lip balm, mascara, deodorant, and maybe perfume or feminine products if you use them.

3
Put products into smaller containers if you need to. Buy small storage containers and put products like lotions into those to save space. Then you can decorate it.
4
Use pouches or small bags to keep your bag and cosmetics clean. Make sure your brushes are stored in a separate pouch or are bagged before you put them into your makeup bag. You don't want foundation and blush marks all over your bag.
5
Add some optional but useful extras. Put in a comb, a brush, a small mirror, and hand cream. They are optional but can make a difference to your look. Decorate old ones with Sharpies and stickers if they're not good enough.
6
Keep your bag organized. Sort out your supplies once in a while. So the tube of lip gloss is used up? Or do you need more Band-Aids for emergencies? Stock your supplies, but make sure they don't overflow.
- Toss any used-up makeup items. They look awful and use up your space.

You don't really need to bring makeup bag or case. It's your option to apply makeup.
