How to keep Your Acrylic Makeup Organizer Drawers Clean

Keeping your makeup organizers and beauty drawers clean is key to maintaining an organized storage system for your makeup. Below is a quick video to demonstrate how to easily clean your makeup organizer drawers.

Step 1: Take products out

Empty your makeup organizer drawers by putting aside all your beauty and makeup products. Don't worry, we will come back to these later for the final makeup organizing. 

Step 2: Wipe down each drawer and the entire makeup storage box

Using a microfibre cloth or soft cloth to wipe away dust and loose dirt. For stubborn stains add a mild solution of soap & water to your cloth and remove the stains.

Please whilst cleaning your makeup organizer drawers DO NOT use a chemical cleaning agent or scouring materials otherwise this can cause discolouration , water spotting and scratches.

Step 3: Sanitize your beauty and makeup products

Now that you’ve cleaned out your makeup storage drawer, it’s time to focus on the actual items that are stored in them. Again, sanitizing wipes or antibacterial spray make good cleaning options. Focus especially on areas you hold or touch the most as those places can collect a lot of bacteria. Makeup products can accumulate germs pretty quickly. Residue from liquid foundation has the tendency to dry up around the pump area and leave behind dried stains.

Creams can congeal near the opening and eyebrow pencil shavings drop into little crevices of your makeup organizer drawer, settle onto surfaces and smudge easily.

Sanitizing your beauty products gets rid of stains, kills germs, reduces the spreading of viruses and makes your collection look more immaculate.

Step 4: Sort your makeup

Over time, makeup tends to get jumbled up and misplaced within your beauty storage space so this is the perfect time to put things back where they go. Cleaning your beauty drawer gives you the chance to reorganize your makeup, declutter and throw away expired products.

Sort your makeup neatly into categories or group them according to product type then arrange them back neatly into your beauty drawer.
