Get Organized and Save Time by Making a Holder For Your Makeup Brushes

Organizing your makeup brushes is an incredibly important step to keeping a clean work environment for when it's time to put on your makeup. You don't want to have to waste time searching for a brush under a pile of makeup mess.
Even if you have a container specifically for your brushes, it may still be difficult to find the one you need. The key here is that you need to get a holder that allows you to easily view your brushes and juxtapose them in a way that allows you to easily find the one you need.
One way you can do that, that is quite popular among do-it-yourself video bloggers is to get a vase, glass jar, or a similar container and fill it up with either vase filler, small pebbles, or a similar material.
This allows you to stick your brushes inside and for them to stay in whatever position you place them in, regardless of their size. Since the materials is an accumulation of a bunch of small pieces, they shift easily making them form fitting.
Since your brushes will no longer be rubbing against each other, and you are placing them in brush side up, you prolong their life. Lets face it, if you just toss your brushes into a random area carelessly they probably aren't going to last as long as they should.
You can get this filler at a local craft store for super cheap.
If you're not a crafty type, you're not out of luck. There are tons of well made brush holders available, and it really comes down to preference.
After you've made your own makeup brush holder you might want to craft a makeup brush roll so you can keep your brushes protected and stay organized while you're on the go.
