Like your make-up, fingernail polish, brush, hair ornaments (ponytail holders, headbands, etc)?
I have way too much make-up, hair ties, fashion barrettes, make-up brushes, etc. and I can't figure out how to group and store anything! Instead they're all jumbled in a collapsable grocery bag left over from out hasty move - Four. Months. Ago. I need to figure out the most effective way to get organized.
How do you organize these items? Bonus points for pictures! I need inspiration!

I have a plastic shoe organizer that hangs in my closet. Each thing fits into a different compartment.

Ha, mine are like yours. Most of my elastics are on the shifter in my car, cause that's when I usually use them. My hairbrush, right now, it on the couch, and I don't even own nail polish and all of that.
BUT, I have a nice little cabinet in my bathroom, if I do decide to put these things in one place, lol

I have a dressing room, and in there an antique secretary with a fold down top and 4 drawers. We're still in boxes from our move, but all my jewlery will go in here, plus my make up and nail stuff.

Makeup in a traincase from Sephora. Hair products in a wall cabinet in our bathroom. Nail polish in a plastic tub on a shelf. My hair stuff like clips and headbands generally live on whatever surface they got tossed. lol. Mostly in a black bag I keep next to my jewelry.

Hair ties/brushes/combs go into a drawer in the bathroom. I only use one hair tie at a time so the remaining ones stay looped around the cardboard that you purchase it in.
Nail polish, deodorant, contact solution, etc go into the medicine cabinet hanging on the wall in the bathroom.
Excess toiletries like razors, body wash, etc under the sink.

I have two small plastic organizing drawers that hold my non-daily stuff in my closet. Under my sink I store my blow dryer, hair tools and next to that are about 6 or 7 drawers that are filled with all of my make-up, tweezers, brushes, etc.

I have two drawers in my bathroom. One is for tooth brush and make up and the other is for hair stuff (ties, clips, hair spray, dryer, etc).
Then under my cabinet I have little bins I got from the $1 store to organize extra lotion, nail polish and stuff, etc.

I think my problem is that the bathroom is really really outdated. The closet is awful inside it, the sink/vanity area is tiny, it's just not working all the way around. That's why I was looking for some creative storage solutions! There's no where to put my stuff! Ugh. Thanks for the tips, ladies

I bought a bunch of little plastic baskets for $1 each. Our vanity is small, but I think six of them fit in there. I have one basket for nail stuff, one for lotions, etc. We only have 3 tiny drawers so DH got one, I got one, & first aid stuff went in the third. I bought teeny baskets to keep stuff from rolling everywhere in the drawers.

This is something I need to work on. When we moved (um.. over 2 years ago) I lost some bathroom storage and I never really organized. Can't find anything and I'm sure I'm buying duplicates!

We have a bathroom closet that I use for towels & items I stock pile when I get them on sale- toothpaste, shampoo, deodorant etc. then I have a cabinet that I put bins with nail stuff and 'beauty' items not used daily, on top of it I have a tray for lotion, face wash, our deodorants, mouth wash & dry shampoo. Then next to our pedestal sink (who puts a pedestal sink a place with no storage and one bathroom?!?) we have a tower similar to the one below. The bottom shelf has my hair dryer, then the others have daily makeup, hair stuff and the top has a dish with tweezers, nail clippers and random little items. I can hook headbands over the edge and my flat iron also gets hooked over the edge to cool and often doesn't put back on the shelf 'cause I'm lazy!

These are my bathroom cabinets. All the main categories are labeled. Makeup is in the vanity. Oversize stuff is under the sink.
Plus we have a medicine cabinet. My hair things are in a jewelry box since I don't really use jewelry.

I use these. Under the sink was a freaking MESS, then I organized. Now it's contained.lol

i used to think i was clean and organized until i became a hoarder (embarrassing) and now i feel like things are always so messy!
but here's how it's organized so far:
- makeup and skincare is on my vanity table in the master bedroom
- jewelry & hair accessories are on the dresser top (in jewelry / accessories boxes) in the master bedroom
- nail polish, extra toiletries, cotton balls, tissues, etc are stored in a hall closet right outside the master bedroom
- cleaning products, tp, etc. are in the cabinet below the sink in the master bedroom
- hair care products and gadgets used on a daily basis + husband's toiletries (all 3 of them) are stored in a skinny rack right by the bathroom sink in the master bedroom

I have 8 small drawers in my sink vanity. Each drawer has a theme: nails, first aid and tampons, hair brushes/ combs and elastics, hair serums/ creams, oral care, razors and shaving creams, make up etc.
Here's the first aid drawer.
