One of my fondest memories growing up is collecting Caboodles to store my “makeup” in. Okay, so maybe it wasn’t always makeup, but more like hair scrunchies, slap bracelets, and whatever my mom would give me from her makeup collection, but the storage was the coolest part. Everyone I knew owned one, and they came in different colors and sizes. Every year I would ask for another one, and every year I would happily wake up on Christmas morning, shredding the wrapping paper open to find a shiny new Caboodles container! Now known as the “Classic,” they still sell Caboodles, and have expanded their brand beautifully. Caboodles is twenty-five years old, and celebrating strong with a gorgeous collection of modern, updated makeup storage and organization. In the above video, I wanted to show you in detail the two products I love, as well as how I use them, and a little bit of my makeup storage. To see photographs of two products from their collection, as well,
Caboodles Beauty Buffet Tray: This is the mother-load of all makeup organization. There isn’t a single woman (or man) out there that couldn’t put one of these to great use. You can use it to literally store absolutely anything, but it’s especially great for beauty supplies and toiletries. It’s great to put in your bathroom to organize your hair or skin products, it’s great to put where you do your makeup so you can easily grab and apply your favorite cosmetics, and even better is that it is affordable. I’ve been looking for an acrylic storage unit like this for awhile, and they are always very expensive (The Container Store), which turns me off. Also, this unit has far more room and slots for makeup products than most of the ones I’ve seen. It’s sturdy, affordable, and it organizes your items in clear, plain view. I chose the “Beauty Buffet Tray” because it had an extensive variety of slots for different makeup items from nail polish to lipstick to eyeshadow, and everything in between. Caboodles has a fabulous array of acrylic trays that fit your needs based on how much room you have, where you want to store it, and what you’re placing inside the tray. Major kudos to Caboodles for filling in the greatly-needed gap for acrylic makeup storage units!
Caboodles “It” Bag in Femme Fatale: If I had to close my eyes and dream up my “ideal” travel cosmetic bag, this would be it. I prefer to travel as simple as possible, so I want a bag that can hold everything I need to bring, but not take up the entire trunk of the car. As a beauty addict, I have a hard time choosing what to bring when I travel, and sometimes want to bring far too much. This bag has the perfect amount of space for everything that I need to bring, and it perfectly breaks up each and every section of the bag. There is a section for your makeup brushes that has a slinky holder for each brush, which is huge for me because my makeup brushes are always laying at the bottom of my makeup bags. It has gorgeous netting and zippers to keep certain items in place and protect them from breaking or spilling out onto other products. It also comes with a mirror, which is great for quick touch-ups or in case of emergency. Though this bag has many compartments, it is also the ideal size: not too big, not too small. I can easily fit my hair straightener into the largest compartment of this bag, which means this is my be-all-end-all toiletry and makeup bag for traveling now. I’m sure my husband will thank me (or Caboodles).
