In spite of its Kardashian connection, I have been coveting a Clear Cube for years:

http://www.theclearcube.com/

Instead, I bought an over-the-door beauty armoire (it can also be wall mounted) from HSN.

It's a wonderful idea, but the design is flawed due to the heavy, double-sided mirror on the front. It broke (the manufacturer sent me a replacement) and my BF is going to remove the mirror and replace it with white laminate, at which point it should be good to go. That's a lot of work for something that's expensive and should work right out of the box, though. If I had it to do again, I'd just buy the Clear Cube and be done with it. (And I may yet end up with it. )

I use Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap in the baby scent. It washes away all the makeup with little effort and doesn't dry my brushes out.

Maybe I don't have as much makeup as anyone else but I just keep my day to day stuff in a small makeup bag sitting in front of the mirror and I keep another makeup bag with the random extras/impulse buys that I never really use. It is a lot less trouble than having to put stuff into the makeup bag every time I want to leave the house.

Never thought about using a jewelry box for beauty products but what a great idea. Thanks!
