Top 7 Tips to Organize Your Make-Up or Cosmetic Bag

Getting Your Cosmetic Bag Together

When was the last time you really organized your cosmetic bag?

Did you ever think this was something important to do?

While you may not be aware of it, the fact is that it is important to update and clear out your make-up bag every six to twelve months! Here’s why.

Constantly Changing Cosmetic Styles

New styles are available every season. Clearing out your cosmetic bag opens up space for the new colours and trends that are available with every new season. It is similar to clothing fashion. It is important to refresh your wardrobe with new items from the season.

Bacteria

Bacteria can start growing in things like mascara in as little as three months. This can cause serious eye irritation. When food is old, or is moldy we throw it out. Just as important is your cosmetics. When in doubt, throw it out!

Top 7 Together Tips

1. The Use It, Need It, Love It Principle

Ask yourself “Do I use it?”; “Do I really need it?” and “Do I LOVE it?” If you answered no to any of these questions, then…you KNOW what to do.

2. Keep Your Look Current

You will feel more confident, beautiful and youthful. Make sure that you don’t forget about reviewing and updating your skincare routine too!

3. Are You Being Ruthless?

When going through your cosmetics are you effortlessly tossing away the old products or are you prone to keeping some of them around…thinking that you might use them “one day” or that they might come back in style? We use 20% of our items 80% of the time.

4. Consult Your Beauty Specialist

After clearing out your cosmetic bag, make a list of what you need or would like. Then set up a time to meet with your personal Beauty Consultant for a preview of what’s new. Your Beauty Consultant is an expert who will help answer any questions you may have and is someone that can offer advice as to how the new products will look and feel.

5. Gifts With Purchase

Major sources of clutter that can be found in a lot of cosmetic bags are those “purchasing mistakes” or those lovely “gifts with purchase” that you never use. The best way to get rid of these unused items is to donate them to your nearest women’s shelter.

6. More About Unused Cosmetics

So you bought something on impulse, then you get it home and realize it wasn’t quite right. If it hasn’t been used, return it right away. Or, another option is to donate it to a women’s shelters in your area. This helps you get organized while helping another woman less fortunate than you…there is no waste in that!

7. Not Your Favourites?

If it is not being used, it is considered clutter. We know you like to stick to your favourite make-up and skincare products. Great! If you have not used a product within a year – then TOSS IT OUT! Are you being ruthless?!

When clearing out and organizing your cosmetic bag, say to yourself “I will be ruthless”. Having your cosmetic bag organized will save you so much time when getting ready in the morning or for the evening or just when you need a little ‘touch-up’. This, in turn, will save you money and unnecessary stress!

Handbags – Authentic Or Counterfeit? Designer Purses Worthy Guarantee

Fake Designer Bags. The counterfeit shopping experience is intriguing. You can almost feel the illicit connection made with the handbag underground. All you want is a new purse, a designer copycat, something that looks like the real thing without the hefty price tag. The irony in all of this is the reality of the experience. They are NOT inexpensive.

In reality, you pay a lot of money for junk. Maybe the leather is good, and maybe it is not. How would you know? Have you seen the real thing to compare? If you did, you certainly wouldn’t be investing in a fake after handling the real thing! Solid metal hardware, rich sumptuous leather and finely crafted details trump the plastic & vinyl attachments, poorly stitched linings and knock-off logo’s cheaply glued to counterfeit designer purses and handbags.

We know the best designer handbags and leather goods are made in Italy and France. No need to drop names here, we all know the top sellers. Fakes might be made in Italy or France, and they may not. You never know. Most of the people you are dealing with are hustling you to make a big profit on something of little worth and definitely of no real value.

The evolution of designer handbags has made its mark world wide. Every woman with fashion sense wants to carry a new, hot, high-end designer handbag, and the price is not cheap. On an average, the retail boutique price for a new designer purse starts at about $1000. That’s a hefty price to pay to feel good when you leave the house. I know some women who carry bags costing more than their cars! The Hermes handbag collection of some of my clients’ totals more than the initial cost of my first home!

The Internet has opened a flood gate of ecommerce sites for handbags. There are more than enough websites selling purses these days. And, the best stores sell authentic designer merchandise, not fakes. The difficulty comes in trying to determine the real from the fake and make the distinction clear.

Here are a few tips for identifying a website selling fake counterfeit designer handbags and purses:

1. A new store comes online just in time for holiday shopping.

2. The new website’s contact information is missing or obscure.

3. The new website’s registration information (Whois.com) is “private.”

4. You can’t locate the owners.

5. The same style or design of a bag is available in many colors.

6. The website sells only three or four designer brands.

7. The handbags look like items you’ve seen on many other websites,

8. Prices are too good to be true less than half of retail.

9. There are page after page of similar items.

10. There’s one page of authentic-looking bags, but the rest of the website contains the same bag in every color under the sun!

I’ve seen websites come and go over the past ten years online. First, the sites selling fakes offered Gucci, Fendi and Prada. Then, there were the ones selling strictly Louis Vuitton and Chanel. The Hermes Birkin and Kelly bag are still prolific in the counterfeit world, but they are not as commonly seen online as the other Designers. Find more information about Handbags Purses Totes here.
