Organize Cosmetics While Traveling with BEAUTY & THE BOX

Cash for your car

Keeping makeup organized at home can be a chore. Keeping makeup organized on the road is next to impossible! Enter BEAUTY & THE BOX. This new beauty brand has the solution for organizing and storing our cosmetics.

This new company’s first inspired creation to launch is The Traveler Deluxe— a dream come true for any traveling makeup maven. The Traveler is comprised of a unique, innovative design, with 3 pop-up cosmetic boxes that fold flat for convenience and pop-up intuitively at your destination.

Each box is cleverly stair-stepped to hold mascaras, pencils, brushes, lipsticks so they stand up and are separated from your powders and foundations. The boxes are fitted securely into the sturdy, go-anywhere tray base. The Traveler gets you organized and ready to apply your makeup in an instant.

See for yourself!

Barbara Brock, Founder & CEO of Beauty & The Box: “I love how quickly I can be organized when using The Traveler,” says  “Think of The Traveler as your personal beauty counter when you are on the go or just at home.”

What inspired Barbara to create The Traveler was from her personal traveling experiences. “When I was traveling, I could never find a way to be organized and time efficient with cosmetics when I arrived at my destination. There are lots of pouches for makeup but nowhere to organize except sometimes the bathroom glass. That is when I had my AHA moment.”

For Use at Home Too
Not only is The Traveler’s 3 POP-UP cosmetic boxes a great solution while traveling, this creative product also has endless options for organizing at home too.

“There are many options for using The Traveler besides cosmetics, Barbara suggests. “Some women don’t use a lot of cosmetics so think toiletries, toothbrush and toothpaste and The Traveler is just perfect for men’s grooming necessities too.”

Tips for Organizing Vanity/Bathroom Counter, by Barbara Brock

Separate products by categories:
Skincare products, cosmetics and perfumes. “I organize by individual cosmetic items. Each category including brushes, shadows, blushes, foundation and moisturizer have their own container,” Barbara recommends. “Grouping eye shadows by color makes for less confusion and you can see what you have and don’t have.”

No mixing of his and hers:
Just as two people should have separate closets or designated spaces.

Clean it Up:
“Keeping a clean counter speaks to the soul and is calming,” Barbara believes. “While cleaning, wipe the bottles and jars.”

Use Organizing Containers:
Put all cosmetics into some type of organizer, container or tray. Fit the container to the item. Barbara suggests using anything tall like tall silver cups, bud vases, or even pencil cups.

Avoid Items that Don’t Belong:
“Dirt, scattered items, coffee cups (or other drinking glasses) all make this beauty and personal care area look cluttered,” Barbara says. “Be sure to remove these items daily.”

Freshen Up Look of Vanity: 
Three ideas. Barbara’s number one rule is to clean the counter.  Have a photograph of a loved one who makes you smile. Bring in fragrant flowers.

Best Way to Declutter:
Edit your existing makeup. Separate cosmetics in like kind. Remove “older products”, “very little left” products and “too many of the same kind of products”. Set out all of your container items. Replace the edited cosmetic items into containers. “Doing this twice a year will improve your mood,” Barbara believes.

ABOUT BEAUTY & THE BOX

As a company, BEAUTY & THE BOX is dedicated to fusing beauty with organization for the travelling woman and at home. Created by Founder & CEO Barbara Brock, there’s no doubt Barbara has the “organization” gene in her DNA. As a successful entrepreneur and home-staging owner, she explains: “As a business woman, time is money and being organized is key. I could never find a truly functional cosmetics organizer that enabled me to be time efficient when I got to my destination. There is an abundance of cosmetic pouches, but only a bathroom glass for my cosmetics.” In setting out to design the perfect cosmetics organizing system, her philosophy was simple: “Be organized. Be beautiful”. So, it is mission accomplished! Visit: https://beautyandthebox.com/
