I picked up these modular acrylic makeup organizer shelves at the container store. I wish I had done a better job measuring because it doesn't quite fit perfectly on my bathroom counter and that sort of bothers me.

Anyway, it fits everything perfectly and if I run out of room I can just buy more shelves, so it does what it needs to and is way better than a drawer or a shelf.

The Le Creuset honey pot to the right of it holds my brush cleaner solution.

I wasn't sure how I felt about acrylic organizers because I figured they would get covered in smudges too easily, and to be fair it has, but it's still really pretty.

At some point I'll figure out a better place for it than the bathroom counter, but there are so many mirrors in the bathroom that it seems like the best spot for now.
 
I use an ikea shelf with Acrylic makeup organizers from Marshalls. I believe the company is called BINO.

I also purchased wooden desk organizers to hold my larger palettes and makeup sprays. And as a cheap alternative to putting in a light bar in the shelves, I used clip on LED book lights to illuminate my shelves. 2 lights from Costco were $7! =]

Here's my baby, in progress....

I like the acrylic organizers as well. I have almost all my makeup in them. I just recently moved my eyeshadow palettes and singles into my bathroom vanity drawer. Wish I had room for a vanity where I could sit down and get all pretty!
 
I've been so inspired by this thread! Here's my little 'glamour nook':

-I don't have or use a lot of makeup so nothing but a small acrylic organizer to store my lipsticks.
- I ordered the led lamp from Amazon.
- I just received my Starlet Vanity Girl mirror....love it!
- I reupholstered the Pier 1 Hayworth bench with lace to give it a more old school Hollywood look.
- I use a pull-out rack (originally intended for a laundry room) to store my toiletries and hair brushes.
- The layout gives me space to keep my curling iron and hot comb on the ledge beside me.
- On the opposite side there is another 'nook' that I have customized into what my husband refers to as the 'waiting room'. ( Which is ridiculous because I can see him checking himself out in the mirror while he sits there!)

Thank you all for inviting me into your lovely spaces and giving me lots of ideas on getting my dream space set up!

Your bathroom and vanity is really nice.
