It’s easy to just toss stuff in your bathroom vanity drawers to clear your counters. Out of sight … out of mind. But when you purchase a new shampoo or lotion because you couldn’t find it in your jumbled drawers, you have wasted product that expired in the time it was lost. More painfully, you’ve wasted money. Here is how to efficiently organize your bathroom drawers so that everything is super easily accessible even in the deepest of drawers. And, did you know, you can also organize your spaces according to your organizing style? You can find out what your organizing style is here.
Before organizing your bathroom drawers, you must purge the toiletries and tools that you do not like and no longer use. Be ruthless and purge the excess so you can more easily store what you do need and use.

I also include my declutter and organizing challenge calendars and guides to help direct you through each area of your home. These guides ensure you get through every nook and cranny and finally get to the other side of clutter … an organized and functional space!

Vanity Drawer Organization
Shallow Drawer Organization
If your bathroom vanity has shallow drawers, you can set in pads like these to stash hair styling tools away even while they are still hot (found here):
To organize the rest of your toiletries, oral care supplies, hair care, and hair care accessories, drawer organizers are your best friend (found here):
There are also expandable organizing solutions like these (found here):
I don’t recommend storing makeup in a bathroom that gets rather steamy as the moisture and fluctuating temperatures can ruin your makeup. However, for those with larger bathrooms and larger bathroom vanities, the drawer organizers above are great for containing all kinds and sizes of makeup from single eye shadows to larger makeup palettes and tubes of lip glosses and makeup brushes, etc.
Deep Drawer Organization
For extra deep vanity drawers, you can set inside of them deep bins like these of varying widths and lengths according to your needs (found here):
Or you can use more shallow bins and set expandable organizers like these on the top edges of the drawers or directly on top of the bins underneath (found here):
Drawer organizers that nest inside of each other like these are genius for organizing all the small and large toiletries that can easily be jumbled and lost in a drawer (found here):
