Cosmetics Sticks & Brush Holder

Challenge

Daily beauty routines can create clutter when cosmetics and brushes lack a clear, accessible storage system. The brief was to reduce this mess while giving discarded glass bottles a new purpose within a bathroom or vanity setting.

Solution

I transformed discarded glass bottles into a compact cosmetics and brush holder, creating separate spaces for different beauty items while retaining the character of the original materials.

Design process

• Explored everyday beauty routines and common storage challenges.
• Investigated how discarded glass bottles could be repurposed into a functional organiser.
• Developed concept sketches focused on organisation, balance, and accessibility.
• Refined the form and proportions through digital studies.
• Considered material character, durability, and visual appeal for home use..

Outcome

The final concept gives discarded bottles a practical second life while creating a cleaner and more organised beauty setup. The result combines everyday functionality with a more decorative presence for the home.
