Storing all your products? Help me!

I need something to store all my make up, creams, hair products, hair tools, etc that are currently cluttering up my bedroom. I thought about a storage tower of plastic drawers on wheels so it can be put away in the cupboard and wheeled out when needed but they look pretty ugly.
Where do you keep yours? Any suggestions?

How about Ikea Raskog trolley? It's available in white, cream and black.

Something like that would be ideal but I'd need to have a bit more storage in it. Argos ones aren't very attractive!

You could also look at Alex storage unit and use dividers inside the drawers to create sections.

I have this one from ikea
.. I liked it that much I now have 2!

I bought the drawer divider trays that go inside as its great for seperating all my things.

@vaz119 that looks perfect for storing extra bits, which dividers did you get that fit inside? I am thinking of getting this unit to put inside my wardrobe to organise makeup and toiletries.

sammy I don't still see it on the website. It was a few years ago now but if I remember correctly, it was meant for cutlery? Only a few pounds each.

I bought two of these instore recently (BOGOF deal) at WH Smiths - £24 for both.
They are just perfect for my makeup which was so untidy in open baskets. Now everything has its own drawer - a drawer for blushers, a drawer for primers etc and doesn't get dusty. I just have one on top of the other.
They do different designs if this one isn't your cup of tea.
I'm v glad I bought them.
They'd not be the thing for big bottles of hairspray and the like but for make-up they are just right.

I use a set of 3 hat boxes I bought years ago, they look very pretty stacked on their shelf and keep the clutter hidden!

I have this, from ikea. It's intended as bathroom storage but it fits in pretty well near my wardrobe.

Mulberry that cabinet is like a tardis isn't it? We have it in the bathroom

I second the Alex unit as great storage though I use mine (tall one) for underwear, socks and tights (a la Kondo (??) folding methods)

TKMaxx do some lovely patterned cardboard boxes in different sizes that would stack and often have the clear make up trays that would help divide inside
