Where or how do you store your nail polish?
I still use Ikea Helmers for the most part, lol! They are small, metal cabinets with squat drawers.

In a very pretty cigar box tucked into my bookcase. I always find Iāll do my nails while reading. So it makes sense to me. If itās in the powder room itās just one more glass bottle for me to accidentally break while trying to get out the door in my am makeup routine.
I have acrylic polish racks from Amazon on my bathroom wall. Have you tried Holo Taco? Best polish ever!
I use cute flower pots!
I’ve just got a plastic bin hiding under my closet racks. It’s overflowing… I have over 100 polishes now!!! It’s an addiction! And I’m still wanting to pick up more ILNP, F.U.N., Holo Taco, and Essie’s new collections!!! Just so many fun colors to enjoy!
In a purple low, but long and wide storage bin. Sadly, when the lockdown came, and it came the very weekend that I moved from the Eastside to the westside of town, I just kinda lost my desire to do my nails. Makes zero sense, as I have always been known to keep my mani/pedi routine up before that.
I stored in the fridge it lasts longer and does not thicken as fast.
Same!
I have an acrylic nail polish organizer tray in one of the drawers of my makeup organizer. I used to just have them loose in that drawer but they would slide around and fall over.
Like all of my makeup, I store them in a bag in my ensuite cupboard.
I have more than 100 bottles, and I use a couple of clear, plastic, double sided nail polish holder suitcase style containers I got on Amazon. I can see all the colours, store with the remover, cuticle sticks etc, they don’t get jumbled. I keep them under the bed.
Love nail polish and all things mani pedi! I actually set up a little “nail salon” in an extra room for my daughter & I. She loves nails so much I bought almost a salon amount from Kiara sky so we do our own SNS and she learned to do acrylic nails on herself & friends. I bought the acrylic shelves from amazon to line them up on the wall and an acrylic 3 tier rolling cart to store products.. love ILNP and we buyer crystals & charms. I spend a lot of money on nail supplies, however we do our nails how we want when we want and that’s the fun part!
Iām not a big polish wearer. Just the same three bottles of Esse neutrals. Honestly, they go bad quickly so I end up repurchasing the same colors in the drawer about once a year or sooner.
I have one ikea helmer where I keep the majority, but I kind of hate it. I used to have them in the bottom draw of my ikea alex drawer I used to store my makeup. But, I wanted more space since I mostly do nail art, and all the tools take up a ton of space. Once we are back in a house I’m going to find a different solution cause I really hate that helmer.
I have two acrylic nail polish holders sitting on a chest of drawers in my bedroom. I also have nail polish in cardboard boxes beside the acrylic holders. I have a lot of nail polish. Perhaps over 100 little bottles. Maybe I should count them.
I do my makeup in the bedroom, it has a north facing window, so it’s light but no bright glaring sun. I never do my nails there, I always do them when watching TV.
I am going to move the polish to some better place as I really don’t like having the bottles in the bedroom.
I use Helmers, though I went from having 2 of them full of polish down to less than one drawer. Now the other drawers house office supplies since I became a permanent remote worker. =)
