Do you display any beauty products or packaging?

Do you display any beauty products or packaging?

I have some press kits on display–ones that catch my eye–and I’ll usually display them for a few months and then dispose of them as a new press kit catches my eye. I don’t tend to keep packaging of regular products, though, and all I keep on top of my storage dresses tends to be perfume and...
