What is ur best bathroom organization tip?!

[@Billy33753]

Love clean towels, sheets I was my towels every 3 days

[@amandamiller7926]

Get another basket like the 1 for your flossers and put your cotton rounds in there That way they won't keep falling out

Hi girlie, My name is Mary and I’m a Momma and Grandma. I truly enjoy watching you KZbin’s. I have learned over the years to use a mop or swifter on my high up areas to clean and my shower walls or walls in general. Also toilet bowl cleaner, cleans tubs so well…not the brush that cleaner. Put your steamer in the laundry closet. Love what you are doing. Love watching your progress. Love from Portland Oregon. Momma/Grandma Mary. Love watching your

@@MaryRogers-wl4ji thanks so much for watching! Such a good cleaning tip

I had a bathroom sink like yours in my last place. I used a large plastic cutting board to cover the sink so I had more surface area to work with when I did my hair or makeup. It was a total game changer! It also prevents hair from going down the drain and creating clogs. :)

Such a brilliant hack 👍👍👍

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@themakeupengineer092 OMG love this idea

Hi Lucia, what a fun video and I can relate having lived in small apartments. Bathrooms can get very humid and it might affect the shelf life/longevity of the cosmetics stored in the medicine cabinet which is located so close to your shower. Sometimes the medicine cabinet door intentionally closes n such a way that allows for air flow. I used a small profile plastic cabinet on wheels from the Container Store to store cosmetics. I stored it just outside my bathroom which helped limited the exposure of the products to humidity. Keep up the great organizing effort!

[@LuciaCordaro]

Such a good tip!! Wouldn’t even think of that

[@Tlynn86CG]

You are so close to 20k! So excited for you!!

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@Tlynn86CG awe thanks so much :))

[@JoannaSelvan]

I enjoy lo-fi in background of your videos so much! Thank you for cleaning motivation!!

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@JoannaSelvan yay!! 🥰🥰

[@amyfaurote1488]

My best bathroom tip is to close the door. LOL. Peace 🕊️

[@amandablodgett3713]

I liked what you said, "It's good for my mental health for my space to be clean and tidy." I feel the same way. So, I guess this is my sign. I've lived in my own apartment for almost two years now and it's not exactly the way I want it. I have to declutter some things behind my recliner in the living room and I really want to treat myself and put a bookcase behind there, but first I need move the stuff behind there. You speak my language lady!

[@LuciaCordaro]

Yes definitely!!! You get it!!! 🤍

[@christineg6123]

Best bathroom tip is buying reusable/washable cotton rounds and cloths! That way you don't need to store disposable ones. Also using reusable period products save a lot of space too. I haven't watched the video yet so idk if you go over this.

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@christineg6123 very good point!! And sustainable

[@NotDaisyNYC]

So much more organized! You can get some attractive containers to put on top of the over-the-toilet storage to store your extra cotton rounds, toilet paper, etc., or even your steamer if you want it in the bathroom rather than the ottoman. That would free up a lot of the top inside shelf

[@LuciaCordaro]

Good idea!!

[@ASimplyBookedLife]

I think clear acrylic holders/shelves on the wall beside your mirror for your main makeup would work really well. Pretty sure they are adhesive and shouldn’t damage the wall.

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@ASimplyBookedLife I used some of those in Chicago! But they were drilled in. Adhesive would be great!!

[@lindasangiovanni29]

Great organization........except for the top shelf of your over the toilet storage cabinet. All those packages of cotton rounds that were kind of just stuffed on that top shelf could go under your sink in an extra storage bin. You could buy a small round container with a lid for your every day use of the cotton rounds and keep that in your over the toilet cabinet and refill as needed. I hope this is helpful. 😊

[@LuciaCordaro]

Lol fair i should probs fix that!!!

[@Watchover09]

Omg I lol so big when the cotton pads fell 😂😂 that’s the reality of nyc bathrooms. Even when you think it’s all organized 😂

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@Watchover09 HAHA ikr

[@claudianoble-cotten2942]

Hey Lucia! You should get some more aesthetic baskets and put one on each shelf or so, make a design. You would be able to store your makeup brushes, the dental strips, like you have, and something else. I think that would look good. What do you think? And that way you could grab the basket with all the brushes and then put the basket back when you’re done.

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@claudianoble-cotten2942 good point!!!

[@HH-zb5ul]

New video 😊 love that ❤

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@HH-zb5ul hehe yay!!

[@pattikendall3848]

looks great!! you also have storage on top of your over the tolet cabnet!! you can put extra things that don not weigh much up there!! i have to be creative with my storage also!!

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@pattikendall3848 yes!! I’ve been putting my clean towels there!

[@mariahm15]

Where's the makeup organizer from? It would be perfect for what I need. :) I love these organizing videos. Keep them coming! Your apt is so cute by the way.

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@mariahm15 it’s honestly so old sorry I don’t have a link!!! But I’m sure if u search bamboo makeup organizer something similar will pop up. And yay thank u :)

[@RuebenNomura]

Aloha wow you make good clean ingredients vlog on this video

[@DebZimmerman-f7x]

Use some of your make up bags to put your brushes in to keep them clean and don’t forget the top of your over toilet top shelf.

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@DebZimmerman-f7x true! And I put clean towels on the top!

[@HeyitsDeirdre]

great video

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@HeyitsDeirdre glad u liked it!!!

[@deidrewiza3776]

I’ve been trying to dry brush for years but keep forgetting.

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@deidrewiza3776 ikr it’s so hard to remember

[@claudianoble-cotten2942]

Do the cotton rounds fit in one of the blue baskets?

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@claudianoble-cotten2942 probably!!!

[@laurathomas6014]

Use the top shelf of the over-the-toilet stand.

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@laurathomas6014 yes that’s where I put my towels!

[@amberfigueroa1002]

Maybe once you make it through all the cotton round you have switch to reusable ones? Less to store, less money spent on non-reusable ones, and good for the environment.

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@amberfigueroa1002 true

[@Tlynn86CG]

Using cotton yarn, I crochet reusable rounds. Do you have a PO Box? I could send you some to try out. You just throw them in the washer!

[@sherriedavis9754]

Lucia why not put your floss pics in a jar 🫙 which would give you more storage space and do the same for your cotton rounds they’d be contained💖💄🥰💋

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@sherriedavis9754 fair!!!

[@alangiles776]

Hi Lucia 🙂 When it comes to bathroom products, us guys do have things easy. A razor, hand wash, shampoo, shower gel, shaving cream, face wash, flannel, toothbrush, toothpaste, toilet rolls, not much else 🤔. There is a saying in television: never work with animals or children. You can add, never work with bathroom cabinets 😂.

[@LuciaCordaro]

@@alangiles776 haha fair I have much more than that!

[@NopeNopeNopetyNope]

It drives me nuts how messy all the towels are hung up both in the bathroom and the kitchen on the oven door.

[@LuciaCordaro]

😭😭 lol how do i fix
