How to Declutter and Organise Your Bathroom, Neatly style

Is your bathroom bursting with half-used products, expired cosmetics, and cluttered cupboards?You’re not alone.


As a professional organiser, I’ve seen how quickly this small but important space can spiral out of control.


Whether you’re getting ready for the day or winding down at night, a calm and organised bathroom can make a big difference to your routine.


Here’s how to declutter your bathroom and cosmetics step by step—and create a space that actually works for you.


1. Take Everything Out

Start by removing every single item from your bathroom drawers, cupboards, shelves, and bags. Yes—even the scary basket under the sink!

This gives you a clear picture of what you actually own and what’s been hiding at the back.


2. Check Expiry Dates & Use-By Labels

Yes—cosmetics and toiletries expire!

Check dates on:

  • Skincare and makeup

  • Sunscreens

  • Medicines

  • Hair products

If it smells off, has separated, you don’t use it or you can’t remember when you bought it—it’s time to let it go.


3. Group Like with Like

Now sort your items into categories:

  • Everyday essentials

  • Backups/refills

  • Special occasion items

  • Cleaning products

  • Hair tools

  • Makeup and skincare

This step is key to creating a simple, functional organising system.


4. Edit Ruthlessly

Ask yourself:

  • Do I actually use this?

  • Do I like it?

  • How many do I need?

You don’t need five half-empty moisturisers or six red lipsticks that don’t suit you.

Less stuff = less mess


5. Assign a Home for Everything

Use bathroom storage solutions like:

  • Clear containers or drawer dividers for grouping categories

  • Lazy Susans for under-the-sink access

  • Wall-mounted shelves or hooks for extra space

Label containers if needed—future you will thank you!


6. Create a Daily-Use Zone

Keep your everyday essentials easy to grab. This could be a tray, a small container, or a top drawer—whatever works for your space.


The goal is to create a calm, clutter-free space that supports your routines.

  • Peace of mind knowing exactly what you own

  • A space that feels clean, calm, and in control
