I found the best Valentine’s Day buy from Target’s dollar spot – it’s perfect for makeup storage and only costs $3

THE simplest ideas are often the best and a home stylist has found a cute way of using her Valentine’s Day buy.

It came from Target’s dollar spot and is perfect for makeup storage.

This cute, eye-catching container was a bargain too, at only $3.

The inspiration came from Flashes of Style (@flashesofstyle).

This lady has 289,000 followers on her TikTok, where she shares her never-ending style ideas.

“Home décor and holidays and cozy,” is how she describes her platform remit.

It’s the season of love with Valentine’s Day approaching, and she seems to be particularly roused by all things pink, red, and heart-shaped.

But in this post, it was a pair of bright red lips that got her attention.

She could see the potential to make the perfect adornment for Valentine’s Day.

“Target dollar spot Valentine’s find,” she revealed in her video.

She had found a functional way of using this container on her vanity table.

“This jar makes for the perfect lipstick holder,” she said, as she added her numerous lipsticks and lip gels.

There was a lot of interest in her post, attracting over 48,000 likes and hundreds of comments.

Some commenters were tearing their hair out at the lost opportunity.

One person said: “I’m so mad, this was in my cart while shopping so I put it back because I didn’t know what I would use it for and now it’s sold out. I want it for this exact reason.”

But this person was more fortunate: “Omg, I bought it but didn’t know what to do with it, thanks.”

This viewer was inspired: “I got this and this is such a cute idea for my lippies. I’m using it for candy right now. Thanks for the inspo.”

And this person already had one but used hers for something else altogether: “I put pens on my desk at work.”
