If you follow beauty influencers on TikTok, YouTube, or Instagram, you’ve probably seen the infamous Ikea Alex Drawers. This popular wooden unit (in white, brown, gray or black) is available in a variety of sizes and number of drawers, perfect for organizing a variety of cosmetics and beauty items. Alex drawers are on wheels so you can easily move them around the house.
Selling for $110, the darker-colored Alex Drawers can be used to organize all your nail polish, makeup, and skincare products (and really anything else you want). Alex Drawers’ trendiness goes beyond what’s inside. Do a Google search to see how people have “upcycled” their units in hundreds of ways, from painting them colorful to adding legs to joining two together to create a base for a vanity or desk.
How to Buy Alex Drawer Dupes
Shopping for drawers that feature all of Alex’s versatility isn’t a science, but it’s important to know a few things.
- Decide what you will use it for and how many drawers you need. Some devices have 5, others have 9.
- Decide how much space you want to store it to see if you want a wider or taller, slimmer space.
- Choose your favorite color or plan to customize or DIY it using one of the many hacks you can find online.
- Decide if you want it to be stationary or add wheels.
But if you don’t want to dive into reality, there are plenty of great options to find. We’ve done the work for you!
