Build It Your Way: How MY SMALL FLEX-POTS Let Your Kit Evolve With Your Artistry

Modular. Colour-coded. Completely yours.

Ask any working makeup artist what makes their kit feel truly theirs and they won’t point to the products inside — they’ll point to the way it’s packed. The layout. The flow. The quiet, satisfying logic of knowing where every tool lives before you’ve even unzipped the bag. Because the truth is, a kit isn’t just a collection of makeup. It’s a working environment. A studio in miniature. And like any studio, it has to be built around the artist who uses it.

That’s the thinking behind the newest additions to the FLEX-POT family: MY SMALL FLEX-POTS. Three new cubes, one modular system, and endless ways to create a kit that looks as considered as the artistry it supports.

Why a clean, functional kit is artistry

There is a reason the best artists obsess over their kits. Organisation is artistry. When you’re mid-look and the light is shifting on set, or the bride is a breath away from walking down the aisle, the last thing you want is to be digging through a jumble of pencils, pads and disposables. A clean, structured kit frees your hands, your eyes, and your focus to do the thing you’re actually there to do: create.

A functional kit is also a professional statement. It tells the client, the producer, the bride, the performer in the chair that you take your craft seriously. A considered kit reads as a considered artist. That quiet confidence of opening your bag to a grid of perfectly ordered tools is more than aesthetic — it’s trust, built in silence.

And yet, no two artists work the same way. A bridal specialist’s kit looks nothing like a film artist’s. An editorial setup on a fashion shoot doesn’t need what a commercial setup needs. Which is exactly why a fixed, one-size-fits-all kit has never quite worked for professionals. The kit has to move with the artist, not the other way around.

Meet the new building blocks of your kit

MY SMALL FLEX-POTS are the compact evolution of the original MY FLEXPOT — reimagined to give artists more ways to customise, organise and personalise their setup. Crafted from MYKITCO’s signature tough-yet-flexible silicone, they come in three new configurations designed to slot into any workflow:

•       1-Section — a clean, uninterrupted pot for pads, disposables or bulkier items

•       2-Section — ideal for splitting clean from used, or product from tools

•       4-Section — for fine-grained control over pencils, brow tools, lip wands and the smaller things that get lost

Each pot is half the footprint of the original FLEX-POT, making them perfect for micro-organisation. They’re designed to fit seamlessly into the new MYKITCO HYGIENE BAGS, & MY MULTI POD — so whatever bag you’re packing, the system scales with you.

A kit that adapts, job to job

The real magic of a modular system is that your kit stops being one fixed thing. It becomes a set of components you can rearrange on demand. A bridal job this weekend and a short film shoot next week shouldn’t require the same layout — and now, they don’t have to.

Pull out the 4-section pot for editorial days, where pencils and detail tools rule. Swap in a 1-section for an on-set day where you’re throwing in pads, wipes, and disposables by the handful. Need clean brushes on one side and used on the other? Drop in a 2-section. The configuration is always up to you — and it can change as often as your work does.

This is what “modular” actually means in practice. Not a gimmick, but a working system that gets faster the longer you use it because every decision has been made in advance. You’re not rebuilding your kit each morning. You’re refining it.

The colour-coding advantage

Available across all five MYKITCOLOUR shades, SMALL FLEX-POTS also let you bring visual logic to your kit. Colour-code by client. By job. By clean versus used. By product category. It’s the kind of small decision that saves seconds in the moment — and seconds add up quickly when you’re working under pressure.

For pro artists who share assistants or work alongside a team, a colour-coded system also removes ambiguity. No one has to ask where anything is. The kit speaks for itself.

A system that grows with you

If you’re just starting out, MY SMALL FLEX-POTS are a low-commitment way to begin building a professional, scalable kit from day one. If you’re an established artist, they’re a chance to rethink a setup that’s been living on autopilot. Either way, the premise is the same: your kit should serve your artistry, not slow it down.

Pair them with the FLEX-POT LID/RISER for secure storage, height adjustment or quick stacking. Pack them. Stack them. Colour-code them. Then rearrange tomorrow.

Small pots. Big impact. The modular kit era starts here.
