One pod. Endless configurations. A smarter way to pack your kit.
There’s a moment every makeup artist knows. You’re mid-job, the clock is against you, and you reach into your kit for a specific brush only to pull out three you didn’t want first. Or worse: you can’t immediately tell which brushes are clean and which have just been used. It’s a small friction, but it happens dozens of times across a working day. And over a career, those small frictions add up to real time, real focus, real energy you’d rather spend on the artistry itself.
This is why the artists who work fastest and cleanest all share one habit: they compartmentalise. Everything has a purpose, and everything has a place. MY MULTI POD is built for exactly that.
The working artist’s case for compartmentalisation
Compartmentalisation isn’t about being precious. It’s about being fast. When your tools are separated by purpose clean from used, complexion from eyes, one client’s brushes from another’s your hand knows where to go before your brain has to think about it. You stop looking. You start creating.
It also protects your work. A clean brush that’s shared a pocket with a used one isn’t really clean anymore. A sharpened pencil that’s rolling around with loose tools loses its point. And if you’re doing back-to-back clients, the ability to keep one person’s products separate from another’s is as much a hygiene standard as a professional courtesy.
Compartmentalisation is the quiet skill that separates a good artist’s kit from a great one. It’s the reason senior artists backstage seem to move with such calm under pressure their system is doing half the work for them.
Why aesthetics aren’t vanity — they’re function
It’s worth saying out loud: a clean, functional, beautifully organised kit is not a luxury. It’s a working tool. When your kit looks considered, clients read you as considered. When everything is upright, visible and contained, the mental load of the job drops. You breathe easier. You work cleaner. And the people watching you work the producer, the stylist, the bride, the director absorb the signal that they’re in professional hands.
A clean aesthetic is also self-care for the artist. Your kit is the environment you spend your working life inside of. If it’s chaos, your day feels like chaos. If it’s calm, your day feels like calm. Compartmentalisation is how you build that calm on purpose.
Meet MY MULTI POD
MY MULTI POD is a compact, upright, zip-around organiser designed to hold one SMALL FLEX-POT in a fully customisable format. Think of it as a working essential smaller than a brush buddy, more flexible than a static pouch, and built to keep brushes, tools and products standing up, visible and accessible.
The design does a lot quietly:
• Customisable interior — drop in a 1, 2 or 4-section SMALL FLEX-POT depending on the job.
• Upright organisation — brushes, pencils, liners and taller tools stand to attention, never buried.
• Compact silhouette — a smaller, more portable alternative to larger kit storage, perfect for streamlined setups and on-the-go work.
• Signature MYKITCO build — black canvas exterior with PVC panels for visibility, designed to survive real kit life.
It sits naturally alongside your MY PENCIL POD and MY CANVAS BAGS, and it slots into the wider MYKITCO modular system — so it plays nicely with everything you already own.
Ways artists are using it
The beauty of a compact, customisable pod is that no two artists use it the same way. A few of the set-ups we’re already seeing:
• Clean vs used brushes — a 2-section FLEX-POT turns one pod into a dual-purpose station. Clean on one side, used on the other. No contamination, no confusion.
• Client-by-client separation — running two clients on the same day? Use one MULTI POD per client and you’ll never mix tools or cross-contaminate products.
• Job-type kits — a dedicated pod for bridal, a dedicated one for editorial, a dedicated one for SFX or hair and body. Pick the pod that matches the job and go.
• Category-specific tools — one pod for brushes, one for pencils and liners, one for liquid tools. When everything has a lane, packing and unpacking becomes effortless.
• Travel and touch-up — pull a single MULTI POD from your main kit and you’ve got a self-contained, upright, fully functional mini setup for location shifts or on-the-go retouches.
Small footprint. Big workflow upgrade.
MY MULTI POD isn’t here to replace your big kit. It’s here to make your big kit make sense. It’s the modular layer that turns one generic storage space into a structured system of purpose-built stations. Compact, customisable, and completely aligned with the way working artists actually work.
If your kit feels heavier than your artistry, it’s probably not telling you to carry less. It’s telling you to compartmentalise better. Start with one MULTI POD. Build from there.
Because when your tools are organised, everything downstream of them — your pace, your hygiene standards, your professional image and your artistry — gets sharper.
