Cleaning: Attacking the Makeup Drawer

I don't know about your house, but one of the hardest spots to deep clean is my makeup drawer.  In the past I've tried 409, magic eraser, even running it through the dishwasher.  Here was my latest breakthrough:
 Wiping off the lipstick, eyeliner and blush residue was a breeze!  However - Almost anything that Goo Gone takes off, I can remove with just a little olive oil.  So whether you want to use orange scented oil-based cleaner, or just a little olive oil on a paper towel, cleaning the makeup residue is a cinch.  And now my makeup drawer looks a lot more respectable!
