I'm more likely to leave most anything lying around versus putting it back in a box, especially if it's a high-quantity cheap thing like bobby pins. As a result they're just everywhere. If all I had to do was hold up the 5 I used that day to a magnetic strip on the wall/inside of the medicine cabinet that I have to open anyway, I'd be more likely to "put them away".
For some reason I can't be bothered to open/close an altoids tin for them and it looks more untidy (for me) to just leave one open with things spilling out of it. There are all-acrylic transparent cosmetics drawers available but unless I'm at Goodwill they cost more than I'm willing to spend.
If you're into sticking just about everything onto magnetic surfaces (spices on the inside of cupboard doors, memos + magnets on a strip by the front door, upright office inbox things on the side of the fridge next to the sink for dish brushes, medicine reminder boxes on the wall next to the bed) then it's more economical to buy a pack/long strip of them for $15 like this versus some specialty things like results for "cosmetics drawer organizer".
You can use things like tackle boxes or probably come up with all kinds of alternatives but if we assume that I'm not very clever or creative or punctual or organized then this is a neat-but-not-life-changing tip.
Edit: Also I know I gave you amazon links but honestly I'm in a weird living situation where my elderly Chinese landlady gets my packages delivered to her front door since UPS/USPS can't or won't deliver to my backyard apartment and I feel really rude/intrusive having her need to be a middleman for dumb little packages, like $4 adhesive cable clips or heavy things like a vertical bike rack, so I don't like to order things that frequently despite having prime. So while some of the organizers are $12 on amazon, they're often marked up 160% at physical stores that might not price-match. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Get a magnet sheet. You can find it stationery shops, it was €5 for 5 here, standard A4 format.
Cut it out (measure the are you want to cover ofc) and use some regular stockings/pantyhose as the filter. Tape it to the magnet sheet... and that's it.
Alternatively you can buy magnetic tape at DIY store. Like this one

It's like regular tape but the non-sticky side is magnet. You can make a square out from the tape and put the stockings on it and then cover it (the tape side) with some regular tape. Or with another layer of magnetic tape. Then you have magnet on both side tho it doesn't really matter imo.

I put 4 squares in each corner, it holds pretty well. Haven't had one fall yet.
