วีดีโอ

Love the content of your video. A quick question: What brand of eyeglasses are you wearing, I really like them.

Very well said!!! Stocking up can rob us of fully enjoying what we already have! It's so easy to fall for the stocking up trap when there is a major sale at our favorite retailers...

Beautiful shade!

amazing video! Looking forward to watch more of your videos :)

I also have have a tendency to purchase "backups" for the same reason you used to. For my skincare it works fine because I go through skincare on a regular basis. However I have so many blush "backups" for when I hit pan on that one blush I've been using for 2 years. I went from buying makeup freely to a low buy and now I'm on a no-buy. I recently decluttered 10 of my blushes to friends and it's been less stressful knowing that the blushes had good homes and I have less blushes now. Also what you said about having less makes you appreciate what you have more is very true.

I love empties. I wish you would mention or list the names of the products you liked so that we could get try them. For example the balm cleanser you liked. I would like to try it

I watch this and I realised I don't have to do anything, i just have 1 soap, 2 makeup remover, 1 face cream, 1 sunscreen, 1 serum and 4 lipsticks 😅 i thougt I had so much stuff.

This flat lay is a great idea! Im getting ready to film mine for the last 6 months and might try a similar format. I feel similar about the aqua spray and fix+ - just not worth the price for the functionality. Comgrats on all your empties!

It would be a good idea since you do actually use up so many products throughout the year , maybe for example get a plastic free option let’s say for shampoo

I’m still a capitalist lol meaning that I still want to buy things but I want to buy things that mean something to me and really enjoy them and use them up

Well said

Love to see all these empties! Great work using up your products. I'm impressed.

It's a great series 👍👍👍👍 I watched almost all the videos for 3 hours straight, keep going with it❤️❤️🐦

Around the holidays Urban Decay usually sells a full-size two-pack of the setting spray at an amazing price, I usually pick one up during the end of year sales for even more of a discount.

Your channel is so refreshing. Things are so unnecessary sometimes. Cheap products ftw

Glad to see the mindset you have towards the monetary value of your empties. Seemed like a good year!

Wow, makeup is getting so expensive… were your prices in US dollars, Canadian, Australian…? Just curious!

Love the average age metric you’re using! A smart way to see how quickly you use up items. I might start using this in my inventory sheet. 😊 Thanks for the vid!

Great introduction video! I agree, declutting products often makes me regret it and repurchase half the items back. I prefer to keep them a bit longer until I'm confident that I no longer care about the product. I have been panning for a few years now. Even though I have taken a few breaks, I keep coming back because deep down, I still want to focus on using what I have. Buying new makeup just doesn't satisfy me anymore.

Great video! I did a no buy for a year, and it went amazingly well. Then I decided to go on a low buy and within 6 months, I purchased over 100 products. The sad reality is that I didn't sit down to count the damage I've done until the feeling of overwhelming anxiety started hitting me. I have decided I am going on a no buy again for at least a year. Then, I will reward myself with one purchase and start all over again. I'm really hoping to build a healthy relationship with shopping and stop this overconsumption habit once and for all

Absolutely beautiful ❤ moments like this will be remembered for a lifetime

Ahhhh, I am also doing a no-buy, or at least until I get down to one product of each category that I regularly use. I don't have that much but it's a lot more than I need at one time, so I'll be working through things and hopefully I'll have finished some products by the time I move this summer. Nice video!

I don't have too many products but in order to avoid overspending, I've made a spreadsheet with the product names, types, personal rating, cost at the time of purchase, and so on. It helps me see what I have, what works and what doesn't for me. And I've found if I set limits (i.e. no more than two serums, two cleansers, two toners, three moisturizers, and three sunscreens) it helps me keep a mental tally of what I actually need on hand. I go through some of those categories faster than other based on skin needs, and keeping a smaller stock helps me assess. I use tretinoin, and summers are hot and very sunny here, so I go through sunscreen faster than many people - especially since I wear Korean and Japanese susncreens and their tubes tend to be smaller. Plus, items don't expire before I can use them - so my money is well spent. Overall, great points!

It is hard to move on from a shadow you really enjoy using! You are so right though, we need to give love to All the other shadows we love in our collections ❤

excellent video

I would like 2 different videos if you could do it.

This is so satisfying

Very nice progress, you’re doing great. After almost a year I finally finished my Too Faced concealer 😊

I've just discovered your channel and I'm in love with your content 😌 are you on IG?

New subscriber ❤ love all your progress photos, they are so satisfying!

What lipstick are you wearing ?? 😮😮it’s so beautiful!!!

I have 1 black eyeshadow and it's Urban Decay's Blackout.

I got into single shadoes a couple yegars ago but fins the only ones I still use are Makeup Geeks Matrix system because the shades are monochrome perfection. Lately I find that I prefer to have palettes because all the tones look good together and I get far more inspiration from a set color story.

i have 0 black eyeshadows lol thats so interesting

I have 8 matte blacks and 3 with sequin shimmer 🖤🖤

I have 3+ black eyeshadows and I never use black 🙄

I have 2 black eyeshadows, one of them has pan.

This a wonderful philosophy, I’m attempting a low buy this year and the issue was, I have so much that I want to just enjoy. Not just makeup, books and tea as well. Your comments about focussing on enjoying the products you have really resonate.

Loved your reflections! I'm experiencing some of what you described as well.

Love Your Video ❤

I'm about to post my update on IG! Great work!

Great ! Enjoyed watching it. Loved the addition of the cat he/she is so beautiful and so precious 😍

Omg your kitty is so gorgeous ❤. The La Mer is so expensive!

Love the price breakdown and how brutally honest your feedback and product reviews are! So sick of content creators who rave about a product as it is a life changing experience and actually it is just mehhh. Good luck with your channel development!

i ran across your video I cannot say by accident, this was meant for me to see I'm in the same boat I had to stop buying because being it's the newset thing etc. I put the brake on buying on impluse and focused on do I really need it, what would it change (nothing except one more item on my shelf) now will I use it or will it get dusty and wait on the next item to come out? I'll use what I have clear off a shelf, have more cleaner enviroment space and feel good about my choices? Give myself a hi-five

The reasons of your no buy are 100% same as mine. Only I cannot stop. But maybe it is because I have one more problem. I live in a country where the most hyped skincare brands are not sold. So anytime a family member come to visit from Europe, I place orders and buy too much cause I get scared and think it's the only opportunity. I would really appreciate if you do follow ups videos on your no buy and give tips on how you managed to succeed. I cannot enjoy anything I use cause it's been sitting there for a year ... or 2 ! I've lost interest... and it's not what I want to use use right now but have to because of the expiration date. I am so stressed when I look at all the products I stocked up, don't know how I'm going to manage to use them all. But worse, I cannot stop purchasing more product in the hope that it might help with my hyperpigmentation. Sorry for the long comment.

Improve the quality of your audio sound and you'll grow faster, you deserve it 😉

You are so beautiful 😍

That’s funny i found your vid by accident after i just bought some body care and decided to not buy more before i finish what i have since i get stress with too much product and i like to have less stuff since i’m clean freak and i care about the expire dates, i never really liked minimalism but i prefer the comfort that it comes with it financially or mentally

This is a great idea! I rotate my closet, so I wear more. I should do this since I'm so overwhelmed by choices. Thanks for the in inspiration!
