Many of your 25 resonated with me. I let the FOMO go last year. Too flipping many releases forced me to be more selective and I also let the Sub box go entirely in June. Although I love looking at the beautiful glitter sets in my binder, my love is simple solids with one accent, maybe two. So I wanna see more solids added to core and releases. I have just a handful of ‘unicorns’ and really want to use them too! Maybe you can dedicate a month to Unicorn Month! It would be fun to see others break em out! Maybe participants can throw a couple of their leftover strips in as the prize, spreading the love! Lastly, girl yes, I would love more yellows and oranges and browns too!
I have 8 of yours on my 25 in 25. I added I’m only ordering once a month. I figure if I still love it at the end of the month, and it’s still available i was suppose to have it. If not, then something else is in the horizon. Also, I’m going to look at the sneak peek and not get a box if I don’t love it.
Yes!!! If it's still there for me when Im ready to order than I musta needed it, most things aren't ground breaking so Ill be fine if they aren't there.
I can relate to many on your list...use more decals, use punches/scissors more often, buy it because I love it. I also want to see it before I buy it. FOMO was a real driver in the past, but with owning so many sets now (esp. from the sub boxes), I really need to be wowed. I also want to get back into painting my nails. There are some really beautiful colors/mixes out there that CS just doesn't have, so I want to explore those more too.
Im glad that Im still horrid at painting my nails because that doesn't draw me. I did though try stamping on 2 plastic sticks and it was so easy I can see why people like it! I do though LOVE getting to make my own art. I swear I could never buy another set and make endless different art for 5 years or way more!!
I love this video! I love that you always say it straight out. I haven't heard of the 25 in 25, but I do have someone similar to yours. I do want to try the zipper, more punches and decals. Which, this past year I realized I don't like water decals! I want to use scissors more, but I also have some crafting on my list. Plus, I want to use up my leftovers, so I'm going to try and use some in each mani. Let's see how well that goes! Thanks again for a great video! Love you Friend
Here’s something that you might want to consider. The Pantone colors of the year - maybe once a month take one of those colors and feature it in your mani.
Yes on so many of these! I’m trying to let go of the FOMO as well, still a work in progress. Definitely going to look at the sub box spoilers, it’s usually hard to avoid them anyway. Definitely don’t feel bad about using the same colors over and over, we can always take the idea and use in our own favorite colors! Love the Unicorn month that someone else suggested. Do you have any plans for online nails with friends (like how you and Shannon do mani’s together during ruckus)? I love listening to you talk so much that I watch the planner videos and I don’t use a planner LOL 🥰
I would love to do nails with friends as part of the lives in Sassy!!! I just gotta get my poop in a group to make it happen. For YT Ill do nails with friends ANY time I have a friend with me willing hahahahahahaha
LOVE this video!!! I hadn't heard of 25 in 2025 before but love it! Hhhhmmmm.... I am so grateful that I was able to retire about a week ago. That does impact/change some things for me with my nail stuff though.... The fun thing is that I feel like I can take more time doing my mani's if I want to. I plan to use nail gems for the first time, use my punches and glitter top coats more often. I'm totally with you about letting go of the FOMO. For one, I have a bazillion sets LOL For two, so many of the sets they release now are super similar to past releases that I already have sets of. For three, how many releases/sets truly wow me??? Not many. And, like you said, I can get sets in resell groups or ebay and such. I am keeping a "maybe" list of sets that I might want to get eventually. I was going to call it a wish list, but I tend to just go ahead and buy things on wish lists LOL so I decided titling it a maybe list would help me hold back. I also thought of doing a "dupe the vibe." So if there's a set I do really love, but I could create something similar with what I already have, then I can do that instead of buying the set.... Didn't do it this time (bought the set on Ebay instead lol) but for Crown Jewels... I thought I could take Jewelry Box which is similar, put it over a fuschia set then add your green glitter top coat and that would give the same vibe as Crown Jewels without truly duping it. I love watchng your mani videos Stacy but also really look forward to more deep dive videos like this one! Happy 2025!!!
Im so with you on all of this- it's easy to just "get it" but it's also not THAT hard to dupe it- and girl we got more sets than Fa so we will be ok hahahahaha Happpppppy Retirement!!
I'd love to have more frequent binder videos if you feel it would help you stay accountable to that particular goal. I mean, if you make a YT video while organizing/purging, at least you are also earning a dollar for the trouble. 🤣
Great video!! Now, do you really expect me to remember all the 25 you mentioned?!😆 Maybe the last 5! So, one of the things I always love about your TH-cam’s is listening to you talk. And this time I enjoyed watching you take off your mani-yes, it was like watching paint dry, but I still enjoyed it!😄 And I took note of how long you left the remover on. 😉 Of the 25 I can remember: 1. I need to organize my new sets. Because of so many releases, I can’t keep up. But I know if they’re in order, then I know what I have. 2. I agree FA needs to work on their color range. If you go to a beauty store you can find just about every shade of every color in a paint on nail polish. I picked up a couple of ‘Wicked’ shades during Halloween and really love them, but didn’t get a chance to use them. I’m a hoar, but not a user!!😆 I just look at my collection and think about what I want to do next. 3. And that brings me to #3: It stresses me that I have so many sets and that by the time I use them, they’re out of style. Especially the designs, which I’ve recently realized that if it is a mix of different designs within a set, I need to make sure the ones I want to use, if even only for an accent, I can use them. I really struggled with the pink and green striped Christmas set and finally gave up. And now I have two accent sets of the reindeer and cabin I can’t use. They just didn’t fit my nails in any configuration. So, they may be coming your collection pile. 4. I need to use more of my decals and scissors. But because I’m lucky to get a mani in once or twice a month it just doesn’t come together. 5. Re: sub boxes, I too have become more selective. If there are sets I like within a box, I just buy them elsewhere. Well, that’s all I got!!😁❤
Loved this video ❤ I love hearing everything you talk about and always look forward to your next one. You do make the group fun and interesting 😊
Thank you Jenny!!

OMG!!!!! Maybe in June I'll free up the unicorns for pride month!!
For your nailfies, you could start small and put a collage together for each month. Then end of year should be easier 🙂
That's a good idea!
Ok thats a good idea!!!
I loving the Pink Armor. That and Gelish change the game.
I love them!!

I told you I’d let you know how I felt about the advent and I can say I really like and will use all of them 😊
Fantastic- thats best case!!

Love you friend!!! I agree that water slide aren't my fav- I struggle a bit with em!
Here’s something that you might want to consider. The Pantone colors of the year - maybe once a month take one of those colors and feature it in your mani.
There color is brown this year- I mean I would gladly wear brown for a month! hahahahaha
Sometimes I find myself ready to comment or talking to you like you're live. 😂❤
LOLOL I always talk to youtube!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I enjoy when you do the deep dives or something similar.
YAY Pam me too- I have a few other good ones planned!
Good morning love hearing all your thoughts and looking forward to your new videos. Also love the polish remover hack. I will definitely be trying it.
Marie has done it like that for a while, when my last push top bottle broke I figured I may as well swap!!
Happy 2025 😊
Yes girl, to you too!!!

@@stacyssassystyles Thank you!!!
I'd love to have more frequent binder videos if you feel it would help you stay accountable to that particular goal.
I mean, if you make a YT video while organizing/purging, at least you are also earning a dollar for the trouble. 🤣
EXACTLY hahahahahahaha I shall collect all their dollars :P
I sometimes use your videos for inspiration and just use different colors.
YAY thats perfect!!!
Does color street ever respond to your monthly emails?
You get an automated one that says "thanks for your feedback" hahahahaha
