All the GWPs and sales really rope you in. I’m trying to only purchase during black friday and maybe one mid-year sale this year. I only get a Beauty Heroes box when I really want to try the products now. Same with Laurel and Reed and Boxwalla. I somehow bought way too much over black friday this year, so I should cut myself off altogether until black friday 2025. We will see. Skin care has become my one and only splurge for myself.
I will say the gifts with purchase really did used to rope me in about 2 years ago. Especially with credo and those quarterly or so gifts where you’d spend like $100 and get whatever amount in free products. I loved those, and they still make up a decent amount of my inventory. I don’t think I have bought one of those credo ones for a few years now. I have been less excited by the Beauty Heroes Black Friday stacked gifts with purchases too. I think at this point my biggest temptation/guilty pleasure is that I am a Beauty Heroes subscriber. If I ended that, I could spend the next year or so working though my whole collection. But it brings me so much joy being a subscriber, so I stick with it even though it’s very much a “want” and by no means a “need.” 😀😀
I’m doing a no buy 2025 for beauty products bc I have so much stuff! Only keeping the boxwalla subscription bc the products are so beautiful and luckily every other month. I’m setting a goal of finishing a product in each category every month! Better to slather it on than have it go bad and be wasted!
A no buy is so great! I have done that at times over the years, too. I’ve never gotten Boxwalla but they sure do have beautiful products and I can see how every other month is such an ideal time frame. I hope you have great success with your goals!! Thanks for sharing. 😊
I am also guilty of having so many products… it’s kind of ridiculous. I am planning and hoping I will stick to my plan of not buying anything throughout 2025 but I am keeping Beauty Heroes for now.
I am glad it's back.
