I love my eyeshadows and decluttering some after one of your videos and a HLP decluttering. The idea behind hers is to intentional in their use, yours the amount. So I got rid of the old and the ones I didn’t use or didn’t like anymore. I have a specific space for them and if the space is full I have to get rid of them. What I do know is pick every week a handful of them and wear them. It’s a me moment to enjoy looking at them and helps me with be intentional without getting rid of a whole bunch of them
I know it’s more time consuming but it’s what we all want for sure. Maybe content creators can break it down into different videos and I will be there for each and every one. I tend to tap out of the huge makeup declutters when they just say not keeping this, not keeping this, not keeping this and not much more. It means nothing to me.
U should make a bin for the "maybe next time" ones and then start using them. Then u will quickly know if u want to keep them. I used to have this many palettes and I just kept decluttering. I know it's not the same since it's not my job, but it felt great. I buy smaller palettes now too. Thanks for showing this. I think u did a great job and made some tough decisions. ❤❤
I took a break from makeup from 2015 - 2022. During that time, formula improvements were so fast that by 2022, all my dream eye products, minus magic curling mascara for double lashes, were invented/made avail at reasonable prices. This is fantastic but now i still see all these beautiful palettes as "rare" and am having trouble resisting more, more, more. And thanks to robert welsh and others, i can even apply them "correctly" to get the look i want. So ive gotten attached to them all, and ive accumulated too many in a year, but having trouble stopping...
Same. Personally I think it’s a huge undertaking but I was considering depotting as many as I can and putting like colors next to each other. I know there are many repeats. I think I’m too lazy at the moment. 😂 I have been buying singles and very small pallets as of late, like the visart ones.
Same same I need to get a bookshelf ladder now bc my too many palettes are in a bottom dresser drawer and I miss them being out and seeing them all every day
Your declutter of the Going Coconuts palette from Colourpop made me pull mine out and use it again today. There is a reason I will keep that and That's Taupe in my collection forever. Just both too good to get rid of ever!
I finally decluttered my original Naked palette after 13 yrs and I survived! Love watching declutter videos! I decluttered most of my Warm-toned eyeshadows when I finally confirmed I’m not warm toned and I just look tired and blah in the wrong shades/tones. Ex - warm browns. Just because I have brown eyes doesn’t mean I should wear browns. Blah. 😂 You look great in your cool toned shades btw - silvers grays pinks. Beautiful! So pretty! Yes agreed - the older I get the less experimental and less makeup I want to wear. I just wear the right colors near my face and don’t even need much makeup.
It’s so hard to let your Precious go. I hoard mine like Dragon’s Gold. I have at least 30 years worth and when I tire of them I store them downstairs. Every once and a while I sort through that stash and look through them and reminisce.
I totally agree about the Colourpop Harry Potter palette!!! I thought the same when it came last year. I bought one for me and each of my three daughters. I love love love the sweet talk palette.
I have a lot of the same palettes and watching you go through the ones I have that you're decluttering has given me some new ideas for looks with them! Thank you!!
To get the most out of Lust for Dusk, you need to start playing with mixing warm and cool tones. It's my favorite owned palette, but I personally adore mixing warm and cool tones.
Honestly I got bored with hoarding makeup and I got rid of a lot of my makeup I just kept the stuff I really like and I feel better like I have more free time and I feel lighter
Great job with the decluttering of your eyeshadow palettes, Mandy! I imagine some were hard to pass along, I know I have a hard time decluttering some of mine. You mentioned you haven't been too impressed with the Milani eyeshadows. I recently got the Whiskey Business palette and find I pick it up and use it more and more. A good neutral matte palette that creates a pretty eye look.
I will highlight my shoulders to do any mundane task lol! Walking the dog, mopping the floor, etc ... I have a beautiful collection of potent highlighters via ipsy but also mature skin, so i enjoy any excuse to "highlight without caution," in fact i just dusted myself with golden shimmer in crlebration of removing my bra...
It’s time for me to go through mine as well. I’m setting a goal for myself that I’m not sure I can hit. I want to keep it to between 40-50. I have been going for more single shadow looks, even looks I create with just eyeliner and bronzer, so just where I am right now in my makeup journey, feels like a lot needs to go. Also, my singles collection has recaptured my heart! ❤ My MAC, Sydney Grace, Makeup Geek, ABH singles are back front and center in my vanity. I can’t wait to see what makes the cut and gets to stay in your collection!
I decluttered my going coconuts, but used some of the shadows in it (magnetic palette) to replace glitters in other palettes, like Off Melrose which is a favorite.
Sadly, I agree with you on the Colourpop Harry Potter palette. I'm keeping it because the packaging is so good and I love Harry Potter. You can actually get a nice neutral look with the brown tones, both cooler and warmer, and I love the Gillyweed shade!
I understand your love of the BH palettes and wanting the Christmas palette in other packaging. I wish all of their palettes were still available. I really want the Love In London palette!
Hey Mandy, long time viewer of yours. I’m just starting the video, but I want to say TY. I finally got that Nabla cutie you love and it’s incredible. I’m also so excited for the new ND I can’t wait for a sale and I’m getting it!
We watch declutters to vicariously see the many palettes. And it would be nice if you can open each of them and do a close up. Some even do swatches, those are the best. These type of declutter i just skip on watching
I FINALLY got my Sydney Grace order today after almost canceling it bc of some issues. It was a big one😅 So. I'm not even sure why you're keeping anything else. Kidding, of course, but HOLY EYESHADOW FROM HEAVEN. I'm stunned. I can't wait to put on my eye makeup tomorrow morning. I ordered one brush (blush) because I truly do not need another makeup brush but wanted to try them. It's the blush brush I've been searching for my whole life (I had a feeling). That's a little dramatic, I know, but now I want them all. And I have good (BK Beauty, Rephr, Anisa) brushes. I'm betting they'll dethrone a few. This is going to cost me. I'll blame you 😊
The petals en pointe palette is pretty. Might have to get a sixth one of CP. The quartz and stone cold fox palettes look fairly much like their gone metal one. I have their gone metal. That is one i keep reaching for.
I don’t know how you’re declutter palettes I have 3 tall Alex drawers full and I’m not an influencer-I just love make and I can’t part with any of them especially when I purchased them -you did good -blessings
You have a beautiful collection 💕. I’m not letting go of any of my BH until they go bad, I love the holiday palette, I pull it out every fall. (I am declutter in Ms Claus to my no buy group, just waiting till the fall when it’s more fun for the recipient. Would love your views on Moira!
I wish I could have what you're getting rid of. I miss buying and wearing make-up. I became disabled at 45. I now live in a nursing home and we only get 60.00 a month to purchase what we need or want. Please consider a nursing home, the women would love it.
Hey Mandy. I feel a bit uneasy about asking this, but I honestly don’t know the answer! 😁 So, when you declutter your make up, do you ever have a give-a- way for your loyal (🎉😢meeee) Online family? I would be ecstatic to get just ONE eyeshadow palette!! Just wondering. lol xoxo
I just bought a couple of the flower shadows, and everyone seems to be decluttering them... I like them!! Bought my first wetNwild pallet and loved it, also my first ND pallet (I went to get the new release, but it will still be weeks before Australia gets it, so I got Biba) also I'd like to get a new face powder (Laura Mercier..but apparently Saphora Australia doesn't sell it, so I got a Huda translucent, she said its perfumed, but I love the fragrance in it.) At 63, I'm splurging as I finally have time to wear make-up, but sadly, my lids are loosing their elasticity and I've bought some palettes I can't use, as they just need to be rubbed and rubbed to show up, and by then, they are pulled and saggy!!😢 anyone have tips for best brands that go on with one swipe (the wetNwild I just got was about the best ive tried in cheaper and top end so far!!)
The naughty I have 2 backups of I had 3 but gifted one!!it is my favorite palette of all time I have no idea why they dont redo it the formulas and the color story!! Funny thing is I still dont reach for it!!like as if its a pat mcgrath that i think is for special occasions!!what is wrong with our brains doing that!! Lol !with a $20 ..5 year old or whatever palette with2 backups!!😂😂😂😂
I find my hogwarts palette is best if i look at it in quads. I think I use greens and I have brown eyes plus I've moved some of mine around to work better for me. I think they could of done better so on that I agree.
Okay, you have got a channel for make up. But I hope that normal people don't buy so much make up!?! I love make-up, but I have one small palette and normally I cannot even finish it until it expires.
Next time you do a declutter will you open the palettes you are keeping? I would love to see swatches of your favorite colors from each too.

Getting rid of eyeshadow palettes is so hard. 😢 they are so beautiful,
U should make a bin for the "maybe next time" ones and then start using them. Then u will quickly know if u want to keep them. I used to have this many palettes and I just kept decluttering. I know it's not the same since it's not my job, but it felt great. I buy smaller palettes now too. Thanks for showing this. I think u did a great job and made some tough decisions. ❤❤
That chocolate palette is the shades that I’m seeing everywhere for clothes this fall!
I just traveled to Europe and only took the Tartelette in Bloom palette. It was perfect!!
Man, this is in my pile for Poshmark but now I want to pull it back into my collection… hmmm lol
I love the way you store your shadows. So outside the box.
Chuck the Hogwarts! I love Harry Potter too, but those shadows on the eyes? Yech!
Use a magnet and pull out that one shade from the Tropicolor palette that you like and keep it with your Sydney grace singles!
I so need that Star Wars one!!! I love the Mandalorian!!!
I love the CP Mandalorian palette also!

Only wish you would have given those of us who haven’t seen ALL you videos a better look at each pallet.
Very entertaining! I really like your collection and display shelf. I don’t know why, but I’m in such a neutrals mood right now.
Same same
I need to get a bookshelf ladder now bc my too many palettes are in a bottom dresser drawer and I miss them being out and seeing them all every day
“It’s more a stalling tactic…” 😂 At least you admit it. Haha! And yes, the TropiColor “Coconut” shadow is AMAZING.
I feel pretty with a little bit of makeup on like neutrals and sometimes a pop of blue or purple
Your declutter of the Going Coconuts palette from Colourpop made me pull mine out and use it again today. There is a reason I will keep that and That's Taupe in my collection forever. Just both too good to get rid of ever!

Yes agreed - the older I get the less experimental and less makeup I want to wear. I just wear the right colors near my face and don’t even need much makeup.
Maybe this is my problem and why I feel like I just look blah with my browns. I'm not really warm toned like I was told all these years.
Good job! I did the same on Saturday. Felt wonderful. I decided that if I did not use at minimum 50 % of the colors in a palette, out they went.
It’s so hard to let your Precious go. I hoard mine like Dragon’s Gold. I have at least 30 years worth and when I tire of them I store them downstairs. Every once and a while I sort through that stash and look through them and reminisce.
I totally agree about the Colourpop Harry Potter palette!!! I thought the same when it came last year. I bought one for me and each of my three daughters. I love love love the sweet talk palette.
With so many eyeshadow paletteds, how do you choose what to use? I would be so overwhelmed!
I only have three palettes and like ten singles. I would be overwhelmed with so many 😊 I love your eye makeup looks btw ❤
Eyeshadow palettes are my favorite thing to collect, love them SO much! Thanks for the vid!
I have a lot of the same palettes and watching you go through the ones I have that you're decluttering has given me some new ideas for looks with them! Thank you!!
I love all lorac. I'll take yours!!
Do you have the Meraki palette? It’s so basic but you can come up with sooo many different neutral looks! I really love it
The Lusk for Dusk did the same for me. I wanted to love it so much!
I love seeing your collection! It’s so much fun!
Ahhh, you got rid of going coconuts right as the ND I need a nude pallette came out. Just saw a video where the going coconuts is almost a dupe.
To get the most out of Lust for Dusk, you need to start playing with mixing warm and cool tones. It's my favorite owned palette, but I personally adore mixing warm and cool tones.
I thought you had a lot of eyeshadows on the shelf. But you have more in the drawer. LOL I love it!
I love eyeshadow palettes. I have a hard time parting with them. 🌻💛
Honestly I got bored with hoarding makeup and I got rid of a lot of my makeup I just kept the stuff I really like and I feel better like I have more free time and I feel lighter
Thank you for sharing I loved it❤ Natasha is my very favorite eyeshadow. I love her I would love to see you do a eyeshadow tutorial with Natasha
I'm stunned that you don't have the ColourPop Stone Cold Fox pallette. You NEED it!!!
Great job with the decluttering of your eyeshadow palettes, Mandy! I imagine some were hard to pass along, I know I have a hard time decluttering some of mine. You mentioned you haven't been too impressed with the Milani eyeshadows. I recently got the Whiskey Business palette and find I pick it up and use it more and more. A good neutral matte palette that creates a pretty eye look.
I will highlight my shoulders to do any mundane task lol! Walking the dog, mopping the floor, etc ...

I know how you feel about ND palettes! The Zendo was a purchase regret for me, but I just can’t get rid of it.
I love eyeshadow even though I usually don’t wear a lot. These declutters are my favorite! By the way, your arms are buff! Teach me your ways!!
I decluttered my going coconuts, but used some of the shadows in it (magnetic palette) to replace glitters in other palettes, like Off Melrose which is a favorite.
Great job, well done.💜
Sadly, I agree with you on the Colourpop Harry Potter palette. I'm keeping it because the packaging is so good and I love Harry Potter. You can actually get a nice neutral look with the brown tones, both cooler and warmer, and I love the Gillyweed shade!
can't believe you got rid of both boudoir noir and creamsicle! they are both my favorite colourpop eyeshadow palettes!
I understand your love of the BH palettes and wanting the Christmas palette in other packaging. I wish all of their palettes were still available. I really want the Love In London palette!
Hey Mandy, long time viewer of yours. I’m just starting the video, but I want to say TY. I finally got that Nabla cutie you love and it’s incredible. I’m also so excited for the new ND I can’t wait for a sale and I’m getting it!
You did great. It's going to be hard for me to let my Soft & Sultry go, but it's starting to lose it's oomph so I know the end is near.
Shoot! I just found one that I bought a couple years ago and have never used!
You did great!!! Such a hard category to declutter!
We watch declutters to vicariously see the many palettes. And it would be nice if you can open each of them and do a close up. Some even do swatches, those are the best. These type of declutter i just skip on watching
I loved this! Now, I won't feel so guilty making another eyeshadow purchase. 😊
The Tahiti palette works well as an eye palette too if you want something softer... Just fyi. 😊
I FINALLY got my Sydney Grace order today after almost canceling it bc of some issues. It was a big one😅
So. I'm not even sure why you're keeping anything else. Kidding, of course, but HOLY EYESHADOW FROM HEAVEN. I'm stunned. I can't wait to put on my eye makeup tomorrow morning.

You did Great!!! I respect that you only keep one shelf, I would just buy another shelf rather than declutter😂
As far as sydney grace, I just purchased both coffee talk palates which are being discontinued. I purchased both the light and the dark on their sale.
Do you clean up or sanitize decluttered makeup before you give it away? if so, how do you go about it?
Hi Mandy, I want to buy some of the essence eyeshadow palettes, which ones do you have?
Yay! You did it!
I don’t know how you’re declutter palettes I have 3 tall Alex drawers full and I’m not an influencer-I just love make and I can’t part with any of them especially when I purchased them -you did good -blessings
Wow
Harry Potter I agree with you would have been a real opportunity to do something amazing with but it flopped a lot.
Didn’t see you had any Charlotte Tilbury?
Don’t you like her palettes?
Though you did give me a idea of how to store all my palettes.
Thank you 🌹
You have a beautiful collection 💕. I’m not letting go of any of my BH until they go bad, I love the holiday palette, I pull it out every fall. (I am declutter in Ms Claus to my no buy group, just waiting till the fall when it’s more fun for the recipient. Would love your views on Moira!
You did good, love declutter videos.❤
10:55 omg I’m the same!!! I’ll put on makeup ( to stall) if imi have to work out!!! Never heard anyone else say that😅😅😅😅
I am struggling with Enduring Love. It's a bit cool for me but I am working on trying to get some looks that look not so muddy oh me .
Why don't you depot that 1 shade from Tropicolor palette and add it to your singles?
I’m sad about the soft and sultry 😢 that’s how I found your channel
Have a good night world
Hello beautiful MandyLea 😍
I wish I could have what you're getting rid of. I miss buying and wearing make-up. I became disabled at 45. I now live in a nursing home and we only get 60.00 a month to purchase what we need or want. Please consider a nursing home, the women would love it.
Wow, that can be so overwhelming

I felt sad when you let go of Going Coconuts

Agree lust for dusk isn't my favorite either.. I'm not sure why, honestly.
I love the ABH you got rid of 😢
Boudoir noir is so underrated :(
The naughty I have 2 backups of I had 3 but gifted one!!it is my favorite palette of all time I have no idea why they dont redo it the formulas and the color story!! Funny thing is I still dont reach for it!!like as if its a pat mcgrath that i think is for special occasions!!what is wrong with our brains doing that!! Lol
!with a $20 ..5 year old or whatever palette with2 backups!!😂😂😂😂
Can I get your Hourglass Shadows ? 😍
Save your Money on Stone Cold Colorpop. Pigment is awful. Very hard to layer.
I felt the same way. I tossed it in favor of the shadow kiss palette from alter ego. I was really disappointed in the formula.
I find my hogwarts palette is best if i look at it in quads. I think I use greens and I have brown eyes plus I've moved some of mine around to work better for me. I think they could of done better so on that I agree.
Is there a way to DM you? I’d love to write a lot, but not on public forum. I’d appreciate it so much. Thank you!
Okay, you have got a channel for make up. But I hope that normal people don't buy so much make up!?! I love make-up, but I have one small palette and normally I cannot even finish it until it expires.
🤍🤍🤍
I would Love to Know which ones you would Really Keep if you Didnt have a TH-cam Channel.
My notifications are on. Why am I not getting you?
You can not get coffee talk anymore 😢
SheGlam recently launched a new collab with Harry Potter. It looks promising. I would be interested in your thoughts.
I love you Mandy you make me laugh every time.
