    I'm with you!!!! 2025 - No new bags, No new shoes, No new perfumes and No new skincare/makeup - Trying to see how much money I can save for future travels.

      I’m with you too! I have way too much! My word of the year is CONSUMPTION. I’ve built up quite a collection in all things all areas of my life. So I would like the consume the products/things I already have before buying a new one or a back stocking when it sales. Sales/ markdowns are my kryptonite. 😅

      i mean you can buy skincare to replace your finished items right? I m trying to do the same... but says to myself skincare/make up replacement only.

    The struggle is real Michele...I too have an abundance of so many things, like shoes, designer handbags, makeup, clothes, etc... but with the recent Malibu and Pacific Palisades fires ( I reside in Santa Barbara) it has helped me to purge my closet with the intention and to remind myself of the many blessings I already have in my life. I agree that it's very difficult to give up purchasing the things that bring you joy. I attempt to do a no buy January each year and now with the recent current events, I plan to donate the funds to the California Firefighters Association. Thank you for sharing your struggles with us, like most of your viewers, we are grateful for your honesty and humility.

    Fortunately for me, money constraints keep my “collecting habits” under control. But I also notice I just feel a lot better when I have less stuff. Some people really just enjoy their things - they enjoy a different fragrance every day, a different foundation depending on their mood, a different self care routine, etc. And that’s awesome…nothing at all wrong with it. In fact, I enjoy it vicariously. But I’ve learned that at heart I’m a minimalist. I have a closet full of clothes, yet I wear the same dozen outfits for 6 months of the year. I have a lot of skincare and makeup collected over the years, yet I wear the same lip color every single day. So, 2025 for me will be an extension of 2024 - embracing my “true self.” The bigger problem is getting rid of things…makes me feel really bad unless I can sell/give away to someone who wants them. But nobody wants even gently used or unused things…they want to buy new, or they only want what influencers are talking about.

  • @xsephiroth

    I'm doing a no-buy on ALL skincare and makeup asides from if I run out of anything! I've accumulated a lot of stuff because I tend to move onto something new before I finish the things I have. No more of that!! I'm going to be challenging myself to use the products I have to follow makeup tutorials and try to mix my existing eyeshadow shades, blushes, lip products, and foundations to customize new shades or finishes I want.

I’m holding strong Michele. 😂That said I definitely don’t want to purchase any more cream blush or lipsticks. I need to use what I have!😊 Recognizing your reddish-orange lipsticks issue is the first step to recovery! 😅

    I’m with you! Last year I went on a makeup low/ no buys in the categories of mascara, foundation , concealer, and setting spray. I was successful! As a result I used up 2 foundations and purchased one. I purchased one concealer and one setting spray. The concealer was a fail. The setting spray was needed as a result of using up the ones I had. No mascara! My only fail was concealer. I’ll continue my journey it’s working!

      @jaxb.8351 9 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Oh yes skin care is a good one! When it comes to the clothing bit I really think if I have something that serves that purpose and if so does it need replacing and am I willing to get rid of it to make space for new things or if I’m still happy with that piece. Usually the answer is that I don’t want to get rid of what I have. Since I have limited space I have to be really mindful bc things can look cluttered very quickly.

    • @Itsmysoapbox
      @Itsmysoapbox 9 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @ oh I would absolutely replace items. I have a wishlist and will go and buy once I’m sure it’s a „want“ and not just the impulse. However, I have so many clothes, jewellery, shoes etc. yet I still wear the same 10 things on rotation. That‘s also something I would like to do this year, „shop“ my closet and wear more of my stuff. I realized that I love the process of shopping/buying more than wearing the purchased items which is somewhat concerning to me

This is such a gentle reminder to revise this intention for myself in 2025. Thanks!

    After taking every sweater out of my cedar closet and getting rid of 50, plus sweatshirts, I will not buy any in 2025. It was out of hand. So many had tags or were worn once. I couldn't wear them all if I tried. At least half, I have no clue as to why I got them, or don't even remember purchasing them. I'm embarrassed. 🤦‍♀️

    When I heard no more red/orange lipstick...I knew this was going to be a challenge! I will send good vibes. I am on no particular no buy- as I have been using up, and I am going to be buying as I run out. I have always enjoyed your perfume collection and been astounded, thinking how can she wear all of them? They do have a shelf life, but...if stored out of sun, heat in a cool dark dry place they can last up to 10 yrs, especially heavier note scents. Oils, almost indefinitely. I wish you success on the no buy items, and take a friend with you if you think you'll be going by sunglasses... 😆 Have a great day Michele!

    As far as notebooks, I really use them, and have also bought a lot in the past. I have switched to Hermes Ulysse mm leather covers and lined refills, which last forever, and that’s all I buy. I used to keep my entire lipstick collection in my bag, and lost it on vacation when apparently it rolled out of my tote, which was painful, but also a chance to begin again in a minimalist way. I now have only 5 or 6, and it’s fine. They all fit in any of my mini bags. I’m doing a low buy year. I’m buying just one significant piece of clothing or shoes. I will replace important items that wear out that I can’t replace with something I already own.

I finally decided to curate my perfumes and only buy large bottles of ones I don't already have with similar DNA's of. If I do find one I really want that may be similar I make sure to remove one I rarely or never use. Just because I like/love but never/rarely use means it needs to go. I don't have enough days in the year to wear what I have. The overconsumption is real and needs to stop...lol!

    Hi Michele. Let’s be honest - we could all do without buying ANYTHING unnecessary for like a whole year. Anything at all. But man, does it feel good to treat oneself sometimes for all the hard work and what not:)
    However, my angle is this:
    I really do not appreciate luxury brands raising prices all-the-time-way-too-often. If all of us consumers all over the world would just get what’s really necessary (like replacement skincare, lip balm, concealer - only replacement)- that would slow down the hunt for everything and everything new they put out there and their 4-times annual price increases, or am I daydreaming?..
    I would have loved to see some reasonable and responsible consumption and purchasing habits. May be that would improve things pricing and production and environmental consciousness wise… 💫✨

And the worst is I can’t throw away the old or empty beautiful bottle! I’m single with small hairy chihuahua and we are fine in this boat! 😅 … much love xo

      I love mugs but will only buy new ones when I really need it. It’s hard but I have a small kitchen so I don’t have enough space for all the drink wear I would love to buy. And mugs are so bulky. But there are sooo many pretty ones.

    Great video. I had already put no new pink/nude lipstick on my list because I have so many, actually so many lipsticks, balms, and glosses.

    The thing this year is no more foundations other than my Dior. I have so many less expensive that I tolerate or “make” them work .why? So using what I got and sticking with what works for me. 😊

    Yes! not buying any skincare except Vit C & retinol(only when I use up what I have) let’s do it!

    Ugh!! I know I should say sneakers , but I just love them so! Definitely agree with the comment above about no more blind buying fragrances. That always leads to buyers remorse for me.

    I'm going to try to not purchase blushes this year. Overall I have makeup to last years. I am trying to diligently work on using up what I have. I finally know the core makeup brands I like so I stick to my favorites.

    Thanks you, Michele! This has inspired me to write my own OH HELL NO! List for 2025. That said, do you think you could do a video where you tell us how to research fragrance? What do you look for, what criteria are you using, etc? I think it'd be super helpful. Love to Miss B!

    I love this video! This year I will NOT buy-- eyeshadow palettes, bronzers, loose powders, or eyebrow products. I also have a strict one in one out policy for other beauty products

    Hello Michele, I totally understand your love of parfumes and candles, as I also love the whole experience of buying a niche fragrance and the artistic effort that it takes to create them. Instead of going in a "no buy", I decided to be very intentional with my fragrance purchases and when I find one that is a love, I depart with three existing ones. I have found this process to very liberating as I not only have less clutter, but also know I have shared with others the love of fragrance. I love candles too and invariably buy a whole bunch during Christmas time. I give my extra candles to my friends or relatives as house gifts. Keep up the good work in 2025!

    Love this. I know what you mean about perfume. I am vowing to stop buying expensive lip balms. I am a total sucker for them!!!

  • @KuwaitiHabibi

    Michele, I know you said you will stop buying perfumes and candles but I reeeeaally want you to try Roja Dove’s fragrances. Especially in the Parfum iteration, the EDPs don’t last as long. Even though some of them are powdery, which I know you dislike, some are just exquisite!!
    Also! Please try to smell Sisley’s Eau de Campagne candle . It’s SO GOOD. The fragrance Eau de Campagne is a classic Chypre fragrance. Very fresh and dry. And the candle as well is fantastic! 🩶💚🩶

    The mug struggle is real .. lol. I was just in Home Goods "looking" and thought - No. Put that down! LoL (but it was a really cute Winnie the Poo mug ~ which I didn't buy).

    Not buying high heel shoes. Already have an entire closet dedicated to shoe storage. Included on my list are hair products. I could open my own salon with the number of shampoo bottles I own!😂

    I love perfumes and colognes, toooo! And, my shelf is a mess. So sad but true. You have a tough list of no-buys for a couple of things... things you love. I am not buying any more notebooks, journals and correspondence cards/stationery. Oh my, do I have a lot of stationery, and who writes and uses snail mail anymore? Me, but not as much as I used to. How will I keep accountable? I have mental pictures in my head of my stationery piles and my fragrance sprawl!

    Regarding fragrances, frankly I would go through the ones i have, see which ones are too old, toss them, those that arent too old but Ive come to realize I dont like or use as much and sell those (people love buying partials, helps offset how expense) and then use that to replenish with new smells!

  • @iiacarter3958

    Oh no! I’m sad you said no to loose powders! Mainly because I heard Celine is launching theirs this year and was hoping for a review 😂

    As for Diptyque candles. My little “stash” has become a little much.

    I hope you know and have for review the new YSL loose powder (they are in a very familiar square container).
    Am totally with you on mugs, matte foundations, high heels, sweatshirts, candles, notebooks (and pens!)
