I just found you! And I so appreciate this kind of video and you are so sweet and supportive. I don’t really keep a budget, but I do keep track of all of my purchases in a spreadsheet so I can look back and find that really helpful. I truly went into this year saying that I was going on a low buy, and that has not gone well because I have been stressed and depressed and I use polish as a coping mechanism. But I can say I have spent $300 less than Jan-July 2023, so small victories haha.
I like this concept for videos! I appreciate how a lot of your purchases were ones you'd been dreaming of for awhile, and frugally shopping destashes. Some of my favorite nail polish purchases were huge mystery indie destash boxes.
👋👋💖this video is awesome and so helpful. I'm really glad you get paid for swatching. Nail polish collecting is a big hobby for me and is expensive. I've narrowed down to Holo Taco nail polishes and Aengland polishes. And of course main stream, tkmaxx etc. You got some great well worth purchases. Thank you for sharing.
You have pretty picks! I recently came to the realization that I need to put myself on a budget when it comes to polish. Well, maybe I knew it sooner, but I feel like I've recently come across several videos where people are taking personal inventory so it sort of confirms that I probably need to do the same. Those Voyage polishes are so gorgeous! I'd never heard of them before. And if you are happy with your purchases, good for you! I feel the same way. I used to feel guilty, but had to ask myself, why? I just want to make sure I'm being responsible and having fun! Enjoy! 😀
This was super helpful. I got back into polish almost 3 years ago, and this year I’ve gone a bit nuts with indie brands and PPU. This month has been my worst in polish spending in my life. I’m hitting the breaks, hopefully, next month since I have a budget I don’t want to go over for the year. To not exceed it now, I will need to pull back A LOT. I have sooo many untrieds in my collection now that my plan is to shop my stash. I’d be crazy not to, because I invested in so many amazing polishes this year. Love the Nicole Math (TM) 😂
I loooove this video so much! Theres so much live & intentional buying thats goes into your purchases. I also love that you purchase from pepple that fill your cup as well!!
Whoa whoa whoa, what happened to Sinful? Stg I just saw Sinful in its usual place at my Walgreens like a week ago. Are they seriously going away AGAIN? They already did this to me in the late 90’s/early 00’s and I was sad for YEARS. 😭
If you check out their last post on IG it was from 2022. The comments are mainly people missing the brand 🥲 But I did get a message from someone saying they'll be offloading their sinful colors soon 🥳 Hopefully I can get some at a decent price.

Yes! Celebrate the small victories! You should feel proud. You deserve that feeling. Focus on it and thrive. 💕

I need to destash more. A mystery box might be right up my alley.

Thank you. I feel like focusing on a few brands REALLY helps. There are too many brands out there and way too many pretty polishes lol.
Love that you are doing videos now, and loving the Nicole Math 🤣
I tease her all the time until it suits me 😅
It's so much fun seeing your collection! Thanks for sharing 😀
Thank for watching!
Wow, I had not heard of most of these brands. Thank you for sharing this video with us 😃. I love seeing what other people have in their collection!
I love supporting smaller brands but I'm sure there are brands I haven't hear of too 😆 so many to choose from!

Thank you. Jellies are my favorite! So glad I got the ones I did for nail art purposes. They've been so fun to work with so far.
I loooove this video so much! Theres so much live & intentional buying thats goes into your purchases. I also love that you purchase from pepple that fill your cup as well!!
Thank you! I try to be intentional as possible when purchasing. It's worked so far. 💜
its so sweet of the one brand to donate to palestine, it makes me happier to buy!
Yes it is! ❤
PPU was my gateway drug!
Isn't it everyone's? 😂😭

1:34 Why do I feel like I’m being called out? 🤔 My math makes sense though 🤷🏾♀️
The Nicole Math is redeeming in the end 😄
I just call it math.
You are the low buy Queen, and I bow to your powers of elimination! ❤
