THIS IS SO TRUE!!!! Need to print this out and refer to it oftern. Just broke my no buy due to the sephora VIB clutch ... today is another day
So true and so useful. Thank you so much.
I was going to get the refillable palette and a bunch of shadows to fill it, but then I thought about how many eyeshadows I have...nope not necessary at all.
Don't do it! If it makes you feel any better - all the liners have been on sale on Beauty Crunch for at least a month, and are much cheaper there too - four packs for $10....So...don't get them on Haute Look, because they're cheaper some place else. And don't get them (now) at Beauty Crunch either, because it seems like they have a lot of them and won't run out any time soon either....
Do you really need them?? And I mean, you probably have lots of similar stuff at home you could use instead of spending money.

Nope, you are correct. That is NOT saving any money. The UD naked foundation is pretty wonderful though...but foundation is one of the few make up items I don't hoard and always finish before buying another....unless I don't like the product. Like the toofaced brush foundation thing I bought...I should just throw it out.
I still struggle with not buying stuff, but getting past the 'this is such a good deal' roadblock was the toughest. The fact that I didn't buy that stuff last night revealed that I am much better, but the fact that I had it in my cart and was seriously considering buying stuff I really don't need showed me that I am still not totally where I need to be. I was considering calling it the end of my no-buy because I'm about to hit 2 months, but I don't feel like I'm ready yet. And so it continues...
You are doing really amazing! I have been doing terrible this month and even last. I don't know what it is. I know I don't need ANY more make up at all, yet this week I've made about $300 worth of make up purchases. I'm not being entirely honest with myself, and I really need to get down to the root of the problem, because its not just make up that I buy.
Do you find yourself just overshopping in general? I've been through phases, since turning 18 and trying to be an "independent and grown woman" lol..I moved out the day after I turned 18 and ended up dropping out of college to pay off my debts from credit cards... Lord, first it was paying out the butt to furnish my new place with anything and everything I could get my hands on..then it was clothes, shoes, whatever else...now make up lol..and I'm 27 now! I've learned to window shop again, but I'm struggling with the world of beauty products...sighs...
Yeah, its an in general thing. Clothes, make up, housewares, food, anything and everything. I don't know why, and I really don't get ANYTHING out of it. I definitely need to find the root of the problem and deal with that or its never going to stop.
Are you getting caught up in the "oo, it's new and shiny" feeling? I used to be that way..still am sometimes..and sales, lordy, don't get me started. I learned to keep tags on everything I'd buy and leave it in a pile, especially after a ridiculous spree. If I didn't rip off the tags and actually use the products/items/purchases within a week, I'd return them. I still find myself going through buyer's remorse every now and then, so thank goodness for great return policies!
