Hello and welcome back to our blog! I want to thank all of you guys for reading and I hope I help inspire you all to clean out your own collections for the new year. I felt very cluttered and didn’t have any room to put any of my amazing Christmas palettes or new beauty items away so I decided it was time for a clean out.
I’ll show you guys how I organize soon after I figure out what I am doing!
Here is a before picture: (this is a crowded nightmare)
As you can see everything is spilling out of its rightful boxes! (Also you can see my feet, I’m sorry I forgot to crop out my mismatched socks and the random mess on the right)
Face makeup:

Passing along:

Eyeshadow:

Passing along:
I was on the fence with the colormates palette because although I never use it and it’s so old, it’s incredibly pigmented and I enjoy it when I do use it, so I’m just going to keep it and try to use it more.
Blush and highlight:

Passing along:
Passing along:

Mascara:
Holy sh*t I own way too many! For some reason I can’t ever get rid of mascara!
Passing along:

Eyeliners:
Again I own far too many of these! But I simply can’t part with eyeliner!
Passing along:Β

In summary I’m passing along all of these:
Then everything goes into a LAST CHANCE BAG. In case I randomly decide to reach for anything I earlier decided to throw away. If I don’t use a product and it stays here for more than a month, I chuck it.Β This is an easy way to part with things if you sort of hoard items.
That’s all I have for you guys today! I’m glad to be sharing with you guys that for the month of January we will be able to upload three days a week, once on Saturday in addition to the Monday and Thursday. See you all very very soon and I hope you all enjoyed. If you began to enjoy this post at any moment then please hit the like button and follow for more!

Wow so many mascaras and eyeliners! It’s a good idea to unload some of them. Did you know? – mascaras and eyeliners supposedly expire after 6 months or so. I need to unload some too.

Yeah I have too many for someone with only two eyes! It’s crazy they expire so fast, I can never throw them out on time!

I have just done my annual clear out too. That Stila Blush looks likes such a pretty colour. I mainly got rid of mascaras and eyeliners XD

You have a ton of mascara!!!! Just wondering, do they each have a different purpose? Like lengthening, adding volume, etc.

Most of them have a different purpose, I use two everyday, one lengthening and one volumizing so I sort of just mix and match! Thanks for commenting π
