Body Care

This category is pretty bad! And I'm not even showing what I have in my shower. I have about 11 sets of scents. About 4 body sprays, 2 body lotions, and 3 hand lotions. All this is my slowest moving products because of multiple factors, most of the time I only have the mental capacity (or the hot water) to take a bare minimum shower. I don't really have a plan for all of it. It's a little overwhelming. I did really well last year of not buying anything new, but my mom got me a new set for Christmas, and then I just bought some stuff from that new Daise brand from Ulta haha. I don't think there's some fun way to get through these like there is for makeup, I just need to lock in.

Makeup Overview

I really worked on my makeup collection last year and now it all fits into my caboodle! It also helps that I don't really use foundation or concealer, but I do plan on investing in some high end kind this year.

Eye Products

I have two mascaras, three eyeliners, one stick shadow, one brow gel, one lash glue, one eye primer and a random little heart stamp I got in a monster high doll haha. I have been trying to use both mascaras when doing my makeup. (Too Faced for top lashes, Isehan for my lower lashes.) But hopefully since I bought a mini, I can get through it in a decent amount of time. I don't even wear eyeliner, but when I do, it's my little gel pot, so I could honestly get rid of the other two. I don't even know why I bought that stick shadow. I saw a funky color and grabbed it. I do want to at least try it out though. I don't wear fake lashes either? Everything else I use every time I do makeup! Heart stamp is just there.

Lip Products

I feel like this is everyone's biggest problem. I have seven lip balms, one stain, six glosses, two lipsticks, and two liners. I have a lip balm in almost every room of my apartment and in my bag, so they do get used up in a timely manner. Look at my Peely one, he's almost gone! I use the stain a good amount. I do not wear gloss on the daily, especially glitter gloss, and I have three of those! I thought the cuddle team leader one would be cute, but it's the same shade as my lips already so there's almost no difference. I don't use lipsticks that much, I would rather use the stain I have, but I like the colors. I could probably get rid of the lighter one. I went on a lip combo journey and absolutely hated it so now I just have two random lip liners.

Eye Shadows and Pallets

I have five pallets, one super shock shadow that I think is dried out and then in the magnetic pallet is a depotted Lorac pallet (small pans) and a giant Morphe pallet and then one little random pan from Sally's. The Lorac pallet had sixteen pans and I kept six. The Morphe pallet had thirty pans and I kept twelve. I've actually hit pan on one of those shades! I got rid of a lot of colorful shades, but I wanted to keep my ProFusion pallets when I did want to use fun colors. I know they're not everyday pallets, but I'm ok with keeping them. My little nine pan Cuddle Team Leader pallet is really good for everyday. My eyes don't really like drugstore makeup, but this pallet works for me! I kept my ColourPop Blowin' Smoke pallet for darker looks. I dropped this pallet a while back and I'm just now noticing I put some of the pans in the wrong place haha. I just bought the Appley In Love pallet from Too Faced. It was 50% off and I wanted as least one high end pallet I can use for everyday. I want it to be my main pallet at the end of all this.

Face Powders

I don't have that many! My pressed powder is almost out! I do have two highlighters, but I use both of them every time I put on makeup. I use the Covergirl all over where needed and then I use the WnW for just my nose. But recently I have been using a shade from the depotted Lorac pallet for my nose highlight to try to use it up. It is a lot smaller than the giant WnW highlighter.
