I admire your self discipline and simplicity is always a good thing! Saving money is so important and you seem to have a good head on your shoulders because it is so easy to get caught up in purchasing the latest items. Marketing and "influencers" can make people consume much more than they actually need and that is their goal (getting you to spend and making you feel like you need what they are promoting). Great vlog!
I had a hysterectomy in December 2022 due to horrible fibroids, which caused me to hemmorhage really bad during each time of the month. When I tell you that has not only cut the costs of pads, but of toilet tissue. I used to go thru so much tissue from the heavy bleeding and I had to urinate like every hour because of the pressure of my huge uterus and fibroids on my bladder. I just thought of that because I feel I can go so long without buying tissue now--and pads. Women should get a monthly stipend for these things. Lol
Yes feminine hygiene products should be financed at least partly by gov. Maybe refuced taxes or anything that would minimize the price. It is not a whim, you have to get something for those days, even if a silicone cup. In the UK contraception is free but not pads, panty liners etc.
I LOVE my bidet, definitely a money saver. Replacing TP with reusable bidet cloths (aka family cloth, etc) cuts costs completely and makes it even more sustainable if you wanna look into that!
Same with my skin! Less is more I have 4 steps and that is it! I do wear make-up from time to time but I wfh so I only do make-up when I am going out with friends and less make-up has been helping my skin so much!
as a woman the no make up hit hard bc im someone who has never bothered with it, and just recently just got into skin care. in the morning i just cant be bothered to wake up earlier to have extra time for make up and would rather use the time to sleep more. but recently, ive been more or less swayed to buy some bc of some ppl telling me that i should know and do make up. that fed my insecurity so i gave in and bought some although just the basic stuff, theyre still pretty costly. now bc of your vid im def going to think twice before buying make up and skin care to save more.
I stopped buying clothes because i found out I'm pregnant! Ive also stopped all my skincare except moisturizer and sunscreen. And I'm comfortable. I did a wardrobe clean out and i feel so good. I'm also not going to go crazy on baby stuff. Just going to focus on my mental and physical health lol. I have been spending more on fruits, nuts and nutrition but not fast food. I know this might change based on my cravings but I'll listen to my body not my mind about food.
Kyra same with my face I noticed it if I put too much products I have so much break outs. Now I just have cleanser and toner and moisturizer sometimes. Anyway, I could tell you lost weight. Good job!
Kyra!!! I have definitely noticed your face looks slimmer now that your sodium intake has decreased! Kudos to you girl! ❤ you look beautiful. And I agree, once I stopped eating processed food as often, my snacking decreased.
Never late since u began uploading these kind of videos again! Im so glad you’re back at uploading minimalist content because I missed it so much. I learned so much from you since I subscribed to your channel 3 years ago. Happy holidays to your little family, Kyra! Sml for you & Milo ❤️
You are a natural beauty and I would say if you can look that good without makeup go for it! Not to mention the plus side of putting that makeup money into your saving account. That’s a win win! Love your videos!
You have a very nice evenly colored skin without any dark circles etc. So makeup is definitely just a voluntary choice. I don’t wear makeup most of the time too BUT I do admit that the way my face looks in terms of eye area or just some imperfections here and there would suggest I should wear a makeup to just feel prettier when I randomly catch my reflection in the mirror.
Thank you for saying that about the leggings. I always feel like I “need” different ones for different purposes, but it just wastes my time with laundry and decision making, let alone the cost.
Thank you so much for uploading this video. I needed the reminder, especially the skin care and overconsuming on different products. My goal is to use what I have and then moving forward only purchase what I need. Also, would like to see a video of your skincare journey. Keep up the great videos Kyra. ❤🎉
I agree with the whole food vs. processed food. If you think of food like news for your body's molecular intelligence (everything from your immune system to endocrine system) the whole foods are like a primary news source. The more food gets processed the more bias or degradation of the information it becomes, so candy and chips is like tabloids and clickbait for your body, same as using social nedia as your only news source for your mind. Fast food is very similar to fast-media. Same with fast fashion, not great for the planet or our health. Some processing like cooking, steaming and stewing can make food more bioavailable though, and i think of this like a news anchor from a reputable source telling people about catastrophic events instead of everything being a live raw feed that might be triggering or difficult to understand, people can internalize it easier, which is similar to how cooking makes vegetables and meat easier to digest by deactivating a plant's defensive irritants or killing germsband worms in meats. But things like added sugar and salt are kind of like adding political bias to the food. Its like an op-ed. You might get your worldview affirmed, but you might miss out on necessary information or nutrients.
I feel like they use to back in the day but now some of the thrift store prices are crazy😩. You can get a used shirt for $17 beyond insane. I still remember $1 Tuesdays back in 2014.

He’s fine, that’s what cats do most of the day especially when they get older. As long as he’s beside me he’s happy. Also keep in mind that RUclips videos are edited before publishing so the times he did move they were probably edited out.
i personally would like if some effort was put into your appearance even though you are beautiful naturally. 💕 as a viewer i enjoy seeing a little makeup and hair done , it makes me want to watch the video for longer.
Thank you for sharing your perspective. While I appreciate feedback, my content is primarily focused on providing helpful and engaging information rather than my appearance. It's important to me to be authentic, and currently, I'm navigating challenges with weight gain and persistent acne, making it a sensitive topic for me. I hope you can understand and continue to find value in the ACTUAL content and not worry about my looks.
I'm going for a low-buy to no-buy next year and these kinds of videos always amp me up. I will probably have to replace a few things and want to do the occasional nice thing for my rosacea, but also just want to get the most out of paycheck. Great points that I'm sure I can replicate in my German town, inflation is tough lol.

Thanks Kyra for the video, I can relate to a lot of what you said. ❤❤❤❤ 🐈
You have natural beauty glowing skin
I think you will benefit from Bright light eating it’s amazing. No process food, no sugar, no snacks and weight your food. Indiana
Thank you for the inspiration!
Wash your face 2x mo. with baking soda
I only buy socks, underware.
They have some great thrift stores in Boston

We def don’t mind a nice bare face at all 🥰🥰
Love these ideas! Also, I can see you are losing weight Kyra. You look great at any weight though!
THANK YOU SO MUCH Daina 🥹 I’ve been trying so hard to loose the 60 pounds I have gained over the past 3 years. Your comment made my night!!
