  • There are 10 beauty things I no longer buy after having been an avid beauty shopper and blogger with a large collection. My collection of beauty and makeup items includes predominantly PR samples and things I bought before 2018: deoderant, nail polish, makeup, skincare etc.
    I've fallen off a lot of PR lists, except skincare (girl, that stuff is expensive). Fortunately, PR these days companies email bloggers to ask if they are interested in testing particular products. i.e. instead of receiving surprise packages, they receive beauty products they would actually like to review on their platforms.

    I want to see the sugar wax video because I also use the epilator, want to hear your experience!

      I definitely won't be doing a fully decked sugaring tutorial because abetweene's tutorials are literally expert level. I'm still getting the hang of it. I tend to sugar first and epilate the stragglers left. So far, it hurts less and there's less chance of hair breakage. I'm growing out the pits to do this in a few weeks haha!

    You're looking uber glowy and this makeup is a whole vibe 😍
    I'm with you on nail polish, like I do gel nails at home always now, and I only wear nude, pink or white nail polish. So 3 gel nail polishes is where it's at!
    Also with you on skincare, I only buy when it's finish, I'm done with hoarding them! 😩
    I stopped buying makeup wipes as well...👀
    This was such a great video! 💖

      In a lot of ways, it's easy to say I won't buy these things because I have them now, but especially makeup wipes. I hardly use them anyway, although they are a God send when you do lip swatch videos (which I don't do too often anyway). It's great that you've narrowed down polishes, I wish I weren't so into them back in the day. I liked EVERY colour. lol Thanks for the compliment and stopping by ;)

      Alexa Likes honetsly I really was into nail polishes in my first year of uni... I think it was that time too.. Nail art was "THE THING" so I got them all (pokemon style 😂) but once I started getting my nails done at the salon (gel, extensions etc), I literally stopped using them anf gave a whole bunch away!

    About hair care, I basically just use shampoo, conditioner and sometimes leavein and mascara. There was a time that I believed I had to buy and use different hair products to take care of my hair and... I just don’t. My hair is just fine with the basics.

      Great tip! Exactly, once you find something that works for you, stick to it until you decide to switch up style, color etc. I feel like my hair is healthier now that I use less 🙇
