Makeup Declutter Pt 2 (For Real)

 Hey Y'all!

Today I'll share my collection & declutter, this doesn't include what's on the everyday shelf, or the fourth Dose of Colors Nude Lip (from the set) that's in my bag currently. I also didn't count how many items I had this time, but I did have a goal for decluttering in each category (spoiler: it wasn't met every time).

Just as a reminder:

Declutter in July~

First I started with my face drawer, followed by eyeshadow palettes, and finishing up with lips.

*The declutter goal is dependent on how much product I am starting with in any given category.

Declutter Goal~ 5

Actual~ 5

Sis has claimed the Benefit Blush since it was on the chopping block last time. The porefessional and Ulta mascara were trashed.

Declutter Goal~ 3

Actual~ 2

The Ulta palette I loved, and have hit pan on two of the nude shades, but the rest were starting to look "off" so it got tossed.

The L.A. Colors just wasn't fantastic, and I can't keep them all.

Two of these were passed to me from Sis (the UD, and the Revolution Nudes) both were ok. I'll pass the UD to Mom and see if she has better luck with it, though she tends to wear cooler colors.

I liked the Lorac Pro when I got it, but I never reach for it anymore, my collection has grown a lot since then. The other Lorac palette is just a bit meh, so why keep holding on to it?

I really went back and forth with the BH Cosmetics  Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, so we'll see if it makes the next declutter.

Lips~

All Colors!

Purple:

During (swatches)~

I realize swatching on paper isn't the best, but last time I did hand swatches and that takes a lot more time, and clean up.

After~

Declutter Goal~ 2

Actual~ 4

All decluttered lip products got trashed.

Balms not swatched, they're clear/heat activated color.

Declutter Goal~ Anything "Off"

Actual~ 0

Nothing needed tossed here.

My swatch paper. I definitely have far more nudes than anything else!

 

The Lip Products all put back:

Over all I'm pretty happy with how I did.

My goal was to declutter a total of  29, and I actually decluttered 26 items. So I didn't meet goal, but I came close. I could have probably cut more, but I'm happy with where it stands now.

Have a great day,

Craftin' Wife
