When was the last time you went through your your products (to organize/declutter)?

When was the last time you went through your your products (to organize/declutter)?

It’s been two months or so since I did a big organization/clean-out. It was shortly after formally announcing I was going to step back and work a little less on the blog, and it encouraged me to really start to tackle my archives!

Do you keep original packaging? (Like boxes, sleeves, etc.)

Do you keep original packaging? (Like boxes, sleeves, etc.)

It’s very seldom that I do, otherwise I would need even more space than my makeup takes up, lol! I might keep particularly interesting press kits or boxes for a couple of months on display and then eventually recycle.

What's your advice to get out of makeup rut?

What's your advice to get out of makeup rut?

I will be eagerly listening, because this is probably the longest and worst makeup rut I’ve ever found myself in. I opted to clean and reorganize the garage over playing with makeup last weekend, LOL!

What kind of products or brands are you NOT willing to pay more for?

What kind of products or brands are you NOT willing to pay more for?

I tend to steer away from very high-priced cleansers and SPF, as cleansers don’t stay on the skin long and go down the drain quickly, while I want to make sure I feel comfortable using as much SPF as actually needed vs. the feeling of rationing because the product is so expensive.

What kind of products or brands are you willing to pay more for?

I’m willing to pay more for most products/brands in general – like I’m not that price sensitive, but I definitely prefer more mid-end to low high-end price points so the quality has to be there if I’m paying more.

How does product size impact your purchasing decisions?

How does product size impact your purchasing decisions?

For makeup, it doesn’t typically influence the decision either way. For skincare/hair care, I will go for a larger product that has a better value if it’s something I know I’ll actually use up!

What's the first thing you do with a new purchase?

What's the first thing you do with a new purchase?

For makeup, I organize and determine what order I expect to photo/swatch and review. Then, I’ll move it into the photo studio in preparation for photos!
