Make-Up Declutter 2020

Last month I decided to do another declutter of my cosmetics collection, the last one I did was in 2017. I managed to purge a lot more products, mainly palettes and some of the items kept surviving my previous declutters, but their luck finally ran out this time! Here is what I got rid of this time:-

BRUSHES & TOOLS

False Lash Applicator - 1
Pencil Sharpener - 1

That is a total of 32 brushes & tools. The brands of products I got rid of are: - Tweezerman, Urban Decay, brushworks, Real Techniques, Style Studio, Maybelline, LUXIE, Morphe, ZOEVA, elf Cosmetics, HUDA BEAUTY, Benefit and Fleur De Force.

FRAGRANCE

That is a total of 2 fragrances. The brands of products I got rid of are: - Juicy Couture and KIERIN NYC.

NAILS
Nail Polishes - 1
Nail Care Products - 1
False Nails - 1

That is a total of 3 nail products. The brands of products I got rid of are: - Nails Inc and Elegant Touch.

Overall, I managed to purge 200 items from my collection! I give away the products to family/friends and sell anything that is new or in good condition. If any items are gifted to me through PR, I would donate to family/friends or a charity that accepts cosmetics. I have previously tried blog sales, but they don’t work in my experience. I have now managed not to subscribe to a subscription box for about a year now, so it is likely to be another couple of years before I do a declutter again!

LOOKFANTASTIC BEAUTY BOX #6 - October 2020

I was hoping to have posted about this last Thursday, but it took a while for my box to arrive. There was an issue with some people’s subscriptions and it mean’t some orders were not generated for existing subscribers. The issue was corrected and I have now received my box. Last month’s box was the Birthday Edition and this month we have the Retreat Edition with an indigo themed box. The six items inside the box should be worth over £58.00 altogether! Here is what I received this month:- GLOV Hair Wrap | £14.99 | This hair towel is made of from microfibres, which means it is gentler for your hair. I use a hair wrap towel every time I wash my hair, so this will come in very handy. I usually prefer darker colour towels as white ones look grubby after a while. | Full Size - £14.99 | ECOOKING Overnight Foot Cream | 30ml - £8.10 | This foot cream is supposed to remove dead skin as well as moisturise. It works best overnight and it is recommend that you wear socks over the cr...

Becca's Babble's #4: My Current Favourite Songs

Photo: TheDJ.co.uk I thought I would post about something different today, something not beauty related. I have found myself listening to more music lately, seeing as though I have more time on my hands whilst the UK is on a sort of lockdown and I cannot go to work. By listening to more music, I mean more of the songs I have downloaded. I don’t really get to hear much new music as I do not listen to the radio or watch music channels on the TV. I am also kind of old school with music. I actually download the songs onto my PC instead of using a music streaming service. I just personally find it easier; I can then copy the songs to my phone. Streaming sites tend to delete their content after a while, but if you have the songs downloaded, you can never lose them until you delete them. I do subscribe to Amazon Music for my Echo Dot though, but I do find it incredibly frustrating when Alexa doesn’t understand what I want her to play, even though I am saying it in plain English!! Anyway...

Empties #1 - September 2012

I am going to share with you some products that I have used up over a period of time and tell you a bit about them and whether I liked them and whether I will re-purchase them or not. These were not used up in one month, but over several, but I’ll try and do monthly ones. In no particular order..... bliss Blood Orange + White Pepper Body Butter – 50ml I received this in a glossybox and it is the 50ml travel size and it smells really lovely. I don’t like orange scents, but this smelt really nice. It is paraben free and it really makes your body feel moisturised and the scent makes you feel clean. I used it on my arms and legs mostly. I really liked using this product, but I wouldn’t re-purchase it because I have three full size Soap & Glory body butters to use up and my favourite is Soap & Glory The Daily Smooth Body Butter, but if I ever fancy a change this one would be my first choice, maybe in the Lemon + Sage scent! £6.40 – click here!
