Decluttering My Life; My Makeup - Primers, Foundations & Concealers.

Hello My Lovelies :) x

   So I recently done a post on decluttering my life. So now I want to begin with the most challenging and most head sore of them all…my makeup. I used to be obssessed with makeup but for some reason I havent had any interest in it at all I just want to get rid of as much as I can and keep the things I use regularly. 

   So I wanted to put my makeup into 3 different catagories; KEEP, THROW & DONATE. I kept the stuff that I know that I will use, and when I get through with a product I am just going to throw them and then use another product and so on until I have nothing left and then I am going to go out and get the essentials when I need them. I threw away anything that was empty, old or seemed off. And then I donated products that I have only used once or twice and I don’t like or it just didn’t work for me to friends and family. I went from 9 drawers in my Ikea alex drawers, 3 drawers in my old dresser and 5 muji drawers and I got that into 4 drawers in my other dresser. I even got rid of my newer dresser! I am hoping this will save me a lot of money haha.

   Anyway onto the fun stuff, I am such a nugget though as I forgot or didn’t even think to do this at the time so I didn’t take photos of any of the makeup so you might just need to imagine what I had and what I have now! I can add in photos of my current collection so you can see what I have but anyway this first post is going to be focusing on…PRIMERS, FOUNDATIONS & CONCEALERS.
