I’ve been procrastinating on finishing off this entry since it will be my closure post. But, enough delay – it has to be done. This is going to be a rather self-indulgent post…
Initially I wasn’t planning on doing a post like this to conclude the blog, but your comments when I made my announcement mentioned that I should be proud of my achievements. And you know what? I am proud of what I’ve created! Let’s celebrate it. ⭐

Stashy’s Hoarder Stash Giveaway WINNER Announcement!
February just flew by! And it’s the last day of the month which means it’s time to announce the winner to my Hoarder Stash giveaway.
Are you feeling lucky?
Ok, I’ll stop stalling. And the winner is…
Random 25 Questions Tag
I had another post planned for today but haven’t had time to finish it… so this is an unplanned “bonus” post. Why not do a tag for old times’ sake? 😉
There’s no official name for this but these were 25 questions that Polished & Inspired posed and tagged me. And I have posted a “25 Facts Aboot Me Tag” before, which you can also check out. Onward to the random questions…
Hauluary 2018 – Online Orders
These are an accumulation of online orders from since late December until now…
Some parcels were shipped from local sources while others came all the way from China and Japan. 🙂
Surratt Artistique Cheek Brush – Review and Comparison
I mentioned in my Holy Grail Beauty Products post that I haven’t done many brush reviews so it’s time to remedy that. After quite a delayed gratification (I first spied this brush in May of 2016, when Polished and Inspired came to Toronto for a visit and we pawed at this at Sephora), I was thrilled to add this delightful brush to my collection. You’ve seen glamour shots of it already, but here’s more:
I started using this brush as soon as I bought it in late November – after washing it first – and I want to share my impressions of it here.
Chit Chat: Blogging Do’s and Don’ts
I’ve had this post brewing for a least a year – originally it was titled “Blogging Etiquette” but what do I know about manners? 😛 I suppose it can be viewed as passive aggressive to post this now, as I am departing from the world of blogging. At the very least, I hope this will get you to think about blogging practices, and how it affects other people.
Let’s get the Don’ts out of the way first. Warning: I swear in this post. 😇
Stashy’s Hoarder Stash Giveaway!
*THIS GIVEAWAY IS CLOSED* Winner announced here.
It is universally agreed, I have a hoarding problem. As a parting gift, I’m letting go of some of the items in my stash, as well as some goodies I picked up especially for this giveaway. These are all brand new, unused, full-sized products.
What’s all included:
Accountability Summary (+ Makeup Inventory)
In reviewing my post history, I realized that I’ve never once posted an annual summary of my Lo-Buy / No-Buy accountability.
And I think I know why… because I’m a sneaky cheat! 😛
Hauluary 2018 – Post-Holiday Sales
I know, I know. I just posted about makeup decluttering and here I am, showing stuff I’m adding to my hoard. Never did I once say that I wasn’t shopping anymore! (I was just making room? 😆 ) And, I didn’t go as crazy this year with post-holiday sales.
This is called self control in my books! 😉
Massive Purge
You may recall that the primary objective of this blog originally was to reduce my beauty stash. I had a three-pronged plan:
A) Stop buying more (No-Buy / Low-Buy)
B) Use up what I have (empties aka Trash Stash)
C) Get rid of items that I no longer use (Purges / declutters)
This post is focused on plan of attack C! I’ve been meaning to post this since early 2017 for “Spring cleaning”, but never got my act together to gather all of the items. No time like now, right? 😉 This post will mainly consist of photos and product names listed out. It would take too long to provide a description of every single item with an explanation why it is being decluttered. Just look:
Hold onto your hats!
