Hauluary 2018 – Online Orders

I know, I know. I just posted about makeup decluttering and here I am, showing stuff I’m adding to my hoard.Β Never did I once say that I wasn’t shopping anymore! (I was just making room? π ) And, I didn’t go as crazy this year with post-holiday sales.
This is called self control in my books! π
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!Β 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.Β No time like now, right?Β π 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!
Happy New Year! β€
This post idea came up last year when I posted my yearly favourite discoveries.Β I did discover some gems in 2017 but I thought it would be more useful for me to list out all my Holy Grail (HG) items instead.
I’m going to force myself to just name ONE item for each category.Β I feel like embarking on this project is like choosing a favourite child. I love you all equally! β€ Continue reading
Here’s the 2nd part of my slacker Trash Stash:
Bath products are fun to photograph since they’re more colourful. π
A couple of housecleaning items to kick off today’s post. Β First: May the Fourth be with you! π And second: I seem to be in spam hell once again. I’ve left a bunch of comments yesterday on various blogs and they all disappeared. Β It’s so frustrating when that happens – can you please check your spam box? Click here to see where your spam is located.Β Thanks!
Onward to my April Trash Stash! This month turned out to be ok for empties – I thought I’d have only a few to show but I am on an ambitious plan to clear out my cabinets of items that just aren’t working for me.
It was fairly well balanced in terms of skincare, body, hair and makeup stuff, actually.
It’s April already! Did anyone get pranked on April Fools Day? π Mine was uneventful. Β Here are the empties that March yielded:
I got a bit nervous at around mid-March since I didn’t have a lot of empties in my bag but it seems at the tail-end of the month, I was able to use up a bunch. π
Finally, a mani on a Monday. An actualΒ Mani Monday! π
This is the nail polish that was one of my favourite nail polish discoveries of 2016 and I even made the bold claim that it’s the bestΒ formula I’ve tried all yearΒ –Β it is: CoverGirl Outlast Stay Brilliant Nail Gloss in #95 Being Blonde.
It’s always a mad race at the end of the month to have all my trash presented nicely and the give their final photograph before they’re tossed out! XD
I’m a bit nervous about whether I hit my target of one per day quota…
This post captures the rest of Hauluary:
Most were bought on-line and some were bought up until the very last day of January! π
