Beauty Product Declutter

 Hello, everybody! How was your weekend? I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I've accumulated a lot of products again, so I decided it was time to go through everything and get rid  of products I don't like or have too much of. So without further ado, here's everything I'm decluttering!

Matrix Biolage Smooth Proof Serum

 I still have a ton of hair oils even though I've decluttered quite a few already over the years. Since my hair is fine, I only use the tiniest bit of oil. There is no way I'll ever go through all the hair oils that I currently have. I decided to keep a couple small jars of oil and get rid of this large bottle.

It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream

 

This shade was just a little bit too dark for me. The product itself isn't bad, but I live in the pnw and we don't get a lot of sunshine here. By the time summer comes around again this will be expired.

Estee Lauder Futurist Skin Tint Serum

 This was a perfect shade match for me, but I could not make this foundation look good on my skin. I've tried no primer and then all different kinds of primer. I applied this using a sponge and a brush. Nothing I did could make this look nice on me. It accentuated my pores and creased all over. Such a bummer!

These colorful hair ties

 

I asked my husband to pick up some hair ties for me a long time ago, and he grabbed these bright colored ties. I never use them. If I'm using this type of hair tie, I reach for my neutral shades. I have 2 shades of brown and black hair ties that I use. I think I'll keep these around (just not mixed in with my hair stuff) to give away to anyone who comes over and needs a hair tie.

Hair Dryer Brush

I've used this a couple of times, but I just never reach for it. The brush part doesn't work for me. I'd rather just use my traditional hair dryer.

These hair clips

I liked them when I bought them, but I never use them anymore. I'm trying not to hang on to anything I don't actually use.

 

Not pictured: Coty Airspun Powder

I didn't get the chance to snap a photo of this. My mom saw that I was getting rid of it, and she asked if she could have it so I gave it to her. I barely used it. The powder is HEAVILY scented. Like, headache inducing. The powder itself is fine. It's a great drugstore option if you can get past the smell.

Cover FX Illuminating Setting Spray

This setting spray has glitter in it, so I never use it. If it didn't have glitter, it would be fine.

NYX Cosmetics Jumbo Eye Pencil in Yogurt

I never reach for this anymore. The color is nice, but I never use it.

Bare Minerals Maximist Eyeliner

I didn't like the brush for this eye liner. It was hard for me to get clean lines with it.

Wet N Wild Single Shadow in Creme Brulee

I never reach for this either. I usually just use a neutral shade in whichever palette I'm using that day.

Revlon Matte Powder Blush in Blushing Berry

Like most of the makeup items in this post, I never reach for this anymore. The shade is beautiful, but I don't use it.

BH Cosmetics Rose Blush Duo

The highlight shade in this duo is too dark for me, and the blush is shimmery. As you can probably guess, I never use this.

Meidian Green Mask Stick

I have two of these, and I really only need one.

That's everything I'm decluttering for now! Thank you for stopping by, and have a great week!

My Makeup Collection 2018: Primers + Setting Sprays

Hello, everyone!  How was your weekend?  I started my vacation on Saturday, but unfortunately I think I'm getting sick.  Isn't that how it always works?  T.T

Anyway, for today's MMC I'll be showing you all of my primers and setting sprays.  I have over a dozen deluxe sample size primers and am constantly obtaining more, so I don't think I'll be running out anytime soon.

Setting Sprays

That's all of them!  What are some of you favorite primers and setting sprays?

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you have a great week.
