Since getting back into my passion and love for makeup, I have been on a shopping SPREE and have realized that I have made a great significance in my makeup supply and numbers. So, you may be thinking--okay, not a big deal--right??
It would not be if I had not been watching too many makeup collection videos.... I have seen so much makeup that I want ,that I have been BUYING A LOT OF MAKEUP!!
Now of course, I am a money-saver by nature because of my couponing saving habits, so this should not be too surprising! My motto is and has always been if it is free or next to free, I will get it! Most of my makeup adventures and recent purchases have been drug-store related makeup because of the great sales with my use of the store coupons and my manufacture coupons. I will admit I have really rocked those sales and have brought home some great priced items.
I just do not want to get in the habit of buying makeup that I will not use, so I have come up with a solution/answer to my "MAKEUP MADNESS".....I will wear a different look and a different product for each day. This way I will not waste or let it sit for some long period of time. Makes sense, doesn't it??
I just do not believe that I have to have every product in every color, shape or size. I consider that not being money-wise and wasteful. I have yet spent a lot on very high-end makeup products. I have found even better products for much less and sometimes even better! The girls and young women that I have seen in these you-tube makeup collection videos are not necessarily bragging about their collections, but sharing their common interests/love for makeup.
The only problem that I have and just recently are guilty of is feeling like it is a competition of who has the most makeup....By comparison, I do have more than the average woman of my age and even younger, but it is my job and has been my passion for a long time. I do like new products that create new techniques and bring new colors to my ever collecting rainbows of wonder. I do not want to have more than I can handle though. I have plenty to do many reviews on for others that would like to know the products worth.
Do you have a extensive makeup collection ?? Is it living within your means of time, money, effort and energy?? I am asking myself this and with this, I will not focus no more on thinking that I need to have every product out there. I just need to have the ones that work for me, could work for others and share their benefits. Many products have the same ingredients, the same colors, do the same things, and vary in price.... We all need to not be so caught up in the brand name and think the more it costs the better it will be.
I hope you find this helpful and maybe, just maybe have it acknowledged your very own solution to simplify one's life/purpose. Who would have thought, maybe having too much of something would make you think that we need to re-define the word PURPOSE. Keep your love and passion for makeup! Share with others each and every benefit. By doing this we can celebrate together, its true worth and value!
Much love and hugs,
Joy
