Going through them again!
Love it!! Let us know the results! I love going through things and clearing out the excess and unused.. so refreshing.

In other news, I thought I'd disclose that I met another one of my #lowbuy goals: losing my first 5 pounds! So if anyone sees my post in another thread about buying one of the Chanel cream blushes (#64) today, that's why!
Don't worry, I haven't fallen off the wagon.

One thing out, adored msf I've never used. Leaving it now coz I can't put them back in thebox how I want, but going to try leaving them unboxed so hopefully I reach for them more. Congrats on the weight loss :)

I wistfully remember the days when all the makeup I owned would have fit in that box with room to spare! So my drugstore stuff was joined by Bobbi brown stuff my mum got off qvc for xmas when I was 19, then I got a job in the big city lol and found mac, I've gone mid range to high end. AAnd now I have a box dedicated to cheek products! It creeps up on you! 26 this year, time is strange.

Same! I never even wore makeup in high school and in the first few years of university mine easily fit in a pencil case sized makeup bag lol.. I'm 26 this year too! Funny how much things change in such a short amount of time.. I don't smoke, drink (very much) or do drugs and I only have a handful of things like shoes, handbags, fragrances etc. so I feel like makeup is my one vice. Not an excuse to go crazy though.. gotta keep myself in check.

Lol! Love apricot beer! Online shopping.. now that's dangerous haha. I got an email from Sephora about deluxe samples including the HG primer that I wanted.. had to shut my eyes and walk away. I did get my Chanel blush but it was within my rules so I'm okay.

Glad to hear your #lowbuy is going well!

I've been getting better.. I looked at a bunch of stuff but then only bought the 1 item I went for. Chalking it up to progress.

There's this one beer I love called Melon Head.. They make it in Fredericton, NB up here in Canada and it's my favorite: http://www.picaroons.ca/products/melon-head/ Hard to get where I am but when I can I stock up too!

Good job!! It's so hard to just get 1 thing! I'm usually like oh well while I'm at it let me get this this and that. Lol I'm bad That sounds delicious!! I've never heard of it! I'll have to look into it and see if anywhere here has it or any specialty beer places! I've never really seen or at least noticed Canadian beers before so I wonder where I would find it

I know what you mean.. It takes a lot of time to go to the mall so when I do I like to stock up. But now I just don't go to the mall and it's a bit easier.. haha. When you do only get 1 thing you can give your full attention to it though!

It's amazing.. they're a smaller brewery so I don't know if they even actually sell it in the US. It's hard to find it in other Canadian cities even.. but if you ever do see it, snatch it up!

They usually have a good selection of specialty beers at private liquor stores here in Canada. The apricot is stellar, as is the strawberry fizz! And in the summer, they have a gorgeous pink grapefruit Hefeweizen!
