Creating an inventory was eye opening for me too. I'm so happy that I did it though! I took inventory of every category of makeup that I own. I put mine in an Excel sheet and included the date I purchased the product (if I could remember approximate date or if I could look it up on the retailer's website), cost, color (and have the cell filled in with the color as well so it's easier to see at a glance), and included a column for a mini review/my thoughts.
Face of the day:
- Foundation: Ellis Faas Skin Veil
- Concealer: CdP Radiant Corrector for Eyes and CdP The Concealer for marks
- Blush: Charlotte Tilbury Ecstasy
- Bronzer: Edward Bess Daydream
- Highlighter: Becca SSP Pearl liquid with ABH Amrezy layered on top
- Eyebrows: Soap and Surratt brow pencil in blonde
- Eyes: I used the CdP Radiant Corrector to even out my lids. I've noticed that, with my dry winter skin, dedicated eyeshadow primer has been making my lids look kind of flaky. Gross. I used MAC shadows in Mythology and Swiss Chocolate. I used Pat McGrath Blk Coffee to line my eyes.
- Mascara: Lancome Mr. Big
- Lips: Pat McGrath lip pencil in bare rose and Tom Ford Pink Dusk lipstick
- Perfume: Molecule 01
I currently have 4 bronzers - Chanel Soleil Tan, Edward Bess Daydream, Hourglass Luminous Light, and Tom Ford Gold Dust (the small size). I'd like to get to two bronzers - 1 cream (the Chanel) and 1 powder. I'm considering decluttering the Hourglass and Tom Ford, but I just don't know.... I may just declutter the Hourglass. I do really enjoy both the Edward Bess and Tom Ford quite a bit.
I also am thinking of decluttering my ABH eyeshadow singles. I prefer MAC for some reason that I can't really explain. The ABH are more pigmented, but I think I may be one of the few people who doesn't love a heavily pigmented eyeshadow. I pulled out my ABH shadows this morning because I've been trying to make myself use them. I've actually pulled them out every day for the past week, but I end up putting them back and using MAC or the Dior quint I'm trying to use up instead.
