You all inspire me - no buys

[MissMarley]

I am trying to go on a no-buy for the entire month of March- the only exception is the new Covergirl iridescent cream eyeshadow trios- and it's the exception because I've been desperately searching for it in my city for weeks, and it isn't here yet- so I have special dispensation to purchase it if I find it in March.
So in order to fully appreciate what I have, and to figure out new stuff to do with my stash, I'm starting a makeup blog and I'm going to try to do a new face once a day for the whole month of March- will anyone back me up and yell at me if I start slacking? I'd appreciate it, because it's really going to help my no-buy commitment, I think!

I'm going on a no-buy too! Mostly b/c of my latest CC statement though

I've got way too much as it is, and I'm going to be getting rid of alot that I'm just not using, even if it is LE *sigh* This is not going to be fun....

My only exception will be for staples.

You've got a deal!
But it goes both ways, if I yell at you for overspending, you have to yell right back when I do the same.

I'm on a high-end no buy. I might buy some NYX shadows next time I go to the beauty supply, but I'm staying away from the high-end stuff for a few months, in order to save up for some good brushes.

I want to go on a no-buy too until Sweetie Cake comes out, but I bought some OPI's yesterday and I wanna get some Aveda from work tomorrow so maybe I'll start in a few days........

I share you pain ladies, I'm starting a no-buy this month too. Me and hubby are going to visit our families (mine in Puerto Rico and his in Argentina) in June, so no make-up for a couple of months.

I would like to go on a no buy for Lent. Sweetie Cake comes out on April 13th and Easter is April 16th. I really don't buy much compared to some of you guys but it all adds up. Some months I don't buy anything. There's quite a bit I want from Sweetie Cake so I guess now would be the perfect time to do it.

I majorly F***D up my bank account (found out today--went and got a printout) been battling it for two months, yesterday I took my dumbass to the mac counter (thinking it wasn't as messed up as it was) - Now I'm on a no buy until April or May - I'd like to make it until may and use what I have. Help!!!!!!!!!! **I did get a nice culturebloom haul though <sigh> and unfortunately my financial situation can't take that away from me right now.

I'm trying for a no-buy in March as well. I just need to chill out for a while and appreciate and enjoy what I have, and maybe then I can actually enjoy it when I buy something new!
