Hey guys,
January is declutter and organise your life kinda month isn't it? Well for me it is haha. Instead of doing the whole room all at once and overwhelming myself I would start section by section; therefore I thought it would be best to start with my makeup and skincare first. In 2020 I hardly wore makeup so majority of it had either run out (physically or by expiry date) or I could pass down to my sisters.
It was so refreshing clearing it all out and shortening down the collection because who really wore a lot of makeup in 2020?! Everytime I have a clear out my sisters (aged 13 and 14) jump on me for them and then I feel bad giving them the empty ones so I try and find some that could do with a new home and some love. 💋💄
Firstly, I started with my actual dressing table and what is on view. I help my Auntie & cousins a lot; and my cousin one time bought me this clear vanity makeup organiser from B&M (I think). In this organiser I tend to keep products that I would usually forget to add to my skincare routine but would be beneficial to my skin. This includes; Skin therapy oil, castor oil, hydrating mist and Elizabeth Arden miracle oil. I have also got my Jade Face Roller, lip balms, Nip+Fab face serum, The Ordinary toner, my weekly face mask, nail polish remover and hair oils. In a separate section I then keep some creams for my spots and some tools such as; tweezers, face razors, face mask brushes, power & bronzer brush and a lip scrubbing brush. Finally to fill up the final gaps I add a few makeup products that I use on a daily basis such as; eyebrow powder & gel, mascara, concealer and a few nude lipsticks.
Away from my organiser my dressing table is quite clear. I have my cotton buds and pads in a dispenser. Then my Vaseline hand cream and daily perfume next to the dispensers. On the other side I have my 2 makeup brush storage pots with a little candle holder filled with my makeup sponges. Then I have my dry shampoo, micellar water (for my lazy days) and my vitamins.
Do you do the same in January with a big clear out?
