Such a difference! Also I love the tartan scarf/ shawl !

My eyebrows are naturally sparse and much lighter than my natural hair colour (thank you to my Scandinavian ancestors), so I also do my brows to make it look like I actually have brows.

Is that gorgeous blue nail polish from Mooncat?

wow really nice shades!

Okay but it is kind of giving higher fashion!

I did this last week, and I had driven to the appt and noticed in the car.

Omg the beret and braids are so cute! Your eyebrows don’t look bad!

Lmao just today I forgot to put mascara on and wondered why something didn’t look right once I got to work 😂😂😂

Omg what lip color is that! Beautiful! And I didn’t even notice anything off, you’re beautiful too!

I live in a perpetual state of low buy and I have trained myself into talking myself out of impulse purchases lmao. Whenever I get the urge to buy something I wait it out. I usually forget after a couple of days or I brood over them for weeks until I get the chance to buy it. If it's something like makeup or skin care, I wait until I run out of that particular product and make a bookmark for the replacement if it's something new I want to try. Right now I'm looking into a new sunscreen which has me very excited and motivates me to complete my current one!

The carebear pjs are so fun!

If you like the L’oreal mascara but you do not want to wait a couple of weeks for it to have the perfect formula, you could open a new tube and leave it open for 1-2 hours. I tried this trick with one of my mascaras and it worked perfectly. Love you hair and makeup!🔥

OK so, listen. Technically broke July ban already buuuut I wanted my Sephora birthday gift which looks pretty good this year. I only got Milk Kush brow gel which I actually do need and use and finish up so I'm not counting that as a spend fail. 50 bucks on book preorders though. Anne Applebaum and Jason Stanley's new ones.

Regret not buying that elf sheer slick in their 40% off sale now l see it on you. I was strong & resisted. Im sure I'll survive 😅

Thank God, I didn't buy the Fenty stick. I have a feeling it would not agree with my skin. I bought the Estee Lauder Double wear and I feel I don't ever wanna go back. And it's not at all heave yon me.

Love this Make up! Looks so healthy!😊

My ‘no makeup’ musts are a quick base, cheek tint, brow gel and mascara. Always mascara!

Mascara ALWAYS and I'll just pinch my cheeks if I'm really in a hurry.

I have blond lashes and brows. Mascara at least.

THE CARE BEARS JAMMIES ARE ICONIC!!! 🥰💖✨

I hope the fragrance works out for you! 😊 I did well with my budget, but broke my makeup no buy rule with a blush palette so half success half fail

I almost always skip eyeshadow on work days but never mascara, i have so many eyeshadows sitting there going bad thou i should at try and use them 🙈

Your blush and hair looks so pretty!

This is real and I’m so happy I looked on the mecca app yesterday and I saw that “glossier” was in one of the brands under “G” and I was so happy, but then I saw it went off and I was thinking it was a mistake until I came across this I’m so excited to be able to test out glossier in stores here in nz! 🎀

🤗✌️

Not me thinking Australia was warm all year round! 😂 Learned something new today! LOL

I’m with you on mascara. I’d rather forgo all other eye products

I have always admired your earring collection. Details please ❤

hey what are your thoughts on bondi sands ???

Ooooh, don’t be sad. I definitely didn’t done it well with my no buy year. I’ve learned a lot of things about my self though. I bought a little less, I enjoyed a little more the things that I have and I buy with more thought. I like your content 😌 😊. Don’t lose your mind about buys. Keep being yourself ❤

How odd, I was lucky enough to be in a store looking for a new foundation, and the sales assistant helped me shade match my G.A. So I didn’t have to mess with samples or guess purchase online. By looking at yours, your sample looks more like the shade I bought, which is 5! However the way the shades are numbered, my shade 5 should be deeper or have a different undertone to the 4.5. Your full size 4.5 looks even darker than my 5, they’ve definitely messed with it and that sample in my opinion must’ve been incorrectly labelled

Please tell us a dupe for the Voldemort lip! I am following your channel (now with renewed purpose) for my quest to find a bright, cool red!

Kat please tell us what lipstick you are wearing! Its beautiful!

Overall my no buy is going well, I've only bought supplies I've been literally out of, like acetone for nail art. A lot of perfumes trigger migraines, but I really enjoy perfume so it sucks for sure.

Lipstick or lip liner brand and shade please. Looks great 🤩

Niche fragrances will nuke your bank account so fast (speaking, sadly, from experience)

As a perfume maniac I really feel you. Hope you'll do a video about your latest perfume endeavors, I think it'll be so fun! My latest obsession is green tea fragrances. Saving up for Tea & Rock'n'roll Voyages Imaginaires and would also love to sample Jasmine Tea One Day

ive cut back on makeup and being picky which new releases come out, due to the cost of living. i cant understand how makeup companies can charge so much knowing people dont have a lot to splash around.

Please tell us about your Perfume purchases 😊

Paula's Choice got me (again) with their anniversary sale (175 bucks), bought another Jane Iredale powder (still wrong shade) and I accidentally just bought 2 foundation sticks. Sticks are surprisingly rare these days. Oh no! I forgot I just ordered a new cushion foundation at 1am this week. Ugh. I just want a method w/speed and no mess. It's the only fragrance free cushion there is and they have a new pale shade so I just justified that in my head right now. That's my low buy June!

Nail polish vid too!! I have a small problem with those too!

Allergies make fragrances a bit difficult for me. I have to be very careful. If you need book recs I can help! I am a librarian. Library cards are awesome for saving money. ❤ Working on using up one of my oldest lipsticks, just started a new mascara, expanding pan in a powder foundation. Trying bunches of fragrance samples to see if there is at least one that doesn't make my eyes water like faucets.

I'm with you for needing to keep occupied at night. I was considering taking up knitting or something to keep my hands moving while I watch TV, the only issue is my test run did not go well with my cats deciding to cause chaos. Any suggestions on a cat proof idea to keep hands busy?

Playing on my phone is a big trigger for me, too. I started bringing a book with me, a physical book, not on my phone so I don't get tempted to scroll, and whenever I feel the need to scroll my phone (especially when I'm commuting), I pull out my book and read instead of scrolling on my phone.

Have a rule for beauty sales. If it's not at least 30% off it's a no. Save your money and buy when businesses are struggling. US Retail struggles the most during summer.

I always seem to spend more when I try to put myself on a budget/no buy as i find I obsess over what I'm spending more than when I'm not.

I've tried no buy/low buys. I can't do it - I end up feeling bad when I "break it." I am, however, able to make myself get rid of something to replace it = something in, something out. Because I've been cleaning up my collection of beauty/skin care, I currently have items I really like. It's sooo much easier to stop buying now. That being said, I love fragrance minis! They are my favorite gift with purchase. 😄

Instagram is bad, it's literally all ads and businesses selling

soooo 50/50 😅Some things i steered clear of as i have SO MUCH skin care or haircare, i only bought what i needed to replace for shampoo and have been panning my skincare but it's slow going, other things i went off the rails for, but i also justified that i'll be replacing some t-shirts and my runners are worn to hell, so like, it was a splurge but also i have no other sneakers lol I'm still torn by makeup that i want, even though i have absolutely NO FKN NEED for more palettes! help the sales are pulling me! ><

I was holding out and panning skincare so I can buy products I really want and then I went and bought other products and now I also have to pan those first 😅
