[@eviefromthemummy]

The hoodie paired with the smokey eyes, it's an incredible look

[@elin9467]

and hoops! 😍

[@sc1592]

A beaoodie guru, if you will

[@geel1866]

I thought it was a super cute look too, but when outdoors.

[@wednesdaygreenleaf9578]

"I want they, I need they, I saw they on TV!" is the most perfect sentence to ever exist. I will somehow shoehorn this example into my language acquisition lecture next semester 😂 My singular makeup Black Friday tradition is getting a new Dose of Colors single eyeshadow. They're soooo good but so expensive and they always go 50% off this week. I still have 4 more on my wishlist, so the hardest decision is deciding which one or two to get this year haha! Love the tip of treating yourself as if you're a friend you're giving advice to. Every one of your sale survival videos has a new gem!

[@kylieok7009]

I really really needed this. I have been struggling so much and I needed a kind, caring voice to tell me that its okay to take care of myself in ways that don't hurt me financially or that I can do things for myself that are off the grid. Thank you.

[@HannahLouisePoston]

[@cinemaocd1752]

I already kind of broke my mini no buy for the end of the year. I saw that JD Glow had restocked Unexpected and I ordered it. I knew if I waited for it to go on sale at the end of the week it would be gone. I got it and it looks great, but now that I have it in my hot little hand there is that moment of being like, yeah I could have lived without it.

[@mfenn7325]

As someone who covered her arm several times over with a wide array of eyeshadow swatches last night, even though I’ve only worn eyeshadow maybe 30 times this year, I again confronted that my aesthetic interest in color cosmetics and browsing doesn’t align with my use of said products.

[@SuperSilverJay]

That’s a great way of saying it. Maybe the best time to get new eyeshadow is when you finish your current set.

[@hayleypflug7384]

I absolutely cannot afford to be out here spending (especially on myself!) this season. I watch these videos to help avoid FOMO and general sadness for not buying new glittery things lol.

[@alysondramilano473]

Thank you for this. I was literally browsing makeup sites when this popped up. Especially the advice about the friend. If a friend gave me my makeup list I’d tell them ‘nah girl you don’t need it’. I need to give myself that same advice

[@lavieenroseglitter7364]

Just decided to start a no buy until 2022, my spending has been out of control this past year and a half and I want to make a change. This is just what I needed! I’ve been going through your old videos as well for tips ❤️ Love you and your channel so much💜❤️💜

[@emilys1045]

Same!!!!!

[@Ophelia441]

I’m doing the same! Doing a 2021 no buy for the whole year!

[@kingcrimson1204]

Me too OMG! I haven't really overspent per se but I feel like I've been vacillating this year between being completely satisfied with my closet (fashion is my thing) and then buying new stuff 😂 I've done the last clear out for 2020 and I'm going to spend 2021 creatively working with what I ALREADY OWN 🤩

[@emilys1045]

@@kingcrimson1204 love that idea of spending the year working with what you already have!! Awesome 👏🏻

[@Portia1416]

Same here! We are planning to build a home and are saving right now and so makeup and beauty is just not a necessity right now. I need to focus on long term goals! (Although I’m so bad at it!) 🙈

[@allthescarves]

Hannah, I would love one of your free-range posts on the topic of gifts -- not so much the consumerism, but your philosophy, how your experiences giving/getting gifts has shaped you, great gifts you've given and received .... wherever you want to go with it. I LOVE giving gifts, and it always takes me aback for a moment how miserable it is for some people, often based on past experiences. And obviously gifts don't have to be a thing you spend a ton on, or even something you bought at all (like the gift of time or assistance.)

[@juliewells4282]

Congrats on 30K! So awesome!!!

[@HannahLouisePoston]

Thanks so much!!

[@alexwoolard4052]

I love the idea of treating oneself outside of buying stuff on black friday, like indulging in something to eat or drink instead. brilliant idea

[@norailves6823]

Another tip that stopped me from buying a few things yesterday : if you really want something that has been out there for a while, try to search for detailed reviews. We often want things because we imagine that these things possess certain qualities that in reality they do not. I've watched videos with people using my desired items and swatching the makeup I wanted and I realized that these items are not special at all. These things are just okay, just ordinary stuff, similar to what I already own. And when I realized this, the desire was gone. I ordered stretching stand to ease my back pain instead.

[@SuperSilverJay]

I specifically search for the lowest reviews to show me that the odds of being happy with the product are low.

[@Slendergirl89]

On a side note I'd love to see a kind of mini series of you creating your own custom palettes (that undersea apothecary one/rainbow grunge one was lush!), have a swatch video, and then maybe a three look one palette with your own creations? I feel like that would be so much fun :D

[@kathleenkaffeine8696]

Another way to curb Black Friday shopping is to have the Natasha Denona website crash on a continual loop of insanity until you give up and don't buy anything 😂

[@womanofacertainage5892]

OMG YAAAAAS with the hoodie up. so sosososososoo cute!

[@KieraJo]

Yes-“Revel in what you own” is my favorite tip here! I love to just grab my eyeshadow palettes and highlighters and glitters and look at them and swatch them and remember how magical they are. :)

[@amyherrick6772]

Me too!!!

[@annas.2570]

Hannah, you need to design a sweatshirt with that whole:" I saw them on TV" quote. I would totally buy it.

[@notafangirl]

I love the journaling idea! Stream of consciousness writing always leads me to the crux of whatever matter I'm writing about.

[@darcyreadssometimes3904]

You’re giving me cool, caring older sister vibes. Thank you.

[@Alexandra_Gavrila]

"you can't shop when you're working".. said innocent Hannah.. :)))

[@HannahLouisePoston]

hah! I guess the nature of work hours varies from job to job, LOL :)

[@karlarountry1725]

Omg I’m always swatching everything for no reason but to revel in what I own! 🎨 I have a whole store worth of makeup! It’s ridiculous and I’ve cut down so much! 🙏

[@AmeerahMuhammad]

I’ve actually been “pretty” level-headed about makeup lately. It’s all the OTHER stuff I love that’s been a problem lately lol.

[@sarahwalden178]

This video is especially helpful for me, as my birthday almost always falls on BlackFriday/Cyber Monday, so the impulse to “buy myself a sweetie” is even stronger. I let myself buy some things, typically things I know I won’t receive as gifts that I’ve been wanting for a long time, but combining extreme sales with incessant marketing with a really rough year with a big birthday (40!) that I won’t get to share with my friends because of COVID is really making this a tough year not to shop with abandon. Even though I know I’llbe buying some things, one of my favorite strategies is “comparison wishing,” where I think of the thing I most want, and every item I see come through my inbox as being on “such a good sale!” I compare to that thing I most want. If it doesn’t measure up, I put it out of my mind. This has been far easier than I expected, honestly. And I have the peace of mind of knowing that I’ve allowed myself some indulgences but I’ve carefully considered them to make sure they’re as special as I want them to be. Happy Thanksgiving, and thank you for helping to get us all through this year with such grace and joy.

[@kirrisolly-slade1313]

My inner toddler also takes the form of ‘I want a sweetie’ ever since you told that story! I’m thankful to be working Black Friday this year... who would of thunk it!

[@claireplauche7724]

Yayesss gurl yahyesss... college classes lookin so much more productive.

[@jaimeflowersashley9380]

I will be dropping off all of the mini pumpkins I used to decorate the house for fall to a friend with seven chickens! (Outside only, masked, fifteen feet apart.) no waste, the chickens love them, and it gives me something to look forward to on Friday.that isn’t about shopping!

[@Mel-pb5xw]

Love this!!

[@claireragsdale1301]

Thank you. I downloading the yourcloset app and think this is perfect to narrow down "need" vs. "wants"

[@hcomet1999]

This is the video I NEEDED right now 💜

[@veggierunner79]

Thank you Hannah!! This is exactly the content I need today! I thinking of you as I flex my muscles for not overspending!!

[@womanofacertainage5892]

I love me some Hannah videos! :) YAY NEW VIDEO!!!

[@rocioingrid84]

I am just here watching you and laughing and could not agree more with the sweetie thing. OMG, this kid inside all of us :) This is brilliant Hannah. xx

[@jessiecarter4227]

This is chock full of such good advice, thank you Hannah 💜 And having watched some of your previous sale survival content, I think your depth of understanding and wisdom about shopping and spending is maturing more and more! It's so lovely to get to watch along as you grow, and I've been very grateful for your content this year 😊

[@womanofacertainage5892]

I'm so here for the "I want they!" and "I want a Sweetie!!"

[@alisonwg8726]

Such a perfect video. My sweeties! I want they! I need they! I seen they on TV! PRICELESS

[@ering7530]

🍁🍂I am thankful for you, Hannah🍁🍂

[@stacys.7094]

Great advice Hannah. I love the idea of enjoying what I have rather than seeking more. BTW, your background is lovely!

[@themoviemakeupmoment6605]

😆 you had me cracking up about the toddler talk. It’s so true!

[@tinythingy4]

whats going on with your looks lately, intriguingly beautiful... also that sweater looks nothing like a frog but it has the spirit of one, and I support that

[@HannahLouisePoston]

:)

[@moonlit.michelle]

I have always done lots of "window shopping" but I have never pulled the trigger with so much reckless abandon as I have this year. Sigh. I'm trying not to beat myself up and just make better choices going forward. I just finished reading The Year of Less and now this video is also extremely helpful.

[@PlainJane144]

The amount of various cosmetics companies shopping carts I have filled and never pulled the trigger on this year is crazy! Ahhh! Thank you Hannah, you are the voice of reason! 😘

[@f.i.4093]

OMG I needed this! Singles Day and Black Friday have fully arrived in Europe and it takes all my muscles right now not to spend ferociously.

[@Portia1416]

I love the reading concept. Although I am not a reader, I would instead journal. I love journaling but as a busy wife and mother I don’t have the time I used to have when I was younger. :) just wanted to suggest it to those who may not be readers but love journaling. :) you have great ideas! I will schedule a time this Sunday to play with makeup and organize my clothes. :D I also find doing acrylic nails at home and doing a face mask is very indulgent for me bc admittedly I don’t mask weekly (again due to lack of time) so for me it is an indulgence to do so. :D thanks for the tips! Black Friday has never been a temptation b.c I never liked the business at the physical stores. Cyber Monday is what always gets me!

[@abidavies154]

I love just swatching my makeup, definitely a good tactic! And lol I read during the day all the time, it is a lovely pastime just reading for hours :)

[@sadcap]

Your look is so cute in this video! I adore your hair colour

[@amberwings17]

This video could not be more well timed! I committed to not buying any more makeup for the rest of the year, but all the discounts and sales are really tempting... I wanna spend my money on gifts this holiday, which will bring me more joy and it's my love language. The trouble is not to overspend on gifts too 😂

[@ghoultiful]

I made a word document with the things I for sure wanted and what date they were on sale and have been avoiding everything else. My biggest $$$ item was actually for my guinea pigs (an extra fleece habitat liner) and not myself if you can believe it!

[@emilys1045]

Guinea pigs have needs too ❤️❤️

[@taniaquinones3447]

I was watching another one of your videos when the notification arrived about this one.

[@robrobben6066]

Yay! another Black Friday video! Thank you

[@JustFionaGallagher]

Thank you 💚 I have been lusting after a Tom Ford lipstick that is like half a shade different from Flame which I already own. I was inches away from making a purchase and then I put on Flame and remembered that I really want to be a one red lip person. Woohoo!

[@IonelaCh]

Congrats on your 30k!!

[@HannahLouisePoston]

Thank you!!

[@redcypher]

I really enjoy this smokey eyeshadow look! I already bought some stuff but the ND Biba palette is still so tempting to me :( it has an amazing price in comparison to my countries usual sales, but I don't want to get eyeshadow fatigue at the same time. Thanks for the video at the right time and have an amazing day :D

[@cinemaocd1752]

I love this look too. I'd love to see a demo of it. My guess is that it's the vibe dupe for the Baroque palette from CP....

[@alpuz8511]

There weren't many things I wanted, but they all didn't even go on sale! Aimlessly browsing websites full of makeup and clothing, and even utilities I'm trying to get myself excited about, just because they're on sale (and I'm a student who can't afford much of anything with a clear conscience), was just off-putting and exhausting. I ended up talking myself out of the ND Mini Gold palette and opted for buying the Hot Jalapeño Elf one just to see if green even suits me. I'm just dipping my toes in this effervescent pool of beautiful things and your videos have been really helpful in terms of learning how to negotiate with the toddler in my head instead of trying to pay no attention to their desires and ending up with a temper tantrum.

[@karensnailstudio7171]

Hahahaha so good hearing the sweetie story again!!! 😝😝😝

[@emilyschrodek9688]

Thank you for posting! I just overspent yesterday and needed this to endure the next few days! One thing I have found I love is if I do buy something I spend the day “researching” it after. Getting excited about the purchase over and over instead of looking for the next dopamine hit. Also, I couldn’t find your Spotify playlists? Would love those 💜

[@HannahLouisePoston]

I had forgotten to put the playlist in the description box, but it's there now!

[@curiouscoquettexcourtney4778]

Love the Mario Star Immunity! All very wise advice, thank you!

[@alicewonder4923]

I've fallen off the wagon pretty badly in the last 6 months. And I know how bad I feel about it when I almost didn't click on this video because I didn't want to hear all the good advice that could help me not buy the things I don't need. :( But watching you videos always makes me feel better and more centered and calmer. As did this one. So thank you

[@narlyenatvanya]

This is so helpful! I haven't really sat down to budget these kinds of things in the past and have definitely overspent on makeup (mostly just makeup), so I'm going to start doing this process going forward (starting today!) so that I can keep track of and stick to a budget for myself as well as appreciate what I already own.

[@jennifers7134]

i needed this today! thanks, hannah!❤

[@AnaCosta-sq7lo]

Oh Lord I need this video... thank you thank you

[@anerdnamedalex8527]

Black Friday always freaks me out..: if I want to make a pretty expensive purchase I think about if for at least a week before I commit to it... with Black Friday I usually don’t have that sort of time to reflect on if I really need and want it.. I like when brands release their sales for the week or weekend rather than just the one day.

[@amyherrick6772]

They are betting on us feeling FOMO for one day sales and making impulse buys. I like to reflect as well!

[@stampinprn]

Thank you for this video. I truly needed it today. I am going to indulge in playing with my own eyeshadows and duping the vibes of some more palettes.

[@elysejohnson8144]

I really loved your small business gift guide last year. If you have any updates to that list it would be great if you made another video!

[@sophieserendipity4164]

Thank you, Hannah, I love your survival guides!

[@GinaStanyerBooks]

Thanksgiving has been so off my radar this year, for a second I almost forgot what Black Friday was! LOL I had to think to remember that it is actually this week. That is not making me mad tbh.

[@thrivingandbeyond3541]

Fantastic strategies; thank you so much, Hannah! I think preparing ahead of time, writing our thoughts, buckling down with firm resolve, and filling our days with other things is so important. I'm here for the neon green in your hoodie!!! :) (P.S. I used to comment under the handle LA Looks.) Hugs to you, Joe, and Miss Sadie during this holiday season! Thank you for all you do.

[@Darima2]

Great tips, I needed this because I've been perusing the pre Black Friday online deals and I'm feeling the urge. One of the ways I've resisted is just allowing myself to peruse the site, add things to basket and then to logoff without making the order. Most of the time the urge fades away and if I look at the basket again, it's almost like I'm out of the trance because it's so much easier to go ' I don't need any of that and how could I fathom spending that much more on cosmetics when I already have so much??' That time away from the computer and coming back makes you clearly see the insanity of it all. It's just the trance of capitalism. Be strong everyone.

[@HannahLouisePoston]

I do this all the time, too! "out of the trance" is such a great way to talk about it.

[@catherinepeck7025]

This is one of my favorite videos! Much needed advice for everybody. Burning question: did you get the gift for your mom? What was it?

[@Tash_28]

Such inspiration! Wise words, lovely. And very eloquently explained. I also can't take my eyes off of that luscious plant behind you! What is it!?

[@HannahLouisePoston]

it's a philodendron selloum!

[@Tash_28]

@@HannahLouisePoston Thank you! I love you for responding! I had a feeling it was a philodendron or Monstera but didn't want to assume :) It really livens up your space and I adore the full green foliage! Happy Thanksgiving Hannah!

[@stephbryan]

I don't expect anyone to read this comment since I'm so late but this is such a great video. Hannah I hope you do another similar one for this year!

[@corriemcclain7960]

Great tips. I've realized in March and April that two of my essential things need to be replaces and have been limping through the year telling myself no until black Friday for one item and cyber Monday for the other. Even though I'm buying myself planned things my inner toddler is like no we want a treat too. Just saying no is easier than buying something, fighting myself for a couple days, and then buying another planned thing. If I could just buy them both the same day it would be easier, but now I'll plan the middle

[@samanthaimrie2918]

I LOVE swatching all my own stuff! Especially eye toppers! Trying to only buy gifts Black Friday so maybe I’ll do some swatching!

[@heta4737]

For me black friday is really the only time in year when I buy makeup so it's always super exciting for me! But you're right it's really easy to go overboard with it... This year I decided to make an order from yesstyle that's max. 100€. As they already have their sales up I made the order. I'm finally going to try out the VDL lumilayer primer and got some cream cheeks and lip products! I always use so much time when online shopping to make sure I want it, how it would feel like to have the thing in my life and deciding what's the best shade for me etc. so it's kind of tiring but also SO MUCH FUN! I've also decided to buy one roen quad and CT highlighter if they go on sale (but if they don't I'll leave it to next year) and buy some magnetic palettes as well but that's all. Hardest thing atm is resisting colourpop lmao. Why is their marketing so damn pretty?? Also that look is smoking.

[@alysiajarman9158]

My version of this is wash allllll my makeup brushes. Then pull out all my make up re-organize it and wipe down whatever I’m going to put back on my vanity. That normally sedate my I want that I saw it on TV self.

[@wendyxkuma]

I’m working Black Friday which makes it easier to avoid sales. I have a few things I have planned to purchase, mainly my cleanser that goes on sale every year, I buy two bottles and it lasts me until the next sale!

[@sc1592]

I need Hannah merch that is a giant capitalist gremlin saying “It’s time for you to get your sweetie”

[@biancacolmenares620]

Absolutely! There is nothing more effective to get me not to do something than someone telling me to do that thing. Just ask my husband. "Nu-uh, I'm not listening to you!" *Fingers in ears* This is also my inner child now that I think about it... Trying to work on that one too 🤣🤣👀👀

"Mario star immunity song" is what I need to sing to myself, and keep in mind, each time I say no to buying something and feeling good about the "no".

[@zusamy20]

I´ve bought what I wanted , now it is time to just have a look and just admire the beautiful things on sale from the distance. I prefer to save for things I really want and not buying small things here and there just because they are on sale. Btw, playing with our own things is an amazing idea! I love it too combining palettes, combining lipsticks, combing clothes with my accessories and just having fun n.n

[@sarahwalden178]

A swatching game I love: I love to do palette bingo with swatches. Just like all the palette bingo tutorials, I use a random number generator, swatch the colors it chooses, then take a photo of the palette with those swatches. That way, the next time I’m doing my makeup, I can look back through those photos of color combinations I might not have thought of myself and it makes me use my makeup in new ways. Even in the moment of swatching, it makes me see that palette or my singles in a new light, and I realize I’ve only scratched the surface of their potential.

[@courtneyrodgers8435]

A thing I always look forward to on Black Friday is getting a ridiculous fancy coffee while I’m out and about , but instead I could try to replicate my fave at home. I’m on a no buy this month, so I’m just putting my head down and working on Black Friday

[@AuthenticallyAmie]

I've bought quite a few things during these sales, but they were all things I've had on my wish list for a while, as replacements, "wardrobe completion items," or gifts, that I knew I was going to get eventually and wanted to hold out on in case I could get a discount.

[@gabriellestrandquist2950]

Oooook. This vid is a need 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@jaimiemcnulty7804]

My best strategy for not shopping on black friday is to work in retail during; there's nothing that will put you off shopping more than working during black friday. I did end up putting in a sephora order for cleanser, lip balm and concealer which are all things I'm running out of and picked up and extra shift at work to compensate. I think I did quite well 😁

[@TashiSoCali]

Should’ve watched this before I shopped Sephora’s sale section and picked up two foundations, a set of lip glosses and a setting spray 😭😭

[@Slendergirl89]

Hearing the word 'sweetie' in an American accent is one of the most bizzare things haha. You hit the nail on the head though - it's that giddy childlike feeling of wanting something new and shiny over the new and shiny thing itself half the time. Shame I didn't watch this video before I spent £100 on early BF deals heh. I wish I had friends who liked makeup IRL like I did. I feel like if I was buying for others I'd get that buzz and be able to be a good samaritan and not drown in eyeshadow

[@ndeluca77]

I've wanted the VB Lid Lustre in Mink since it came out and I almost bought it the other day when the VB site started their sale. But then I went through and watched all my shadows that I think of the same way and I have so many incredible ones! I still really want it but I'm going to stay strong and pass on it.

[@heleng5253]

Black Friday is an errand for me now. I work through my list and ‘the hunt’ is for the best price. SHOP DON’T BROWSE

[@jessicaharrison4719]

There is a single multichrome from Devinah Cosmetics that I spent so much time researching, and I would have already bought it since it was in my budget except it isn't in stock until tomorrow. And I still might not get it, because we have a family policy that we never shop on Thanksgiving day, and that's when she is restocking. And that's okay. I will not die waiting for that multichrome eyeshadow. This year I am getting much better at waiting for what I want, and trying to be better at giving myself what I need instead. Because when I am impulse shopping, it usually means I am trying to compensate for something I need and am not getting.
