My sister just passed away from breast cancer and we’ve been obsessed over makeup since we were teenagers. We bonded over makeup and spent hours on the phone talking about makeup.

What tempts me the most, is eyeshadow palettes. I need to learn how to shop my own singles better and look critically at the palettes I already own. Fall palettes are calling to me! I really love how you pair honest reviews with reminders that you always have the option to shop your own stash. I appreciate your push towards really thoughtful and intentional purchasing.

[@exomake_mehorololo]

I'm the same. But I started using all the fall palettes I have each day. Another one each day really shows me how much I have and how I already have tons of overlap in what I own and how all the palettes being released look the same 😅. I own every possible fall palette and shade anyone could release. Using your make up and consciously changing each day/rotating it really makes crystal clear how you really don't need any more in a way nothing else does

I love how you talk to the kitties--kind of a love speech. I agree about the shelter cats--I have had four (all black cats). The one I currently have is most likely my last, but she was young when I got her. The first couple of days she was home she rarely slept. She ran from room to room, to the basement, into closets. Finally, she gave up, I looked for her high and low because I was so used to having her running around. I found her camped out on top of tall dresser. That was about 6 years ago.

Hey Em. Happy Thursday. I’m a fairly long term subscriber of yours and always look forward to your video up load days. Today, I am enjoying your video a little but extra! Your video has been an incredible distraction from the chaos and nightmare that is Southwest Florida today. I live about 15-20 miles directly east of Fort Myers beach where the eye of hurricane Ian made landfall. My husband and I along with our two dogs and home successfully survived the storm with minimal damage to our landscaping and pool cages. All things that can easily be fixed. Unfortunately, that is not the case for SO many people. The devastation is unfathomable!! Peoples large boats washed ashore inland and in the middle of main roads, the causeway between Sanibel Island and the main land crumpled! Many people stranded and deaths “too numerous to count” as of now per the Lee County Sheriffs Office. Please keep southwest Florida and all the people affected by this disaster in your thoughts and prayers. My husband and I feel incredibly lucky and incredibly grateful, and will be doing whatever we can to help those around us that weren’t as fortunate. P.S. our subdivision isn’t too far from the Fort Myers airport, so we share a power grid with the airport. Somehow in those 100 mph sustained winds and 140 mph wind gusts we never lost power! Although, most of The newer construction home communities down here all of your electric lines and such are underground so that definitely helps with the power situation.

A business is created to make money. So they are constantly coming up with new products for us to buy. They work with marketing firms to come up with the most attractive packaging. All just to keep us coming back for more! I ask myself, how new/reformulated/better can they really be? It is really fun to buy the latest products, I love it. I’ve always wanted to buy an hourglass palette, but they have so many different things I just don’t know what I’m buying. So I give up.

[@lorainemcgillivray77]

Hi Emily despite being someone who LOVES makeup and watches a LOT of beauty videos, I don't actually buy a ton of makeup. In the last 12 months I've bought 3 eyeshadow palettes (plus one eyeshadow quad), a couple of eyeshadow sticks, one blush, some eyeliners on sale and mascaras - that's it. Not too bad overall I think. If something really catches my eye I put it on a wishlist and consider it carefully before purchasing. I never buy it on launch (when my subscription feed here is saturated with videos on it), instead waiting until the hype dies down and if I still want it months later - that's when I buy it. Makeup expires at some point and having masses of stuff that never gets used would make me feel really guilty. Now I'm not a content creator where it's my job to review makeup etc, just a normal consumer who loves makeup. I don't need every new release I think is pretty, when I probably have similar shades already. I try to be reasonably restrained and live vicariously through others - hence watching videos about the new stuff lol. I also know my own makeup taste and I like soft cool tones and neutrals for my colouring, so a bunch of warm toned, or bright jewel shades, or a very dark palette are never going to be for me - which is often what is launching this time of year (this also plays a part in being a bit less excited by some of the launches). Currently the top two palettes on my wishlist are the new Laura mercier palette with the soft shades (not yet released in the UK) and the smaller size viseart cool mattes palette (I've been eyeing this one for a while). I bought the viseart cashmerie a couple of weeks ago as my Autumn/Fall palette, but I've had my eye on that one for months and months. Best wishes.

[@brendachristensen3878]

Great idea. I have these thoughts when searching out eyeshadow palettes. I just know I have those shades but…….blush is so much easier for me.

[@marlenedistancia452]

I feel like people exaggerate when new products come out. Go to Sephora and ask for a sample if the product is there. You don't have to waste $ on things you may or may not use until it's finished. I have 3 foundations since 2019. Once I finish 1, I'll try something new and if I don't like it....I'll move on.

[@jaymiecyrus7172]

I think those Hourglass palettes are gorgeous. I also love that they are customizable. You can choose which shades you want with which compact. Hourglass should have been doing this all along with their holiday palette.

[@sarahwalden178]

Would you please make this a regular video? I absolutely love the inspiration behind this, possibly even more than a dupes video! Even if I find an exact dupe of a new product that’s cheaper, I often still forget that I have many similar products and I don’t actually need anything new at all! I want to work on loving what I have, a project that is even harder with all the newness of the holiday season.

I love that you promote using your own stash. I have started doing that and don’t even shop the Sephora sale because I don’t spend enough to get 20% off.

[@UnpurrfectRobyn]

This is what I always do! I put things on my favorites/wish list and every once in a while go through that list. I then look at what I already have to see if I have something similar already. If it's a product that I don't have anything similar to, then I will leave it on my list and wait for a sale/coupon/discount! It saves me money and keeps my collection more curated and less cluttered.

[@leaheiden2436]

I loved this video!! Such a fun take on a way of shopping your stash and talking out of new releases! Also really diving into the newer products descriptions to find something similar in your collection is genius! The kitty tails at the end were also quite cute and hilarious!

[@twinksheartsong4478]

Many years ago I went to Citizens for Animal Protection (CAPs) and I was adopting a kitten. They told me that if I adopt one, I could get a second for free. I said "haha...no thanks", and left with my one kitten. After a week of getting my ankles attacked and seeing the beginnings of my furniture getting destroyed I went back, and CAPs let me pick a second kitten for free. That was the best decision. Now my little girl had a brother to play with which saved my ankles and my furniture. They both lived to be 20 years old and passed away within a week of each other. We had a beautiful life together.

[@paolasantiago6300]

This is so funny because sometimes I try to do it, not only with makeup but sometimes we have lots of stuff that we never use or use once and when there's a new product we feel the urgency of get it without the need

[@emilynoel83]

great point!

[@Thought_Criminal77]

Emily's intro always puts a smile on my face 💕

[@lisahindmon9291]

Lol I lost it when you told your kitty "bc the people will complain.". 😂😂. Good Lord, I can't imagine complaining about something so trivial. I hope most people are kind in the comments.

I liked this video. I just made myself a new rule. For every new eyeshadow palette I get, I must give one or two away (sanitized, of course,,). My friends love it and it keeps my collection smaller. Eyeshadow is my weakness.

I enjoy anything that helps me save money! Thanks!

[@jenniferboblitt-johnson6435]

Yes, I agree 100% with this.

[@anniegold7763]

Ok now I'm about to buy that profusion violets palette thanks Em. LoL I don't have anything like it I lost all my makeup and I'm trying to rebuild so I have been thinking about getting the mauves palette from profusion as well and for the price I can get them both. You always do such pretty eye looks 😍 I always feel like I'm with an old friend watching your videos so I would watch anything you post 😊

[@emilynoel83]

Those palettes are SUCH great quality- you will be really impressed! Thank you for the kind words!!

[@KosOrSomeSayKosmo]

Also as a viewer I just want to say that I appreciate your reviews in terms of deciding where to spend my money!

[@elizabethcolahan8586]

What an awesome idea for a video. I love how you think outside the box and come up with such cool content. Truly love your channel!!! Keep doing your thing girl!

[@Sue_WWeb24]

Loved this video!! We all get sucked into the latest and greatest, but sometimes we already have something similar in our stash. I have so much makeup, it’s hard to use and appreciate it all. This idea forces you to look at what you have and fall back in love with old faves. ❤

[@changeeyecolor3891]

Really informative...

[@mariahahn1288]

I absolutely loved this video. Such a great idea. I'm also attracted over and over again by the same things, color stories, etc. So it's great to step back and think about the things I alreaady own. Please make a series out of this!!! Love u.

Hey Em, this was a great message. I literally just emptied my Sephora cart down to 3 items I use regularly and needed to replace. As a result I rediscovered my Lancôme Tinte Idole foundation. Thanks for the great video!

[@LoveABun]

That whole line from Lancôme is outstanding! I hear lots of beauty bloggers mention them as holy grails-like the Idole mascara and concealer.

[@lstone3633]

I pulled out my it cosmetics palette and just appreciated the heck out of it the other day. I'd love to see you revisit it again.

[@gcdub3585]

Great video! I have to remind myself I have so much makeup and don’t need to buy the latest thing. ❤

[@lenap5999]

Awe your cat is adorable

[@xchiachiax]

I absolutely love this video. I do the exact same thing right before each of Sephora's sales, load up cart and then shop my stash for similar products. This also helps me unbox any purchases or products I may have forgotten about. This weekend I just unboxed a bare minerals setting powder and highlighter duo that is now discontinued. This actually saves a lot of money is good for the environment.

[@wendyvoye3110]

Love this type of video! Trying to get my makeup spending under control 🤦

[@nicolemcardle5711]

Thank you for this video, Emily! I've really been reigning in my spending. I finally realized there will always be something new that everyone 'has' to have. I'm learning how to enjoy what I already have too!

[@artofface.iwishiwasamua8127]

These video themes are so good, Em. It helps us focus on what we have and reminds us to enjoy them! It's why I also love binging on your previous and older videos.

[@changeeyecolor3891]

Do what you love...

[@danaa4450]

those hourglass palettes, i have some of them from previous years and somehow, every year when they come out with the new holiday palettes, i want them too! i just can't get enough of them because there are such good powders!
