EXTREME MAKEUP DECLUTTER / / MY JOURNEY TO MINIMALISM

[@taylorreynolds9182]

Suggestion: for the giveaway, a good thing to do is not put “giveaway” in the title or in the bio box because then it will attract people that aren’t subscribers and your subscribers won’t be the one to win most of the time. I’ve just heard many youtubers talk about that.

[@brittanyann]

I think that is a good idea. I might put it at the end of my last declutter. :)

[@lynsleeg7850]

Most do giveaway to build the subscriber count

[@Addleysmom]

lynslee Grumbling makeup huzzie so true but I’ve noticed with the KZbin changes the influencers who built their hundreds of thousands of subs on giveaways now have abysmal views going back almost a year. One I watch who is lovely had over 350k subs and her views range from maybe 9k to 15k with one 40k vid in the past few months. It’s a shame cause so many sub to win stuff and could care less about content. And Some creators don’t do anything to cultivate a stronger relationship with new viewers Nowadays sheer subscriber numbers often means little for views and income. I just find that all fascinating!

[@brittanyann]

I couldn't agree more with this. I don't do a ton of giveaways specifically for this reason. I don't have the intention of becoming "youtube" famous, so building my channel through giveaway subs seems pointless. I would rather have a smaller community of legit viewers and friends than a large community of people who just want stuff from me. :)

[@taylorreynolds9182]

SOOO HYPE for another declutter video and 30 mins long. I LOVE long declutter videos. 😍

[@brittanyann]

It took FOREVERRRRR hahah

[@brandimunguia]

For the palette that you like a few colors, you should de-pot those colors and put them into a z palette and then pass the rest of the palette onto a friend.

[@dfjkrrdruu2081]

Usually KZbinrs keep more than they get rid off. Good job. When I went minimalistic and cruelty free I went from about 50 products to 15. Four of them are brushes.

[@brandimunguia]

There is a website you can go on to check the expiration date of Makeup products. It’s great for when you are decluttering Makeup that you haven’t opened to know if you have to toss it or if it can be given away.

[@nikibowe]

Brutal and satisfying. Can't wait for more.

[@brittanyann]

:D

[@EasyAlaa]

One of the more satisfying and real makeup declutters that I’ve watched!

[@Whattowear]

lol. I'm the opposite for the wet n wild contouring palette I use the contour but not the hightligher XD

[@brittanyann]

That's funny! Have you noticed if you sweat or get wet from rain it streaking down your face? That's why I stopped using the bronzer, because it's actually really nice! I just know that if I'm at work and go to the gym right after I cannot be wearing this!

[@brandimunguia]

You should keep the givenchy brush from the mascara and use it in other mascaras that you like the formula but not the wand.

[@brandimunguia]

The MAC fix+ is great for spraying after you put on powders to make them really melt into the skin and look less cakey. It is also great to use for wetting your brush for highlighters or foiled/shimmer eyeshadows.

[@brandimunguia]

If you are struggling to remove eyeliner or mascara, saturate your eyes in coconut oil and massage it in and the makeup will slide right off, plus it conditions your lashes.

[@shhhlisten4850]

You can go on the MAC website & fill out a little form & print out a label with your choice of one product for free, lipstick. You just have to send them six empty products. So easy for those of us not near a Mac store. 🙂

[@VICOVIAN]

Essence has a great brightening powder it has a pale banana shade that doesn't make you look yellow it's really good and you can kind use it as a light baking powder ( it's a pressed powder ) so it doesn't make it that messy to use

[@cozymeowx]

Ssmasy Y I love that powder 😍😍

[@chelsealouise4772]

I had a 3 draw unit full of makeup and now i’m down to a makeup bag and it’s still emptier in the makeup bag but i love it! I wear no highlighter only bronzer, foundation powder, eyebrows and eyelashes (I wear bronzer as eyeshadow) and i only have 4 makeup brushes and a beauty blender my life is so much better now than it was before more stress free

[@ren2028]

Keep it up! It's so nice to see someone realize that less is more.

[@brittanyann]

Thank you!

[@brandimunguia]

With the it brow pencil, keep in mind when you use it that, the color depends on pressure. The lighter you push, the lighter the color. I have platinum blonde hair and that is the only brow pencil I have found to be light enough.

[@tamarinddigges9474]

The back to mac is for recycling the products and is still a thing xx couldn't you rather give them to a friend who lives closer to a mac so that they can recycle it rather than throw it away? ♡ small things affect our environment more than we think

[@ddcjenn]

You did so well! Awesome declutter! Thank you so much for sharing 😊

[@brittanyann]

Thank you for watching! :)

[@brandimunguia]

Where did you get that stand up storage tower? Right now I have all my makeup in the silver, metal mechanics tool organizer and it has 6 slots per drawer and then dividers that you can put in to separate even further. Right now I am almost at capacity and I want to get another storage container but it needs to be short enough and narrow enough to fit under my makeup desk without taking up to much room so my chair will still fit. That storage unit you have looks like it would be the perfect size.

[@csterling98]

Looks like the Clear 10 Drawer Rolling Cart by Recollections at Michael's Craft Store $30 reg. price (they often have 40% off in their App)

[@vickiem.6096]

Best declutter video on KZbin period!!

[@adrianazavala7905]

This is the best declutter video i've seen so far. So inspiring ! I loved it so so much! I also liked u. So in subscribing right now:)

[@brittanyann]

Aweee, thank you so much!!

[@erikareyes1198]

I just came across you today because I love declutter videos..but I immediately subscribed as soon as I saw Chester!!! He's adorable!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@brittanyann]

He makes my heart happy :), dawww yay, glad to have you!!

[@Sofia-ee6yc]

If you love the wet n wild matte highlighter side from that duo, you should try NYX HD finishing powder in shade banana, its my favorite and so so amazing!

[@Snookiekills]

Be careful selling pr. Many companies have fine print that say you can’t sell just give away.

[@kayjays7267]

Great video, so impressed with how much you decluttered as well :) :) I really enjoyed it and it was awesome to see you cut everything down to what you will actually use :) :) I remember the day when I had like 8 foundations, that makes me cringe now and I'm so glad I only have one that I love and I hate liquid foundations as well so its only powder lol :) :) I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't wear lip products though I only do so on special occasions. You've inspired me to go through my makeup again as I'm sure some of it has gotten fairly old by now as I barely use makeup and most of the time go bare faced. Thanks for the inspiring video :) : )

[@brittanyann]

I only wear lip products on special occasions too! & like only for the first 5 minutes if you have to take photos and then it comes right off!! haha I've probably only worn makeup about 10 times in the last three months so I'm with you on it being easier when you don't wear it every single day for a while and realize what all you actually don't need! :)

[@jessierose5319]

I wish you would open the items up especially the ones in which the cover isn’t see through like the Becca highlight and KKW palette to see what’s inside

[@tdam5777]

Out of all the declutter videos I've seen this is by far the best one... bc some ppl keep stuff just bc the packaging is cute and it drives me crazy.

[@morgangambill4548]

New subscriber! Came across your video for inspiration to clear out my stuff because it’s ridiculous how much I am not using! This is super intense! Just the push I needed. ❤️❤️❤️

[@nadareyene]

omg this is the most brutal and non hesistant decluttler i ever saw!! girl you KNOW what you want

[@kendralunday8415]

Very nice declutter series, just subbed. Itching to do my own collection now. Why must we feel compelled to hold on to so much stuff for so long?!

[@darkchii91]

You can send in your back to mac items, they have a form on their site!

[@brittanyann]

NOooOoooooOooooo I’m too late! Hahhaha they are trashed already bleh

[@rockysmom]

Great job! I wish I could do this too but I'm just not there yet. The blush and bronzer part was actually kinda painful! hehe

[@brittanyann]

Don't force it if you aren't ready :) No big deal

[@SimplyjenniferN]

This was a great video you were ruthless! I just did a huge purge and was second guessing myself on it and feeling guilty but now I feel like yes it was what was needed .... I may revisit and purge more 😊

[@brittanyann]

I think it would be a good idea to re-visit everything seasonally! I think that's what I'm going to start trying at least :). Glad you don't feel guilty anymore!!

[@asisqueezylovediary6474]

Thats how declutter should be done. U rock. What an amazing video

[@francisca6728]

can I have the benefit blushes and the too faced palette and the other things that you are decluttering please

[@amandabkayb]

What self tanner do you use?

[@elle-em]

What is the Kate Somerville SPF 50 bottle? I thought you said it was a primer, but when I search, I only find setting spray. Or do you use it interchangeably?

[@brittanyann]

I used the wrong phrase, it's a setting spray! I'm not sure if you can use it interchangeably, I get those two reversed a lot haha

[@elle-em]

Brittany Ann Thanks for the reply! I totally know what you mean. 😂

[@Sweetgotham]

Fantastic job! I try and keep a 'realistic' collection which is just a little less than yours and you really do get to more fully enjoy what you have when it's smaller.

[@meliketunc212]

OMG !!! Perfect... I'm Turkish. I love you. Love watching your videos! I need makeup because haven't collection 😕😙😙

[@brittanyann]

You'll build one over time. My suggestion is to not get too involved watching what others love on KZbin because it will prompt you to buy wayyyyy too much! That's how I got so much over the years haha. Just take it slowwww :P

[@meliketunc212]

Brittany Ann you are right ! İ will continue to follow you. İ'll learn a lot. Kiss you 😍😍❤

[@kennsoddcorner7859]

28:00 “STOP EATING MY STUFF! I love you..”

[@brittanyann]

He just loves getting into anything available to him hahaha

[@beautypatels]

Awesome declutter video!! I really enjoy it.

[@tigereyes5879]

This is what all declutter videos should be! You're actually honest with yourself about what you'll use and get rid of a lot! I'm sick of videos where they get rid of a small fraction and hold onto things they arent going to use

[@paulahayes1811]

Even though I'm not into makeup, this is so interesting to watch haha

[@brittanyann]

Haha it literally took me hours to film, never going to let it get that big ever again!

[@ChristineWilliglcrazyblue1018]

You can back to MAC via the MAC website ;) instead of going in store. Also, you can back to MAC at any MAC counter inside dept stores like Macy's :) hopefully that helps

[@brittanyann]

Mewwwww, I already threw them away....blehhhhh. Oh well! haha Hopefully this comment helps anyone else :P

[@potatosalad7440]

I recently decluttered so much makeup, and gave the majority to my mom who loves and is obsessed with it, and kinda felt bad/guilty for leaving a basket with things that I don't use daily but wanted to keep nonetheless, but now that I see that you did the same thing I fee better lol 😅😅😅

[@vr00mie87]

Just be careful with the PR stuff! From what I can recall, you're not supposed to sell it. I think if they catch wind of that, they'll take you off their list. I could be wrong, but I'd double check! :)

[@brittanyann]

You’re absolutely right! I don’t sell any of my pixi pr (only list I’m on), but for a little while I was on a site called octoly that sent free stuff for a forced review and I no longer am part of their program so I put 5 or so items up. I honestly didn’t think it was wrong to do so, but perhaps it is! I just sold it for like 90% off retail, made some people happy haha.

[@oliviaeakins1220]

Where are your drawers from?

[@SexualChocolate696]

How about repurposing your make-up box from TJ Maxx into a beautiful jewelerly box. I did and it save lots of space in my bedroom.

[@lifebydenisenicole5842]

I just have a makeup bag and I feel like I still have way too much stuff so I might declutter it.

[@lifebydenisenicole5842]

Also I think if you get a label maker and put the date that you opened the makeup it might help you to remember if it’s expiring

[@brittanyann]

I don't have one of those, but that's a good idea! & danggggg only a makeup bag?! Sounds like you've already made it into a minimal routine :)

[@lifebydenisenicole5842]

Brittany Ann when you live in NYC you need the minimum in your apartment it’s already way too crapped I can’t imagine having drawers of makeup!

[@jacenstarheart6256]

Great Job Very Well Done , Very Entertaining and Fun, Enjoyed! 👍👍💯❤

[@brittanyann]

Thank you!

[@jacenstarheart6256]

Very Welcome! :)

[@elainekester8771]

Wow, I need to do this but the anxiety I feel. You are awesome.

[@courtneymeador3066]

I wish I had some more makeup it’s just hard with three kids I wish I had anything honestly Any time I get a new anything I get super excited it .. I lovvvve makeup but don’t have much tho

[@Lesieva]

Living with less is definitely a journey. I still have a loooot but i think my makeup is very manageable, as are my clothes and kitchen stuff. I need help with books, dvds and random keepsakes and board games but... since theres space and it would be empty... thats harder than it seems.

[@Lesieva]

Just finished watching, very well done girl!

[@taylorreynolds9182]

You got rid of so much! So proud of you! What are you doing with your drawers that you had it in?

[@brittanyann]

I gave it to one of my old students who is heading to college! :)

[@laelakarimi]

I'm such a makeup hoarder and was doing a clean out earlier today. However, I feel like after watching your video, I could seriously do a second round and get rid of so much more. P.S. When you got rid of all those lip products in one swoop without even going through them, I think I had a panic attack! lol

[@brittanyann]

😂😂 I just NEVER wear anything but chapstick so they were probably all needing to be thrown away anyways lol It did hurt a little when it actually all left the house, but I love it now not feeling like I am wasting a bunch of makeup 🙂

[@iammiellenial539]

But I thought we shouldn't sell the things we get from PR? :( 3:54 to 3:58.

[@asisqueezylovediary6474]

That is real declutter well done girl.

[@ronnie-lynn]

This was SO satisfying 🙌🏻

[@ikramrafi6481]

Makeup declutters make me want to buy more makeup

[@cozymeowx]

Ikram Rafi same honestly

[@christinestevenson7227]

Ikram Rafi I thought it was just me hahaha me to x

[@brandimunguia]

You weren’t lying in the thumbnail when you said this was a savage declutter.

[@roselinefelisha]

Wow! One of the biggest makeup purges I’ve seen!

[@sakik3661]

you made me want to declutter my makeup too XD great job!

[@brittanyann]

Hope it goes well!!

[@annabanana6150]

Wow, you did an amazing job! I really enjoyed watching your video 😍

[@brittanyann]

Thanks, Anna!!

[@hajare.4536]

love this type of videos

[@netmitchell1377]

Hey do you have any makeup u not going to used it can you help me please

[@marie5075]

SO satisfying

[@delenzuaellis7289]

Love all the minis... But you did really good ...

[@brittanyann]

I'm the opposite, I do not enjoy them haha, thanks!

[@masaawartani4272]

oml so satisfying

[@laurastarfirebeauty]

Love the details and why your getting rid of it story time

[@077jess]

you did amazing!!! can I have your nars orgasm blush?! lol its my fave :D! haha

[@brittanyann]

I think I accidentally threw that one away! All I know is that I didn't sell it and I didn't keep it.... so it must have landed in the trash pile which makes me sad.

[@nadiabeautyo7107]

Hi you can sanitizer your lipstick with alcohol

[@hallieharbaugh8493]

Notification squad!!! ❤️❤️

[@sundus3013]

so inspirational😍

[@jessierose5319]

Lol I would die to be on Pixies and Milk’s Pr list

[@SnuglebunyDeGroot]

How do you get on or lists, just curious because I wanna start a channel but I’m kinda camera shy

[@brittanyann]

Mehhh, I'm not the best person to ask haha. I'm still a smaller channel so I literally am only on the pixie PR list. There are sites though that you can join like octolly (which I used to be on) where you can get free products as long as you do a review. You don't get paid for it. From listening to other beauty girls on one of the face group youtube groups that I am on a lot of girls will actually contact companies themselves asking to get on PR lists. I just never wanted to do that, didn't need the stuff since I don't do makeup tutorials on my channel. Now if any workout company wants to start sending me PR, that I could get into :P

[@naniomitendayo]

wow, must say you are a tough cookie! envy your decisiveness

[@brittanyann]

I can be decisive about some things, and just terrible with others! lol Mainly when it comes to picking restaurants to eat at :P

[@jaleesamack]

You can back to Mac by mail!

[@karenhayward91]

Wow

[@lucyvitek6215]

Hi Ashley Tisdale lol

[@brittanyann]

Lol I've heard that one before! That and the girl from the secret life of the american teenager haha

[@zoealonso1501]

Brittany Ann oh my god yes you look so much like grace that’s why I thought you look familiar!

[@brittanyann]

lololol that's the one I hear the most. I will take that as a compliment for sure though!

[@zoealonso1501]

Brittany Ann omg you responded I didn’t think you would I love you :) but yes she’s beautiful that’s why she reminded me of you!

[@vatiliaheard9678]

I want some makeup, what ever you don’t want, can you give them to me?

[@prieto6032]

you can give me all of your giveaway makeup

[@nakianicole2464]

Love

[@Zellezoebelle]

I would totally buy alot of this from you even the samples! @lilbigbow on Instagram

[@brittanyann]

I got rid of the samples, I think they were old anyways though!

[@dannahx]

A declutter video where somebody actually declutters shit... Good job :)

[@brittanyann]

😋

[@brandimunguia]

I will gladly take anything that is too light for you or doesn’t work. Even if you have used it, except eyeliner, mascara and liquids that can’t be sanitized. Powders and a lot of other things can easily be sanitized.

[@jenflink9954]

Your not supposed to sell PR freebies. When the makeup company finds out you Will be shut down.

[@iammiellenial539]

This was cutthroat :) nice :)

[@tenzinkunsang162]

I thought she was crying in the intro

[@bxxnnyy]

hi i love you

[@velmavelma8003]

Why don't you give away the stuff you don't use to your fans and subscribers????

[@brittanyann]

I am. 90% of the new stuff has been dedicated for giveaways.

[@velmavelma8003]

Brittany Ann where is the link to enter the giveaway?

[@brittanyann]

It hasn’t been filmed yet. I’m doing a series, it will come after my minimalist series

[@velmavelma8003]

Brittany Ann okay thanks. Please keep it international and don't do it through websites because it is pretty complicated to go through the websites. And kindly consider international subscribers as we don't get chance to win and we are only kept to increase likes 😕😕😕

[@brittanyann]

I've had multiple international subscribers win my past giveaways :) I don't like to keep it strictly US, I agree it's not fair.

[@ilivace]

Why is your voice shaky

[@therealiseedee]

You got rid of so much stuff! =P

[@brittanyann]

Thank the lord! haha

[@chastideakaelea4530]

Giveaway??

[@gerliesamonte-barredo2749]

Declutter? No so many makeups!!! Ughhhhhhh waste of time

[@amyd7301]

why does she sound like she's about to cry omg

[@brittanyann]

It's just my voice.

[@amyd7301]

Brittany Ann oh i see girlie!

[@dianereiser6417]

You got rid of way to much, you should’ve kept the Lancôme powder, it’s good for the winter months, it helps keep your skin hydrated.

[@brittanyann]

I'm habitually oily on most of my face, I found it to make me look even more shiny!
