Huge Makeup Declutter: My Most Brutal End-of-Year Cleanout!

[@ByKristinaStudio]

So how did we do? Let me know what you're decluttering for the new year!

[@atie3218]

I love that you take time to talk about each product, thank you!

[@ByKristinaStudio]

I’m glad you liked it!!

[@carlamcbride2457]

I wish the US would put the expiration dates clearly on the packaging of beauty products like they do in Korea. So much easier to know what's good still and what's expired.

[@gisellespringer]

Expiration dates are a suggestion. As long as the product still works the same and doesn't smell it's still good. 😎

[@lynettefinnigan9540]

​@@gisellespringer I 100% agree, if the powder hasn't faded, the creams aren't mouldy or smelly, and the liquids aren't separated, 'funny' mould or smelly, it's all good.... and I use it until all gone, or I'm sick of the colour or it shows these signs. Influencers throwing just because numbers on a sticker, and they were using it yesterday with no problems are crazy!!

[@lilies-and-lilies]

I love declutters! Feels nice to have a collection where you love every single thing. I just did a "makeup swap" with some friends so they could take the things I decluttered that were still good!

[@ByKristinaStudio]

That sounds so fun! And yes, I agree. Having a collection you love is the best feeling!

[@sydeezy17]

This year I have been obsessed with purple blushes and they are hard to find! lol next year i really want to branch out into peach but i am sooo cool toned it makes me nervous 😬 lol

[@Maiseevang]

Gurlllll.. I'm planning on decluttering this week too! About to have you playing in the background while I declutter too!

[@ByKristinaStudio]

That’s awesome!! I hope it goes well!

[@smeag9280]

I recently decluttered and it was so therapeutic. Tired of holding on to stuff I don’t use. All it did was make me feel guilty every time I looked at it. I know my style, my colors, and will no longer experiment and waste money!

[@ByKristinaStudio]

I feel like I’m getting to the point where I really understand what I like and what works for me too! It feels good to declutter 😌

[@sydeezy17]

I can attest to the GIVE beauty liquid blush in Purple Irises! It is gorgeous. They are buildable. Thin. dry down to a satin finish💕 and the purple tone is amazingggg

[@Katherine.Victoria]

Great video ❤ it would be a good idea to write the POA on a small sticker and attach it to the product.

[@ibsunshinesu6011]

I’m so excited to watch your declutter. I know it’s going to be incredible. Merry Christmas beautiful girl! Appreciate all your content ❤️❤️❤️

[@ByKristinaStudio]

Thank you so much for your support. I appreciate you 🥹 Merry Christmas to you too! ♥️

[@sydeezy17]

I love the Urban Decay Quickie concealer! I have been using it for about 1 and a half and honestly it’s probably my favorite outside of Natasha Denona and Lancôme Teinte Idole

[@ByKristinaStudio]

I didn’t have as much luck with the ND concealers, but urban decay is soooo good for my preferences!

[@Rachel-mt8wn]

Yes! Time to chill for 2 hours on couch in my comfies and watch ❤

[@ByKristinaStudio]

Ahh I hope you enjoy!! ☺️

[@Rachel-mt8wn]

@ can you do a sunscreen video ? Plleeasse

[@angeladesilva7913]

Shade of tirtir foundations please

[@ByKristinaStudio]

@@angeladesilva7913 I have 27N (winter shade) and 29N (summer shade)

[@thisisashlie]

That Caliray lip/cheek stain is one of my holy grails.

[@ByKristinaStudio]

@@thisisashlie I’m excited to use it!!

[@kirstenunger9083]

The abh balm I have and I didn't like at first but here's how I use it and I love it now, for reference I have normal leaning dry skin. I use the elf griping primer let it dry for a few minutes then I use my Charlotte flawless filter just a little then a few stripes of the abh it's so light weight that the flawless comes through but it tones down the shine, then for concealer I use the hourglass one, for some reason that combo works and looks like healthy skin

[@ByKristinaStudio]

I’ll need to try it this way! Thank you for sharing!

[@lilies-and-lilies]

I think the oldest things in my collection are eyeshadows from one of Colourpop's first palletes called Take Me Home, and the Amrezy x ABH highlighter. Why does highlighter have to come in such large packaging 😂 I can't bear to let it go since it still works so well.

[@ByKristinaStudio]

Omg I know! I feel like the Amrezy IS small for highlights which is wild 😂

[@pins.5979]

Watching while gift wrapping 🎁 😊

[@ByKristinaStudio]

Aw love that! 🥰🫶🏼

[@brontelee6726]

Your nails look like they were inspired by tiger-eye gemstones! Totally awesome btw

[@angeladesilva7913]

What’s your Haus labs foundation shade??

[@ByKristinaStudio]

@@angeladesilva7913 260!

[@pennylynn1998]

I’m curious when you guys say your going to keep this (foundations and any liquids) for reference. I’ve found that once my liquids are expired they don’t feel or look the same so how can you make that statement? I’m not being mean I just want to understand. Merry Christmas to you and your family!

[@ByKristinaStudio]

Totally understand! Usually when I say I’ll keep things for reference, my intention is to reference back to it before it expires (but in my case things have sat longer than intended lol). I also think shade references because I get that question a lot and I like to periodically make sure they’re still my closest match! And for shades I find they stay pretty close to the original. Merry Christmas to you too!!

[@pennylynn1998]

Ohhh now I get it!🙄 ❤

[@stellastella7510]

Decluttering lipsticks ❤❤❤ favor ❤❤❤

[@ByKristinaStudio]

@stellastella7510 that will be part of the next declutter video next week that’s already been filmed!!

[@lexexile5776]

oh i’m SAT

[@itsinthedetails5007]

ALL I see Is Waste. Influencers are a MAIN problem of this.

[@ByKristinaStudio]

I see where you're coming from! Please understand that sometimes, purchasing these things and sharing my own experiences can lead to others deciding NOT to purchase (not always though). I do hope in my case, that my videos allow people to become more discerning with what they purchase. I myself hope to become more mindful about my consumption in 2025 vs previous years because I realize as someone with a platform, I can also make a change. I hope you enjoy my content nonetheless and find some good out of it! And happy holidays!

[@itsinthedetails5007]

@@ByKristinaStudio No wworries! I love your channel. Im not calling you out. I'm sayiing the over all "Picture" is a problem with "influencers" being a MAJOR TOOL in this never eneding spiral. I Love you content, I'm just waring of the MAJOR ramifications or oversaturation on Influencers as a "whole". I hope this makes sense.😘

[@ByKristinaStudio]

@@itsinthedetails5007 yes that makes sense! Thank you for clarifying!

[@AndreeaC.]

​@@itsinthedetails5007 the major problem is brands that are sending PR packages for 1 influencer with all 30-40 shades, not the influencers themselves, they also buy a lot of their makeup, just for us to receive a product overview and save our money most of the time!

[@lynettefinnigan9540]

They get so much from companies, and indi brands need the publicity, and We the public need to know if its worth buying or not... but I agree, I love it when influencers do 'prize packs' of unused make-up to their followers, and bother to put in the effort to take swatched or slightly used products to women's shelters and such, to give them a helping hand, and of course their own friends and family.... the ones I dislike are the ones that hang on to everything, even colours that they know they won't wear, and it goes off and can only put in the bin...they are the ones that sadden me!!!

[@cicilyly6027]

Wow! You probably got sent some of these cosmetics. I stopped buying makeup, groceries are first!

[@ByKristinaStudio]

I feel that!!
