Makeup Collection Declutter PART ONE: base products and staple items

[@lapislazulis2378]

As a fellow light cool olive, I'm going to pay attention to what you don't wear anymore and why. Your videos about olive complexion and high hips have been really usefull to me! I wish someone could have explained me 15 years ago why I could not wear foundations or skirts the way other teens did! I'm a HLP suscriber too! She has great content, like yours! Loving your big blue stone ring ❤

Loved the video

[@sallyfrench007]

Loved this! Super inspired to do my own again now, thank you 😊 Interesting that you kept your favourite mascara wands to use in other ones, it always seems like such a good tip but I never remember to, and I guess it only really works if the tubes are the same size? (I always struggled to bin old makeup until I got a patch of irritation that wouldn't go away - I saw a video on bacteria which gave me the ick to the extent I deep cleaned all my brushes and chucked out the old cream and liquid stuff. It worked but I still have powder shadows that'll be here long after I've died 😄😄)

[@LexiLadonna]

Yeah it only works if the mascara is the same size. These were both from the same company so it worked out ok (except I ended up hating the formula anyway lol). I tend to keep things like pencil-style eyeliners because you can sharpen them and basically remove the part that comes in contact with the eye, it makes me feel better about it. That's the only reason I've kept the really old eyeliners for as long as I have. I would never keep a liquid eyeliner for 10 years. But you're right, I'm taking a big risk every time I do it, and keeping mascara for a year is probably not safe either. I think 3 months is a bit short and I think they partly just want you to buy more mascara, but I think 6 months is reasonable. Everyone has to make the best decisions for themselves! If you wear contacts it's probably bad to take a risk, or if you've had eye surgery or something along those lines. But powder shadows??? Those things might as well be buried with me! There's a content creator I've watched that puts 100 year old eyeshadow on. crazy!

@@LexiLadonna Oh yeah the three month mascara thing always seems such a rip-off - I think my current one says 12 which I probably would have anyway unless I got an eye infection or something. Like you say, pencils can be sharpened to get rid of any ick, I even found one in the street which I sharpened and kept, and I've given them away with the same logic. A 100 year old eyeshadow, wow! How did the formula hold up? (Sidenote: I think I read they can be sanitised with a spritz of isopropyl alcohol but I'm going to check before I do that haha)

Did you ever get the powder from Givency? Was is a purple toned and what do you find purple does to your olive toned skin? Thank you

[@LexiLadonna]

@@TracyD2 yes I did! I like it. My face is much more yellow toned than the rest of me due to sun exposure over the years so I found that it corrects for that and makes my face a bit brighter. Like any powder it mattifies but not too much and I found it’s very finely milled and doesn’t tend to get cakey

Do you have a foundation matches video?
