I can't tell you how much fake jewelry I've bought and over time it gets rusty and it's just a waste of money.

To DEEP clean your sink, pour baking soda and white vinegar down into the drain. Let that sit in there while you're boiling water. Pour the boiled water down into the sink! It takes away the stink! Also, for the sink itself, pour baking soda all around and use the lemon half to scrub. It creates a gritty texture and makes the sink super shiny.

[@bettinabachhofer4611]

It's so thoughtful of you to be worried about the people working at the magazines etc.! But as a person who is working at classic print-media I can tell you: the trend to a more digital way of consuming magazines, books and newspaper was very forseeable (is that a word? Sorry, I'm german :D ) So most media companies expanded or shifted their content to the digital field. I'm working at a very small, local newspaper and even we created a lot of new ways to work (social media, online-newsletter, interactive homepage etc.) So if a media company SILL isn't present in that area it's really not your fault 😊🌻 lots of love for you 🌻 PS: I don't EVER buy anything in paper-form to keep my life clutter free.

Chinadoll That’s the best habit. Money is “energy”. We earn and spend money to make our lives easier and more enjoyable. Being mindful of how we use this precious energy is a reflection of our respect for our selves and our resources.

[@lulu-dr4eh]

I will never spend on getting my nails done or eyebrows threaded again. Instead I invested in a nail kit and learned how to shape my brows on my own. I use to spend at least $100 for a mani and pedi including tip (I like long acrylics lol) and about $9 on threading + a $5 tip. (Being in the service industry before makes me overtip lol) So I'm basically saving around $115 a month just by doing it myself.

[@lulu-dr4eh]

[@AntoniatheUniverse]

For my girls with bad skin who want to start wearing less foundation: look into tea tree oil! It was the start of how I cleansed my skin! Now I barely wear foundation too.. also read about benzoyl peroxide, because that definitely murdered my pimples super fast BUT full disclaimer - this is just a tip! Read carefully and decide for yourself! It worked for me, but it's quite strong and you have to be careful with allergies so do your research! Kyra: thank you for spreading the word about the environment, and self-love and acceptance for the way we are. You rock!

[@shawneejohnston4872]

How did you use tea tree oil exactly lol

[@AntoniatheUniverse]

@@shawneejohnston4872 a few drops of tea tree oil on a reusable pad with a few drops of water. I wipe my face with it every morning and evening. Alternatively tea tree oil mixed with toner.

[@chellybabyme]

Tea tree oil is also antifungal. You can use 10 drops in a cup of water to clean , only make a small batch that you need.. Spray bottle to either clean it with or end up the cleaning. Sometimes you need soap and a surfactant, but after that just spray the tea tree. Cuz that'll keep mold out of your bathroom and wipe your door under your sink keep that nice. While I'm there, if you have a drip under your sink you can put a bowl of salt under it to catch it and it won't create water damage until you can get it fixed

[@vm80]

Agree 100% about the foundation. I bought one maybe once when I was in my early 20s to try. I didn't much like the feeling, and also the principle behind putting on 'a mask' as it were. I'm sometimes complimented on my clear skin these days (over 30 now). It may be part genetic, but for sure I think using little products on my face has helped. For me a good day cream and SPF is all I need.

[@ashleydel5969]

As i get older, comfort, quality, and stuff i actually use/wear becomes more important. No more junk jewelry after turning 30, super padded push up bras, heels, dvds/cds, different cleaning sprays for every room, penny stocks, dryer sheets (switched to reusable balls), rice (rarely get it right).

I feel you on the shorts situation, I’m treating my varicose and spider veins, so far my insurance has cover, I only do 25$ co-pay. It is not as painful, but like they say they will look worse before they look better so after any injections or thermal ablations the leg ends up looking pretty bruise up...and before they start working on the spider veins they like to do an ultrasound to see if there are any “deeper” problems.

I use baking soda as a body scrub and exfoliator now. Love my baiden mitten and hydroflask. Buying things like slippers and purses that are made in America (durable) have helped a lot because I don’t have to buy new ones and throw the old ones in a landfill.

1. Real estate / House -- Makes you less flexible / mobile 2. Weddings -- Low quality content for high price (tired speech, mediocre songs/dance, mediocre food, etc). There's better ways to celebrate for couples 3. Cars -- Sits idle 95% of time. Many layers of waste (insurance, gas, parking, maintenance). Share, rent, or go car-free if possible

[@trulytiana9300]

Cars are needed when you live in small cities/towns with no public transportation or when you have to travel for necessities

[@sharalli3112]

Real estate can be a fantastic investment IF you don’t purchase more house than you can afford. I bought a cheap foreclosure, lived it it and fixed it up over 7 years, and made over 100k in pure profit when I sold it. Smart financial decisions can allow a person to have more freedom in life. However, since most people purchase WAAY out of their budget, then yes.. in those circumstances it can make you more strapped for tangible cash and add stress to your life. Totally agree on the weddings though. Have a small backyard wedding, or go to the courthouse. You’ll never really think about it much after years have passed, and that dress will just sit in your closet.

But then again that’s my opinion everyones Experience with tampons is different.

[@laurenc9214]

l also hate wearing shorts because of my spider and varicose veins that have increased over the last few years. I’m planning on getting them treated this year. I will say it is definitely worth getting it looked into since it might be something more problematic than just a cosmetic issue. I’m a diagnostic medical sonographer and we perform venous ultrasound studies to find any sort of reflux that might be causing those spider veins which equates to problems with the valves in your major veins not working properly. I know the surgery is expensive, especially without insurance coverage, but if it isn’t just cosmetic it would most likely be covered by insurance and also prevent any future health issues. I just wanted to let you know. Love your content from a fellow MA girl😊

I was confused when you said face mask. I thought you were referring to the face mask that we wear during this pandemic. instead we called it sheet mask if the one we use on our face 😅

I was today years old when I found out about washable pads!

I am so with you with those kitchen gadgets! The amount of random utensils I bought now makes me uncomfortable thinking about it 🤣 Great video! ❤️ I love the images that you use for transitions and context. Where do you get them from? I would love to use something similar for my videos when I talk about something that I can’t photograph right now (e.g. like the ocean, I miss going to the ocean so much)

Hi hun 😁 I actually get my pics/videos from Unsplash or pexels both sites are free to use and the best thing is that it’s copyrighted free!! Thank you 🤍

[@embraceintentions]

Kyra Ann Thank you! I will take a look. Have a lovely day

I'm really surprised you don't have an aloe plant. They're very sturdy and you can get a cutting from someone else's aloe plant and it will grow easily. If you want to go zero cost, if you buy anything in a glass jar at all. There's your container with water. They root in water

Your video is always inspiring me. Thank you so much, Kyra. Love from Indonesia 😊❤❤❤

I'll never ever going to purchase Plastic tooth brush and plastic hair combs in my life and now I'm working on re-usable bags instead of plastic bags 😊

I don’t wear shorts either. Although people always ask why I don’t and I wish they would mind their own business LOL. I’m curious though when you go camping do you just wear jeans in the capris? I tend to like the Capri Jeans in the summer more of a lightweight material and cargo capris I think are pretty cute with a T-shirt

When I go camping I normally wear my pj swear pants or my jeans. Since those damn mosquitoes love to attack my legs 😫. But most of the time I will wear sweats.

[@Living.minimal]

For me it’s definitely pads and fake jewelry, I’m constantly cutting out things that waste money in the long run and contribute to waste/environmental pollution

The febreeze car air fresheners have always been so strong that they made me nausea and a headache 🤢

[@noelleng126]

things I wont buy: watch, lipsticks, deco, paper books (takes up too much space). try to buy good quality clothes and shoes, they will just last longer. my boots last me 4 years, $120 worth spending.
