19 No New Things

Today's theme: Groom Your Grooming. Another thing that I've done over my years of exploring and practicing minimalism. Also, I don't think I've ever spent $4,000 in a year on beauty and grooming products, like the study Ashlee Piper quotes. But, I guess, maybe? I've never counted.

Since I don't have much culling to do, I figured I would list out the beauty and grooming products that I have and use right now. It's a pretty good snapshot of my routines in these areas.

Beauty

    - 1 brow gel

    - 1 mascara

    - 1 tinted lip gloss

    - 7 lipstick I do use

    - 5 lipstick I don't use

Grooming

    - bar soap

    - bar shampoo

    - conditioner

    - deodorant

    - face lotion

    - body lotion

    - 2 lip balm + Vaseline

Gadgets

    - 1 makeup brush (for the brow gel)

    - razor with refillable blades

    - comb

    - hairbrush

    - nail clipper

    - tweezer

As you can see, I have a very simple routine, but I love lipstick. I bought a lot of lipstick at once (I found a brand I love and wanted to try lots of colors!) and am now using them up. I have even replaced 1 of my favorite colors already. I truly believe that using simple products and having a sparse, simple routine really helps my own natural beauty shine!

Things I didn't buy today:

    - <nothing>....$0

TOTAL....$391

Retro success!
