#UseItUp 2015 & Thoughts for 2016

December 31, 2015

Earlier this year, I decided to challenge myself to use up a handful of makeup products in my stash. It is safe to say that I didn't exactly succeed - to be honest, I totally forgot about it!

#UseItUp 2016
Of the products I selected for 2015, I actually sold or gave away all of them except for two: my much loved La Mer Lip Balm and Kevyn Aucoin Liquid Liner. So for 2016, I'm gonna focus on using those up. Sounds like a much less daunting task! (Wish me luck.)

Leave No Product Unopened
Another challenge I'll set for 2016 is to use everything that is unopened in my stash. If you've been reading my blog for a long time, you'll know that I love to buy beauty products but often leave them in their wrapping for quite a while before I manage to use them. Seriously, once I buy a product it may take months or even years before I crack it open. Cringe. So next year, my goal is to try everything! Yup, literally everything!

Spend Less, Use More
I know I say this every year but maybe this year I'll find a way. I'm happy to report I've been wearing makeup much more often since the summer, so hopefully I can keep that up. And in line with some personal goals, I hope I can spend less and really focus on saving this year. 

How did you do with your challenges nd goals in 2015? Do you have any for 2016? I'd love to know!

Loving this combo lately! Been taking the little pouch from the LV multipochette with me to run errands. 😍 It’s perfect to fit keys, wallet & hand sanitizer! Are you a small bag/wristlet person?? 😀
Totally forgot to share that I cut my own hair last weekend. 😂 Swipe to see the before & after!
Dinner last night @mainstreetsoc! How pretty is this cocktail?? 😍Their lobster capellini is one of my fave dishes to order there. What are you up to this weekend?!
I think I was the only person wearing pants at the beach today 😂 but honestly the water was freezing and it was only 71 degrees outside. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Hope you’re all having a happy Saturday!
Finally breaking out this beauty today! I don’t know why I didn’t use it sooner! 

How are y’all feeling about the Chanel price increase? Did you manage to buy something from your wishlist before it happened?? I’m over here th
Happy Tuesday! I haven’t been on here too much lately - I’ve been really into gardening and started an Instagram lol! What have you all been up to lately?
A few favorites for this sunny Monday!
