[EDIT-Updated to not limit to a year, legacy posts for all years.] A few years ago I was inspired by a challenge on Instagram and we did a makeup inventory. ✨❄️December 2022 Challenge - 12 Days of Makeup Inventory - Show Off and Catalog Your Collection!!❄️✨ I was a little behind on planning this year (job interviews, life, not being able to login to the BIC), so I thought we could make this a yearly challenge for 2024+ and broaden it across all beauty categories. Why participate?I know I went back to my posts to find "dupes" for things that were limited edition (Melt Pumpkin King, in my case).It's a good idea to look through your products every bit to review for quality and cleanliness.Curation is important.Knowing how much in your stash can help with your Low/No Buy or keeping an eye on your backups. The fun of organizing your collection!!Rules Please no negative comments about the size or contents of others' collections, this is a place to celebrate our collections. Self-reflection is always welcome though 💖. Please don't take this as an impetus to declutter (unless you want to!). I'm going to try to get a little contemplative with mine, to see if I would purchase again or not. But don't feel obligated to join that part!! TimelineJanuary - Face Primers, Nail PolishFebruary - Foundations, Concealers, Cleansers and MistsMarch - Bronzers and Contours (singles), Serums and TreatmentsApril - Blushes (singles), Moisturizer and OilsMay - Highlighters (singles), Sheet MasksJune - Face Palettes, Non-Sheet Masks, Tools (Brushes, etc.)July - Eye Primers, Single Eyeshadows (free standing or in custom palettes), Body Cleansers, Body Scrubs, Body Lotion, Body GlitterAugust - Eyeshadow Palettes, Shampoo, ConditionerSeptember - Brow Products, Eyeliners, Mascaras, Hair Treatments October - Lip Balms, Lip Liners, Lip Glosses, Perfume SamplesNovember - Lipsticks, Travel Sized PerfumesDecember - Setting Powders, Setting Sprays, Full Sized Perfumes and Body Sprays

Thanks for the inspo!My 2026 beauty goals are: 1. Simplify my skincare routine: 1 cleanser, 1 serum or treatment for day and 1 for night, 1 mask, and 1 moisturizer for day and 1 for night. My current go-to’s are Marcelle Gentle Cleanser for combo skin#The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Serum for Oily Skin The Ordinary Multi-Peptide + Copper Peptides 1% for Wrinkles and Skin Elasticity 1 oz / 30 mlThe Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating and Brightening Daily Toner 8 oz/ 240 mLGlossier Futuredew Facial Oil-Serum Hybrid 1 oz / 30 mL Lush’s Mask of Magnamity Murad Multi-Vitamin Clear Coat SPF 50 Sunscreen 1.7 oz and Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask + Moisturizer 2.25 oz / 64 g 2. Only buy new skincare when I run out- gotta get some room back in the bathroom cupboards!3. Find my HG day cream (with sunscreen!)4. Pan at least one of my 3 (years old!) Urban Decay Naked Palettes5. Develop my technique for the “clean skin” look and try to wear it once a week 6. Have some fun and branch out with lip color. I’ve just bought Sephora Favorites Lucky Pout to try out some new looks7. Develop slick-back pony tail/bun technique. The fly aways at the nape of my neck keep getting to me!

They’re truly vintage @itsfi. Didn’t TF discontinue them? Anywho, mine looks liked the one on the right. I gave myself til March. Not sure if I can commit to the foundation stick which the only foundation I have left. Im so tempted just toss the TF stick and get a new foundation. 🤣😂

@itsfi Agree. The weather has been wild. Last week it was so cold. This week it feels like spring and today we have wind warnings. I am loving the warm weather tho. But this wind is wild. 🤪
