    Every few months I come back and watch this series of declutter vlogs, it's really calming to watch. I'm currently in a declutter at the minute and this definitely helps!!

  • @Runner8617

    very calming to watch! No crazy electric music, just your calm voice and your thoughts about the whole process. Very good quality vid. Thank you!!!

    Oh.My.Goodness. I LOVE this series!!!! You are such an awesome "de-clutter-er "!!! You actually declutter instead of getting rid of 4 or 5 products and saying how hard it is for you to get rid of anything.... That is so frustrating to watch on other YT channels 😉

    I know these are very old, however it's still motivational and encouraging to those of us who still struggle in this area!

    I'll still have my natural skincare ingredients to show, since I use those up often. But I'm going to be very strict with myself regarding all future purchases, that goes not only for makeup but everything else as well. For Make Out 2013, I'm allowing myself 10 makeup purchases total, that includes if I run out of something that I "need" to repurchase. 2013 is going to be boot camp for me, a lifestyle makeover. I think it will be just as entertaining as hauls. ;)

    I've been watching you all morning and I wanna thank you for inspiring me to get off my butt. I even told my husband about your channel. I love your creativity and your home decor ideas. I love your channel. Thanks for sharing 💕 Hugs from Orlando, F🌴☀️rida

  • @christinekobzeff
    @christinekobzeff  Před 11 lety +4

    I agree! Thank you!! Yeah, you know I was trying to keep those cupcakes lol. But I stopped, thought about it and realized nope I don't actually "need" these after all. Then I got Michael in there to make the final decision. So helpful they are! :)

  • @lisapaetz
    @lisapaetz Před 8 lety +10

    when I saw this series a few months ago, I thought it would be so stupid to watch someone declutter make up! "why did she even film this?" I thought... but I'm here now and I'm a little sad that there is just 1 more video left... it was so nice and calming...

  • @DaCrifi
    @DaCrifi Před 7 lety +1

    I'm watching your Less Stuff, Less Stress videos and just wanted to say "Heck yeah!".
    I've always steered towards minimalist living but a year ago I moved across the country to be with my then bf/now fiancé and I had to do the same thing because whatever was coming with me had to fit in my car. I had tried to do a deep de-clutter before then but never really got to where I wanted to be regarding the items that are a part of my life. It was kind of an amazing experience for me. Having the size of my car as a restriction for what I was keeping definitely helped with the process.
    Also, I am totally the same way in regards to a cluttered surface stressing me out. I'm all about the clean surfaces and also knowing what's in my drawers.
    Really like,your videos, thanks for sharing!

  • @omenasoosi4137
    @omenasoosi4137 Před 8 lety +11

    I really like this video-serie! It's so motiovational. I have always been very bad to give my stuff away, but i progress all time. It's just stuff. Your videos help me and inspired me, thank you for this serie ♥

  • @Riververchi
    @Riververchi Před 10 lety +7

    I truly mourned cup cake collection :( They were so cute! Anyway Chris! Thank you a thousand times for those videos and for you being you! Because of you I started a huuuuuge decluttering project and man, I am still going! Thank you for inspiration :)

    @christinekobzeff  Před 11 lety

    No don't let it break! There is a new love in town... it's weightless, refreshing, clean, space. Where my heart can breathe deeply and be free.

  • @SusanBishop555
    @SusanBishop555 Před 9 lety +13

    A waste of money is when you find a ton of makeup like I did that I can't even give away anymore. I bought it and some I have had for years. That is what happens when you don't get rid of things once you know you don't like them and they rot in your drawers. Make up is usually a trial and error thing anyhow. I have bought makeup that I thought I loved for sure and then it turned a bad color on me or whatever. Chris is doing the best thing and doing it before it is a true waste of money. :D

  • @lucy2steele
    @lucy2steele Před 8 lety +5

    Had to watch this series again 'cause it's so motivating!!!
    Also, am I the only dirty bird?

  • @erinhillard09
    @erinhillard09 Před 11 lety +1

    Glad I got to watch these videos! They've remotivated me. I don't have a huge amount of stuff, but I could feel myself wanting to buy, buy, buy... so I'm doing a no-buy for the whole year (unless I use up essentials, like all my mascara or all my foundation) to use stuff up and hopefully break that rut of constantly buying to feel happy. You're so awesome!

  • @franceslinda7355
    @franceslinda7355 Před 11 lety

    I'm not ready to declutter to the extent you are, but you have really inspired me to "shop my stash" and use up what I have - I haven't bought a single item of makeup since you started this series! Thank you so much.

  • @dizzyk54
    @dizzyk54 Před 11 lety

    You are so right about the stress and clutter. Once I get started clearing things away, I feel better. Keep going, I'm decluttering with you.
    You are such a great person.

    Been watching these videos since part 1.....will watch all tonight. inspiring me because tomorrow I am going to clean up the house. I moved back home from an apartment and brought all my junk with me. Awesome that you gave stuff to the women's shelter. We give stuff to my mom's church homeless shelter.

  • @Zoebabies
    @Zoebabies Před 11 lety

    I love this series. After each video so far i've ended up tidying out some area of my house. The videos have been my much needed inspiration! Thank you!

  • @christinekobzeff
    @christinekobzeff  Před 11 lety +1

    Exactly!! I totally agree! When I first started collecting makeup about 5 years ago, it was all a learning process, how to apply it, what works best on your skin tone/type, what makes a product good or not, you find your personal makeup taste and finally... you reach a point where you've tried so many products, you know exactly what you like and what to stick with. I finally reached that point. All the testing and exploring is no longer necessary. Thank goodness!! ;D

  • @trcervantes
    @trcervantes Před 11 lety

    I am loving that you are doing this! I do this all the time for the whole house. It is amazing what we hold onto and then it ends up cluttering up our lives.

  • @roositje
    @roositje Před 11 lety

    I have watched every part today! You have inspired me so much! I'm now studying for my exams, but today when I took a break, I just felt like cleaning my room! I'm planning to do 'one' corner a day. And that's all thanks to you, so thank you for making these vids! I loved watching them.

  • @lesesweet
    @lesesweet Před 11 lety

    I can remember when you purchased most of this stuff, buying, painting and putting the bling on your candle holders, the feathers in the vases, etc. At that time I was thinking....OMGosh! Now you are getting rid of it or giving it away. I am proud of you and you are such an inspiration for me to start cleaning out the clutter and all the make up I have purchased since watching CZcams. I love what you are doing and love the "make out". Great Videos!!

  • @Elizabeth7925273
    @Elizabeth7925273 Před 11 lety

  • @Kischa07
    @Kischa07 Před 11 lety

    I even started planning out purchases. It was horrible. On Friday, 10/26 I woke up thinking...that's it! NO MORE. I started with my kids closet, moved to mines, and now am on my bathroom closet (where all my make up is). It's liberating!!! AND I LOVE IT!!! Thanks Christine for giving You Tube a much needed reality check!

  • @christinekobzeff
    @christinekobzeff  Před 11 lety

    I agree! In fact, just last night I used up another skincare product that was almost gone. Got a couple more to finish and then I can go back to my oils. :D

  • @20justdance11
    @20justdance11 Před 11 lety

    I wish you had't deleted the old project minimalist videos! haha I loved watching them and I continued to watch them over and over and over because they're so helpful! And it would be cool to go back and see just how much you've really cleaned your collection out from a few years ago!

  • @tharpianwonder
    @tharpianwonder Před 11 lety

    I have been watching each installment of this series as you post them and I absolutely love them. I've only recently become sucked in to the CZcams beauty community (started watching regularly in July) and I've been spending crazy amounts of money on stuff I've seen in videos. It's do refreshing to see someone say "I have what I need and what I like-- enough already." I will definitely be on board with Make Out 2013!

  • @seashellspeer
    @seashellspeer Před 11 lety

    I am loving these videos. You have really inspired me to go through my collection of stuff & weed out what I don't use or like anymore. Thanks for sharing this journey with us!

    I know this series is very old but I find it so inspirational. I am so glad I found your channel! Your natural, vegan, minimal lifestyle seems so freeing, I definitely want to work towards that. I am already vegan but feel as if I can do better. Thank you for the push!

    Yep, as soon as I have 6 empties for them. Although I did donate a couple of mineralize eyeshadows to the girls at the shelter.

    Oh it was a promo from Sephora, they had it stuffed full of samples, you just used a code at checkout online. It was last year but they always seem to have some cool promo going on. :)

  • @christinekobzeff
    @christinekobzeff  Před 11 lety

    Oh I like the 6 bottles or less rule! I hear you, it takes forever to go through a single bottle, makes me wonder why on earth I was always buying the largest size lol.

    I love this series. I've gotten way too materialistic since I started watching beauty gurus. It needs to stop, and this is very motivating!

  • @Kischa07
    @Kischa07 Před 11 lety

    Again I have to say "hats of to you". I used to ONLY use department store brands, mainly MAC. After getting married and having 4 children my makeup obsession naturally took a back seat. In 2010 I started to get back into makeup because of the Hauls, tutorials and the giveaways. Over the last two years I've developed this "I need it since it's affordable and from the drugstore" mantra. In the last two months I began feeling stressed that I didn't have a BB cream or NYX this or Revlon that.

  • @readingwith.amanda

    @Kk-dj9rb Před 7 lety

    OMG, so glad your keeping your clarisonic....I was saying out loud when you were debating keep or not, " KEEP". I have a cheap version of that face machine and love it. I've always had skin problems and found out that any version of those machines do work. I use good ole Ivory soap with my skin machine & I break open a vitamin E tablet for moisturizer at my night routine. How's that for basic. I find it helps with scaring plus I was diagnosed last year with Sjogrens/ lupus.

    I so need to make out for 2013. I spent way too much this year on make up! Hundreds and hundreds of dollars and I just cant get enough! Thanks for inspiring me! I'm doing this with my cloths and then I'm moving on to my make up. It is somewhat painful to let go of things but someone out there is more deserving! Well done angel!

  • @christinekobzeff
    @christinekobzeff  Před 11 lety

    Haha, no I understand! Not to worry though, I have a never ending list of videos to do and I think this will be even more interesting because for Make Out 2013, I have an allowance of 10 makeup items for the year. So it'll be fun to see what each allowance gets used on. ;D

    MAC has a program (back 2 MAC) where they recycle their packaging. So when you save up 6 empties, you can take them into MAC and pick out a free lipstick (at counters) or a free lipstick or eyeshadow (at MAC stores). :)

  • @christinekobzeff
    @christinekobzeff  Před 11 lety

    Absolutely right! All the companies are battling to get our money. We're constantly bombarded with ads, commercials, emails... geared to make us think we need the latest this or that, even though we have plenty already. Learning to resist is a lifestyle change for sure!

    @christinekobzeff  Před 11 lety

    That's awesome! I'm so proud of you Kischa!! I'm right there with you, it's so easy to get caught up in the buying frenzy when watching YT. I got sucked into thinking "I need to get that" "I really want this" ugh... it was endless! When would enough be enough? It never was. Before I knew it my mole hill turned into a mountain lol. I had all of this stuff that I could never use up and felt awful. I felt selfish and pissed at myself. Then I decided, now is the time for a lifestyle makeover!! :)

  • @productjunkie69

    I just did my own version of this in the last few weeks. I've been pretty regular with sorting and gifting makeup to friends but I recognize in watching your video series I also have the tendency to talk myself back into keeping something if Im on the fence about it so I'm going to do another sort. Congrats BTW!

    Don't let negative comments get to you. Each person has to decide for themselves what they will keep and what they won't. For whatever it's worth you have my complete support.

    Haha no, I've just worked full time for the past 16 years, there was even a time when I worked 3 jobs just to make ends meet. These days, both Michael and I are full time jewelry designers (7 years now). We're not millionaires in money... but we love what we do and getting to work with your best friend everyday is such a blast, you feel like a millionaire. As for the makeup, that was a passion gone wild lol, which resulted in collecting too much, I don't recommend it. ;)

  • @delacotta360
    @delacotta360 Před 11 lety

    Good job Christine! Your area is so sleek now even though you had to part w/ your cupcake collection. That kinda frees me up to be able to part with things I've collected and loved now. Thanks!

    Imagine all the stuff in all the homes that have been devastated here in Jersey and New York etc. If we think - really think -- about how much stuff we don't actually "need" our lives would be so much better -- less stress for sure. I went through it 2 years ago after we had a fire in our home and had to leave and live somewhere temp for nearly a year. I had only a few items and some clothes with me -- and guess what? I didn't miss a thing. We were thankful we survived.
