STUFF I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT WITHOUT MY NO-BUY | Hannah Louise Poston | MY NO-BUY YEAR

  • In this video, I report on all the makeup I’m 100% sure I would have bought in 2018 if I hadn’t been on a no-buy, as well as some clothes, skincare, and homewares at the end. I’m sure it only accounts for a fraction of what I would have spent, but I hope you find it entertaining nonetheless! If you are starting a no-buy year for 2019, I recommend keeping better track than I did so that you will have a more accurate sense of how much money you are saving.

    Wow this is amazing and I love that you openly discuss debt! Sometimes it is easy to assume that by not buying means more money in your pocket however sometimes is just means not adding more debt and managing what you already have. That in itself is a win.

    Congratulations on paying off your credit card! I’m glad that you touched on the debt aspect because not buying something doesn’t always equate to extra money in your pocket. It can simply mean that not buying something saved you from adding credit card debt. This was a great idea to note what you saved yourself this year! I hope you had a nice Christmas!

    What is that??? When I discover that I love something, like an eyeshadow, a lipstick or even a pair of shoes, I go into a panic. I start searching online for MORE of it in other colors and maybe even a backup. I don’t just enjoy having the thing. The thing is suddenly not enough. I become afraid that I will run out of the thing or miss an opportunity to have other colors of the thing. I thought I was wiser than “those people” who act out of a scarcity mentality, but that’s what I’m doing. I am those people. Instead of focusing on and enjoying what I have I spiral out of control 🤦🏾‍♀️. I want to leave this behavior in 2018.

    Definitely going to keep a list of my 'probably would have definitely bought' stuff for next year! It's good motivation too to see how much I'll be saving as I go along too! I really appreciate the real talk about how buying these things would have left you in an uncomfortable place financially. Talking about money is so important to help realize what casual spending does to our future selves, and how it can accumulate so easily and un-noticeably. Thanks for everything you do and enjoy your Christmas with your family and friends! xx Here's to next year!

      Me too! I've already reached like 30$ that would have been a definite spend and 50$ that's a maybe. It's insane.... I'm also going through my things and trying to resell stuff (one item every day) which I've been open about on social media (minimalist_beast on insta in case anyone is interested) but not about my no-buy... And a full day into it (😂) I think it's the fear of failure... But I keep watching this and other videos and realised that I cannot fail because to fail is to mortgage my future (you have such a way with words)

    Loved this again. When you were talking about the Armani sticks and wanting more I thought to myself, "duh the ~goal~ is to want more," I could not even think of a single, alternative action to pursue so fixated on consumption my mental faculty lies.
    I think you dodged a bullet with the Dose of Colors palette. I can't speak of the quality of the eyeshadow, but I regularly experience the magical thinking of "it would be perfect and fill this (incredibly niche) gap" only to be disappointed and find another (infinitesimal) gap that needs filling. Also, excited about MATHS in videos. The perspective of financial acuity makes things more real for me. Cheers!

    I've been watching your videos after Christmas, and they've made me think about my own habits so much. I am not even a massive compulsive buyer, but hearing about your no-buy year has made me realize how little use I am getting out of some of the things I've bought, how my makeup collection sits mostly unused, growing old and how much of the makeup/skincare culture is about buying the latest thing, buying multiples of the same thing etc. I love travel and I love budgeting, but I don't earn a lot so your videos are inspiring me to think hard about how much I could save by tightening up my budget and saving that money for travel experiences and other wonderful longer lasting things.

    I don't know why we sabotage ourselves like that. Is it fear of change? I've been wanting to launch a small bussiness too, and I programmed it to 2019 in order to have some savings... I sarted this year with no credit card debt and now I've overspent in random stuff and still I manage to pay the bills. Where did this money I didn't have come from and why didn't it go to my project instead of a credit institution? I'm afraid of accounting the exact amount, I feel nauseated already. Thank you for placing this mirror in front of us.

  • @katarinadakay8200
    @katarinadakay8200 Před 5 lety +2

    This is so great - I think the fact that you don't remember everything you would have bought clearly actually underscores an important point you make a lot in your channel - the transience of material "wants" and how often what we think we want, doesn't actually make us happy when we get it (though for sure sometimes it does :)). But I've definitely experienced the "want to want" phenomenon and its pitfalls. It's also striking to me how the language you used in your earlier "what i would buy in 2019" videos was more focused on the look of the product and the idea of the product, and the way you describe things in this new video is more about how you will utilize things and how they fit into your life and current collection. It's amazing and I've found your videos to be so helpful in motivating me to take on this project.

    This is the first video of yours that I have watched. For a while I've been overwhelmed by my collection of makeup - there are things I bought because of hype, packaging, etc. and I realised that I wasn't using the things I really loved and I was feeling bad whenever I decluttered and I was feeling bad I couldn't afford to buy things I needed/knew I would genuinely enjoy that was more upmarket. In 2018 I had a general "decrease spending", and I reduced spending by 30%. Now I'm totally inspired by your channel to further limit my spending on makeup next year. Thanks so much for posting videos!!

  • @sedemm
    @sedemm Před 5 lety

    Hi Hannah! Congrats for your successful no buy year! You can’t imagine how much you inspired me for doing a no buy year myself!
    I have the Dior pallette you mentioned. I can easily say that you will not regret buying it, especilly for the highlight shades. I absolutely love the glow that they give to my cheeks. I also have a very very pale skin with yellow undertones. I put the champagne color on top of my cheekbones first, mixing it a little bit with my blush color. And then I put the white looking one on the highest points of my cheeks for an intensified and almost 3D glow. You can use them light handedly for a more natural look or heavy handedly for maximum glow. The product is so thin that you can’t mess with it even if you pile it on! It is beautiful!
    The blush color is a little bit too shimmery for my taste but I sometimes use it as a blush topper if I want extra glow. And I am not a bronzer person either to talk much about the bronzer shade. But I can say that it is too shimmery to be a bronzer as well. It would be a good eyeshadow color though, or a blush topper as well for muting down those blushes that are too bright and pigmented. But I once tried to mix blush and bronzer shades as a blush color and I loved it, just too shimmery and reflective for a blush. But it would definitely pop the cheeks on those dull skin days :)
    I hope my little review somewhat helps you to decide whether it worths buying or not. Greetings from Turkey!

I am working on a list of my ‘ideal’ makeup stash/collection/curation (hint- it’s much smaller with pretty specific items). It will be a while before I reach the goal but knowing I will have a collection of things that I will use and love will help the thought process when something outside the stash catches my eye (hopefully). Have a beautiful day!

    Merry Christmas, Hannah. I just wanted to let you know how you've changed my mindset. I was never a big beauty/skincare hoarder but wouldn't have hesitated to buy 2 or 3 lip colors or something similar at the pharmacy while picking up a prescription. Buying an eyeshadow palette was more of a deliberated purchase-still, I accumulated 3 or 4 and have since made a conscious effort to use them all. Shopping my modest stash is so satisfying! I've just unsubscribed from a couple of CZcams channels that I had enjoyed but realized that seeing drawers full of very expensive products languishing unused made me uncomfortable and rather irritated at the conspicuous consumption. So, thank you and Happy New Year!

    Super insightful and inspiring video, as usual. I also had the Melt Cosmetics Gemini palette on my wishlist earlier this year, and didn't end up buying it (I moved the amount it would have cost to buy and ship it into my savings account instead!). The next day I decided to use some of the olive green shadows I already own as a way of pacifying my desire, and...then I remembered that olive greens look horrible on me. Ha! It was a great lesson, and one I will try to remember as I embark on my own no-buy year in 2019!

    "I want to want what fenty releases" I can relate to this so much with some other brands! Specifically Nars, Too Faced, and Kylie Cosmetics. I'm a sucker for Nars branding though I don't own anything NARS because none of the acutal products speak to me enough, but I do own some Too Faced and Kylie and I love the formulas of what I do own. But you have inspired me, so I'm doing a 7 month no buy myself! From Christmas to my birthday, thanks so much for the inspiration, and I talked about you in my video announcing the no buy!

    I live in rural North Carolina (very rural - seriously a one stoplight town) so I know what you mean! Keeping a running list during the no-buy is such a good idea! Definitely making a note for myself! I am definitely an impulse shopper. Another trap I fall into is really good sales. I have learned how to buy makeup for really cheap by stacking sales, coupons and reward points. It sounds like that would be a positive but just because I can get the lipstick or whatever 75% off doesn’t mean I need to buy it!
    Also, I am a sucker for the same kind of mustardy/grungy greens too. I would have loved to get my hands on that Melt palette (their shadow formula is bomb). I do have the Colourpop Good Sport palette & really, really like it! I have been able to create some fun looks with it!

    An earrings tip: I too have trouble with them causing a reaction but now I paint the stem and the back of the butterfly with a clear nail varnish. There's a 'proper' product that you can buy which does the same thing but clear varnish works too and will no doubt be cheaper. Also, I got some antibiotic cream on eBay and used this if my piercings ever felt a bit inflammed when I began wearing earrings again due to having found a solution to the reaction, and that cleared everything in its tracks. I have no trouble with earrings now, I didn't wear them for years because the holes would seal up after wearing them because of the inflammation and getting them back in was so painful - basically having to re-pierce the hole with the earring stem - but this has solved the issue. Hope this helps. Great video, thank you

Then I almost re-bought it because I saw a CZcamsr loving on it, but talked myself out of it because I had actually tried it and didn't like it.

I think it probably looks better on people with a darker skin tone than me, I'm more light-medium. I think if they'd replaced one of the transition colors with a lighter shade it would have been better but overall I was also disappointed with how the shadows performed and how it was put together.

    @wendyraye Před 5 lety

    This is eye opening and a good idea. A little here and there ADDS UP. I know the feeling of looking for other colors instead of just enjoying the one(s) you have. For me, just off the top of my head:
    Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Memorize in Jean and Marie Antonette, 1 or 2 lipsticks, Film Star bronzer (I have too many bronzers to use up in my lifetime), Magic Away Concealer, Pillow Talk and Golden Goddess eye palettes, Hollywood Flawless Filter, and lipgloss
    Tom Ford Cocoa Mirage eyeshadow pallet and bronzer brush
    Anastasia Amrezy highlighter, dip brow, clear brow gel and brow brush
    Tatcha Silk Primer
    Hourglass luminous light powder, eyebrow gel in warm blonde, ethereal glow blush, mascara, foundation stick.
    Too Faced Peach Perfect foundation and powder
    Bobbi Brown shimmer brick in rose (I have it already and also pink quartz, but they’ve both shattered (every time) so I’m using them broken - wanted a new one. The rose is the perfect color on my cheeks and eyes - makes me look awake and I usually don’t wear rose colors on my eyes), 2 eyeshadows - Sable and Cement Sparkle (artist did my makeup for a Christmas party and used these, figured I couldn’t find exact dupes, but how often do I use glitter on my eyes at work?), lipsticks and glosses, serum eye corrector and concealer
    Drunk Elephant Vitamin C day serum (already have 2 bottles of serum from Dermadoctor from Costco - 2 bottles were cheaper than one regular price), Protini cream, Framboos
    Bum Bum cream set for the holiday
    Armani eyetint in cold copper
    Stila glitter and glow mini set (half off at Ulta, so $12.50! but they were sold out because I stalled)
    It Cosmetics LBD powder and contour (I don’t contour, so blush) brushes (again, half off at Ulta but I stalled)
    Fenty Gloss Bomb
    Leneige sleeping lip mask
    Milk makeup blur stick
    This is only what I can think of off the top of my head. I’m sure if I thought about the drugstore I’d think of many more dupes people swear by. I actually feel good listing it all out because not one single thing is a need. I have enough eyeshadow, blush, bronzer and highlighter to last the rest of my life so what would I do with my older stuff, and would I ever use it, if I bought all this stuff?? I’m going to start tracking things like extra phone cords, like I almost bought today.
    Yesterday Ulta had Lorac Unzipped Gold half off and I was tempted - super metallic shades that I don’t need, and I saw mixed reviews. I wouldn’t have been tempted AT ALL if it was normal price. Maybe that’s what I should ask myself during these sales from now on.

    I’ve thus far not been in any consumer debt from my shopping habits, but my saving habits were abysmal. This year I started a mantra that I am a “good saver”. I would just tell myself that over and over. From summer time and finding you, MUR, and starting my own no-buy to now I’ve managed to gave $4500, which is nothing short of spectacular for me. I also paid to get work done on my car that I had been putting off, so doing that maintenance definitely saved me money in the long run. I always used being self employed as my excuse for not saving “because everything went back into the business”. The test determined... that is a lie. I now know I am capable of saving money especially if I make it a priority.
    I will definitely take your advice to keep a list during my “19 in 2019 low buy year”. I have kept a wishlist this year but so many things have been added and subsequently deleted that it shames me to think of what I would have spent if I had only bought HALF of that.
