You’ve got a good variety in your collection without it being overwhelming. I always have to remind myself not to overconsume makeup products because I just won’t get through them and I don’t want things to go to waste 💕
you have a nice sized collection! i don’t think people should feel bad about having large or small collections. as long as what you have is something that brings you joy and doesn’t hinder you in any way. ie in space, money, etc. ✨ i’m not really a minimalist myself but it’s good to be reminded to be a more conscious shopper. not that there’s anything wrong with buying some new products and enjoying them, but that we should also regularly be reminded to use and enjoy what we currently have ❤
After finding my “look” which is mostly just the no makeup (makeup) look, I am now widdling the excess down to what works for me. I had gone overboard, mainly because I truly didn’t know what would actually work for me. It’s a process to find one’s “Goldilocks zone”, I look at like an education. Sometimes things need to be tried before you know, but now I want to reduce the decision fatigue and have purposeful items to choose from. I’m still working on it!! Lovely video, thank you for sharing your perfectly sized collection for YOU!!😊
totally get what you mean! for years i tried to be the colourful eyeshadow person and bought different palettes. turns out i rarely wear eyeshadow and when i do, it's mostly nudes and pinks. I had no business buying blue eyeshadows 😂 now I don't even look at colourful palettes.
I loved this video! I struggle watching big make up collections, I feel like it's a waste of money, space and make up obviously, but your collection is the perfect number of products! 💗
Oh one more thing: the blushes you said almost don't show up on your face might have an use case lol! They could be good transition shades for the more pigmented blushes, or any blush that deviates a bit from your skin undertone. I've found that actually helps me spend less time blending, and in turn, not have to worry as much about tapping off my foundation in the process
Please just enjoy your makeup products, it is nice to have some variety and colours in makeup collection. Don't hear what they say about you have to much makeup. And if u don't want to declutter just keep them because you bought it all with your own money not theirs money. Btw i really love your minimalist colllection, i watch it more than 2 times just so chill and your voice just so relaxing ❤❤❤
I love this! I don't really mind if people say I have too much or too little, but it's so interesting to see how a collection size is perceived so differently depending on each one's reference. I'm very happy with my collection at the moment and while I'm excited to try new products, I also love getting my money's worth out of what I currently have and rediscovering things I haven't used in a few months.
I have 48 products and I consider my collection huge :)) It is interesting how everything is relative, but I think you can consider yours minimal, it depends on how you feel. I really liked the video. I also wanted to share that I never declutter mine, excpet if something is off, because it serves as a buffer that keeps me from overconsumption. Makeup can last very long time, I have rouge allure velvet from chanel, bught in 2014, it is almost finished, but nothing is changed about it, it smells and performs perfectly. The time window on the packaging is the time they guarantee it will perform well, but it can last way longer.
Thanks for your comment! I like your view on no decluttering, it's so important to keep ourselves accountable before buying new things! I try to only declutter after giving products a fair chance. If I can't make it work at all, I get rid of it, and it's usually passed on to someone who wants it (friends and family). I've also received things other people were decluttering and they've turned out to be products I loved. One person's clutter can be another person's treasure!
@annavictoria0490 I feel the same way; I also have very limited space so hanging on to products is not an option. It all has to fit in a box, and I’d it doesn’t then it’s just crowded and I can’t see what’s in there
Love seeing your minimal (or should I say sensible) makeup collection!!Can’t watch the large ones anymore. They always made me feel either uncomfortable or inadequate. I’m so mad because I just treated myself to an expensive mascara and I don’t like it at all. Now I’m going to have to force myself to use it as it cost so much 😢 I’m definitely going to do a makeup inventory tonight … feeling inspired ❤x
I get what you feel about the máscara. That Saie concealer is driving me crazy, I'm forcing myself to use it at least until it expires before decluttering but I really don't like it 😞
hi! in case you are getting rid of certain products because of the pressure some people might have put on you, it’s ok having that amount of makeup, it’s not too much and you don’t need to justify yourself for keeping certain products. Maybe it’s not the case, but I felt like telling you anyway. 💕💕
I love these videos! I will never have a minimal collection due to my preference, but I am committed to only purchasing what I will use. Its such a bummer to grab something and realize it doesn't work for you.
As long as you use what you have I say go for a larger collection! But yes, it's tough when you have a full sized product that you're not enjoying. It's teaching me to do a lot more research and ask for samples when I can instead of just ordering online!
Lovely collection 😊 You could always transfer the bullet of one of your other lipsticks into the packaging of the Chanel, that way you can still keep the nice case but with a fresh lipstick inside.
In the end we gotta have a few products for each function unless we're willing to compromise the finish, variety, our expensive products, our time etc. so it's a bit of a journey, right? I hope you have a pleasant one and congrats for keeping at it and for your collection. If you really want to wear that lighter Shiseido foundation some time soon, I suppose you could try mixing it with darker products on the back of your hand
I have a collection about your size, but I have a different distribution of products. So fun to watch! I have one blush, but 4 foundations, different distribution of products. I do try more products, but if I don’t love them I get rid of them. I live in an urban area with free piles all around, i wrote note that the products were hardly used and the date I brought it to the free pile (it’s usually gone in an hour)
👏👏👏👏 so good to watch a makeup products video thats so simple and good at the same time❤ i wish i was like you, but i have lots of makeup and always end up using the same products😂 not possible to declutter, i just love love love all my make up collection. Maybe one day i'll be like you: rational, pratical and sensible. I wish i could have just a small, solid and nice collection like you have.😊😊 watching from Portugal❤
Nothing wrong with having a bigger collection! Maybe once you run out of your favorites you can shop your stash and use your collection more! Obrigada 💕
This is a great size collection. Mine is a similar size but I don’t use bronzer or concealer. I have less complexion items and more eye shadows. I too like variety in my lip colors.
my collection is about the same size as yours and it's a great amount of products for me! I also have ended up with a few concealers that don't work for me and I still find use for them as eyeshadow primer or as a mixing medium if I want to lighten up a blush or lip color, could be something to try if you want to get creative!
Hi Anna, I really enjoy ur videos, I only have 2 makeup products cuz I have allergic skin lit so I can't use much makeup, but I love small collections like yours, I was wondering si tambien hablas español ya que veo que algunos productos que usas se que los venden en mercadona como las toallitas limpia gafas haha, thank u for inspiring to go clean our space aka vanity 💖🌟
Thank you this vid is relatable its good to see a collection which is in between. Just a word on your liquid eyeliner, makeup does expure and can cause infections - eye infections are particularly nasty. Maybe you could buy a new one when you find yourself fancying doing liquid eyeliner?
I like to pretend that I would like to have a super minimalist collection with only 2-3 elements. However, in reality, I am not capable of it. However, I have significantly reduced by decreasing the size of my makeup bag gradually.
I think 2-3 products wouldn't be a "collection" but rather just essentials. A lot of people use just one of each category and are done with it! I think collection means you like to explore different formulas, shades or finishes, and that's where you can have a smaller or larger collection. As long as you are using what you have and enjoying it, have the collection you want!
I use shade 10 light and it's a pretty good neutral. It's not too yellow or too pink so it works for me (I'm cool toned but can get away with neutral as long as it's not too yellow!)
You’ve got a good variety in your collection without it being overwhelming. I always have to remind myself not to overconsume makeup products because I just won’t get through them and I don’t want things to go to waste 💕
Exactly, some items take years to even hit pan on, so I try to keep my stuff on rotation to get use out of everything and not get bored!

Exactly! Shop what you want as long as you're getting your money's worth of what you have 💕

I'm at that same step lol. It's a necessary one if you really want to take your makeup game to the next level! Now, to wear all that good stuff down 😅
I loved this video! I struggle watching big make up collections, I feel like it's a waste of money, space and make up obviously, but your collection is the perfect number of products! 💗
Yeah I get the feeling, I get overwhelmed thinking of all the money just sitting there in the form of makeup going bad 😞

lovely collection! in my opinion it's not too small and not too big either, good job!

If the chanel lipstick doesn't smell or look weird - i might still be ok! There's good preservatives in lipstick.
I love these videos! I will never have a minimal collection due to my preference, but I am committed to only purchasing what I will use. Its such a bummer to grab something and realize it doesn't work for you.

Love that idea! I might have to try that out 💕

Oh sadly we don't have that in my area 😢 I wish there were ways to properly disinfect makeup to donate but I understand they don't want to risk it
👏👏👏👏 so good to watch a makeup products video thats so simple and good at the same time❤ i wish i was like you, but i have lots of makeup and always end up using the same products😂 not possible to declutter, i just love love love all my make up collection.

Oh I'm just so terrible at eyeshadow and don't really enjoy doing it so I stopped buying palettes and just kept the one
my collection is about the same size as yours and it's a great amount of products for me!

thanks! I love repurposing makeup so it doesn't go to waste
The meows 🥹
haha he can't help it, he has to be the center of attention!

Soy española! Es fácil identificarnos cuando aparece algún producto de mercadona jajaja
Thank you this vid is relatable its good to see a collection which is in between. Just a word on your liquid eyeliner, makeup does expure and can cause infections - eye infections are particularly nasty. Maybe you could buy a new one when you find yourself fancying doing liquid eyeliner?
I have lass then you but i think when you use it and like make up than its totally fine. Becaus you dont have an abundance of make up.❤
This is so wild to watch after seeing marta sofias. Hers is endless

Hello. Can I ask which shade of Essence concealer you use? And is it a good match for you?
I use shade 10 light and it's a pretty good neutral. It's not too yellow or too pink so it works for me (I'm cool toned but can get away with neutral as long as it's not too yellow!)
@@pannedbyanna thank you very much for a reply 🤗
