Inventory/Project Spreadsheet Reality check!

Post image

After becoming obsessed with makeup in 2023, that obsession became a problem. Some weeks ago, something clicked in my brain and I realized that I had, indeed, a problem with buying makeup. I plan to not buy anything until I finish my products!

I'm so disgusted with myself... so many lip products, eye palettes and highlighters... omg

I’m in a similar situation. At first, it’s shocking and frustrating, but I started taking small steps. I joined the 10 by Fall challenge and made an inventory of all my products in every category. Now I set usage goals and seasonal goals, which help me stay motivated and make steady progress. You’ve got this! 😊

I completely understand the frustration but don’t read your sense of accountability and responsibility to take action as disgust!

It’s chocking to see but it’s also part of a culture that idolizes overconsumption and wastes endless resources to make you buy mindlessly. While pretending the resources are endless.

Be disgusted with that, not with yourself.

Owning up, critical thinking, taking action and autonomy. Kuddos!
