Extreme makeup declutter. I finally decluttered about 80%-90% of my makeup. I tidied my space and it actually changed my life. Decluttering keeps your space clean. How to check if your makeup is still good.

If you don't know/met me and wondering why do I have so much makeup... hi, I'm Anne. And my old channel was very beauty-focused and I had the opportunity to be social media beauty content creator at one point in my life. I am eternally grateful to have experienced different opportunities because of this and be gifted with the majority of these products you see in this video for consideration as part of brand/PR mailings. I recently had a change of heart and decided that I wanted to go back to my old corporate life. Since then, my relationship with makeup has drastically changed. All of the things became too much for one person to have. I realized that I don't even use 5% of the products that I have and they started to take over my space.

I was pretty ruthless this time compared to the other countless times I've tried to declutter this room (in my previous channel). Even though I have been practicing minimalism for a few years now, I had a hard time keeping up with the incoming mail that was showing up in my doorstep. And since I was almost never home pre-pandemic, I was able to hide the clutter in the 2nd room that was once my beauty room. It was out of sight, out of mind. When the lockdown started and I started working from home, I was forced to deal with the clutter since I saw it every single day. Being at home the majority of the time, the excess stuff was making my space feel a little claustrophobic.

Knowing that I will not be using any of these within the next few months with the pandemic restricting any sort of social activities, I only kept the ones I know I'll use within the next year. There was no point in keeping any backups. I got rid majority of my "makeup collection". It was hard letting some of them go because of the guilt/attachment I had. But I had to be kind myself and learn to gracefully let them go to make space physically and mentally.

Since most of these products have been with me for several years and have long expired, I made sure to responsibly dispose of them by taking them to a SAFE/hazardous waste disposal center since I didn't just want to throw them in the trash. Some of the products I've received more recently, I was able to share with some of my friends or have given them to my friend who works at a hospital to see if anyone would be interested in them.

I tried to be really conscious of the products I gave away. Even though most of them are unopened, I wouldn't want to give away anything that's past their shelf-life.

Below are the two websites I used to check some of the products whenever I was unsure when I received the product. For the most part, I had kept an inventory in my Excel spreadsheet of the things that I've received in the mail as I got them. Yes, this is not a normal thing to do. And I honestly think that I'm the only one who did this. But helped me keep track of when I can toss them out. These websites have been a useful tool for me, but also please do try to use your discretion and best judgment as well.

Four years later, I'm so glad that this room is finally a livable a space for me. It's been a few months now since I started decluttering this room and I'm happy to report that this is the longest I've kept this room clean.
