Guilty!

Although I've hardly bought any new makeup over this past year (apart from the essentials when I run out). Perks of work from home and no more social life

No, I've stopped all that. I was really into skin care and make up, spent a fortune, did a full face every day. Then that summer it was really hot I just stopped.

Now I cleanse, use Aveeno, do my brows,put some mascara on and I'm done. Even given up the lippy because of wearing a mask all the time.

I’ve found brands that work for me and I tend to buy in bulk a couple of times a year - cleanse/tone/moisturise daily - skin care is important but I don’t wear a full face of make up every day so I spend less on those products xx

I used to, but now it's very specific products for my age and skin type. They're too expensive to blind buy these days.

Ma ex used to ask me that whenever she tried on anything before we went on a night out, when I usually replied "Yes Dear, your bum looks big in everything", I awaited the inevitable slap round the back of the head

Face products I have figured out those I like and I stick to them. Make up I don't tend to wear that much so I don't spend much on it.

Hair products at the moment I've too many, trying to find the best products for my wavy curly hair is being a bit of a nightmare.

No, I'm very low maintenance. I use raw coconut oil for multiple purposes and make up wise generally either Barry M eye pencil or lipstick/lip gloss. Don't do foundation etc.

I used to get Birchboxes as it was nice getting new things to try but I'm wanting to be make more sustainable choices so stopped it

Not really.

I don't wear makeup.

I wash my face with a cloth and hot water then bung moisturiser on and shower with bar soap.

I worked for Revlon in the 70's and did all that cleanse, tone, moisturiser thing but soon realised I was a rip off.

Same. I'm happy and confident going anywhere without makeup (and more often than not I don't feel the need to wear it) but I also love getting dolled up and doing a full face. I like being creative and coming up with new looks, plus spending an hour or two on myself is a great form of self care.

Plus it's always noticed and appreciated and the compliments on my artistry make me feel good. For me, it's a win-win

I don’t wear much make up daily but do put a little on, makes me feel confident.

I spend a bit extra on skin care and have noticed my skin feeling better.

I could go mad buying things tbh, do love an eyeshadow palette or five
