Hi Everyone!
Today, I’m checking in with my makeup inventory to show you how much progress I’ve made since my Mid-Year Makeup Inventories (click the links below):
Primers & Foundations | Bronzers | Mascaras | Blushes | Highlighters
I finished and decluttered half of the items I had in July; mostly decluttered.
CURRENT MAKEUP INVENTORY

Primers: 13 (started with 12 in July. I finished quite a few, but bought new ones. I also moved some products from other categories, i.e. what I once considered a face mist was changed to primer).
Setting/Finishing Powders: 8 (started with 5 – Don’t ask me how I have more than I started with…I don’t know how that happened)
Illuminating Powders/Creams: 3 (started with 6)

Foundations: 7 (started with 13 – The foundations in my current collection are almost all different from the 13 I had in July. I finished a few and decluttered a few)
Concealers/Colour Correctors: 5 (started with 11 – Unfortunately, I had to throw out 2 that had gone bad and I finished the others)
Contour: 3 (didn’t have any contour products in July)
Bronzers: 3 (started with 6)
Blushes: 5 (started with 13 – I decluttered quite a few blushes)
Highlighters: 9 (started with 14)

Brows: 3 (started with 3 – I finished the three brow products from July and have since bought new brow products)
Eyeshadow Pans/Sticks/Creams: 60 (started with 129- I was quite ruthless when it came to decluttering eyeshadows)

Eyeliners: 9 (started with 12)
Mascaras: 2 (started with 10 – I’m quite proud that I made it down to 2)

Lipstick: 7 (started with 28 – I finished a few and decluttered quite a lot. Luckily, some were MAC products, so I could Back to MAC them)
Lip Liners: 5 (started with 7)
Lip Glosses/Tints: 4 (started with 10)
Makeup Removers: 1 (started with 13)
Perfume: 4 (started with 5 – the one I finished was a sample)
Nail Polish: 19 (started with 43 – I was pretty ruthless with the nail polish too. I had a lot of old ones that were drying out)
TOTAL: 170 (started with 340 – I finished and decluttered 170 items in the past 5 months. Even though I cut the number in half, some of the products weren’t originally in my collection because I finished a bunch, but then bought something else to replace them)
I haven’t bought any new products in the following categories since taking Inventory of my collection in July:
- Blush
- Bronzer
- Highlighter (I have a new one, but I didn’t buy it for myself…so it doesn’t count)
- Illuminating Powders
- Eyeshadows
- Lip products (lipstick, balm, gloss, tint, liners)
- Makeup Remover
- Perfume
- Nail Polish
MAKEUP INVENTORY GOALS
You’ll remember from my Makeup Goals post, that I set a number for each category of what I should aim for and I said that I wanted to cut my collection in half (which I did!). I hope to continue decreasing the number of items on my collection and maybe reach 100 items by the end of 2019.
