It's always hard for me to strike that balance between giving everything their fair share of time and favouring the things that I really love the best.

I've got much worse at letting things go but I know realistically, I can't use it all before it reaches the end of its life. I know these leaves me with two options: not buy anymore makeup for several years or reduce down what I have.

A few months ago, I did something I never thought I could: I gave away (or, in the case of some items, threw away) more than 3/4 of my makeup. I'm glad I did. I felt the weight of all those products I never, or rarely, used, and as EJ said, felt bad about the money I'd wasted on things I didn't love.
