Jesus take the wheel. My beauty spending has gotten out of control! How do you know when you have a slight problem? When you start accumulating boxed products in random places (purses, gym bags, makeup storage, etc). I have so many eyeshadow palette refills that still haven't seen the palette! Yeah, it's like I keep buying and buying, but failing in actually trying and using the products (on a consistent basis). So, for the next 90 days, I am on a no buy mission. Sure, I might miss out on some of the makeup collections but really, I have more than enough makeup to keep me busy. The same goes for hair products. I seriously doubt some new fab conditioner will be limited edition and disappear forever during this 90 day challenge.
Oh, and in case you're wondering why I chose 90 days? Well, I'm on track for a raise in June, which I should hopefully "see" in July! But, I'm also hoping that this challenge will help me to foster better spending habits and fiscal responsibility.
So, have you ever done a "no buy" challenge? What tips do you have to resist the urge to splurge?
Until next time, be well...

This is an awesome idea! I may actually join you. :-) I actually gave up unnecessary spending for the Lenten season last year.
