I love the videos that are "what I won't buy!" What a lovely, radical countermeasure to the constant pressure from all sides to buy things to improve your life!

@jessicaharrison4719 2 года назад

Things I won't buy this year: Any more audio equipment until I figure out how to use what I have better Any more makeup unless I run out of a specific thing, i.e., if I run out of my only shade of eyeshadow that I use nearly every time I do my makeup, I can buy it again, but if I run out of my favorite concealer, I have a few more that I can use mixed until I run out of those. Any more exercise equipment until I start using what I have more regularly. Any more cleaning chemicals until I work through the ones I have (I have a bad habit of buying cleaning chemicals to get motivated to clean). Any more facial cleansers. I should be able to have enough to get me through the year. If I run out of the ones I have, of course I will buy a new one, but no more trying them out. Any more nail polish. I do enjoy painting my nails, but I have everything I like to wear and a few for my boys too. Any more candles until I use the ones I have up. Especially summer scents, I know I won't burn almost any candles in the summer. Any more fragrances unless I remove at least 2 (through using them up or selling them) from my collection first. I use most of them, but I already have some I don't use. Any more big kitchen appliances. I don't have the counter space for anything else! Any more video games. I have plenty! I think any time we make a conscious choice to only consume the things that we want to, instead of buying due to anxiety that we won't be good enough, we are making a radical choice. If anyone is still reading, you are enough as you are, and anything you WANT to change about yourself will be more likely to change if you commit to changing habits rather than changing equipment.

I'm glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for sharing your list! We have a lot of similarities in our lists too👍

I have been on a no buy since Dec 17th. What I do is ask myself, “if I buy this thing will another thing I already bought go to waste?” Everything I have is great individually. The problem comes in when there are so many. They start to look like junk. The goal is to make each item special and give it a place of honor. I am not sure how long I will need to be on a no buy to get there, but after a month, nothing has really changed. I use up things at a glacial pace.

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

i definitely agree with you Lara. Things can feel less special and the reason you bought that thing in the first place can be lost. I too feel like i use things up quite slowly and i know at times i foud myself over-using items, which i don't want either.

I have been checking recipe books out from the library. I copy down the few recipes that appeal to me and then return the book when I am done reading it. That has helped me a ton with cookbooks! I also have a binder and clear inserts that I put recipes that I use frequently into. Some of my recipes are printed from the internet, some are from magazines, and others I photocopied from library books. They are easier to deal with this way.

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

i love the library for cookbooks too! Great suggestion

@AnaRodriguez-wn8qq 2 года назад

I need to start doing this! I only ever check out regular books

@zofia2750 2 года назад

I started a no-buy / low-buy this year after realising that I actually love most of the stuff I own and that within the last two years I managed to buy or replace all items I was missing or they were not working out for me. With that mindset, the main items for me to avoid buying are: clothing, makeup & skincare (apart from replacing e.g. foundation if it ends and I have nothing else I can use instead), cookware and home items/furniture. I genuinely believe I can get by (or actually - live an amazing life) with what I already own. I want to recognise the privilege and take good care of my possessions :)

I have 2 nail polish s red for winter Xmas pink for spring summer I stick to Charlotte Tilbury for going out best makeup drugstore for every day just sticking to two brands and just repurchase from them when used up x

@joanowens7941 2 года назад

I haven't bought candles in many years. Don't miss them. Someone gave me two candles as a gift last year. that's plenty for a while.

@imaginarycosmetics 2 года назад

Some of the point you made in this video reminded me why I don't connect with a lot minimalism content. I think both maximalism and minimalism are often fed by the desire for perfection, which is unhealthy since it's never achievable. I really like that contentment is your focus for this year. I'm the same when it comes to makeup products, there are certain shades I want to use in certain finishes, but I don't need the exact color (or even similar colors) in different formulas. There are some formulas I prefer over others, but as long as I can make something work for me, it doesn't matter that the formula isn't "perfect". I've only paid for two or three months of Netflix, whenever a new season of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina aired. Generally I don't watch a lot of tv shows or movies. I don't have a list of things I don't want to buy this year, I have everything I need and I've always been very frugal, so it's easy to talk myself out of buying things if I'm ever tempted. I actually have to talk my boyfriend out of buying stuff more often than myself 😂

😂 I love this for you!

@megdrummond-wilson824 2 года назад

This is a great video, I love hearing what other people are deciding to hold back on buying and their reasons! I'm not going to buy more candles until I burn all the ones I currently have. Im probably also going to try and refrain from buying pantry storage, since like you said I have amassed a huge collection of empty containers.

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

I like hearing that too! I feel you on the containers 😂

@gypsylife7822 Год назад

I am always tempted to buy nice matching containers to have the “perfect” pantry but refrained since I believe it is really wasteful

@booknerdcatlady 2 года назад

Blush is a personal weakness of mine as well. I started shopping my stash a few years ago to ease the need for more, but I fell off that habit after my wfh year. Now I’m trying to learn to love my collection again and stop seeking more.

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

I feel you on that gricel. I've fallen off on loving my things and am working to love them and use them up!

@lanejones962 Год назад

Your videos are so helpful, thought out, and authentic to my current experience with shopping addictions/makeup obsessions on the road to more contentment and less consumerism in that instant gratification regard. 🥰🥰💝✨ “my stuff is great; let me use it.” Just perfect 👌🏻

Yes cookbooks! I thrift them saying oh it’s $2-$5 if I use one or two recipes that is great. I always end up just googling recipes because I prefer the reviews and that I can copy and paste things in a list. Great catch, i’m ditching cookbook forever I’ve made that mistake for years!

Subscribed. Your channel isn’t the channel that I want, it’s the channel that I need.

@AnaRodriguez-wn8qq 2 года назад

I have really been enjoying your videos since I found your channel a few days ago! It’s great motivation to keep trying to consume less. I also realize I’ve already come a long way. Buying make up was my biggest hobby when I first started working and at some point I ended up w thousands of dollars worth of make up I was barely using bc I didn’t actually prioritize doing my make up in the morning before work. I regret having spent so much but I’m glad I started decluttering what I didn’t use years ago and that I now have a very manageable amount of items I actually use on a regular basis.

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

That's amazing to hear Ana!

Hitting pan on an eyeshadow...will I live to see the day?! It feels like I've owned my eyeshadows for like 5-6 years and still looks like new!

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

Me too! I had so many palettes 4+ Yeats old and looking way too new 👀👀👀

@AnaRodriguez-wn8qq 2 года назад

I only own one eyeshadow palette atm and somehow it still looks new- anyone remember Tarte in Bloom 😅? I got really into Pat McGrath for a min, got her rose quad but then gave it to my teen sibling bc I just barely used it n my sib does their make up every day.

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

I have that palette too and bought it fairly recently (in 2019). That's so nice, giving Pat McGrath to your sibling!

@SaskiasaChristkind 2 года назад

A few years ago I had to travel for work every Weekend! So I put a small make up bag together. Because of this I reached the bottom of the rough, Highlighter, bronzer and eyeshadow very quickly.

Yay! Glad you're enjoying the channel and happy to have you here 😀

@exomake_mehorololo 2 года назад

Your videos really are so awesome and helpful. Also really gets me thinking! I have quite a few different scented oils and candles; I should really use them up and enjoy them before I buy any more. Same for jewelry... I got so so many earrings: I should make an effort to actually wear them and switch it up. I think overall... it's important to realise what we already have

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

Totally agree, and I'm glad my videos are helpful 😊

Recent subscriber here! I’ve been watching your videos for weeks now and I feel we are walking similar paths! Im on a no buy year (second attempt) but my most problematic category is nail polish FOR SURE! So I truly am hoping to finish at least 3 this year. Another rule I have is I’ll only buy clothing made by independent designers from Colombia (where I’m from). And since I leave in the states… I can only purchase clothing if I’m in Col for Christmas! Good luck to everyone doing projects this year! Me… Im starving for BALANCE!

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

Thanks for sharing what's on your list! I'm totally rooting for you!

@AnaRodriguez-wn8qq 2 года назад

Not buying nail polish is a struggle for me too! I wish I hadn’t bought so much all at once a few years ago. Trying to use up my collection before the formula gets gross. A new thing I’m trying is painting my nails even when I don’t have time to do all the filing and cuticle care beforehand. I realized I was being too much of a perfectionist and that led to me not even painting my nails for weeks

@joanowens7941 2 года назад

I haven't worn makeup in 40 years!!! I love life without makeup and I used to be really into it.

I relate to the jar problem! I was saving so many but not using them. I sent them to recycling last week, they were taking up way too much space. There will always be more jars i think... I'm not buying any clothes this year. I spent the last couple of years trying to create the "perfect" capsule wardrobe for me and now I give up 😆 it is what it is. I have budgeted for some pumps in March, because I don't have quite what I want in that department. I've chosen them already. I don't think of shoes as accessories anymore, they have to be something that's healthy for my feet and I'll willingly pay for that.

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

Wow, ok, so many similarities!! I recycled my jars this past weekend too. I had soooo many and so many weird shapes tooo. I even saved bottles because...? I especially relate to your wardrobe comment. I keep trying to build the "perfect" capsule but im not sure it ever will be perfect.

@EmmaLemmon 2 года назад

@@shawnaripari I feel much better about giving up the jars now ☺ I'm beginning to think that the search for the "perfect" anything is a big time and money suck. And a good way to be permanently dissatisfied... Enjoying your channel very much by the way!

@shawnaripari 2 года назад

Definitely agree and I'm glad to hear that!
