I really wanted the new Lisa Eldridge Desert Gleam palette... until I read the comments. 💬
In this video, I walk you through my real-time decision-making process as I try to resist yet another gorgeous makeup launch. From swatch goblin urges to rational reflections, this is an honest look at what happens when beauty lovers try not to buy something.
We talk about:
• The new Lisa Eldridge eyeshadow palette & lipsticks
• What makes a product tempting
• How to tell if something is really unique to your collection
• Creating your own DIY dupes
• The power of community in resisting impulse buys
Whether you're on a no-buy, a low-buy, or just trying to be a little more intentional, I hope this helps you hit pause before the purchase. And if you did buy it, don't worry—I’ll be living vicariously through you.
