I have gotten rid of SOOOO much stuff thanks to you. I went from being a collector to just wanting to get rid of stuff. I have also started all natural skin care among other things thanks to you. Seriously you're an inspiration, I don't watch any other you tubers any more! Oh...and I swear my husband's and I's next vacation is going to have to be Maui...it look's so amazing!!
hey christine, i just wasnted to say that your videos are so inspiring and these are the videos i look forward to the most here on youtube. the fact that you donate so much stuff to the womens shelter shows how great of a person you are. Im going to be moving in a few months and ive been purging a lot lately thanks to these videos. Best of luck with the move!
I'm moving too and you inspired me to have my own beauty room. All is white, black and fushia-grey, so calm. You motivate me to organize my room. Continu your great work. Love you! xoxo
Your videos helped me cypher thru all my stuff when i was moving this past week me and my family are getting back on the road to travel for my hubbys jobs and you have to learn to live with mostly just your basics , your videos really made me feel so comfortable with letting go of possesions , i feel so relieved and less stressed now that ive done this i feel like i can breathe again , over the past year and a half i became so materialistic ty for ur vids it has helped me tremendously, luv yas
I have so many videos to watch in my subscriptions but as soon as I saw there was one from you I jumped on it straight away!! I love your organisational videos! x
This is so motivational--I always go and clean something out after I watch one of your cleaning out/decluttering videos! You are more inspiring than you realize, Christine:) xoxo
You have completely inspired me to cut back on buying unnecessary things! I have been focusing on using up what I have and simplifying the products in my life :) I hope you and Michael have a wonderful trip to Asia! -Jill
I love when you do these vids. They are really inspiring. They are being organized and fitting things into the spots you have or reducing clutter with out just buying more boxes to put stuff in YKWIM? Good luck with your move. I wish all nail polish bottles fit in the pink glossy boxes!
I don't know why, but this is all so exciting: your move, trip and then you come back and basically start all over. You and Michael keep life interesting, you've got some courage there, but I'm pretty sure everything will work out well for the two of you.
Okay ready for it... Our last day in this house is June 2nd. We leave for Southeast Asia June 3rd. We're moving our belongings into storage as we speak because I don't want to pay rent and bills while we're gone traveling all summer. We're coming back to Maui in September. After that I'm unsure what the future holds. We'll either get another place here on Maui or we'll take off traveling again. ;D
Some simplicity is always better. :) I definitely wish I could clean out things like you could! I have a hard time getting rid of my childhood things because it brings back memories for me. :
Hi Christine!! I'm excited for your upcoming travels! I wanted to let you know we just got home from our honeymoon in Maui & WOW...we had the best time ever!! We did a bunch of stuff you've talked about & absolutely loved it! We stayed on Kaanapali Beach, snorkeled Black Rock, traveled the Road to Hana & saw the Seven Sacred Pools, snorkeled Molokini & swam with a turtle at Turtle Town, & did some shopping at Whaler Village & the Shops at Wailea! You are so lucky to live in such a paradise!
Such an inspiration! I now ask myself all the time: do I ever reach for this? Have I gotten my use out of it ? Too much stuff just weighs you down. Love that you share your quest to simplify and streamline.
Your cleanout videos are my absolute favourite! :D we recently moved into a new home after living there for 23 years, so you can only imagine the amount of stuff accumulated over the years and I threw out and gave away so much, but I dont miss any of it, its quite empowering actually...it made me feel so much lighter :) and us indians we don't really give up on things unless they give up on us :P So watching your videos has inspired me so much to reevaluate my items. Keep them coming. Snehal
Oh yeah, that totally sucks she got dengue. You can get it here too if you're not careful. I think that's where our being use to living in the humid tropics will be to our benefit. Definitely looking forward to taking you guys with me! :)
Seriously. I am cleaning and packing to move to Maui as you are cleaning and packing to leave maui. I know the feeling of liking it better without all the stuff. I have been enjoying living with less and honestly I miss very little. Cant wait to be in Maui using all the tricks and tips I learned from you. Such as coconut oil can be used for many things. I want to start living more natural and healthy! Thanks for being so inspiring!
I'm moving too. I too donated bags of clothes and shoes and toys and much more. Thanks for sharing! It is in fact amazing how much stuff one can accumulate over time! I say less stuff, more energy to flow around!
You got me in the mood to declutter my wardrobe, and I have the money to do so now, which is awesome. I just want to go to the bare basics for both work and home, some things I've kept since... More than 3 years and I really just have no need for them, it's getting a bit much. My cosmetics are pretty down packed, but I just want to go natural and spare my skin. I tried just plain coconut oil for sunning and now I'm just burnt in some areas but no regrets, totally worth it. Thanks!
You sound just like me. I got rid of a bunch of stuff to simplify my life and I can't even remember what I got rid of now. You are so smart to get rid of as much as possible before you move!
► Christine, I am a cancer survivor..after my cancer I gave away so much stuff, I simplified my life and this year I turned 40 and I feel like the less I have the better I feel.. I have all that I need and I try to keep just one of each.. if I love it then I buy another when its finished... Funny how circumstances and maturity make you look at life and "things" so differently....♥♥ cant wait to see your new place !
Hey Christine! Could you do another video showing us how you got all your makeup into that one storage area as well as an updated inventory? So excited to go to Thailand with you!! :)
As for oils, I enjoy all of them except Lemon Myrtle which burns like hell. I'm also letting go of ones such as Geranium, Carrot Seed, and others... some because I don't like the scent and others only because I don't use them often enough. I don't want them sitting around and going to waste while I'm gone.
Christine.....I just scrolled thru and found your reply: leaving Maui for 3 months to travel! I am hopeful you will continue to post videos for us during that time! You are my favorite on UA-cam!
I love watching these videos! I recently went through all my body washes and lotions and got rid of a bunch of them. That was hard because I have a lot of Bath and Body Works and love their stuff. Today I went through my shoes. I tried to go through my makeup, but that was really hard. Haha. I have a basket of stuff i'm going to try again and if i'm not in love with it, it's going out.
I agree, your videos are refreshing and soothing for me as I live in a cluttered apartment with way too many posessions. Im trying to part with things....you make it look so easy. Whenever I go to a store and think I want to buy yet another purse I think... what would Christine do?? :)
I loved your setup,I'm kinda sad it's going to change,but of course I think the new one would be even nicer..I wish you would do videos when you are in your new residence showing us your new vanity and wardrobe.can't wait.
I hope you vlog from southeast asia! I am so excited for you!! Your declutter videos totally inspire me! I missed your blog sale & am super sad :( as i'm not on twitter as much as I used to be.
Hi Christine! I have to catch up on all your vids! I've missed so much. I had a baby 8 weeks ago! You always get me motivated to clean and declutter! Hope all is well :D
Hi Christine; I so enjoyed your cleaning/packing vid. ☺ What type of vehicle will you be traveling in? A RV by chance... So you'll still be able to make vids? Good luck on your new adventures!! ☺
All week i have been watching your videos and have been distracted from getting on and doing anything lol. Hope the move goes well :) xxp.s thank you for your great vids!! Xxx
You have inspired me so much! I see your style has change...no more pinky, leopard, glitter ...i mean less of does..more subdue colors for decor.... more clean, fresh type decor. I am happy that I find in my country a site that sells some Desert Essence products...that I know from you are nice....and more natural. Thanks and good luck!
It would be cool to see what ppl on your travels use as natural products too. I'd love for you to find out if you have time :))) Im so excited for your trip. I know you'll have a great time. You are in good company. you and michael are amazing ppl. Love that you dont just give into the crazy hectic life that ppl give no thoughts about. u are living life and loving it!! good for you guys. makes me happy to know there r ppl like u out there.
hey christine :) i love all your videos, especially your natural beauty products, diy, and decluttering videos. its so amazing to find someone to relate to my interests. in a world of consumerism that tells us to buy buy buy more more more=to hoarding or packrats. and to use natural alternative remedies in a country that promotes synthetic and chemical drugs and food. u
You and Michael must have saved up a lot of money to afford a 3 month vacation! Good luck on your trip, be safe and I look forward to videos from Asia!
Thank you so much for your videos! They are so motivating I've watched them several times and every time I watch them I am able to purge! It feels so good!! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
She's going to continue being on YT. She mentioned on a previous video that they are moving to another house but still in Maui; however they're taking a trip to Thailand in the near future and she's taking us with her! Lol :) Love u Christine! You are a great person!
hope to see you on the road! will be traveling through india from mid june to mid july :))) have a great time on your grand adventure! hope you post videos during your travels
I have been useing the Makeup forever mat velvet plus. I really like it. However I am wanting a animal ingredient free foundation. Could you research if Makeup forever matvelvet plus is animal free. If it is not would you give recommendation for a good dupe. I have been looking at Vitacost Ecco Bella Foundation online. Wondering what you think--Rebecca
I'm jealous you have such a small one! I never feel satisfied just because I have bought something, I can tell you that. Belongings just weigh me down. I feel like I give so much away and I there is still so much stuff.
Would love to see videos of what you are packing for your trip. Be careful that your lipsticks don't melt in storage. P.S. Didn't you just buy that bathing suit to be given away in the pink chest? Have a wonderful trip Christine and Michael.

You do inspire me to CLEAN Christine....so looking forward to seeing your new place. Enjoy your holidays xx
I found your videos while cleaning my bedroom. Thanks for that, you are my inspiration!!! Lots of hugs!!!
Your cleanout videos are my absolute favourite! :D

You have inspired me to clean out my room also and organize it for the first time in a long time. Thank you.
You got me in the mood to declutter my wardrobe, and I have the money to do so now, which is awesome. I just want to go to the bare basics for both work and home, some things I've kept since... More than 3 years and I really just have no need for them, it's getting a bit much. My cosmetics are pretty down packed, but I just want to go natural and spare my skin.

I love these videos of yours! This morning I saw it and I got excited to watch it after school
you are doing such a good job!! i may do the same today bc are moving next month
You sound just like me. I got rid of a bunch of stuff to simplify my life and I can't even remember what I got rid of now. You are so smart to get rid of as much as possible before you move!

congrats on everything, you're living such an amazing way that more people should try!!!
Sure! Will do love! xoxo
You inspired me so much that today I did a declutter my room. Just want to say thank you!
I came to your channel when you had less than 20,000 subbies. I can't believe you're almost to 100,000!!!! So glad for you.
Hey Christine! Could you do another video showing us how you got all your makeup into that one storage area as well as an updated inventory? So excited to go to Thailand with you!! :)
As for oils, I enjoy all of them except Lemon Myrtle which burns like hell. I'm also letting go of ones such as Geranium, Carrot Seed, and others... some because I don't like the scent and others only because I don't use them often enough. I don't want them sitting around and going to waste while I'm gone.
Christine.....I just scrolled thru and found your reply: leaving Maui for 3 months to travel! I am hopeful you will continue to post videos for us during that time! You are my favorite on UA-cam!
You inspired me to downsize my closet I got rid of 22 bags of clothes and shoes. Downsizing is good for you. Videos like this are good for people :)
I love watching these videos! I recently went through all my body washes and lotions and got rid of a bunch of them. That was hard because I have a lot of Bath and Body Works and love their stuff. Today I went through my shoes. I tried to go through my makeup, but that was really hard. Haha. I have a basket of stuff i'm going to try again and if i'm not in love with it, it's going out.
i love these spring cleaning videos! They are so refreshing :)
I agree, your videos are refreshing and soothing for me as I live in a cluttered apartment with way too many posessions. Im trying to part with things....you make it look so easy. Whenever I go to a store and think I want to buy yet another purse I think... what would Christine do?? :)
I loved your setup,I'm kinda sad it's going to change,but of course I think the new one would be even nicer..I wish you would do videos when you are in your new residence showing us your new vanity and wardrobe.can't wait.
I would like to know out of all of those oils, which ones you decided to keep. :) you should do a video on it!!
I hope you vlog from southeast asia! I am so excited for you!! Your declutter videos totally inspire me! I missed your blog sale & am super sad :( as i'm not on twitter as much as I used to be.
Hi Christine! I have to catch up on all your vids! I've missed so much. I had a baby 8 weeks ago! You always get me motivated to clean and declutter! Hope all is well :D
I got so excited seeing this video pop up!!! I want them to be an hour long! x x x
Have just discovered you and am pinching your lit-up headboard idea. Hope all goes well with the move and the Thailand trip!!
love watching these videos, and have a wonderful and safe trip christine!
I love these videos that you do. They are very inspiring and motivating and teach me how to downsize!
So true about nail polish! I've got quite a collection growing and no regrets about spending the money! because it's so fun! haha
Hi Christine; I so enjoyed your cleaning/packing vid. ☺ What type of vehicle will you be traveling in? A RV by chance... So you'll still be able to make vids? Good luck on your new adventures!! ☺
Good luck with the move. It's always such a big job but it definitely helps you get rid of all the excess for sure.
All week i have been watching your videos and have been distracted from getting on and doing anything lol. Hope the move goes well :) xxp.s thank you for your great vids!! Xxx
You are a true motivator. I just cleaned out my jewelry armoire. I put the items in a zip bag to donate to Goodwill.
You have inspired me so much! I see your style has change...no more pinky, leopard, glitter ...i mean less of does..more subdue colors for decor.... more clean, fresh type decor. I am happy that I find in my country a site that sells some Desert Essence products...that I know from you are nice....and more natural. Thanks and good luck!

Love your vlogs, no matter what they are about! Thanks for sharing!!
OMG! I was shoked to see the box with green clay with russian letters on the box!!!
Yeah! We have that boxes everywhere - it's very popular line =)))
Nothing beats watching a cleaning video by christine before tackeling a cleaning project yourself. You are so motivating :)
Great job. Funnily enough I just uploaded my vanity declutter video :-). I did the reverse order to you - vanity first, then wardrobe.
I hope we will be going on your journey with you. How exciting! Good luck
I love seeing your clutter organizing because I'm OCD and I love cleaning and giving things away that I don't need or don't use love this vlog
It makes me so happy to see you continuing to minimize. It's amazing how little we really need. :)
That blood orange and vanilla stuff smells sooooo awesome.
Thank you so much for your videos! They are so motivating I've watched them several times and every time I watch them I am able to purge! It feels so good!! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Damn girl! You got loads of stuff :o lol I felt that way too when I spring cleaned out my vanity stuff, so much extra space :D
She's going to continue being on YT. She mentioned on a previous video that they are moving to another house but still in Maui; however they're taking a trip to Thailand in the near future and she's taking us with her! Lol :) Love u Christine! You are a great person!
Are you going to be selling stuff again soon? I LOVED my eye-shadows I got from you!

Aww thank you so much sweetheart!! Hugs
What is Amazing Race? Is it on tv or here on youtube? I've heard of it, but don't really know about it...
Just read your blog and am very sorry to hear about The Moose, loosing pets is always heart breaking x x x
it's a big job...and your showing us makes us want to clean up too...so thanks millions
It's amazing how much much tuff we accumulate. I don't know how much stuff either I gave away or thrown out.
What do you use onyour hair as heat protectant for blow drying/straightening?
thank you so much for making these videos, you truly are inspirational!
Your hands and nails are so perfectly manicured I'm jealous omg
So sad I missed out on the blog sale. I guess I need to use Twitter. I'm glad it was a success for you, though!
Which oils did u keep and which did u get rid of?
I have been useing the Makeup forever mat velvet plus. I really like it. However I am wanting a animal ingredient free foundation. Could you research if Makeup forever matvelvet plus is animal free. If it is not would you give recommendation for a good dupe. I have been looking at Vitacost Ecco Bella Foundation online. Wondering what you think--Rebecca
YOU ALWAYS GET ME IN THE MOOD TO CLEAN !!!
Wow, that was so unexpected to see Russian clays in ur video))) I use those brands of clay too) They are really popular here) Hugs from Russia xoxo
I am using that John Masters lotion right now! It is lurvely!
Thnx for your de-clutter makeup video. Inspired me to do the same.
I'm jealous you have such a small one! I never feel satisfied just because I have bought something, I can tell you that. Belongings just weigh me down. I feel like I give so much away and I there is still so much stuff.
Sorry about your loss!
You should do another inventory video and compare it to your ideal inventory list once you've settled in :)
I cant wait to see your new home!!
your moving from current set up? or to a new place?
i am curious as to what u are going to be doing for work while u are traveling. are u still going to be making jewelry and what not??
Would love to see videos of what you are packing for your trip.
Be careful that your lipsticks don't melt in storage.
P.S. Didn't you just buy that bathing suit to be given away in the pink chest?
Have a wonderful trip Christine and Michael.
