In my experience, if you’re more brutal in areas you aren’t obsessed with, it frees you up to hold on to more of what you are obsessed with. For example, I also love palettes. So I just allow myself to and not feel guilty about having more palettes than one person needs. I make room for them by acknowledging I really only use one concealer anyway, so I don’t need 12 of those. Or primers, or bronzers.
I made an inventory of my makeup and skincare collection last night and was absolutely shocked by the number of items I have. Its definitely jarring when you write the number per category on paper. :-O
I would really love it if you did a “saved items per category” video - talking about and comparing tinted moisturizers, for example, showing how they apply and the finish while telling us why you decided to keep them. It would be great 👍🏽 p.s. the Diptyque perfumes keep perfectly and never ever go off for YEARS xx
Try a weekly makeup basket, where you pick out one foundation, one powder, one mascara, etc that you’ll use for the week. Some do it for a month. Have the “ basket” ( you can use a tray or something easy) have its own space, that way you rotate out week to week and don’t have to go into those acrylic drawers every day. There’s a lot of UA-cam videos about weekly makeup baskets
These decluttering videos break my heart. People spend all this money to buy these things and then they don't even use them. I wish that those things go to a charity for women who don't have enough money to buy things like makeup or to friends who will use them.
Most youtubers who do decluttering videos usually give their makeup to family and friends as long as the products aren’t expired. Unfortunately most women’s shelters and donation banks don’t take opened makeup :(
Luntik Funtik Right?! I went thru a phase of buying all this makeup because of these makeup collections on yt and trying to find out what works for me. And now a lot is going bad, even with me giving a lot away to friends and family. I enjoy declutters because it reminds me to keep/buy what I need and use what I have. To prevent myself from over buying, I have these acrylic drawers, and if I can’t fit it in there, I won’t buy it.
I’ve just bought a brand new naked palette as I’d heard it was being discontinued. I bought it from a reputable company on line and was so happy to get a replacement- sure my original is about 7 years old!! Only problem is I feel sentimental about the original one!x
Easiest way to keep your makeup collection under control is to refuse first. I'm so so picky about what I buy. I have to absolutely love it and I never buy something in the same category I already have. When I want to try something out, I use up what I have in that category.
I always do a major decluttering every year or so and it pains me to throw or give away makeup items that I used to love lol. My collection was getting out of hand, and now I curated it to contain products that I pretty much always use!
You could do makeup tutorials with the palettes you kept, like 3 different looks with the same palette, that would be cool to watch. Also, I love your hair in this video, how did you get that sightly wavy look? With a curling wand?
Wow Alix! That must have been the most successful decluttering video I have ever seen! 👏 I mean, we all have our favourites and basically these are the only products we need 😶🙃
Yes so good love these type of videos you do,loving your hair and your energy is so soothing! You seem so happy and content! Looking forward to part two🥳
Yes more longer Vids from you plssss.. Could you do a full face of Hourglass Makeup Tutorial next? Maybe your favourite serums and oils to use too? Not asking for much :P but you're my new makeup/beauty fave on UA-cam - and both of these would make me watch! xx
Just started binge watching. Thanks for the recs for Abu Dhabi lip cream just bought it. I'm obsessed with your 2018 best products makeup look trying to recreate it
It breaks my heart to see you part with that Eyeko eyeliner! I absolutely love them, I think they are great value for money without being high end makeup ☺️
I'm also so upset about the Kiehl's perfume! It's my favourite one ever and took me a few years to get through a big bottle, but then when I went to repurchase it, they'd discontinued :(((
You did very well! I remember getting rid of my naked palette and it was hard. But what’s the point in keeping things when you don’t use them. You’re basically just storing them for no reason 🤷🏻♀️
I wouldn’t say this is SUPER minimalistic, but who am I to judge bc I have my one foundation, eyeshadow, blush, mascara, concealer, lip gloss and that’s about it. SUPER PROUD OF YOU THO!!
Hi , I enjoy a good declutter but over the past year I have cut my makeup by half , all my drug store makeup and skin care has been passed onto my family , now I can see and use all my high end products , I have an Alex nine drawer and when I open a drawer I can see and use my beautiful makeup , I must say all my skin care are high end but stored into my bathroom , my makeup now when I open a drawer I smile as I love every products I have , my lipsticks are Charlotte tilbury nude collection, Estée Lauder pink collection and only one red benefit ruby whoo , but I only wear at Christmas , but my very favourite collection is my Charlotte tilbury , my weakness is all her quads and three holiday palettes along with every other item she has produced , and my Estée Lauder drawer almost on par with charlottes , my complexion products are a mix of both brands , Eyeliners and brow products are a mix of both brands , however now I can open a drawer and select a product without needing to search , now they are there to see and use . I was worried the expiration dates just would overtake my collection but no I am very lucky to use all I have . Please everyone I am a mature lady we start somewhere so just enjoy , my love liz x
I think I've only ever had a couple of perfumes go off, I keep mine covered and in a cool dry space in my wardrobe, not in the sun. I know the bottles are pretty to display but the sun is not their friend :(
Does anybody know what the product is at 19:11 , top left with the woman on it, my girlfriend is driving herself and me crazy trying to find out what it is?
Watching this makes me happy and sad at the same time - happy because I absolutely love watching declutterung videos, but sad because you're throwing out a lot of makeup and I can't stop thinking about my sister who would absolutely die to own some of these products 😢
Why do decluttering and organising videos make me so relaxed?? Am i the only one? 😂
I'm obsessed with them too ♥
Me too!! But I’m not able to do it ...😩😂
No you’re not😂 I was about to comment this lol
No I could watch them all day😅
Don't worry, be happy ❤ i love them soooo much 💪

Julia same
I love eyeshadow palettes and lipsticks. They compose about 95% of my make up "collection" 🤣
Damn, you were ruthless!! But I loved that you were honest and realistic when thinking about what you really need☺️
Not exactly
You look kinda like drew berrymore (sp?)
Kathryn Au that’s what I thought
Yessss!! The blonde sister!
Absolutely!
that’s exactly what i thought
Yep...she does resemble her
"I'm too sentimental to be a minimalist." Sing it, sister!
Love watching makeup declutter videos. I also love hearing your thoughts on each item, like quick mini reviews. I find that really interesting.
Same. Watching "makeup declutter" videos on yt is one of my fav things to do!
WHAT?! is that Drew Barrymore!?
I made an inventory of my makeup and skincare collection last night and was absolutely shocked by the number of items I have. Its definitely jarring when you write the number per category on paper. :-O
I really enjoy your declutter. You're very decisive of what you want to keep and what can go.
When alix is getting rid of these goodies that aren't available in my country am like please over here over here 😁

Now this was a savage decluttering session. You have been merciless!

Nefeli Blossom she also gets a lot of pr so she didn’t buy ALL of it
Ah I hope you Back to Mac the Mac products , and get new tubes of the lipsticks you did like!
I’ve just bought a brand new naked palette as I’d heard it was being discontinued. I bought it from a reputable company on line and was so happy to get a replacement- sure my original is about 7 years old!! Only problem is I feel sentimental about the original one!x
Simple & classy 🖤
I also need to declutter my makeup and my life in general! haha thanks for sharing!!
These kinds of videos always give me so much decluttering inspo! Like I just want to go and purge my collection right now!

Jailene it feels so cleansing and freeing doesn’t it??
Dang, you did SO GOOD!
Ps: you look amazing. Love the hair and the jumper and the minimal makeup look.
You know it's serious when Alix goes upstairs hahaha
Love this video!! You do the best makeup declutter and fav vids.
You look absolutely stunning!
You could do makeup tutorials with the palettes you kept, like 3 different looks with the same palette, that would be cool to watch. Also, I love your hair in this video, how did you get that sightly wavy look? With a curling wand?
Yes, what a great idea!
1 palette, 3 looks with. I love those videos. My fav are from Marion Caméléon from France!
Wow Alix! That must have been the most successful decluttering video I have ever seen! 👏 I mean, we all have our favourites and basically these are the only products we need 😶🙃
Just wanted to say that you look fantastic! I love that sweater on you, the color compliments you so well! Happy moving! xx
I love watching your declutters because I love your collection. One of my favorites!
Oh the hourglass palettes, so pretty ;)
Random question, but how do you declutter perfumes? Do you empty them (how?) and put in the "glass bin" or the general bin with liquid left?
Greeaaaat I have more makeup than a beauty blogger lol *throws away credit card*
ehlesdee omg same. I can’t justify it 🤦🏻♀️
Credit Card starts to cry
The best videos ever! Right all I need is some popcorn and a lemon and ginger tea x
I also got my Naked palette for Christmas in 2011! I held onto it until last year haha
Yay! A declutter video from our queen!
I jumped when I saw this upload!! 🙆♀️🙆♀️
This declutter is SO satisfying
It's kind of rough how you can give away so many beauties 😂 But also feels good to see you can stick to the essentials
You were so ruthless, it's impressive! 🙌
Yes so good love these type of videos you do,loving your hair and your energy is so soothing! You seem so happy and content! Looking forward to part two🥳
Aww the Naked palette! It was what first introduced me to your UA-cam channel when I searched for tutorials on how to use it
Gosh - what a parting! Brave lady. X
Yes to more decluttering videos 😍 Love your videos 💚 Saludos desde Argentina 💚
Personally, I have very few cosmetics so I do not need such a radical cleanup as you, but it was fun to watch 😄
Just moved half of my studio today to my new place and glad I'm not the only one regretting all their stuff right now ;) good luck :D
Omg can’t wait to watch this one!! Just starting the vid and I want to say that you are looking incredibly beautiful
Omg
I have been dying to try the wonder glow 😩😩😩😩
Yes more longer Vids from you plssss.. Could you do a full face of Hourglass Makeup Tutorial next? Maybe your favourite serums and oils to use too? Not asking for much :P but you're my new makeup/beauty fave on UA-cam - and both of these would make me watch! xx
Watching this because I love declutters..
Spotted hello kitty colourpop and super jealous 😂
Yes! I needed this today I’m so unwell 😩 very excited for all the decluttering, organising and home related content 💕 also love the jumper! X
I hope you feel better soon!
I love watching decluttering videos, so I'm looking forward to next week's. :)
Just started binge watching. Thanks for the recs for Abu Dhabi lip cream just bought it. I'm obsessed with your 2018 best products makeup look trying to recreate it
It breaks my heart to see you part with that Eyeko eyeliner! I absolutely love them, I think they are great value for money without being high end makeup ☺️
Please bring all those things you're tossing to Origins to recycle so the plastic doesn't end up in landfill!
I love a good decluttering video, but I had to stop it after a few seconds to order this gorgeous jumper! 🙌🏼 Back to the vid...
Me too hahaha
Your hair!!! 💗💗💗
PROUD OF YOU
OMG just went down to the comments cause I was like “someone else must’ve seen the drew barrymore likeness” 😱
i screamed a little when i saw her chucking the dior lip glow
Oh, my heart is bleeding. ^^ So many things you declutter is stuff I really want to try.
I love your jumper, when i was little we lived round the corner from that street.
I'm also so upset about the Kiehl's perfume! It's my favourite one ever and took me a few years to get through a big bottle, but then when I went to repurchase it, they'd discontinued :(((
Drew Barrymore vibes are so strong with this one.
Listening to this Video while cleaning up my flat 😂 so relaxing....
You did very well! I remember getting rid of my naked palette and it was hard. But what’s the point in keeping things when you don’t use them. You’re basically just storing them for no reason 🤷🏻♀️
Have a beautiful day :)
You did so well!!!
Do you have a link for the plastic drawer divider/box things? I can't find them online!
I’m getting anxiety watching you throw out so much product! I wish I was walking behind you holding the “trash bin”
Dana Taylor for real though. 😂
I wouldn’t say this is SUPER minimalistic, but who am I to judge bc I have my one foundation, eyeshadow, blush, mascara, concealer, lip gloss and that’s about it. SUPER PROUD OF YOU THO!!
thumbs up hun love ur jumper. and loved this video thanx for sharing 🤗 xx
It's from Joanie Clothing!
NARS still offers Douceur but only in the refill pan.
At first glance i thought you were Drew Barrymore 😁 i’ve been cleaning my collection as well and i find it so hard to separate from products
omg i love decluttering videos
Oh my you look like the beautiful drew barrymore💕
nooo give me all your hourglass products i love 😭 😭 😭
you look like drew barrymore 💞
UD also sent Kathleenlights a black spray painted naked 2 palette.
I love this jumper! What size did you go for and would you say it's true to size? xxx
I love these videos and your voice is so calming! Wait for the second part!😍
Did you throw away all your concealers?! 😱😱
this didn’t show up in my subscription feed, slightly annoying cause you’re currently my favourite youtuber to watch so not sure why that’s happening.
Where did you get your containers?
Jesus Christ. That was brutal 😂
Wait they don’t make the naked palette any more?
Why is ur naked 2 eyeshadow palette looks so different from mine??
I want this😍😍😍
Why don't you de-pot all your eyeshadows and put them in a z-palette to save space?
If Karli kloss, drew barrymore, and Kiera Knightley had a baby
Your hair is gorgeous! Can you tell us how you styled it?
yeeeeees. My therapy video is out heh :D

Please everyone I am a mature lady we start somewhere so just enjoy , my love liz x
I think I've only ever had a couple of perfumes go off, I keep mine covered and in a cool dry space in my wardrobe, not in the sun. I know the bottles are pretty to display but the sun is not their friend :(
I just love a good decluttering video. I realise as I'm typing that this is a sentence I never thought I'd type.
Make sure you save your MAC empties for back to mac :)
I love this all
Does anybody know what the product is at 19:11 , top left with the woman on it, my girlfriend is driving herself and me crazy trying to find out what it is?
Hi! It's Charlotte Tilbury's Dreamy Glow Highlighter with a 1959 Vogue image of Carmen Dell'Orefice 😀
@@laleharrison thank you so much, you're a saint.
I reaally like your voice, just random thought 😂😂😂
Watching this makes me happy and sad at the same time - happy because I absolutely love watching declutterung videos, but sad because you're throwing out a lot of makeup and I can't stop thinking about my sister who would absolutely die to own some of these products 😢
If you’re letting go of the Hourglass ambient lighting edit unlocked let a sister know. 🙏
omg UA-cam suggested this video ,, and you look like young Drew Barrymore !!
