Project: Pan those Nail Polishes II

Nail polish is THE beauty category I can go nuts about. However at the beginning of this year I decided that 215 nail polishes was a bit too much and decided to embark on this “Pan those Nail Polishes Project”. Last poste (here) was not quite what I expected it to be (bought 26 and only used up 6...ups) but now I am finally seeing some progress that I am super excited about. Still not quite where I want to be but definitely heading towards the right direction now. Although this update is coming a bit late, I still wanted to share with you my progress.

Over the last four months (May-August) I managed to empty 12 polishes. I have to admit even I am surprised by that number. Ok, most bottles were half full to begin with but 12 is definitely a personal record. Not too bad, right?

I don´t think I will be able to keep up with that speed in terms of using up products, mostly because the bottles I aim to finish now are full but I will continue to work on it.

I couldn’t quite resist buying some new nail polishes as well but I didn’t go near as crazy as last time.  I bought and used up a total of 12 nail polishes, having a total of 236.

My goal for the third and final update of this year is to actually reduce the number of nail polishes I own (compared to this update). In order to do so I will restrain myself to buy 1 nail polish (if even) a month and hopefully be able to use up an average 2 nail polishes per month. Ideally I would like to own 230 polishes by the end of 2015. I will do my best, keep your fingers crossed!

OLD TOTAL: 235   

NEW TOTAL: 236

Added: +12

Used up: -12 

Are you also working on using up nail polishes? Any tips and tricks?
