Since I had a couple of makeup resolutions this year I decided to use a habit tracker. Normally I don't have patience with sitting & colouring different blocks every single day. I did the only thing I could & moved it to my phone & replaced the colours with smilies. So much easier
Sunscreen - This was the easiest thing for me. I've used sunscreen every single day since I was 15 & this just felt like getting back to routine. All I had to do was keep my sunscreen up front so I didn't have to hunt for it. 23/31 days
Eyeliner - I struggled with this one initially but now I can draw a neat line, close to my upper lash line in under a minute. 23/31 days
Blush - I used my cream & liquid blushes this month as they will be the first to expire. I'm surprised by how easy this was to master. In just a few days I went from clown cheeks to barely there I'm blushing from within glow. Practice does make perfect after all. 19/31 days
No Buy - The hardest thing for me. I steered clear of all shopping apps & was repeating "I have enough" like a mantra. It did help that I made a makeup inventory at the end of last year. It's easy to lull yourself with 'I don't have that many just a few here & there' but it does make a difference when you see them all together. However I saw a couple of good deals while I was ordering groceries & I really struggled with letting them go. I always stock up on face wash and body washes when they are on sale & this felt like wasting a good opportunity. (You can take the girl out of India but you can't take the Indianess out of the girl) It's taken an iron will & the realization that I have enough to last forever to stop stocking up. 31/31 days
I will be adding using an eyelash curler to these in February. Baby steps. How are your resolutions doing?
