If you’ve been following along with my recent move, and the HUGE purge I did in prep for this move, then you’ll know that I achieved what I consider to be great (well, really pretty good) things in my purging of closets, drawers, and literally everything in our home. This is a subject near and dear to my heart, not only because of my move, but also because this is exactly what I help my clients do in their closets. So it’s no surprise that I am attracted to articles, blogs and videos that inspire in this area.

I recently came across this delightfully honest video by Dominique Sachse on her huge makeup  purge, where she actually films her process for our benefit. She was inspired by a book, Toss the Gloss by Andrea Q. Robinson, and jumped in with both feet and hands (and trash bags).  I had done a make-up purge prior to our move, which I talked about here, but I have to say that my ‘stash’ didn’t come anywhere close to Dominque’s – I’m a real novice.  What particularly spoke to me in this video was getting rid of the nail polishes that I’ve got squirreled away. Like Dominique (and maybe most of you?) I go to the nail salon, so I really don’t need my collection of polishes anymore. So guess what I’m going to be doing today?

This is something that should probably be done at least once a year, especially if you’re a lover of make-up, samples from cosmetic counters, and so on. Enjoy this video, then grab some trash bags and tackle those make-up drawers!

Thanks for reading!
