My 5 Beauty Resolutions | 2015

Hi lovelies happy New Year and hope you all had a nice Christmas - I know I have had way too many mince pies and alcohol over the break but that is a totally different post! I was hesitating for a while about writing a New Year's resolution post because I never really make any I am much more of a 'do it when I want' kind of person, I never set myself goals just because it is a New Year. If there is something I want to do I will do it whenever I seem is best to. However, I was inspired by a blogging chat on Twitter to create a 'beauty resolutions' post which if I remember correctly I created last year - Which I did really well with so these are the beauty resolutions I am setting myself for 2015!

1. Use The Pretty, Special Makeup | Okay call me vain but there have been several times in the past I have purchased in/expensive products down to just being too darn pretty not to have 'cough cough' I am talking about you, Charlotte Tilbury. I am terrible for purchasing these pretty products and then not using them because I don't want to ruin them - ridiculous I know. It gets to the point where I forget I even own some makeup items because I abandon them. So I've decided to stop being such a pansy and use those pretty, special products because there is just no point in buying makeup for it to be thrown at the back of my drawer.

2. Stick At My Routines | Over the Christmas I sort of gave up with my skincare I would take my makeup off and that would be it no cleanse or nothing. My skin started to react to this (nasty breakouts!) which was a sign that my skin needed more attention. I sometimes go through lazy stages with my skin because I get bored of sticking with my routine, (skincare routine will be up one day soon!) I have quite a decent morning/evening routine but like I said I get bored easily, therefore, I stop at times. I've told myself to stick at my routine otherwise my skin will just keep breaking out.

3. De-clutter The Clutter | Similar to number 1 I buy things and then forget I own them and this builds up more and more to the point where I have drawers full of products that have been used several times then replaced. It is sad products don't deserve to be abandoned or if I am being realistic here my money doesn't deserve to be wasted! (being a student is hard at times!). So I think it's about time I de-clutter all of the products from my drawer and start using them up rather than constantly buying more and more!

4. Change Routines Up | Total differentiation to number 2 I know but I am talking about hair here not skincare. When I was jotting down my 2014 favourites I realized I have not changed much of my hair care if anything I still religiously use the same products. Which isn't a bad thing but, as just mentioned I get bored easily when it comes to beauty. So I think I should maybe change my hair care routine up a little whether that is my products or my hairstyle itself because I am starting to get a little bored of it. Any ideas feel free to tell me some.

5. Stop Getting Bored Easily | This one makes me laugh because all I have gone on about is being bored but yes I am setting myself a resolution not to get bored with products. Because if I get bored with products this happens: boredom = purchase new products = eventually get bored with new products. It is a forever circle. I don't get bored off everything I use of course but products I do get bored of overtime is skin and hair care. So instead of wasting products by disregarding them in my drawers, I have told myself to use these products up before I even consider purchasing something else. Seems an okay deal to me right?

Whether I stick at these resolutions is a mystery that we will soon discover at the end of the year. I would like to think I can stick to these resolutions because a lot of them involve waste which isn't an option when it comes to beauty products but we shall soon see!

What are your beauty resolutions??
