I was really nervous about Black Friday. I'm on a no buy that I started November 2nd and is going until December 29th; I'm going to visit a friend in the US and they live by an Ulta. I've been strong but the sales were good!

But I stayed strong and only bought what I needed. I'm zero waste (or more accurately, low waste) and I only buy clothing second hand or from a sustainable source. I really needed some new underwear and leggings and I found them from a sustainable company that was having a sale for almost fifty percent off, and then I found a free shipping code!

So not only did I keep my makeup collection the same, I also bought only what I needed and took advantage of a good sale. And the environment won't suffer from it! Win, win!
