I fell off the no-buy wagon. I AM WEAK. *gives you 10% of my willpower* Don't worry! We slip sometimes. I mean I am looking at my LED light from Ulta and thinking about returning it. Most of my buys are because I returned and got store credit or put back on a gift card (which is why I can buy Mac Alluring Aquatics! My Toms were breaking before the 1 year warranty, I returned a few body washes I didn't need, etc.) The whole reason I've been good (minus that LED light that is on the "do you want to go back home to Ulta" list) is because of swimming. Like I said in thread 1, it is about $80 (for Masters swimming) monthly or upwards to $200 for a USA Swimming club (although I am going to see if I can get financial assistance since my income is nada and my parents won't finance it). My advice is: Find something you love or you want to save up for and when you look at it in the end, it'll be all worth it. After all, I'm swimming in Australia in about 2 months to compete there. (And also visit my crush and probably stealing his speedos. I'm just stealing his speedos to piss him off. He's funny when he's annoyed!) *gets you back up*

I am going back on the no-buy and starting over now, lol. I bought my promised BB creme that I knew I needed for my vacation in June. I did get a Purity cleanser because I'm running very low, so that was actually a necessary purchase (and it came with a GWP). The Jo Malone was an exception to my no-buy, too. The rest... It was a YSL lippie, some formula x nail polish, clinique mascara and blush. SO. Back on the no-buy until June 15th, which is after my vacation!

So my becca primer held up all day! Granted the humidity was kinda low today I think upper 80's%, usually at 100% in south florida. But usually in the winter when the humidity is really low I still get oily about 2 hours after I put on makeup but today NOPE, NADA, NONE!!! But not falling for it just yet, going to use the entire deluxe sample just to make sure!!

Good morning, hackney and all other no-buy ladies! How appropriate that I started this morning with a WTF moment. But knowing that a long weekend is around the corner makes me a little happier. It also makes this day feel that much longer! Hope everyone has a wallet-friendly Wednesday
