After another beauty fail I'm going NMB- no more buying

I am the easiest type of person to 'influence'. I see something a couple of times and then I want it so badly.
I just bought a new bareMinerals tinted moisturizer £32 but I trusted the young sales assistant and now at home it's way too orange and dark for me. So that's a waste of money. In fury I have decided no more buying. I have a ton of skincare and make up and I will NOT be influenced into buying any more. I'm going to go through all my products until they are completely used up. Anyone care to join me?
Bearing in mind I don't get any advent calendars or anything like that either.

Take it back to the shop if you can. If you've been badly matched in store they're normally quite good at swapping out.

I have wasted so much money watching bloggers recommendations, I do now only watch over 50s but still get it wrong, the latest was a tinted eye cream that comes out white and adjust to your skin colour, domybumlook40 was showing it, well it was so dark on me, I did manage to resell on ebay but was still out of pocket.

Luckily I have been able to swap it for a more suitable shade but my no buy oath remains in place.
I just want to use up everything I have now and see how my skin reacts. It's my birthday on Boxing Day so I can ask for the stuff that works as gifts knowing it will last a full year.
Having said all that I am tempted by these beauty calendars 😂
