  • I have sooooo much skincare products stacked everywhere in our HUGE bathroom... they are stacked on top of each other...stacked on three levels. When people come to visit us, they ask me if it's my job to sell skincare products 😂😂😂😂 I just laugh and have say it is all mine 😊😅
  • @Tommytumee
    As a marketer, I confirm that marketing bullshits.
  • It is very true—it is so easy to fall into the skincare rabbit hole. I have so many products now that I know are wasteful. It's time to reevaluate my "stock." Thanks, Kelly!
  • @Desertxxrose
    I might be here to go against the current, but I LOOOOOOVE my Long night routines. As you said, its my comfort time, the time I sort of forget about everything and helps me reset. Of course it might be complicated at first, but once you get the hang of it...❤❤❤
  • @danielac5090
    I loved everything you said! I have to admit I have waaaay more products than I need and some of them are not even suitable for my goals
  • @maryv9832
    Loved this video Kelly! My night skincare routine is the highlight of my day. My morning routine, however, is a major chore! I’m not a morning person 😂
  • @SaReLaMo
    I had the FOMO regarding skincare. And I bought so many products and I, of course, opened them all at the same time. When I went through my products, the majority of the products was expired and many where about to expire. I wasn't even half way through and had to throw away all the products, and so much money down the bin. I have been more mindfull about products I buy and see more to what my skin NEEDS more than what I WANT. I still have a lot of products, but they all have a purpose now. Also, I don't open up every product as soon as I get them. One products out - one product in. But the skincare routines are my favorite times of the day. In the morning is my time to wake up, pamper myself and get my skin ready for the day. At night it's the wind down time, to reset and to repair the damage of the day. I love it!
  • It's so nice that you take the time to be the voice that neutralizes the craziness of life and skincare every ones in a while. I really apreciate that. Thank you for you ❤
  • This resonated to much with me! Timely reminders. Thank you, beautiful Kelly 🫶
  • Such a wonderfully informative video! I have fell victim to marketing. I have many, many toners as well .I am now trying to pare down the number of products I have and be more mindful. Thank you so much Kelly. 💖💖

    For me it's definitely using too much products. I tend to duplicate too much, both in terms of product category but also ingredients, as everything I use seems to have ingredients like niacinamide, glycerine, vitamin C derivatives and fermented ingredients etc. I tend to always buy stuff targeted at dry skin and hyperpigmentation, so that tends to happen
  • Perfect timing of this video. I have been thinking about my routine and how I really need to reevaluate the products that I am using. It is just that there is so much out there and I don't want to miss out on a "holy grail". It really is a big rabbit hole that I have fallen into! I am retired therefore I have time to watch lots of videos and I see all the great products out there. I am trying to have a better plan.
  • @SandiTink
    It’s taken me five years to curate a skin care routine that doesn’t cause problems yet helps with what I’m working on.
  • @BarbaraT.
    Guilty as charged of a few of these issues. Glad I'm not alone 😅. Very helpful video, Kelly.
  • @shermainn
    This is such a great video! I now go through a cycle by using this technique I learned from called project pan where you basically have a certain number of products that you use for a few months to try and finish till the end and then go through another round of it to prevent any product waste and it is a great method for me as I get to see how much skincare I have in my cabinet without actually needing to buy more!
  • I keep my daytime and nighttime routines in two separate baskets on my vanity. I do use multiple toners in each routine because I love toners, but while all of my toners target hydration, they each have different 'star' ingredient that target my skincare goals. I limit essences and serums to one each. Even if i could find one product to do ALL the things, I dont think I would change my routine because I love the ritual of applying all my 'potions.' Thanks for the reminder, Kelly, I love your content!
  • I definitely over purchased when I first got into k beauty. I allow myself one backup of a product type. It would be horrible if I did without while waiting weeks for delivery! 😂I do have multiple toners in my routine. I love them so much but am careful not to duplicate ingredients.
  • @CherylE6119
    Such a great video!! I think purchasing skincare from one or two brands helps keep it a little simpler. I think getting into the marketing hype is so real! I've been trying to be more intentional on what I truly need.
  • @kcoburn126
    This was great!! I keep a list on my vanity to divide up my am and pm routine, so I don’t overuse skincare
