In this video I’m kicking off my 2026 no buy (well… as much as I realistically can). I explain what a no buy actually means for me, why I’m doing it, and the rules I’m setting so I can be more conscious about my collection instead of constantly chasing the newest thing. Starting my channel in 2025 definitely grew my stash, and I’m at the point where I want to actually use what I own—because I genuinely love so many of these products, and project panning is so satisfying. My plan is a six-month no buy where I don’t purchase new items in categories I already have, with “replacement only” rules based on fully finishing a category (not just one product). At the six-month mark, I’ll reassess, and my goal is to make it to the Bath & Body Works Summer Semi-Annual Sale—if I still can’t stop thinking about a scent, I can grab it discounted (and if it’s gone, it’s not the end of the world). I also share my exceptions: buying beauty while I’m in Taiwan and Japan for my honeymoon, and using a couple expiring Bath & Body Works rewards. Then, for my one last hurrah, I show my final Bath & Body Works Semi-Annual Sale haul: Pink Chiffon, Brown Sugar & Fig, Fairytale, Sunshine Mimosa, Island Margarita, Pretty as a Peach, and Butterfly—plus exactly why each one made the cut.
