Same. Mascara, brow gel, and tinted lip balm, done.

I used to pay like $250 plus tip every 6 weeks.

Waste of time

Do you cut it yourself?

Qtip quality is trash and you're not even supposed to put them in your ears anyway. Do you stop buying them? We still have 2 boxes. Im looking for examples of stuff like that. What can you or do you go without on purpose?

Cops, gov, laws, morality, religion, cliques, etc.

That really is a scam isn't it? If a person bathes at least once a day, usually not needed.

Same except I pay more for the box color. I’m sure it looks worse in the back but I just can’t care.

I could never live without Kleenex!

I don’t use anything like dryer sheets or fabric softener or perfume or room deodorizer. But couldn’t live without deodorant!

There are lots of things people use that I just never have. Like nail polish.

I won't buy more dryer sheets. When I got new towels I read not to use them because they hinder absorbency. Who knows. But instead of drying towels separately I stopped using the sheets and don't notice much difference.

While there are a few people who don't need it, the vast majority of people really really need to use deodorant. However, they may not be able to smell themselves. But everyone around them does. Please keep using deodorant.
