After reading Laura Capon's article last year about how much money she'd spent on makeup/beauty products in 2017, I was desperate to do something similar. So, in 2018 I set myself the goal to only buy a new makeup product if I needed a replacement - excluding eyeshadows and lipsticks, of course, because I have no self control. I'm just warning you in advance, the amount I've spent is pretty worrying.
Disclaimer: products marked with a * have been gifted by the brand. Oh, and did I mention it had snowed?!
Fragrances
Victoria's Secret body spray in Pure Seduction - £17. Victoria's Secret perfume in Angel - £65. YSL perfume in Black Opium (my scent of 2018) - £72. Okay, it's embarrassing how expensive my taste in perfume is. I'm actually surprised I only got through three fragrances, but I always have a lot of perfumes on the go at once. 
Skincare
Note: I haven't kept hold of all of my moisturisers/toners etc. I could not live without my Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Herbs and Rosewater, so no wonder I got through two full-sized bottles at £11 and one travel-sized at £7. 
Serums
2 x Superdrug Vitamin C serum - £5. Glossier Super Pure - £24. Nip+Fab Kale Fix shot serum - £25. Nip+Fab Viper Venom Fix shot serum - £25. Skinkissed Flawless Skin serum - £25*. 
Spot Treatments
2 x Witch Hazel Sticks - £2.50.
Lip Care
Nivea lip balm - £1. EOS - £6. Vaseline with cocoa butter - £2. 2 x Elizabeth Arden 8-hour lip balm - £10. I use lip balms all the time and have multiple on the go, so it's no shock that I've spent almost £30 this year. 
Makeup
Mascara I use mascara almost daily, so I'm not surprised that I got through ten this year. L'Oreal Volume Million mascara - £11. L’Oreal Mega Volume Collagene mascara- £10. Beauty Pie Über Volume Boost - £20/3.36 depending on membership*. Colour Couture - approx £10 (I don't think this is available any longer). Givenchy Noir Couture black satin mascara travel size - approx £13*. Too Faced Better Than Sex mascara (my holy grail) - 1 x travel size £10, 1 x normal size £19. Tarte Gifted mascara travel size - approx £10. Tarte Lights Camera Lashes mascara - 1 x travel size £11, 1 x normal size £21. 
Primer
MUA eye primer - £4. Urban Decay Self-Adjusting primer - £24. Too Faced Hangover primer - 1 x travel size £12, 1 x normal size £27. Benefit Porefessional primer - travel size £7. 
Foundation
Anastasia Beverly Hills foundation stick - £25. Tarte Shape Tape hydrating foundation - £33. 
Concealer
Eight concealers this year?! That's a little worrying, I can't lie. 6 x Revolution Conceal and Define - £4. Maybelline Eraser Eye - £9. Tarte Maracuja Creaseless Concealer - £23. 
Setting Spray
2 x Mac Fix+ - £19. Too Faced Hangover setting spray - 2 x travel size £12, 1 x normal size £27. 
Lipstick
Mini Jeffree Star velour liquid lip - £7. Did I really only get through one lippy?!?!
Eyeliner
The Body Shop gel pen liner - £9.
