Spring is here! This season of growth is the perfect time to rethink your rituals and declutter your beauty bag. A minimalist beauty routine not only makes it easier to find what you need, but it can also help you save money and reduce waste.

Here are our four steps for spring cleaning your beauty bag with Elate:

1. Reduce 

It's time to say goodbye to that lipstick from 2010. Begin your spring cleaning by going through your products to responsibly dispose of any old or expired items. Have some gently used items in good condition that just aren't getting used? Consider giving them to a friend who may get more use out of them. This will help you to declutter and make more room for the products that you love.

2. Repurpose

Take a closer look at the products that you have left. Can you repurpose or rethink any of them? For example, you can use your lipstick as a cream blush or bronzer as an eyeshadow. Repurposing products you already own will help you get more use out of them so nothing goes to waste. 

3. Refill

Elate offers refills on all complexion and palette products, meaning you can refill your essentials and bring minimal excess packaging into your routines, allowing you to reduce your carbon footprint and save money. 

4.  Optional: Bring in new items

Once you've completed all of the above steps, you may notice some gaps in your routine that you'd like to fill. Take your time to decide which products or shades you think will fit best into your rituals so nothing goes to waste. 

Happy Spring cleaning!
