Total # of bottles: 63. CRAP!
Total # of bottles I purchased for myself: 40. CRAP!

I will say, though, a lot of what I bought was cheap. 2 Color Club sets at $15 each, $26 for all the Kleancolors, $10 for the set of CG minis. The Color Club and Kleancolor really inflate the bottle count but I didn't spend that much on them.

But... Let's not even talk about all the stuff I've bought for swaps. Probably upwards of 20 polishes. Plus shipping...
I have 2 swaps left to complete and once they are done, I am DONE swapping for a while and I am trying to stick to that!

I promise I will be better in August (once I get back from my trip.) My bank account needs me to be good!
(But my August haul is going to look bad because of the swaps I have coming... Haha!)

  4. If you get great polishes for under $3 a bottle, then you shouldn't beat yourself up about it. I found it is better not to count # of bottles, but more the average of cost per bottle. It makes me feel better about it.

    I was enjoying all the swatching that you have been doing this month (July). I really hope you do the rest of the kleancolors soon :)
