i would call 2023 a good year, for sure. even though i am not on a specific no-buy, i still try to minimize my nail polish buying, resulting in only two purchases, both of them catrice, and with 5 empties (with a couple more that were close to being finished). all in all, solid year.

well, this was a strange year. after an unplanned no-buy in 2021, i actually bought three polishes in 2022. all of them are catrice, and with some months apart. i really like this new iconails line.
on the other hand, even though i got a lot of bottles near finish, only one can actually be called empty, and that is zoya-tosca. this probably means that there will be a lot of empties during this year.

on the other hand, i finished up 8 bottles:
