A WOMAN has left people totally stunned after revealing how she saves cash. Eleanor Blanch, a woman from the US, explained that not only does she only have one hairband, but she also shares a toothbrush with her husband too. And if that wasn’t enough, she’s been wearing the same two pairs of shoes for the last decade, and also uses make-up that expired five years ago.

Posting on social media, the blonde-haired beauty shared her clip with the caption ‘Don't come at me for any of these.’ She then shared how she lives an “underconsumption core” lifestyle, as she revealed things that people might find “controversial”. Whilst many people will use shower gel, shaving foam, body scrub and more when they clean their bodies in the shower, Eleanor proudly showed off her “shower essentials” - simply just a single bar of soap.



Not only this, but when it comes to her skincare, rather than having a variety of different face washes and serums, Eleanor has cut back her routine and simply uses African black soap. She then confirmed that to save cash, she wears the same shoes until they fall apart, as she gave her followers a close-up look at two of her favourite footwear choices. Not only does she own a pair of her brown sandals, which she has had for the past ten years, but she also wears a pair of grey boots that she has “walked thousands of miles in” for the past seven years.

But Eleanor really left people gasping when she showed off her electric toothbrush, as she confirmed: “The toothbrush my husband and I share.” Not only does she not have her own toothbrush, but as a result of her minimalist lifestyle, she’s also been using the same hair band for “over a year” too. And finally, rather than an overflowing make-up bag with a variety of different items, she simply has a handful of make-up.

Eleanor uses an SPF, bronzer, mascara and lipstick, and confirmed that her concealer “expired five years ago”, but that won’t stop her applying it to her face. ADOPTING a minimalist lifestyle can bring clarity, reduce stress, and create more space for the things that truly matter.
