    Haven't posted for a few days but my original list now looks like this! I used up my perfume the other day, and also a facial moisturiser that I was using on my body.

    I acquired a ton of stuff from someone today though (for free)... mostly body lotions and bubble bath. The bubble bath I'm going to put into a handsoap dispenser, and the body lotions...I'm not sure whether to use them or not. Is Baylis & Harding a really cheap make? I dunno whether I trust them enough to use them on my skin! :undecided

    I've used Baylis & Harding handwash a good few times - they do a gorgeous one that smells exactly like Molton Brown Naran Ji - delicious! I;d be fine about using the body lotions TBH - perhaps if you have really sensitive skin you might be sensible to do a patch test first.

    Oh - when going through my nail varnishes I also realised how many mini bottles of perfume I have. I will use up the J'Adore I'm currently working on and then wil start on some of those. Any I don't like the smell of I will pass to my pal or my Mum as well.

    Yes. What's in your stash?

    Mine is mainly body butters and moisturisers, a heap of shower gels and masses of masses of soaps.

    Right I just took my make up off using make up remover, cleansed, toned and moisturised my face before bed. I'm trying to get into a routine of doing it every night, this challenge will help me keep on track :)

    Thank you to the tip of taking something out of stash and carrying it round. I think I need to get everything out once a week and look at it all to remind me exactly what I've got in there!
