Thanks for sharing what products you like and don't like.

Personally I will never stop buying Estee Lauder's Advanced Night Repair, seriously expensive at £49 for 50 ml. I have a tendency to get psoriasis in my forehead and after having used the night repair for a few months, I have had no flare ups at all. I have decided that the money that I save for not buying any toiletries and using up what I got will go towards a new night repair and then the rest I will save. I also really like Liz Earle's Skin repair moisturiser for dry/sensitive skin and have used this for years.

Good luck everyone with the challenge.

I feel the same way. Its one of the few prodcts my skin has tolerated long term, and survived its revamp..often reworked recipes unsettle my skin....but not this. DH bought me the eye version....its not as good, but I think I am buying the supposedly super dooper (and certainly super expensive) once/twice a year super new concentrate version: purchase decision made on the wonder that is the advanced night repair. I have to say Estee Lauder skincare is always pretty reliable for me: it might not have the beguiling packaging of some other products, but it works.

I hope I inherit my mums good genes, and my grandma's none of them have wrinkles or bad skin! They all look fab.

I try to do that every night, but only happens for about half of the week. Does feel good.


What ones are these? Are they good?

They are the asda own (Not smart price) and are about 98p a pack. I have used them for years. I have the sensitive skin ones and find them brilliant. They even remove waterproof mascara (even the next morning :eek:)
I have tried loads of diffrent brands over the years and still come back to them

I had an early night last night so I failed at PYNM. I'm off home to do it now though!
I used up a dodgy smelling moisturiser of DH's on Saturday and we are at the point where we have very little bubble bath type things left. Used the shampoo up so we're on the 1/2 used one that DD had stashed in her swimming bag. Conditioner is still going strong- bleurgh!
I'll catch up with you all tomorrow!

Finished a bath essence last night. It was a gift that's been hanging around the bathroom for at least a year, so I'm happy that I'll never have to see it again. A Clinique moisturiser has also gone in the bin, so a good day

so far since joining ths challenge ive managed to use up
the dregs from a tube of handcream,
the few bath oil pearls that were loitering in the bottom of a jar
2 bottles of perfum with only a couple of squirts left in
the soaps that were in the bathroom - broke out the 'pretty' soaps that were hidden in my cupboard they are now in the bathroom awaiting use
bottle of hair conditioner - huge bottle only about 1cm left in bottom it was so thick everyone else had given up on it so i mixed it with a bit of water so i could use it
2 toothpaste tubes that only had a couple of brushes worth left in them
a couple of bath bombs DS thought it was his birthday getting such a luxury bubble bath
dregs from a bottle of bubble bath

thing is the cupboards and shelves are still heaving with the stuff planning to redo my roots this afternoon that will use a couple of packets of har dye up, i might even throw on a face pack and paint my nails :rotfl:.
im even using mouisteriser and hand creme regulary as there is so much of that in the house now ive looked.

I've so far listed 15 items of make up (unused freebies or offers) on Ebay and 2 are selling. I've also started a charity shop bag of stuff I won't use that I don't think will sell on Ebay due to postage but its new and sealed so no reason someone else won't for a few pence (they're all unwanted gifts).

I'm going to attempt to return a perfume gift set to Boots later which I treated myself to before Christmas as I really don't need it.

Forgot to say, I've still not done a list yet, but I will do cos I like the idea of crossing them off and seeing the stash go down like some of you are doing.

Just received my copy of Lush Times.:eek::eek: Saw a new bath melt but have a couple I need to use first and well, do I really need it? No:j:jNo:j:j
