You've got the bodyshop stuff and molton brown stuff which is nice

Yes thats true

The Bodyshop bits were all from sales and in kits or when they were on offer. This was last christmas sales just gone and year before 2009.

For some reason i'd think nothing of spending loads in Molton Brown and Philosophy from QVC but i didnt want to spend full price on the high street things, weird

I'm going to enjoy the products and see what happens when i start running out :rotfl:

Lots of lovely high end products there... *is incredibly jealous* My stash consists of mainly Poundland rubbish :rotfl:

Thank-you, but its silly really spending so much money of something that washes away :mad:

I still cant believe how much i've spent but years ago i didnt have the commitments i do now (flat, boyfriend, work etc) but im determined to be more sensible now

I haven't done a pic, no. I might at some point though. My toiletries are mainly high street brands from B&M and Poundland I buy a lot of cheapie items, but in bulk. I think in future I'd be better off spending a little more on some stuff I really love, rather than wasting £1 on an item that I get sick of very quickly.


That's true. I begrudge spending more than a couple of £s in body wash and soap, and for my face I tend to stick to the same old stuff (I have rosacea & seborrheic dermatitis so my skin reacts to most things, so I stick with the bare basics that work for me - I wish I was able to use Liz Earle but my skin hates it ).

My Dad has very red acne rosacea skin and he uses the Liz Earle men's range and its really improved his skin. Its alot less red and inflamed, its really calmed it down.

Its a shame when your skin doesnt like something you do! :mad:

Right, ok, in an attempt to cure myself i am going to post the photos of my stash :eek:

This includes my shocking Liz Earle stash and my bath/shower gels.

The shelf of body/shower gels and scrubs in bad!
Ive done a close up of the round tubs of scrubs as these are on top of each other and is actually more than you can see :eek:

I hope this uploads ok or maybe i dont :rotfl:

Just to add this does not include my make-up, but to be fair i dont have that much, the above is my addiction!

OMG, CALL A DOCTOR THIS WOMAN HAS A SERIOUS CASE OF STASHITIS! :eek:

That's a seriously impressive amount of stuff, but my word, how much is all that worth? There must be hundreds and hundreds of pounds worth of Lix Earle stuff alone there! Go on the websites, see how much it would cost to buy now and add up the total: I promise, you won't buy anything for a very, very long time!

Enjoy using it up, but remember, these products won't last forever (and use up the Earle stuff first as that really won't!) x

*Vikki*

I just bought aldi aqua complete moisturiser, concealer pen and lipstick. All are so far comparable to my Clinique products but at a fraction of the cost! So money saving if they continue to be so good!
