    I've used up an Elemis Pro Radiance Serum thing had for almost a year and a small night cream also had for that long. Still working through the Pantene Shampoo and a conditioner I've had for over a year.

    Onto a Prescriptives Super Line Preventor Serum now - bear in mind they went out of business as a cosmetics line in Jan this year!

    I have used up a Naked shampoo, conditioner and hair spray, small shower gel, a face mask, deorandant and Body shop body cream. Used up the last of my hair dyes. Have to get more of them this month, but will try and hold out this out to see if they do a special deal in Boots. Still got plenty of things to use up.

    Used up the 400ml pantene shampoo and conditioner, Elemis Pro Radiance cleanser, Prescriptives Super Line Preventor and Moisturiser

    Used up a load this week - style spray for hair, foot cream, bath foam, body lotion, spot oil, hand lotion, shower gel, deep hair conditioner

    Doing well on the stocks which are depleting nicely. I did cave in to the SBC TSV on QVC last month which will split up into presents and then use the rest myself.

    Now onto the last bottle of shampoo and conditioner for the first time in years! Looking forward to buying a new set at long last - not bought any for 18mths!

    Chucked out some hair mousse I've had for nearly 2yrs and won't use.

    Yesterday when cleaning the bathroom I realised I can get rid of the little unit in there and use the side of the bath as the number of products out there has reduced so much to a more normal level after nearly 2yrs!

    Well done Kerry - you're doing well!

    Another little breakthrough today achieved!

    Threw out the bath side unit today as it only had a few products in it and it was way past its best. Now I've reduced how much I have in the bathroom I don't need the shelves anymore from the unit!

    Also used up another shower gel and a moisturiser. Stocks continuing to deplete!
