No Buying Toiletries in May Challenge!!

Shadowsfall

Oh! What with all the Ep talk, I forgot to mention...

Just went to Boots to pick up a perscription.... and I resisted the beauty section (just!) and got OH some multi vits reduced to £1.99 instead. WAH! How good is that _party_

I did however buy two scotch eggs from Mr S on the way back to the office

p.s... want this!!! http://www.boots.com/en/Braun-Silk-epil-Xpressive-Pro-Wet-Dry-Body-Face-Rechargeable-Epilator-7681_1043426/ been looking for one for face - eyebrows are a tad tricky with my current body ep... left myself with half an eyebrow a few times!

Thanks shadows fall, i've been cleaning it but not removing the removable head t do so...I only use the one head for everything, it works.

c l a i r e, thats the one I have. I wish I'd waitd for that price! TBH, after the first couple of attempts I've just used it dry though....he wet reduced pain and made it convenient as used to shaving in the shower, but the dry is fine now.

Just a small use up to report - a bottle of Calvin Klein CK1 fragrance
This is my favourite day time smell - nice and clean and not too overpowering. Sorry to see it go.....

My goodness 75 shower gels! I've got quite a few kicking around (not sure how many exactly!) but it's a small number in comparison. At least you won't need to buy any more for a while :rotfl:I feel all virtuous now, especially as I went in to Boots tonight armed with a No. 7 voucher and decided not to use it and came out with nothing! My guilty secret is that I've got tons of conditioner (mainly Herbal Essences from when there was a Boots glitch). I haven't faced up to counting them yet but will confess all on here soon!

My recorded all time high was 92 shower gels so at least I'm heading in the right direction.

My recorded all time high of stash did stand at 743 items but I'm glad to say now stands at 424 items This is all stuff that has accumulated over probably the last 9 years :eek: so I'm slowly getting there.

Evening all,

Found the Ep talk a bit um, wincing too!

Went to Waitrose and didn't look down the toiletry aisle.:T No use ups. Lots of spluttering going on.

First post on this thread but follower from Jan.

At long last have finished my Vaseline Cocoa Butter Body Lotion - WIBA - No - was ok when applying but when it sank in/dried did not like how it felt on my skin had a strange feeling. Bad news I have at least another 8 of these left :eek: For now they are going to stay there as am going to try and finish something different next.

Hi there, could you donate or swap any of them with a friend or sis? Leave around the house to use as hand lotion? Give away as presents? Donate to charity? Best of luck, know how hard going it is when you have a product like that.

Hi all. I have been MIA for a couple of days, have just caught up with all your chat. Just reading through all the epilator posts makes me feel a bit faint... but they sound fab if you can handle the pain.

Hi all, very quick post to say ive been to the body shop:eek:. But i was really good and came out with a sample of the vitamin c/ revitalising serum, cause think i do actually need to start using one despite my resistance to adding another facial product to my morning routine. Will see how i get on, anyone used it??

Nabxx

I have used the Vit C moisturiser and didn't like it at all. I hated the smell and the consistency. Sorry! The serum is better (I've used the capsules and liked them) but I would advise you to get a good sample of the moisturiser before buying.


footymadgal - I will post the choc thread link for you xo

Just remembered that we finished a McCleans whitening toothpaste pump today too.
Replaced with a Tesco own brand whitening toothpaste.

Hi lynsey

did you ever post a photo of the 743 items? I would love to see it if so.
How can you have used up so much stuff?
