No Buying Toiletries in August Challenge!!!

saygoodbyetothese

Count me in too please! I have enough in my stash to last until the end of this year... or longer!

Not a newsflash for anybody I suspect, :D:o but mine is make up in general - and Bobbi Brown palettes in particular. I'm also prone to succumbing to anything new and exciting that Alison Young is flogging on QVC. (I've tried all the old favourite's stuff so I'm safe from most of that at least!)

A Mally TSV is always a danger time for me as well - and there's one this month! :eek:

What do you have to be careful of?

Count me in too please - I'm still too scared to even contemplate making a list of my stash :eek::eek::eek: although I am making progress ion the shampoo and conditioner department - I'm down to the following:-

In Use
H & S 2 in 1 shampoo
Boots anti dandruff shampoo
Boots Expert Dry scalp shampoo & conditioner
Nizoral X 2
Tresemme - blonde shampoo - decanted some time ago to smaller bottle
Johnsons baby shampoo (V large bottle)
Tigi Moisture Maniac shampoo & conditioner
Lush shine solid shampoo
deep cleansing conditioner - make n/k - (very very large bottle)Netto cheapy and not much good so dont know how to use this up

Not Yet Opened
Phil Smith big it up shampoo & conditioner
Pantene aqua light shampoo & conditioner sample (saving for holiday in september:))

To be fair though the dandruff shampoo's are DH's although the doc prescribed me the Nizoral as I keep getting seb wotsit dermatitis - think it's the Moisture Maniac!!!


**Just been in DS's room (he's gone back to Bristol - says there's no point in paying for a student house and not living in it) and found 2 big un-opened bottles of bed head for men clean up shampoo & conditioner:eek:

Jacks - for me it has to be moisturisers - facial and body - I have loads - as just mentioned far to many to even contemplate listing yet. I also have a foot fetish - in that I've almost as many foot products as I have facial :eek::eek::eek:

I have just lost my job, so I am going to join this . I have far too much stuff I'm ashamed to look at it sometimes. x

ETA: I've won an origins eye cream, 17 mascara and nail polish this week. Also have a No7 mascara to trial!! x

:wave: So sorry to hear this my lovely, but we found my Stash to be a godsend while we were unemployed. With money so tight it was great not to have to buy toiletries.

Have you got some samples or small sizes or things that are on their last legs that you can get used up first to clear the clutter a bit, give you a confidence boost and get you on your way?

Organising mine so I could see that it would be a year before I had to buy some things helped calm down my panicky feelings about being out of work.

If you wanted to you could always post your stash in stages. When I joined I did it in drips and drabs - partly because I was scared to face it all and partly because it took such a long time to do.

:beer: :jWelcome to the gang! :j :beer:

I am definitely going to post my stash up as it will probably shift me into action! I have a few things I can and will sell such as unused Chanel lipglosses and Estee Lauder foundation. I'm currently at my partners but I have so much stuff here too so will start by listing everything here! It's just shocking, I don't even know why I buy all this stuff...

I'm in again this month. As far as I can see the only thing I'll need is toothpaste, and possibly day moisturiser towards the end of the month.

2 UU to report- the last of the Grumpy Cow shower gel from Marie Claire went last night and a mini N-Spa Apple Mint one this morning. WIBA? The Grumpy Cow was lovely but far too expensive to actually buy so no, the N-Spa from Asda was delicious smelling but they don't seem to stock that one in the larger size but if they do then yes

I have at least 6 or 7 more in the stash so I won't be needing any for quite some time

Dyed my hair this morning from the stash (last one though) and its PY(T)NS :j

Good luck everybody :A

Posted earlier on July thread :

Fell off the wagon a bit in July as I stockpiled some Champneys stuff due to the 1/2 price sale. Family came out for holiday and I got a bottle of Champneys Oriental Bath stuff - lovely. Also 'fell' into Body Shop and got some items I forgot I had ordered (honest) so now I am back to having spare facial wash, clay masks etc.

On the other hand I looked at the free Body Shop lippy on magazine yesterday and put it back :T

Used up lots of the sample sized toiletries, so will get an update done and re-post to see how well I am doing.

Back in action this month!!
