    morning all and happy new year!

    I am SO in for the challenge again! Actually didn't get as many cosmetics as I thought I would at christmas - no bad thing! and actually OH was very sweet and bought me sanctuary shower gel and bath stuff saying - I didn't get you moisturiser as I know you have loads! bless him.

    i will try and make a list of things in the stash this evening.

    the only thing I know I am going to need - and pretty soon is face wash. I was wondering what you all use? I used to use dermalogica and am thinking of going back to it. I had very strong drugs a cuple of years ago for adult acne and have had much better skin since but still have very oily skin, so I have to admit it is one of the products I don't mind paying for if its good! Any ideas?

    I feel so much better reading this thread to knwo that I am not the only one will millions of toiletries, creams and potions. My husband refuses to clean the bathroom cos he cant work out what is what and where everything goes - but that could be an excuse.

    I did try this last year, but just on body moisturisers and I lasted til June.

    Think I will list mine out and work my way through it - thanks for the kick up the bum
    :T
  • A massive UU for me of Tresemme Brunette Shampoo 900 ml :eek:. WIBA? Yes, as it suits my hair but I won't buy the 900 ml again, it takes up too much room in the bathroom/stash! I've got a HE shampoo which only has a few uses left too and so I will target that for my next few shampoos and then I will move on to the JF shampoo that I had for Xmas.

    I got the mascara on the 3rd of jan,think it is on till about 16th but there should be a thread about it somewhere,it was a full size which surprised me as I thought it would be a tiny one....pity I threw out all my old ones in a decluttering frenzy recently,had to give up a gold one but hardly used it as did not show up very gold anyway,only have 2 mascaras on the go now so don't think will be able to get anymore but worth knowing that clinique do this offer and will save old ones for the future:)

    A couple of free sample UU this morning

    Max Factor Second Skin in Natural - face felt lovely and smooth when I'd put in on but the pores on my cheeks next to my nose are more visible than with my usual foundation so WNBA

    Nivea Soft Moisturising Cream - nice and thick but rubs in well with no residue, would definitely buy this
