    Stuff i am currently using is in the bathroom, i have 2 small drawers in my dresser with face products, Lush stuff and other bits and pieces.
    Then i have the S&G tote bag box and hat box with hair products and body lotions. 2 Lush hatboxes, one with ballistics and the other with bubble bars.
    Then on top of my dresser i have 2 pink plastic drawers (poundland) and small wooden drawers (ikea) for my make up

    Then i have an over the door thing with shelves over the back of my bedroom door, full of shower gels, scrubs and more body lotion.

    Hello everyone!

    SJP - love the way you so casually reported you have had a baby girl and then listed your toiletries misdemeanours!! I had to read the comments from the other people to be sure you'd actually given birth (especially as I call my cat my little princess!) - many congratulations!! I guess you can advise us on baby products now - some baby products are brilliant for sensitive skins and I use Milton fluid for cleaning my kitchen!

    I have a hmmm - got a small plastic bag put through my letter box this morning asking me to tick a box and put it back out tomorrow morning if I want to try out a full sized sample of Nivea - whilst I like a freebie, this just seemed a bit odd - did anyone else get one?:cool:
    Less stuff, more life, love, laughter and cats!
    Even if I'm on the shopping threads, it doesn't mean I'm buying! Sometimes it's good to just look and then hit the CLOSE button!

    I have a basket for "in-use" bits in the bathroom, another beside my bed. I have a basket full of minis and one with perfumes in. And I have a huge drawer full of new stuff, which is packed to bursting point. Oh, and another box full of "gifting" supplies :o
    But just one bag with make-up. I don't have issues with make-up.

    I'm looking for a new shampoo and conditioner, and am tempted by BS Rainforest range. They have free delivery this weekend so I may get the little 60mls to try out. I'm looking for something sulphate and silicone free and they fit that bill.
    The Botanics for red hair that I have currently is driving me mad:mad: It (or should I say, I) makes such a mess, it looks like the shower screen from Psycho, but in colour:eek::rotfl:
  • afternoon ladies,

    what a busy lot we are!
    congratulations SJP on the birth of your baby girl :beer:

    and (very) belated happy birthday wishes to VALM and Trudij

    I have chucked a couple of redundant items today - collection 2000 pressed powder - way too orange and a benefit lipgloss which, apart from being too pale had clearly gone off if the smell was anything to go by!

    Still no INS :j:j

    Not had this one, but a few years ago, had one through the door for Lindt chocolates! They were yummy!

    I'm glad to see that caring for a newborn baby hasn't hindered your ability to shop:D We women are fantastic at multi-tasking aren't we?:rotfl:

    I hope all is well with u and your little :A

    Feeding a baby is a good excuse for internet shopping... :p

    Thanks for all the congrats x
