I'm in, too, but where did our graduate list go.mcculloch29 wrote: »..... I think I might graduate by the end of next year, but I would hate to leave, IYKWIM.
My Bad - I'll hunt down the last month it was posted and add it to the first post
I know what you mean about wanting to graduate but not wanting to leave - I think I'm gonna look on it like AA - I might complete my challenge but I'll still need the support to make sure I don't slip again
ETA: re-added the graduate list and also added links to the last 6 months challenge threads so everyone can refer back for stash lists/product reviews etc if they need to0 -
I'm back in for this month
Will try to make a list of what I have later! Don't really want to though...there's too much to look through...lol!
I have a few splutterers so I think I will have some UUs this weekI need to have a proper pamper evening soon!

Buche de Noel is wonderful, a bit like Angels on Bare Skin, an exfoliating cleanser. It smells amazing too. I tend to use it in the morning in the shower. Personally I would recommend going for Buche de Noel as it's a limited edition festive product, whereas Ultrabland is all year round. It depends on your skin type though.
My thoughts exactly - I liked Ultrabland when I was using it as a cleanser, but I prefer the solid cleansers because they are exfoliating. I'm really enjoying Buche de Noel at the moment, so I'd recommend getting that because its a limited edition.In the end the journey's brought joys which outweigh the pain.

little travel bottle of mixed up shampoos that were splutterers...just one to use on odd days in
rescue oil bottle
little bottle of shave balm
quite a random list of items that are annoying me now! they'll have to go asap!0 -
Used up a sachet of Elemis foot cream last night- thik this was a free sample, nice but not mind blowing. And used one of those tubes of conditioner you get with hair dye.
So 2 freebies gone.

May I join please?
I lurked for a couple of months, and boy you were an inspiring and interesting bunch, and I did really well with reducing the massive amount of stuff.
But my daughter left home on Sunday, which was so sad, but she has bequeathed me her wardrobe full of toiletries so Im more than back to square one.
And as it was unexpected her moving out, Id treated myself to a smallish(honest) Body shop order which I didnt think would last long as she nicks all my nice things, so I will need to use all that up by myself....
So please can I join? I need cheering up
Thanks

Welcome elmer. Of course you can join. Sad that our Daughter has left home but it's an exciting new beginning for her I'll bet. You get the exciting new beginning of using up all your smellies and pampering yourself

I just nearly cut my blasted finger off. Ouchtea has got an added extra of B+. I did have a little chuckle to myself, only me, Mrs glass half full, eternal optimist could have that blood group eh?
