Another UU to report :
BareMinerals Buxom lip gloss Eva - I like these lip glosses as I like the minty tingle when you apply them. However, I have absolutely no need to buy any lipsticks/glosses as I still have 170 :eek: in my stash (including another Eva). This is the year I am really going to be ruthless and any lipsticks that don't suit me are going to be TA. Watch this space ladies.......
Have a great week everyone.0 -
Oh dear not a good start to the week.
Ins
3 x FCUK Pure bodylotion (reduced in Mr B's to £2.12 & 3 4 2)
3 x Zoya Nail Varnish (no excuse, I just wanted them)
1 x Stila felt tip eyeliner (again I just wanted it, but has got fab reviews)
***takes cup of tea to the naughty step***
How long does that lot get me on the naughty step???0 -
Ins today, my free gift from Amarya
Santaverde
30 ml medium aloe vera cream
30 ml extra rich beauty elixir
Well its a lovely package, not opened them to try yet, but glad I didnt pay the £56 asking price for something so, well, small!0 -
Hi All! I've been doing this challenge since the start of the year and still no ins! Although I haven't set foot in any Boots/Superdrug etc!
What I have found is that it has given me a new enjoyment of actually USING the products rather than just buying and looking at them! Also, I'm managing to focus on using one bottle at a time rather than having 6 shower gels open and using a different one everyday!
Have UU small bottles of Sanctuary hand cream (a bit too greasy) and No 7 Cleanser (the one that's always free in the gift sets). Moved on to S&G hand cream which I prefer and another of the same cleanser (with still another left in the stash). Not overly keen on the cleanser, but it's ok for a bit of a wipe before bed (unless I've been wearing foundation)Virtual Sealed Pot Challenge #148 - £59.93
Crazy Clothes Challenge # 103 - £84/£200 £30 Coat/£12 shirt/£23 jeans/£6 t-shirt/£13 2 x tops
Shoes £79/£100: Cowboy boots, canvas pumps, re-heal boots/ £25 safari shoes0 -
A UU this morning:
TBS cocoa butter body butter: WIBA? Yes, I love the smell and the body butters are so moisturising. Not for a while though as I stocked up on various body butters in TBS sale! Now onto a S&G Righteous Butter.0 -
Hello Ladies!!!
I have internet connection and I'm back- yey!
It's been a very lonely two weeks, only able to keep up with internet stuff while at work. I really missed coming on here and catching up with you ladies. However, I was slightly suprised that I ahve 27 pages to catch up with - looks like I'm on the sofa with the cats for the rest of the afternoon.

Hi all
I have a question: did you all make a list ?
I think this would take me too long as i have literally hundreds of products in my bathroom . I was thinking maybe i just start by clearing one box at a time.
Good start last weekend : I threw away a nail varnish that i couldn’t open, a nail file that was broken and a nail buffer that was overused and used up 2 sample products of body cream.:T
I think i have to pick up the pace as this barely makes a dent in my collection.CC consolidated to £3400
Loan[STRIKE] £12770[/STRIKE] £7150 :eek:

I am sure that you won't be out there for long, there is bound to be one or two of us queing up to displace you very soon.;)The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. (Abraham Lincoln)0 -
Couple more UUs and I have loads of splutters so Ill be having a manmouth stash shop this week:)
Olay beauty Fluid, had this on the go since October, using a couple of times a day, WBA, cheapish and will eb good as a light moisturiser for summer.
Boots lip salve- WBA again but didn't need to as I borrowed BFs:DDebt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
Bubble32 - I didn't make a list, I had a look at my stash to see the full extent of the damage and I reorganised it so that it was easier to access.
I think thats the point really, to know what you have.0
