Itzybitzy, thank you so much for sharing that!! I feel much better about my stash!! By that I don't mean that there's room to buy loads more now btw

UU
Sainsburys Basics Cotton Wool: WIBA? Yes. Good price, does the job.

Aldi Lacura Cotton Wool - very impressed with these so far, and great value for money (my sister is back to working near an Aldi )

I have a dilemma, I have just realised due to a post of Facebook that I now have £10 on my Debenhams Beauty Card £5 that I earned and a free £5 which expires on 13th May. I am going to town tomorrow to pick a few things so might as well use the oportuntity to spend this now. As your all probably know, I don't really need anything. The only thing I have that is starting to run low is my Eye Makeup remover. I have been using the clinque take off the day and am half way through a mini so would need soon. Id I can use the full £10 credit on this it would only cost £5.50. The thing is I'm still trying to decide on my HG products and would love to try something new and treat myself to something more exciting (particulary cleanser wise, am nearly finished one mini and have a full size I don't like and a 30m of the Estee Lauder one from GWP still to try). So do I let myself browse and treat myself, or get the Clinique Take off the day.

Sorry made a mistake above re my cleansers, I believe I have the following Claudalie 30ml spluttering, Superdrug 250ml (open), Estee Lauder 30ml (GWP) and Liz Earle mini, ark 2ml (one use). Plus a few face scrubs, plus one pack face wipes.

Well, after looking at the video clearly I don't have a 'problem' - so I'm off shopping:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Could not believe the draw full of lashes!

But the best bit for me was the 'back up box'. Because obviously with all that stuff backups will be needed:D

I have another two weeks off work, and I'm really going to try and get my stash sorted. I keep saying that to myself, but honestly have no energy or concentration. Can't believe just how much stress jumbles up you brain/thoughts. Have not watched a movie/read a book since before christmas as I just can't concentrate for that long. So, I'm thinking a little bit of stash organisation each day - maybe 1/2hr that way at least I'm getting somewhere with it all.

Hope everyone is well today - rain has finally stopped here and the sun is trying to shine, hope it lasts!

is that the free £5 they gave for their beauty awards? if it is, its only redeemable against the products that won something so have a check to see what you can actually spend it on first.

When my sister went into Westfield a SA said she could use it off anything! :shhh: ....

She used hers on a product that was in the awards though, so can't verify that..! I'm still thinking what to treat myself with!

ETA: I lied! She just called and she used the free £5 and £5 she had earned to buy Flora Gardenia (not in the awards). HTH
