    Rosemary your L'occitane stuff sound lovely, enjoy.

    I have another uu, my BS Love etc shower gel has gone, am so glad as I am not that much of a fan and really need a change. Moving on to a 50ml coconut and lime shower gel which is part used so that should be gone soon too.

    I'm starting to think that TBS Earth Lovers shower gel isn't really for me. Was trying to use Sulphate/Paraben free products but its not agreeing with my skin. I always get the odd spot on my chest area at that time of the month but I seem to permanantly have a massive cluster of them there since I started using it. Will finish it up like the good graduate I am but will probably just buy whatever is the cheapest when this one runs out!

    It would really help me if they didin't put toiletries and cosmetics in should pretty packages. I have a ridiculus number of items in my stash that I bought on impulse just because they looked pretty.

    Hi all

    I would very much like to join as I have a fairly sizeable stash but am slightly intimidated by the idea of having to post my stash here - can I just join while using up the stuff and not having to list it all?

    It has been a long and depressing winter and I have over-indulged in my love for Clarins, so I have bought loads of products, especially when they had the gifts on offer if you buy two or more products. As a consequence I have lots of face creams and various other stuff.

    I have also taken advantage of both Liberty's and Peter Jones Aveda offers of redeemable treatments against products so I have enough shampoo to wash the hair of the whole of London, several times around!

    Nobody really uses deodorant in my home and I have a fair amount of soap and shower gels, not industrial quantities but it should see us through July. I know that DH and DS have enough shaving cream to see them through the month, too.

    Do I qualify for joining?
    Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).

    Whatever works for you! I have neither the time or inclination to draw up a full list of my products but I still chime in with my UU's and falling off the wagons :)

    Thank you, I feel more comfortable joining in then! Hopefully I shall find inspiration here and no longer need to go to John Lewis Oxford Street to compensate for the lack of summer! :-)
