    HE ignite my colour intensive mask(half price)
    Nivea face wipes

    S&C are about to run out so will need later this week, no facewipes in stash so also needed( usually use hot cloth cleanser/ cream cleanser but tend to get lazy when returning home from xmas nights out!!)

    Am sat in the bathroom compiling my stash list.... getting a bit scary!

    About the only things I don't seem to hoard are anything teeth or hair removal related - i.e. the really dull stuff that you aren't going to get in lots of different perfumes.

    On the positive front found a UU from this morning - Origins Never and Dull Moment Face Scrub - used it up as a body scrub as it's too harsh for my sensitive skin. WNBA.

    That's exactly what I did with my battered mini soaps, I used them for Laundry Gloop Worked perfectly.

    I don't have sensitive skin but gloop has many recommendations from those who do. I prefer the idea of gloop to powder for old mini soaps, being very hard they probably wouldn't dissolve as well in powder form.

    Thank you mcculloch, I've checked the link and found 4 of the 12 mini soaps weigh 100g so a good start to reducing that stash.

    indiepanda I seem to have collected 7 mini tubes of toothpaste and 4 full-sized ones which were for trials. I don't use hair removal creams but you're right, they never appear as an offer or freebie.

    Just wondering, my small amount takes up a drawer, where on earth do some of you store all your products? I think you must have a whole room devoted to them! :D

    I've got one of those big plastic drawer units from Argos and I keep it in the spare bedroom :D

    First UU of the month - an OPI start to finish base and top coat. I had two on the go and both were under half full so I poured one into the other.

    WNBA - it comes out too thick and takes too long to dry, am using a separate top and base coat from Seche which seems better, will UA the OPI as a clear polish for my finger nails (I rarely put colour on them as it's too high maintenance but I usually have coloured toe nails).

    By the way, does anyone had a good idea for getting stuck lids off nailpolish bottles? I have another start to finish and the bottle top is jammed on, suspect with dried nail polish. I've tried using nail polish remover round the cap to loosen it but its just not budging.

    If nail varnish remover didn't work, try shutting the lid of the bottle in a door jamb and carefully twisting the bottom of the bottle while the door is held in place. Be careful though! :eek:
