The link Noelphobic put up... (Wonder if it's the person who represented my ex-husband in the divorce court, Noelphobic? I got the house, maintenance (in theory, at least) and a chunk of his pension. 'Nuff said. )

I doubt it. This 'person' is allegedly an employment barrister (or the Messiah according to their followers!) Knowing my luck, if I ever need an employment barrister - which I very much hope that I don't - then I'll end up with them. :eek:

Did you do your stash list in small print so it wouldn't look as bad? :eek:

Yes, I am jealous in case anyone was wondering. :rotfl:

Currently using Simple face wipes. I don't usually use face wipes but keep them in for stay overs in hotels and whatnot. However, I seem to have two packets open. Doh! Double cleansing day and night!

UU for today is a sample of Nivea Q10 Pore Refining Day Cream. WNBA strong smell, made little peels of goo on my skin and I have an itchy forehead. Boo.

Ok, I have been shopping and am back home, made it quick to avoid any other temptations.

Ins using Debs beauty card points -

Clinique airbrush concealer - wanted this for ages and this seemed a good time to try it.

Dior pallette, comprising of primer, brow shadow, 3 eyeshadows, eyeliner and mascara.

I had to put £6.66 (spooky) towards it so that came out of this months £10 budget. I am feeling very pleased with myself as there were tons of other offers in Debs, particularly the Elemis duchess of spa set, but I just don't need it.

Had a look in Boots and they had no items with 75% off, no Gok sets but they did have Sanctuary ones. I wish they had the same offers across the board rather than one store has such and such an offer and the next one doesn't.

Haha! I just think it looks neater as it's such a big list! I'm sure I have more Lush stuff hiding in my cupboard as well. I'll add them if I ever get into it! There is a mountain of ironing blocking my way at the moment!

Ran out of washing liquid this morning, so decided to wash everything with Snow Fairy instead! :rotfl: Good way of helping to use up the stash!

moneyless_mac

Am including everyones toiletries in my challenge so:
11. Boots baby wipes
12. Pack of pills
13/14 Espa energising shower gel and body lotion minis WNBA not very energising and the fragrance wasnt great either.
15. Body shop lip balm TA had a queer smell

And some ins
1. Lip balm (for my daughter as she always seems to lose them)
2. H&S shampoo (for my husband)
3/4/5/6/7 Samples from Paulas choice (thanks Helen1971 for the suggestion)

Well I'm making a bit of progress on the stash:

First off when I did the count and said there was no make up, now that I've gone back to write down exactly what I have I see there are a couple of items I got free with sets, gifts etc.

So as they are unopened they are going to the charity shop today:

GA:

Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Punch Bowl Lip Gloss
Soap and Glory Mascara
Fitflop Red Nail Polish
Sally Hansen Navy Blue Nail Polish


UU:

Vaseline Pocket Tin 20g
M&S La Maison de Senteurs Fleur d'Oranger Hand Lotion WIBA? Yes, it had a lovely smell and was not greasy.
Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel. I had this since last year and was using it on and off throughout the year so it's just run out. Will probably get one again next Christmas.
Elemis Lime and Ginger Salt Glow. This was nice, my skin felt soft and moisturised after it. Got it as a present from my mother. WBA.
Guinot Biological Radiance Peeling Gel 15ml. This left my skin feeling nice and smooth. I would buy again, but it is expensive, I got this one for free and I have plenty of other facial products to use up first so it will be a while before I consider it again.
Giorgio Armani Regenessence Multi Corrective Rejuvenating Cream 50 ml. WIBA? Probably, but it's not in my price range and there are cheaper products out there that I think do the same job.


A bit of background. I was at a corporate awards thing about a year ago and at the end of the night we all got a goody bag of stuff going home(no buying toiletries heaven!). There was a box of Guinot products in it which I've just come to the end of (see above). Actually now that I come to think of it, the two nail polishes were in it as well.

Earlier on in the night there was a draw and our table won a bag of goodies which was raffled as a set between all the people (all women) at our table and my name was pulled out.

The bag contained 11 Giorgio Armani skincare and cosmetic products. The irony of not wearing any make up was not lost on me. The stuff in the bag was valued at €750.

So I gave my mother the perfume; my jaw dropped when I looked it up online and it was selling for €230 and my brother got the cologne. A friend who was with me on the night got eye shadows and foundations etc. I ebayed a lipstick and kept the remaining facial skincare products.

So I'm coming to the end of them now.

So off to a good start. 10 items gone from the stash.

Avoided the temptation to spend in Boots on things I really did not need, thanks to this thread.

OH did buy me 2 dry shampoo sprays from Mr T, so that's 2 INs but they are my HG product as my hair is so fine if I wash it every day it goes limp but if I don't its greasy. If I use products for fine hair I can't get a comb through it even if I use a conditioner, so find dry shampoo the best solution. I don't like the new B^tiste sprays but Mr T do a brand that is half the price of B and works just as well.
