Please count me IN for Feb - and for the rest of the year, probably! I shouldn't be buying anything this month - except for toothpaste, which I don't count as I haven't a stash.
Beads are SO addictive!!!! ATM mine are all stashed in the roof space, but I am hoping this summer to get the tip that is the spare room turned into a craft room/study and be able to get at them. Rosemary - pleased that you are having fun beading, I met some lovely people doing it. One of them is now a guest presenter on Q with another of her craft interests.The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. (Abraham Lincoln)0 -
Would like to be in please!
Spent far too much to be considered healthy (or MSE!) last month, therefore am on a self imposed spending ban0 -
Woops I forgot that I had another uu this morning
Dr Haushka Rose Day Cream - this was a tiny tube which came in a mini trio set I won. WNBA too greasy for me and it made my skin red and irritated which is odd as it is for sensitve skin and my is not normally too sensitive.

Delurking on this thread to say thanks for all the inspiration. I have been managing a few UU's but at the moment I am still a bit scared to actually quantify my humungous stash.0

Go on divulge. Let us all drool in awe! Oh, and welcome to the thread. xBack for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

It is far too scary. I had to put up another bathroom cabinet and a shelf.
And I still have stuff on top of both (large) bathroom cabinets and all round the bath and sink-shelf.0 -

Started Off a S&G foamcall 500ml and I don't even like the smellI think I have another in stash too

Count me in again
7 INs for January :eek: not too bad considering it was the killer sales month.
5 UUs up which makes me feel a bit better (bad justification to myself being the reason I own so many products :rotfl:)
Hoping for no INs this month, we shall see!
Good luck everyone!Comper, Blogger & OS-erCompetition prizes: £6/£20150 -
Hi everyone, have a UU to report (and it's makeup!)
Estee Lauder Double Wear Mineral Powder - WBA, it worked really well as a foundation, stayed all day when paired with my Biore primer. However the colour was a little too pink for me, but as long as I brought it down my neck, it blended in ok.
Moving on to some Bare Minerals Matte foundation I found in my stash that I forgot about. There doesn't look like there's much left in it though so it might be a second makeup UU before long.
That being said, I have almost finished an eye shadow and an eyeliner so I might be on a roll!

Sanex 0% shower gel 8ml
Have just cut open my hand cream and there is quite a bit left to UU.0
