Wow, I have total stash envy!! Is it fair to say you're something of a Lush fan then?

Could say that and I have found more items another 25ish (only 7 lush). My house is breeding but it does smell nice.
I am going to sort some stuff to go to a charity, I have lots of unopened things and my sister will take them a charity local to her that are always after bodycare items. In my defence I do not have a make up or nail varnish stash. I do have a big problem.

Was just wondering....
What alternative uses can body butter and shower gel be used for..if at all? These are the two things I'm desperately needing to reduce without throwing them away. Tried googling it but got nothing at all!

how about for shaving?

Hi ladies, just caught up with four pages, you have all been busy.
Hello to new girls, hi again to returnees, belated birthday wishes, and apologies for anything I have missed:o

Non UU's or In's yet, not doing too well with the body moisturising, but trying to wear a little make up and perfume each day.

I have resisted all TSV's and the attractive e-mails offering me all sorts of lovely items. My only buys have been toner - necessary and gas for my heated hair brush.

**tracey**

I have uu 2 small tubes of l'occ foot cream, wba but I will be using ordinary body cream on my feet to use it up.

I also resisted the Elemis tsv at the weekend although I was very tempted.

UU Weleda Pomegranate serum WMBA
UU Weleda pomegranate face cream WMBA both mini tubes.

Opened a Rituals shower foam this morning, smells fab!

Those sock puppets are amazing!!

I have to buy a new foundation soon but other than that, I should have no more IN's

I also sat down and had to really think about my UU's over the last week or so that I have forgotten about.

UU:
1. Lush retread hair conditioner - wba as soon as I'm done with what I'm using now
2. Lush love lettuce face mask - wba definitely, love the exfoliating power on this one
3. Lush enchanter bath bomb - I loaded up on this as it's my favourite and it's soon to be discontinued, I have 3 more and thinking of getting a few more soon

GA's: Donated 24 nail polishes to the staff room so my colleagues can paint their nails during their break and prepared a gift box for 2 friends (20+ items each)

Thanks for that.
I never ever by shaving foam/gel. Always have used spare shower gels that I have.
It may sound strange but I really dont like shower gel lol. I can't really put my finger on why. The textures perhaps?

Evening all and congrats to Ruby!

I have some UUs to report....

Clean & Clear Morning Energy Energising Facial Scrub 150ml - WNBA, it wasn't made for my skin type and was too gel-like
Femfresh Wash 250ml - WDBA, HG product
Radox Original bath soak 500ml - WMBA, love the scent but have tonnes of bath/shower stuff in the stash
Soft & Gentle Body responsive deodorant 150ml - WNBA, have 8 more in the stash to use first!
Ted Baker Body Wash 250ml - WNBA, nothing special

Another couple of UU. It was a Calvin Klein, CK One shower gel. Wouldn't buy this, although it was perfectly nice. It just came with a perfume my mum got as a gift but she prefers a bar of soap to shower gel so never used this herself.

I also used up my Aldi hairspray - think it was the extra hold one. Really liked this. Gave enough of a hold with no stickiness and didn't smell terrible either like some hairsprays do, I find. Cheap too which is always a bonus!

Forgot actually that I threw away a black nail varnish I had (Miss Sporty) as it'd gone too cloggy and was too far gone to rescue it! Really liked this before it went bad though - gave a really good colour even with one coat.
