Ooh I was going to try mine tomorrow, is it quite easy to use despite the residue?

Sorry for the delayed response! I wanted to enjoy the weather today! I really like the application process, but I'm just not impressed with the wax itself. There weren't enough strips in the pack for both half legs (never mind 4 lots of half legs), and because the wax doesn't wash off, you can't re-use the strips.

UU Eve Lom rescue mask, knowing the hype that surrounds Eve Lom I was excited to try this but it's not all that, it smells unpleasant and I didn't think it did anything different to a standard mask. Got another mini tube in the stash.

3x lush soap, 2 I have turned into laundry gloop successfully this time. I made some a couple of weeks ago and used a oxygenated stain remover. I left the mix to cool down and when I returned half an hour later there was more foaming mixture over the kitchen floor than in the bucket. I have made it several times over the last year or so and never had a problem, I think it must of been the stain remover, I have used a different one tonight and it worked fine. Anyway at least a quick use up of soap. The other went to my nan.
A sample of no drought dry shampoo, I can't stand dry shampoos so this has taken ages to use.

hello everyone!

sorry i've been MIA, life has been slightly mental over the past few months. i moved house (under threat of divorce if i didn't) then OH proceeded to ignore me for 2 months and spend all his time in the spare room on his playstation with our housemate drinking and spending all his money on booze and takeway then having the cheek to ask me for train fare to work on monday mornings and thinking my overdraft was his own personal payday loan company to bail him out. apparently, all of this was my fault so i'm now back with my parents and well shot of him!

i also got offered a training contract starting in september with the law firm i work for which i'm over the moon about! :j

Sorry to hear about your break up - I think a treat is quite acceptable under the circumstances.

i went a bit mad with my cheer up treats:o

Illamasqua complement palette - got for 50% off after seeing a flash sale code on twitter:T
Illamasqua hydra veil
Illamasqua blush up brush

Nuxe cleanser, toner and lip balm with a free bag with a mini moisturiser, toner, sachet of oil and mask in. bought for the grand sum of £3.49 as i doubled up tesco vouchers on beauty expert. turns out that OH's booze runs in Tesco meant I've apparently spent £1320 in there this quarter. considering my food budget was well under £100 a month due to it being one of the things to decrease the more i bailed him out and i went to asda as well for some of it, that a lot of alcohol!

also had a few UUs. most of my stash is full size now so gettiung through it is slowing down a bit:-
Liz earle energising shower gel - WNBA im going off the fragrance of this a bit.
urban decay primer potion - WBA this was in the old style bottle though so im glad they changed it, it so hard to get the last bits out of or know if there is anything left!
Clinique superbalm mini - TA, this started to smell funny1 this is the second superbalm ive had thats gone this way.
Nails Inc instyle nail polish - TA looked and this had separated in the bootle and gone all funny.
butter london nail polish - TA the cap had broken and it had leaked a bit and dried up
nails inc St James and hampstead heath - lost in the move, no idea where they are!
bioderma - HG i love this for taking make up off and when you need a quick cleanse, not very good on on waterproof make up though!
chloe love perfume - WBA, nice perfume! another in the stash


seeing as though i missed the talk about where my stash is, my toiletries stash is in some small plastic drawers in my bedroom and my make up is in a bobbi brown case. got some brill storage from ikea to organise my make up drawer - Godmorgen drawer organiser

Sorry to hear that you've had a rough time of it - sending you (((big hugs))) welcome back!

evilsquid - welcome back. I have had a couple of Clinique superbalms and they started to smell funny too, sort of damp and foisty smell.

I thought I may have had a body cream uu yesterday but I cut open the tube and found a good couple more uses left.

No ins for a while now (most unlike me) and although I am finding it hard I am hoping to break the habit. The thing I find the hardest is gwp offers and even though they all just sit in the stash I can't seem to resist them. I know I need to buy the bare minimum for about a year but I think that if I don't take advantage of these offers now they will never be available again.

I have a UU - Weleda rose cleanser, bought last year with a glitch for 5 items for £5 so WBA at that price. Otherwise not so sure, smelt nice, and texture was pleasant. The matching toner still has a few weeks left in I think!
I do have another set in the stash though

Trying to do online checkin with Ryanair and their system is down grr
