thanks I would not have a clue how to do the new thread!!!
waiting for DS2 and girl to come for lunch/early tea, not sure if we will get to dance tonight, could go tomorrow but DH says if we do we can't go out in the day to flowers show as I must not overdo things with my foot:(:(:(

Oh god, I need to be in. Had loads of plans for getting rid of stuff in May, and only managed 4 (I think)!! Isn't that terrible?
Feeling a bit tired after a late night out last night, so might use up a couple of bath/facial type things when I get home from work to kick June off to a good start. Although I have ordered some perfume which hasn't arrived yet. I also had a few INs in the post yesterday - some perfume oils and a sample of a Balenciaga perfume (which I love. Trying hard to resist buying a full size.)0 -
Hello all and many thanks Maddiemay for starting us off this month.
I had a really busy May - I did stick to the challenge but did have some NBIs for my birthday as one of my friends bought me a lovely L'Occitane set. However, the trend is still a reduction in my stash month on month so am pretty pleased. I won't get round to posting last months OUT but did manage a grand total of 19 so fairly pleased with that.
Have managed to start this month off as well with a UU this morning:
Trevor Sorbie mousse - this is my HG mousse - always stock up when it is on offer in Boots as I don't have a mousse stash (apart from the TS ones).
Hope you all have a great toiletry reducing month...0 -
Here is my update stash list now. It now only takes up 3 and a half pages now and when I started it was over 8. I had to put it in two seperate posts when I first started..lol.
Anyway, red items are in use as always.
Hoping to get another fragrance, an eye cream and a moisturiser used up this month. Big plans! I shouldn't need much except for new razer blades and I am out of shave gel too ( I am currently using some repurposed conditioner). But they are necessary ins for summer so I won't be counting them.

No buying toiletries Graduated May 2017Decluttered 2016 2469 items, 2017 1580 items :j2018 3060 itemsSealed Pot Challenge No 0380 -
May was an epic fail which ended with a overall gain of 49 items from when I started in January.
Despite my poor progress I am in for June - Thanks Maddiemay for starting the tread.
I will continue to tackle some stash relics alongside some of the nicer items to stave off boredom.
Unsurprisingly I dont think I need anything this month - I have planned ins from Birchbox and Glossybox and the remains of an online order from bath and unwind still to arrive.
However I already have ins to report courtesy of a handmade craft stall in the town centre today.
1 shower gel
9 bathbombs
3 revlon lipsticks from a 3 for 2 in Superdrug.No more buying toiletries0 -

UU
bath bomb - this was more of a bath melt - pleasant fragrance and no floaty bits WBANo more buying toiletries0 -
A UU:
1. Sanctuary body lotion 75ml. Not a fan of this, nice scent but IMO too thick for a lotion, takes a long time to rub in and absorb. I prefer the body butter. WNBA but have several more minis and a full size to get through still!MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -
A good start(ish) to the month.
IN's
Bronzing powder
Face moisturiser sample
UU's
Lil pud bath bomb WNBA
Bath salts individual sample WNBA
2 melting snowmen WNBA I like bath melts but find that spending 10 minutes after scrubbing the bath not so relaxing
flying fox shower gel WNBA been used to clean the bathroom with, great for getting bath melt of the side of the bath.
BS ginger shampoo WBA HG but have more so don't need anymore for now.
TA
Aquatic toothy tabs WNBA they had gone fuuny (still in dat) and I don't like them.
12 items out ebay, I might have a few more to declare if they sell.
There should only be another 20 something IN's this month including glossy, brich box (plus the free box for resubbing) plsu I am waiting for some products I have ordered. I have no other planned INS.0 -

This sounds really amazing! I don't live in glasgow (yet), but I will mention it to my friends who do. Mind you, I might not - I'll be really jealous if they get to go and I don't... Is the event taking place at the barnados?
Forgot to mention, had a tube of toothpaste come in today, but there's not much point in declaring that. However, I am proud that I went into a shop that sells everything naughty, and I came out with nothing but a tube of toothpaste.0
