I have some ins and outs to declare.
INS
7 elemis items ( I blame Sunday girl, well that's the excuse, but thank you posting it on the grab it thread)
1 perfume
Whoops, sorry!Though what's your excuse for the perfume? You can't blame that one on me...
Hi my names Sally and Im a beauty product hoarder!
I would like to join this group if possible! I am going to spend tomorrow afternoon/evening going through all my stashes and then post what I have here. Moved house 2 months ago and havent unpacked alot of it yet, so I really need to sort it all out!
For example I bought 2 packs of facewipes then had a quick rummage and found three more unused packs in my stash that I had forgotten I had bought so its just getting ridiculous now!
Welcome sally :hello: You've come to the right place, we're a very friendly bunch and we try not to lead each other astray too often! I was exactly the same as you but I now know exactly what I have in my stash and have seen a noticeable reduction since I joined the challenge a few months ago - and lots more spare cash too!evilsquid1603 wrote: »My decree nisi is being pronounced next week. I've started to feel much happier recently, I was scared of suddenly being on my own again but it isn't nearly as bad as I thought!
I have gone a bit mental buying stuff recently, mainly because I've had more money because it wasn't being given to exOH! I nearly bought one of the new mac sets in the Trafford centre last night, walked away but I know I'll prob go and fawn over it again at some point!
Pleased to hear you're coping so well, relationship break ups are never pleasant but in my experience the fear of being alone is often one of the worst things - but the reality isn't normally as bad, like you've pointed out. It's great that you're able to find positives, and I don't think anyone would blame you for treating yourself to the MAC setMFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -

I'm on a bit of a roll, determined not to buy anything this month at least until I am back into a negative position with more out than ins overall.
UU Clarins - Extra Firming Body Lotion 100ml this was free to me as part of a GWP and I would never buy this product. It's nice enough lotion but had no noticable effects and doesn't even smell nice. I don't mind shelling out good money for face and hair stuff but couldn't see my self ever paying out such big bucks for body lotion.

I had that same problem last night Rosemary, when I was trying to post my list. It finally went through but very strange...
The butterball was lovelyIt is full of cocoa butter so really softens the skin. Would buy again.

It just did it again:(:(:(
It wasn't a very long post, rather a detailed one replying and offering good wishes to several named individuals.
I think in effect I was "timed out" as I started to write and then was called away by OH to help with something outside and was quite a long while later before I finished my witterings!
Any ways, welcome to new girls, hugs to those that need them, good luck to those facing major life changes, one foot in front of the other and keep busy are my two important life rules.:D
VALM - my OPI wishlist is
Magazine Cover Mouse
Alcatraz Rocks
It's all San Andrea's Fault and
Wharf Wharf Wharf.
Several of my nails are in a very poor condition, layering across and breaking easily. (probably down to health issues) I have found that the textures and glitter finishes are really tough and give them much more protection.
My current routine is nail envy, 2 coats of colour, Perfect Formula Gel Coat and finally more Nail Envy every other day.
Have a good Sunday, off to do a little gardening for Ma, then back to do more on my own garden, all helped by Miss MM (the four legged one in my avatar), thinking I am out there solely to play ball with her!The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. (Abraham Lincoln)0 -
That's very strange about the post problems! I don't post very long posts so I've not come across that problem as of yet. Very odd!
A couple of UUs to report..
Morrisons Cocoa Butter Body Scrub - This was very very old, but didn't seem to have gone off or anything? It smelt quite nice and did the job!
Wilkos Cleansing Face Pads (50 in pot) - Again, another item that I've had for years, but didn't want to just TA. I used these up on my neck instead of my face. Seemed to do the trick, but probably wouldn't buy this type of item again.
Oh it's so nice to have a bit more space once things are used up!0 -
UU:
9. Body Shop Skin Defensives Exfoliating Mask 10ml - WNBA, nice enough but i have so many face scrubs to get through first. Not even sure you can still buy this as it was a real stash relic, part of a mini skincare kit and think I must've had this for about 7 years (it was one if the items I found at the back of the airing cupboard last week)
10. BS Moisture Mask 10ml - ditto.
11. John Frieda Hair mask sachet 25ml - one if the freebies, did the job but WNBA, no need and I think the sachets are poor value too.MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0
