So, today's the day my DD had her 9th birthday LUSH party! Thankfully I was too busy corralling kids about to look at anything for sale but I managed to come home with a mega sized comforter made with the leftovers (as they had chosen to make these lol)No more unnecessary toiletries Feb 2014 INS: 24 UU: 13.

Yorkshire is dull and not particularly warm either, I think the thunder is forecast for tomorrow.
Pixitotts - I agree with the others about the dates, I just use it how I see fit. One thing that really doesn't make sense is the nail varnish, I have some that are over 10 years old and still fine. I suppose if we all just had one of everything these dates would be irrelevant as we would finish them off well within the times.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Yes, i agree with the other posters, use your nose, eyes and judgement, though I do tend to change mascara more frequently. Especially if I get a NO7 coupon!

The heat's lovely if you don't have to work in it, but I'm sorry for those who do. I volunteer in a library and was surprised how many people came in today! I would have stayed in the garden, myself!Toiletries Starting Stash Nov 2013:205

I agree if I can't see a problem with it, look or fragrance I think it's ok. Though I do need to get rid of some so I think I've decided to work on a If I haven't used it in that time frame it's time it went. I have eyeshadows I wore to school in my make up box still, I think they can go! lol.
I guess in a way I'm lucky many of the make ups that go off quicker I'm allergic to most mousses, creams, liquid eyeliner, lip gloss anything like that just bring me out in a rash. Used to be lipstick too but that on seems to have passed now phew! lol.
I do have a benefit cream eyeshadow I seem to be ok with but it's smelled a bit iffy since I got it so never quite sure with that one....
Willowbee - thats a good point about clean make up brushes being more important! I must make sure to do mine before I go on holiday! and you are very good with your perfume. I have to be honest if it's a special one it doesn't last me long enough for it to go offI'm awful if I get a perfume I like
I can't stand the heat! I like cold, I like snow!! Hot does not make me a happy bunny

The heat is very oppressive here today, thankfully i've been in air-con!
sjprmc01 a Lush party?! That sounds AMAZING! What did you all do? Good that you got some freebies. I do like Lush but every time I go in I always feel very overwhelmed with the choice so end up coming out with little or nothing. Silly I know, but feel i need a mate to come in with me to show me the ropes! haha

Oh dear, went to asda and they had imperial leather bath cream down to 50p for 500ml. I transfer them to a pump bottle and use in the shower, never been able to fathom out why shower gel is more expensive than bath cream. Bought 4Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
