Already had 3 UU though and will keep up with my list so I dont rebuy when I have 20 products already:)Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
All my splutterers are still spluttering.
I was intrigued by the prospect of a "60 second dry" for nail polish, so have one as an NBI, gave it a go - review hereErma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0 -

hello all - in again this month please!
Starting off with....
OUT
1: percy wonder balm - WDNBA, this has been a hard slog to finish as I just didn't see any benefit from it at all!
2. Elemis toner - given to a friend as I have had it for ages and have no interest in using it
3. Benefit Mascara - this is my HG, have an IN below to directly replace it, have no others in stash
IN:
1. Benefit mascara - direct replacement.
Out: IN 3:1:)
I'm not going to do a pp list this month, just concentrate on using up open items.walk 2018 miles in 2018 - 781 of 2018

It's a subreddit on Reddit where Skincare Addicts swap or sell unused or unwanted skincare items to other users instead of wasting the product or paying full price for something that might not work out.0 -
Hello Durham visitors! I live in Durham. It's a great place to visit, hope you enjoy it. It's not such a great place to live - too studenty in termtime, too empty in the holidays. I dream of moving to Birmingham :rotfl:
UU: Original Source shower milk in sweet apple & vanilla - this was lovely!
UU: Phil Smith shampoo - this was rubbish! Dried my hair out horribly.
And a sort of IN. I had a Bobbi Brown blusher on my stash list but I hadn't seen it for years so I counted it as an OUT. Found it today under the spare room sofa. Boo!0
