    Omg I just had a moment of madness and bought 10 liquid/cream eyeshadows?! I wanted to replace my old shadows and just chucked every colour in the basket. These better be worth it. Will list later. :eek: :(

    IN Laura Geller Spackle. Bought from FB group. My FAB one will be finished tomorrow and this one will replace it.
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

    kadison My stash has 104 items in it and it's worth over £600 :eek: It's quite shocking to see how much I've spent on things. My worst category is skincare. I really am a skincare addict. I really need to curb my spending.

    I've never dared count mine. Not with two bathroom cabinets, stacker unit, box o' samples, two bags and three big shopping bags full of the stuff.

    That's not that bad, are you counting make-up in the stash? Just so I can post my comparative total......

    Have you ever finished one of these? They take a good 9 months to a year!

    I've watched a YouTube video recently whereby there is a calculator to work out how long a certain category will take you to use up, the one I saw was for blusher. I think I'll try this tonight but by my reckoning these eyeshadow will take you 10 years to finish if used consistently. Hope this helps.

    I actually don't own any makeup so I'm not including it in my total.
