Haven't been on here recently. Been a bit frustrated at how slow the stash is going down.
Two UU when sun was out
Image Protection+ SPF 50 moisturiser - WMBA, liked the feel of this on, didn't feel like a suncream at all. It's expensive compared to ones from Boots etc but it is a reasonable size. If can get it on an offer probably will buy again.
Clinique Face sunscreen SPF50 - was ok but WNBA
In the meantime still have loads of suncream, now just need the nice weather to come back :rotfl:
Also finished a standard Colgate toothpaste and a mouthwash so guess it could be worse.0 -

Philip Kingsley Elasticiszer Travel Size

I have two uu
Prada Candy Body Lotion 50ml - this came with the perfume. It was really nice actually, it sank in quickly and left a satin finish on the skin and was very strongly scented too.
Embryollise Lait Creme Concentrate 75ml - WBA, this leaves my skin feeling comfortable, sinks in well, doesn't break me out and makeup goes on really well afterwards. It is in a metal tube too which is a plus - shame about the plastic cap though.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

A few INs today:
Paula's Choice Resist Weightless Advanced Toner 118ml
Paula's Choice Skin Recovery Enriched Calming Toner 190ml
Paula's Choice Resist Anti-Aging Eye Gel 5ml
LookFantastic had 25% off for the first 250 customers this weekend to use a certain promo code, and the Eye Gel was a free gift for buying two Paula's Choice products. I've been bad. I'm going to be good and not buy anything until I need something and I have no back ups in my stash.0 -
One OUT this afternoon:
First Aid Beauty Facial Radiance Pads (28 pads)
I sold this to someone on Instagram just for the postage as I don't get along with Glycolic acid which is one of the acids in this.0 -
So, I thought it would be interesting to recount my stash. This is all non-make up and nail products and not including items in use (I'll put the number of items previously recorded in January first followed by today's number:-
Shower gels (including one soap) 14 full size now 4 (3 in use)
6 travel sized and now 5
I do have a box with some more travel sizes in but not sure if I will declutter as the packaging is hard to use.
Body scrubs 3 now just 1 in use
Lotions 5 now 2 with 2 in use
Handcream 6 now 2 in use
Handwash 4 now 1 with 2 in use
Cleansers - my stock of wipes has increased to 4 with 1 in use but this is a staple I repurchase.
Have 1 full sized evening Cleanser
Toners 1.5 with 2 in use - the 1.5 is decanted part of Murad Toner.
Moisturiser- all travel sized 7 with 1 in use and full sized in use. Again, I repurchase this as staple and have seen increase.
Eyecream 2 both in use
Dry shampoo 1 in stash 1 in use
Shampoo 2 in use
5 x LUSH bubble bars
I have the following items in use with no back up :-
Daytime Cleanser
Eye make up remover
Cotton pads
Deodorant
Serum
Mask
Conditioner
Pretty pleased with progress.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!

Welcome Robi90.
VALM - your stash seems to be under control to me. Mine will be as soon as I get to a reasonable amount of shower gel, body lotion and conditioner, these are the only problem areas aside from makeup and I have stopped concerning myself about that, I don't really buy it anymore and I will just plough on with what I have.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler
