    I want to join but my list is too long to join!
    Could I join and just list my used ups?

    Of course, welcome! My stash list is on the first page, I think you'll see you're in good company, tbh I've posted it to make myself face up to just how much I have!

    TA last night:
    TA Essence to the moon and back eyeshadow palette - I have used this maybe twice since I bought it, I swatched it last night and they all looked terrible, so I imagine they are past their best as it was super cheap when I bought it and I think in future if I really want to do an eyeshadow look I will purchase a better quality single pot. I now own one eyeshadow!
    TA Nivea suncream - I have had this for much, much longer than is advised to keep suncream and if it doesn't protect me properly then what is the point.

    TA over the weekend - that Body Shop Brazil Nut body butter, I sniffed it again to be sure and bleurgh - not gone off, just not a smell I like at all! Replaced with a Righteous Butter as I had planned and already used that twice since I got it out so all good there!

    Hi everyone. I was in Paris last week and visited Sephora and resisted the urge to buy anything but their own brand brightening concealer to try it out.

    I have also uu'ed Origins A Perfect World Antioxidant Moisturizer. This was LHJ and a really good moisturiser for winter. A little goes a long way. I don't need any creams at the moment but would repurchase in the future.

    Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream - this does a good job and lasts a long time. For now I am filling an empty Clinique pot with DD's unused eczema creams and using those as hand creams but I hope I can find a glycerine hand cream in a glass or metal container when I need to buy.

    Delta13 I LOVE Molton Brown stuff - can only justify it if I get it as a gift though, or as a freebie when buying something as a gift from someone else. (That's why I'm currently sitting at my desk with my hands smelling of their glorious hand cream!)
