    Hi dolly84, I would like to join :)

    I haven't got a list of my entire stash written out but I know what I have (too much!!).
    I'm not sure what I would like to use up. Instead I know what my necessary purchases will be for this month.
    I only need toothpaste, conditioner, hair gel/mousse & possibly deodorant. So the plan is to only buy those items!

    Let me know if I should post my stash list :)


    Welcome. As VALM says you can do a stash list if you like, we are very friendly here and not very strict with the rules :D


    VALM - thank you. The remover I have is an acetone one so I will try your method.

    I was contacted last night by the Facebook Seller who sold me the Vitamin C serum saying she had found another one so I have purchased this from her, it’s a great saving - £6. Including postage as opposed to £37 RRP.
    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!

    My first UU of the month:

    Virtue Recovery Shampoo & Conditioner 7ml sample WPNB as a full size. I got this sample on my Space NK order, and it was alright but a bit too basic for what I imagine a pricey shampoo and conditioner.
  • Thanks dolly84 and VALM

    I have started writing out the list but not finished yet as there is just so much!
    Almost at 100 and haven't started on make up yet! :eek:

    Hopefully I'm not alone in having this much!

    Got my PP list for February - I went for 10 items to start with

    Prai decolletage cream
    Lush vanishing cream
    Lush herbalism
    Kiehl's rare earth masque sample
    Scrub love coffee scrub
    Aesop hydrator sample
    Aesop parsley seed cream sample
    Noughty wave hello shampoo
    Noughty wave hello conditioner
    Lush eau roma

    1 IN for the month from my previous list - toothpaste :)

    I Used up a Prai sample cream last month. Do you like it?

    Two out used up to report. Radox bubble bath 500ml and Garner Hair Rescue 500ml.


    Would buy both again but until I’ve worked through stocks.

    I'm back again for February.
    No purchase INs but have a serum arrive for testing.
    1 out of a deodorant roll on, can't remember the make, don't think it was too great and still have a stash at home. :)
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

    Not bothered to post a Feb PP list, but I will post a long overdue Perfume PP.

    Perfume PP

    I generally only wear perfume on weekends / when going out, and often forget, so finishing things is an issue, lucky I don’t have loads.

    To start with I would like to work on two mini sets. Have used each a couple of times over a year or so. Try one per week and decide to keep and plan when to use or GA.

    Lancome minis set (gift):

    w/e Feb 2nd
    O De Lancome - Don’t like, smells soapy not fresh as expected, put aside to GA
    w/e Feb 9th
    La Vie EST Belle
    w/e Feb 16th
    Miracle
    w/e Feb 23rd
    Tresor
    w/e March 1st
    Tresor Midnight Rose

    Carthusia mini set (gift I gave to my OH but we are sharing now to UU):

    w/e March 8th
    Fiori Di Capri
    w/e March 15th
    Corallium
    w/e March 22nd
    Mediterraneo

    Redken Colour Extend Shampoo. Got other brands in the stash, so need to repurchase.

    Sorting out travel sizes for our holiday, leave on Thursday for three weeks in Spain. It snowed yesterday and we need to get out of here.
