    Above is how my PP list looks now.  I have finished:-

    ABC Skinwash.  Have more in stash.  HG.
    Kat von D Sinner perfume.  I was not a huge fan of this though it didn't smell awful.  MRM said it smelt gorgeous yesterday though.

    UU Tisserand Cucumber and Grapefruit natural deodorant
    WNBA because the smell was a bit weird, but other than that it was a great rollerball deodorant, so would consider purchasing a different scent. Got another one in my stash I have had forever to time to use that up.

    Updated PP List

    Soap & Glory Clean, Girls shower gel
    Doctors Formula overnight face mask
    Korres Mango body cream
    Lacura Glycholic pads
    Protan body lotion

    I am going to make an effort to finish that face mask by the end of the week.  The Korres body cream tube is cut open however there is still loads of product left so not sure about that one.  Everything else will probably be carried over.
    I am TA a Laura Geller eyeshadow trio today.  The colours are purple and at not very well pigmented.  It came in a Tili box so don't feel too bad about getting rid.

  • Hi, I'm new to this but have had a lot of time to go through my things whilst in lockdown. I had so many toiletries and cosmetics I needed to find out if I was alone - obviously I am not.
    I started my 'shop my stash' In January when I was taking my presents upstairs after Christmas. So many smellies and makeup bits, I love it but find I hoard and then buy more. I am also terrible for taking hotel toiletries, not so much for being a hoarder but because I hate the thought of waste. If you use it and leave it the rest goes into the bin (not good).
    Anyway, after 7 months I have realised how little I actually use, or how much I had :; I have used most of the hotel freebies for everyday use and a few soap and glory standard size products which I use on my weekly pamper night. Still got a long way to go but am enjoying recycling empties rather than filling up with more. I AM NOT BUYING ANYTHING UNTIL I NEED IT.
