I used up boscia makeup melter. it was effective but at the end there were small blobs that did not melt at all. I am not sure I would buy it again even heavily discounted.
I finished surprisingly finished an ogx shampoo. It was nice and would get it again.6 -
Will have to post and run. Will try and catch up later but have UU another eyeshadow from the MAC Princess Jasmine pallette called Rags to Riches - a lovely shimmery champagne that I finished this morning as highlight also.
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!

One UU from last night:
Oral B Satin Tape 25m - WDBA and have done. Cheap and effective
And one UU from this morning:
Omorovicza Daily Vitamin C 5ml sample - WDNB as a full size. This was nice and light but my skin doesn't seem to like Vitamin C serums. Used up on my arms.

UU Elemis Balancing Lime Blossom Cleanser. As always with this the pump stopped working with about a week's worth of product left. I usually cut the bottle open but this one is from the batch that I bought and have always suspected of being old. I have a new one which is a considerably more green colour than this to open so it's going out now.I also depotted the last of my NARS Gilda blush into a pot to use loosely and hope this will be finished soon.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

UUs:
Body shop Dreams Unlimited EDP - WNBA, nothing special ok to put in your handbag for work or gym. Got a few on special offer years ago so not sure if it's still sold.
Superdrug superplus tampons - WNBA, absolutely awful grip and applicator. Avoid.
Mitchum shower fresh deodorant spray - Another 2 in stash
Rosewater/Glycerine homemade mix
Did an inventory of my stash and I have c.200 beauty related items. Really want to get this down as I plan to move next year (hopefully) so my new buy rule outside of essentials is 10 items out for 1 new in, and only if I have only one left of that item.7 -

Tips about moving a beauty stash--- don't!
why you ask. Well, something expensive and unused gets smashed and takes ages to clean up. They are wicked heavy and are bulky to carry down flights of stairs. open containers leak a lot in transit and it is really difficult finding storage in a new home.
When you move you will need cash for pretty accessories and boring things like locks, smoke alarms, and bills. It is easier to use things up and save. I have moved stashes a few times and it is a pain in the neck (literally). If you do have open stuff sellotape lids shut- pro tip!
Best of luck with the house hunting!5 -
uuKorres Mango Shower Gel 250ml - lovely scent. More Korres in the stash but no more Mango ones.Lee Stafford Growth Treatment 200ml - WNBA although I do have another pot in the stash, I am always a bit underwhelmed by Lee Stafford products apart from the scent.TAThe last sliver of Lush Sleepy Face, I've tried this about 4 times now for a few days each time and after about 3 days it breaks me out.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler
