    welcome moneyonmymindsam.  You could use some products in gift baskets for Christmas gifts.  Put some cellophane and a big bow around them- it will save you loads of time and money this Christmas. 
    I thought that but I think I wouldn't get away with as I would be giving it back to the same people (all related) lol but actually a good idea - I could make a hamper for ebay sales - thank you x

    Just be mindful of postage costs on Ebay when putting hampers together. 
    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!

    I TA the small tube of Decleor BB cream this morning.  Awful colour (reminded me of American Tan tights - probably showing my age) and was strongly fragranced.  Excited today as my Zoya polishes that I pre-ordered are released today.  Hopefully will arrive soon.

    One out Espa body oil 15ml. I’m not a fan of Espa products and this smelt of Citronella but I’ve used it up

    DH had an auntie that wore very, very short skirts with those tights, she looked a complete sight.

    Soap & Glory Thick and Fast Mascara - I've had a couple of these but have always given them to DD (I may still have some in my stash though), I really didn't like it, the brush is way too big and all the product collects at the tip and base of the brush so it is messy but nothing really gets applied to the lashes so it didn't really have any impact. It didn't flake or smudge though which is good.  I have a mini Clinique mascara on the go so I will carry on with that and then replace from the stash.

    I've finished the Benefit Goofproof pencil.  Love this product.  Have realised that it has lasted just under a year with daily use.  I bought it in Prague las September.  I have replaced it with a Benefit 24hour brow setter which came in a kit I received at Christmas.  Do not like this.  My eyebrows feel very crispy.  Maybe go to Superdrug at lunch and buy an Elf pencil.  I'm gettng low on concealer so may as well take advantage of 3for2.

    The cleansing balm has gone.  I have actually given it away to the same workmate.
