Sanctuary Mandelular Body Souffle - lovely scent but not especially moisturising.

I have been using the Stila The Natural palette this month, it has 6 small eyeshadow pans and two larger pans for the face, I have decided to remove the shadows I am using and get rid of the rest and have put the 3 shadows I am keeping into my magnetic palette.  I have hit pan on one of the shades but that is mainly because they are very soft and kick up a lot of powder plus the pans are small too.

Well done with your progress.  I hope to finish the Colourpop Moonwalk eyeshadow and hit pan on Agrabah from my MAC Princess Jasmine palette soon. 

Thanks for all the birthday wishes.

I UU a pack of cotton wool pads today so am bobbing out to Superdrug to replenish.

I hit pan this morning on a different shadow : Bourjois Ingenude single baked eyeshadow.  When I pulled it into rotation last week it had a small dip but this morning I could see waffle tile. Still loads of product left though cos its baked.

Hello all, I just found this thread. May I please join? I am trying to get motivated to use up my toiletries stash mostly unopened and some years old, and to stop buying more before I have done this! I feel I probably need to do an inventory so I can really assess just how bad it is! Will report back after I have done this! 🤭

Philosophy Living Grace Shower Gel 240ml - more of this scent in the stash.

TA

Creightons Frizz No More Curl Spray - that isn't the exact name but near enough, this sort of squirts rather than mists which is annoying, it is quite a thick milky liquid and made my hair very greasy and I have dry hair too. 

I also got rid of one of the Stila shades I removed from the palette earlier in the week,  I actually kept four originally but one was a nude colour which just didn't show up on my skin at all, I tried it as a base colour but it just did nothing.

2. Barbara Daly Trade Secrets Sheer lip melt in Adorable b/f from the last challenge

3. Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge in Powder Pink b/f from the last challenge

4. Miss Sporty Stick Concealer - b/f from the last challenge

5. Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer

6. Benefit rsvp cream shadow mini

7.  Bare Minerals Eyeliner in Plum

My updated lists.  I am just not using the foot cream but really need to crack on with that, I've been using body butter instead of the Cowshed lotion plus I really love it and am sort of rationing it out a bit, the perfume is at least half way done and I have now passed it to DD, it is 100ml and I fancied a change and she doesn't have as many perfumes as me.  Both the conditioners are in use but might be finished next month now as I have been using the little one that came with my hair colour and I only wash my hair a couple of times a week.

Of the 7 by Spring list, I am still plugging away at the Poppy King crayon and it is tiny now and should be done soon, I focus on that one so don't use the Barbara Daly one very often, I am not using the Miss Sporty concealer but am using the Collection one daily.  I am using the cream shadow almost daily but despite being a little jar it is almost the same amount of product as the full size so it is taking some using up, the eyeliner will last me forever I think despite using daily.

Hi Hi! I haven’t posted since September but felt I needed to check in. I didn’t go ahead with my annual Neal’s Yard order and cancelled my membership - that was a big deal! I’ve still maintained a low buy mindset but struggled to keep using things up at a decent pace. Today was difficult because I found a box of product I had planned to give away / sell and hadn’t, plus some of my own back up items. Most were now past the best before date. Massive feelings of guilt and annoyance at myself. I had stopped tracking my progress and this was out of sight out of mind. I’ve kept a few things and kept them visible, but sold most of it for just £10 so it was gone.
