My 7 by Autumn list

3. Stila Eyeshadow in a dark matt pink/brown (this is a tiny pan taken from a palette)

4. L'oreal Lipstick in Sweet Berry

My updated lists.  The body lotion may end up carrying over to next month.  For the '7' list, the foundation isn't going to be finished and neither is the matt eyeshadow, and I don't think I will ever hit pan on that blusher.

7 by Autumn update

MAC Live the genie life DONE

Too Faced Silk Teddy - i've decided to get tid of this.  In the pan it was workable but now that I have depotted it I'm finding it too shimmery.  Have swapped in Too Faced Push up from the same palette.  To finish.

Benefit Hoola DONE

Colourpop Champagne Miami DONE

Hourglass Edit 4 collectively to hit pan

Rituals handcream 

Essie cuticle scrub

Another eyeshadow done.  It’s a silver shade. Very 70’s. Very ABBA Revival. Another one gone from my MAC Princess Jasmine palette. Also, I am now at product 20 in my Finish 21 in 2021 challenge. I think the contenders for no 21 are another eyeshadow from the above mentioned palette called No Ordinary Lamp and the Too Faced one in this Project.

I think I will hit pan on the highlighter in the Hourglass palette soon as I can see the waffle base.

I have neglected use of the other two items..

UU - AHAVA Mineral Body Lotion 40 ml.

This was from LF beauty box I think. Nice enough but don't need to buy any body lotions.

Avon Advanced Techniques Anti Dandruff Shampoo 400ml - I bought this a long time ago for DD and just hung onto this last bottle in case the shampoo bars we now use didn't work out, they did so this has now been finished up.  We found this to be very effective and smells great.

This was our last liquid shampoo but I have held onto a couple of empty bottles to refill with the Faith in Nature shampoo at the health food shop.

2 x Eve of St Agnes Hydrating Face Silk - looking forward to trying this out soon.

Rose & Frankincense Cream 60g - this is handmade by our local health food shop, I was in there buying tea and they just had one jar left of this, it will be stashed for a couple of months as I now have quite a few facial moisturisers but both myself and DD use them so they do go down quite quickly.

Savon de Marseille soaps in Lait de Annesse (? I think) x 2, Marine, Rosemary and Basil.  I am obsessed with these soaps.

This is the most I have bought in a long time.

7. Smiths Rosebud Salve

Finished this product without much success.  I am calling the champagne pink eyeshadow done for this challenge as it just has a tiny ring left, I will continue to use it though, I have a lot of pan on the other one but it will take ages to finish.  The foundation will be another couple of weeks or so, the mascara is still going strong as are the blush and salve.

I miscounted, I have actually now finished 21 items as I did not include the Ted Baker body spray in my list.  I count items that are not every day staples, those items that I have multiples of and those items that take a reasonable amount of time to finish. 

UU:  John Frida red shampoo.  Emma bought this and I helped her finish it.  Another one ready to be opened.

I would like to say I have much less to use/dispose of but that probably only means I'm unaware about how much is lurking.  I shall have to have  good look.  

The one place I know that needs to be decluttered is the top of the medicine cabinet in the downstairs loo.  This is the one that we all use (as opposed to the tiddly one upstairs which is just me and the OH).  I spotted that there's a row of bottles with something in them - all with a thick layer of dust.  That means that they have been sitting there since we moved in nearly 4 years back.  And, what's worse, I suspect they are my FiL's leftovers that moved with us a year after he had died.  I suspect they may not be worth using at all so fully intend to simply bin them.  I shall however retain the 2 packs of purple hair colouring that are up there for some weekend when I can be bothered.

DISPOSAL OF THOSE LITTLE HOTEL TOILETRIES

ok - we all do it.  gather up all the tiddly bottles of shampoo and mini bars of soap etc whenever we stay in a reasonably nice hotel.  I've even been known to pocket a few when going by the cleaners' carts (in my defense it was L'Occitaine). 

Anyhoo....did you know that many hospitals welcome these?  Unopened and unused of course.  Our local place has facilities for parents whose children have been hospitalised so that they can stay on site during a worrying time.  Obviously if it's an emergency they will have arrived without a wash bag so those little sample size items are great to help them tidy up and revive after what might have been a sleepless night.  Obviously in the current climate extra people in a hospital might not be encouraged so best to check with them first rather than dropping off a bag of goodies.  

So I will report back when I see just how big a mess I've got.  I do know without even thinking that I really dislike the Originals Mint and Tea Tree shower gel I have.  It used to be absolutely marvelous and refreshing but now it's a WNBA.  I have already bought a replacement  - a goat's milk soap scented with cedar and rosemary.  I haven't opened it yet but have it on my WFH desk deeply inhaling from time to time - most excellent!!!

1 UU:

Superdrug pre-shampoo elasticising hair shampoo - WBA, HG, and have 3/4 in stock. This has made wash hair days less daunting as it just melts away the tangles. Really hope that it's not withdrawn in the future.

3 ins:
3 x 3ml Arabian perfume oil dupes of Baccarat Rouge 540, Armani Si, and Dior Poison. So far, quite impresssed. These have great lasting power can still smell scent one day after, even after showering.
