  • Month tallies

    INS: 13 (£117.58)
    OUT: 47 (6 gave away, 23 throw away, 18 UUs)
    TOTAL:  34 items gone from my stash!

    The move spurred me on to get rid of some stuff I should have long ago.  I still moved A LOT of skincare and makeup, BUT it's more items that I use, and will use now.  I got rid of the duds!

    Morning all.  Hope the move went well @Clutterbug07

    Few more last UU's for July:

    LRP Serozinc: staple in the routine, replaced with a new one

    Lush Powerblock Ballistic: bought this when I was in Liverpool, huge and could have been used over more than 1 bath but I felt like being decadent.  It also had a soap in the middle of it so will use that when my latest one is done.

    Garnier Oil Infused Micellar Water: love this for removing makeup.  Have replaced with another one I bought this month.

    Holler and Glow Running on Rainbows Foot Mask: this is one of those foot peeling masks.  Had good reviews so we'll see how it goes.  Must admit feet do feel a bit softer.

    I've been a lot better this month at just buying replacements very close to when products are running out, but then I have just ordered something from Charlotte Tilbury that I probably didn't need 🤣  There are lots more things almost finished so August should be fairly productive too.


    So the PP list looks like this:

    Bobbi Brown Java eyeshadow
    S&G Foot Cream
    Nars Rikugien Lip Pencil 
    Mac Utterly Posh Dazzleglass
    UD Last Call eyeshadow
    TBS Coconut Hand Cream
    It Cosmetics CC Cream
    1 Body Lotion
    21 Foot Masks
    S&G Body Scrub

    And the totals for the month:

    INS: 16 @ £125.76
    OUTS: 24 @ £237.12
