Mystery of missing moisturiser please help!!

I always love a thread where the OP loses something or something disappears in the house. This happened today in my house and my head is wrecked. I cannot figure it out and would appreciate if someone else can help solving really weird mystery or at the very least make me laugh.

About two weeks ago, I splurged on the Charlotte Tilbury magic cream moisturiser which I’ve never used before. This morning when I went to use it and took it down the jar was completely empty. The jar was also clean like it was washed. No one else in my house has a clue and denies doing anything to it

Can anyone shed some light or am I doomed to have my head wrecked forever

Do you have a teenage daughter. Nothing is safe or off-limits...

YouJustDoYou · 21/01/2023 18:00

Do you have males in the house? They do like to sneak it as wank lubricant sometimes 🤮

You did say it was magic cream.
It's obviously turned invisible.

Interested in this thread?

Same thing happened to me when I bought this -

I never did get to the bottom of it. 😬

ha ha @Shoogly Yeah I do but she swears blind she didn’t touch it and there is no way she could have used that much. And she’s not someone who would even think of cleaning the jar

Obviously someone in your house is lying!

Prinnny · 21/01/2023 18:03

Did you check it once it came? You can buy refill pots so wonder if you got sent an empty one by mistake!

Ew yes but really really don’t think so

They come with refills now. Was there definitely something in it when you bought it or is that the first time you opened it?

Ihatepcos · 21/01/2023 18:03

That hasn't been washed out, there's an inner plastic part which holds the actual moisturizer because you can buy refills for the jar. Either someone has taken your moisturizer and left you the jar, or it has fallen out somewhere.

Not with CT magic cream surely? It's quite smelly and very expensive

MollyVolley · 21/01/2023 18:04

Ooh wow that could be it daughter is in having a shower so will go look

This being Mumsnet, surely it must have been nicked by the cleaner.

Ihatepcos · 21/01/2023 18:05

On a side note your window ledge is covered in black mould. You need to clean that because it's hazardous to your health.

You've been burgled by a very particular wanker.

WilburTheIron · 21/01/2023 18:11

Teenage daughter wanted to nick a bit and dropped whole thing on floor and went for crazy teenage option of just hiding whole insert?

Its Charlotte Tilbury so it’s a particular wanker, darrrlings….

Actually this is the most likely scenario

MollyVolley · 21/01/2023 18:15

Well some really good suggestions but teen read thread and said no way! I definitely didn’t realise it was an insert so had a good look around the floor (black matt tiles) and found my missing lisa eldridge lipstick but no bloody moisturiser. Thanks for the poster we do have mould in the house

So we are back to a wanking scenario then 😁

OnMyWayToSenility · 21/01/2023 18:18

Probably the kids... they dropped it and cleaned and then gaslight you to the ends of the earth.

They all do it! Mine included!
