Ashamed of my beauty product hoard - part 5

[kwick]

Continuing the amazeballs work from the previous threads - come and join us and rejoice in the joy of using (up) beauty products

Old thread: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/style_and_beauty/2801640-Ashamed-of-my-beauty-product-hoard-part-4

My name is kwick and it has been 3 days 8 hours and 20 minutes since I last bought a beauty product...

Third empty of the week!! Clarins gentle everyday energising cleansing gel. Have another in the stash to replace. I love this stuff.

You are on a roll Em! Well done!

I purchased two angled eyeliner brushes yesterday - a small one and an even smaller one. I don't have a proper feel for them yet (still pretty cack-handed) but the bigger one might be good for the upper lash line and the smaller one for the lower lashline. I tried the golden eye shadow shade from Nars Narsissist on my lower lashline today and quite liked it - some definition but not super harsh.

Ladies some advice please:
Amazeballs eye creams for fine lines and occasional puffiness?

Just found this thread again, but I have 2 empties to report.

1x Mini size Champneys 'a well earned treat' shower gel. Had an ok scent but probably wouldn't re-purchase as it wasn't amazing.
1x Sure anti-perspirant (the anti-bac one) - lovely but already have 5 replacements to go!

I'm nearly at the stage of finishing an entire eyeshadow from my Urban Decay Naked 2 pallet but will need to look through my makeup later on today.

A couple of empties to report - Clinique Almost Make-up tinted moisturiser which I've had for years and a tube of superdrug dry skin cream.

Couple of empties to report too.

S&G The Scrub of your Life, full size. Love this, but need to use up other scrubs before I repurchase.
Nuxe small 'anti aging' day moisturiser, their anti-aging stuff isn't great really.

This has some great dupes on it!!!

Sleek Rose Gold dupe for Nars orgasm - have the Nars as a sample - rarely wear blush though.

To ask your "same but cheaper" hacks?

Here to report 2 empties, neither of which I would buy again:

• Garnier moisture bomb day cream - such a let down after loveliness of sheet mask - awful if you get on your lips. Looking forward to starting on Korres watercress cream at home and Yves Rocher in travel bag.
• Body Shop nutriganics smoothing serum - was tacky after application, did no feel particularly smoothing or hydrating, hope my Dr Organics snail one will work better!

The link was broken, here is a new link.

I am a walking advertisement for that thread. I have a major Lidl fetish. I am currently wearing velour track pants from Lidl, purple Missha Serum (Estee Lauder Adv Night Repair dupe), Bourjois Healthy Mix and Kiko lipstick Plus I might have washed my hair with Lidl Cien Repair shampoo

My nearby Lidl is crap 😭 small and none of these amazeballs products I see listed...

Thanks frugal

2 more for me

Organix conditioner

Crabtree and Evelyn handcream

Well done using up the Channel quad Kwik

Sorry I meant Frugal

Annoyed! I forgot to replace my cleanser this morning. So ended up using dhs. Clarins for men. My face feels quite nice now!

Thanks Woodhill

I'm joining PinkiePie (hope I remember this correctly...) in using up a lipstick - Max Factor Raisin. It's a slightly shimmery fairly natural pink. I've been meaning to get started with it for months but looked really blah in deep mid-winter. When the sun is out, it looks completely different, so this will be my project for March.

Thanks wood but I am nowhere near finishing pallette - should be done by 2020!!!! Takes so fricking long!!!

2 empties to report- a small l'occitane almond hand cream from my advent calendar - I like their hand creams but have a billion more to go so won't repurchase now. Also a Moroccan rose hand wash from heath cote and ivory that I got as part of a gift set. I didn't like the smell so kept using a different hand wash bur forced myself to use it up. Definitely won't be repurchased. I'm hoping I will finish my ogx shampoo and conditioner this week and can then get to work on another open bottle of shampoo and conditioner!

Hi Ladies, finally finished a Liz Earle blusher, not fab as it wore off within a few hours. Now using my new hourglass palette along with my Bourgois blusher. Working hard to see off a few more products this month...

Well done. I've never finished a blusher. They seem to last me for decades.

I'm a year-round daily blusher user and have finished a couple in the past few years. Still, they are super hard work. Currently, I am working on a meta-blusher that combines pigment from three different blushers. Hope to be done with that by this summer.

I'm working on the second share of my urban decay pallet. The first one is pretty much gone. It only took a year.

Mine was a cream blusher. I was trying to remember the word 'cream' for my post but just couldn't!! Baby brain. My usual Bourjois powder blushers do last for about 6 years. I love them!!

I have so many blushers it is not funny and I rarely use as I generally have pink cheeks.

I don't wear eye shadow every day and I reckon I have enough to last me for at least ten years. Yet I'm always attracted to pretty pallets. Why?

apples I am the same... but in the end what is the harm if it brings you joy?

Alfamummy that explains why I have never finished A Bourjois or Chanel blusher although I have had them for years.

I have an empty: a 5 ml mini of Avène Antirougeurs Soin Concentré Fort, passed on by my mother who likes some Antirougeurs products. It is a standard moisturizer with that strong dirty hair smell that probably comes from lanolin. I don't use stuff like this on my face because moisturizers almost invariably break me out. Instead, I spread this on my neck, experiencing strong wafts of barnyard aroma throughout the day. Never again
