And I have my 1st empty:

-75ml Sanctuary Bath Soak from a gift set yonks ago that someone gave me. We don't actually have a bath so it's been in with my foot products for whenever I soak my feet (which is nowhere near as much as I should do!)

kwick · 22/01/2018 07:51

CLArins travel size one step exfoliating gentle cleanser and a travel size multi active day cream finished. Yippee.

I definetly have more of the day cream but not sure about the cleanser. If not once I’ve finished my stash will buy this one again.

When I've got the stash reduced I meant to say

DragonNoodleCake · 22/01/2018 21:28

I have a new love of all things Rituals - thanks to my lovely advent calendar. Also my stylist recommended the strength cure mask for my hair as it takes a lot of battering. (Bleach, toners, heat styling) Its so good I've ordered pureology shampoo and conditioner litres instead of my usual Redken all soft this time!!! Shock

Mummycatface · 22/01/2018 21:59

dragon redken all soft do a shampoo?! Must resist. I use the oil - suspect you may have put me into this when my beloved frizzease ran out.

I’ve name changed btw. Have been here for yonks.

suchatiredbunny · 22/01/2018 22:30

I've used up a travel size Liz Earle shampoo which I really like, but binned the end of the matching conditioner as it's given me some horrible spots under my hairline. Also finished a LE rollerball superskin oil which I like but I'm not sure it does much.
My skin is still being temperamental but I've had flu so been poorly which doesn't help. I've literally just used the sensitive dove bar followed by lashings of Aveeno as it's been so dry.
Two in (my friend had a body shop party) which are a hemp hand cream and the white musk l'eau edt which is lovely.

DragonNoodleCake · 22/01/2018 22:51

M-catface

Oh yes!! Redken do AllSoft Shampoo and Conditioner - I use the 1000ml bottles (ordered from Terence Paul online (waaay cheaper - I get both for approx £45 usually about that each) last me about 5 months. DD1 and 2 use it now too Grin
So my stylist uses a mixture of Redken / Pureology and I fancied a change.

I can't live without allsoft oil. They've also got a 25 benefits spray too, I've order 2 bottles of that...as it feels so soft when stylists use it! I'll report back. I currently use cloud nine magic potion! Grin

DragonNoodleCake · 22/01/2018 22:55

I've been playing with leaving my hair soft and wavey rather than sleek and sharp hence the trying out new products! My friends are loving it. Hope you like!

I found them on this Dutch site kwick but they must be available from UK sellers as well

Mummycatface · 23/01/2018 17:08

dragon redken allsoft is on sale on feelunique.com.

FrustratedFrugal · 23/01/2018 19:47

Dragon you look fab!!!

AnotherPinkiePieStory · 24/01/2018 10:36

Dragon you total Fox!
I have no empties to report except candle. Replaced with Bath and body works one. Man it has some throw. Can fill a huge room in minutes. Just seen how close Valentines is. Eek best get cracking. And stop buying perfume!

CantChoose · 24/01/2018 18:50

Oh I love all soft! I've just finished tigi oatmeal and honey supersize shampoo. I fancied using allsoft next but was given herbal essences Argan oil set for Christmas so will try that first. Has anyone else used it?
I find the allsoft makes my hair feel lovely but also makes it a little fluffy.

I've finished some kind of organic Greek range face moisturiser sachet. Wouldn't repurchase.

DragonNoodleCake · 24/01/2018 22:18

Cant I've used AllSoft for so long I can't remember before it!! I know if I'm using up other shampoos I can only do it a few washes at the time as my hair never feels as good!

kwick · 25/01/2018 06:33

dragon you look so lovely with your hair like that!!! 😍😍😍
Can you do me a mahoosive favour and read the ingredients on the Redken oil you mentioned - is there anything in there that begins with cyclo?

Thanks calling & dragon - I will try to remember next time I need to get cotton buds.

I have two empties and am now half way through my Valentines list:

  • Avon lavender bubble bath: ended using up as a hand wash; did not really smell of lavender
  • This Works in transit camera close-up: do not think this worked... will be interesting to see same foundation on top of another primer (have 3 in my stash!!!!)

Dragon - your hair is gorgeous like that, it really suits you! 👍

IPokeBadgers · 25/01/2018 21:27

Have a mini empty: a Lancome bi-facil eye make up remover that came as part of a mascara gift set. Really liked this and would use it again, but am unlikely to pay full whack for it and have at least 4 eye make up removers in the stash to work through.

woodhill · 25/01/2018 22:02

I've used up 2 conditioners, a cleanser which is a pump meaning hard to get remains out and a pure shower gel. I've nearly used up my Clarins perfume so very pleased.

Strawberryfield12 · 26/01/2018 07:24

Have had three empties in the last week: The Body Shop face oil, Gatineu eye make up remover and Clinique tonic. That leaves me with three products on 14 list to use. I was thinking yesterday that since joining the thread I have managed to use a lot of products which were standing around from old times, many of them because I wasn't too impressed. Now I am left with mainly with products I like or new ones I want to try. That makes using up a work of pleasure.

Actually, I still have couple of things from years ago I haven't opened because they don't appeal too much.

Mummycatface · 26/01/2018 07:57

Finished full size clarins cleansing milk.

DragonNoodleCake · 26/01/2018 08:40

Kwick sorry Redken oil is not for you Confused
