Two empties. Quicker than I imagined.

Clarins pure melt cleansing gel. Travel size. Nice but an absolute pita. I use my cleanser in the shower in the mornings. And this didn’t foam. And sort of got washed away by the moisture in the shower. Won’t repurchase. Stick to the flaming cleanser of the normal cleansing gel in future.

And...a dry shampoo. I found a full size one which had a few uses left. Tresseme. NIce. Have repurchased but will try the Lee Stafford one I bought next.

No empties in sight, working on huge full size products. Have managed to break three lipsticks that I love - creamy longlasting textures that I love just won’t travel.

Here’s a lipstick selfie with my broken Chanel La Malicieuse

YEP I might have a rep cant!
Here’s my latest package. Best candles ever from Bath and Body works. I have to order on eBay as only in USA but worth it! Finished 2 candles this week too! Love the snow and hunkering inside.

Great to see you frugal. Missed your selfies. Looking good! Hate broken lipsticks. Are DC to blame?!?

Fingers crossed em.

Happy birthday, CantChoose!

*foaming cleanser. Not flaming as in my post above. Ha ha!

Finished a dove shampoo. ..liked it, would purchase again but am working very hard not to stockpile excessive amounts of toiletry basics like shampoo so might be a while before repurchase. Slightly nervous about the poundland argan oil shampoo and conditioner I have put in the shower....especially as have just paid to get my highlights redone.

Decided to have a look at my Easter 15 list to see how I am doing and if there is any product I have forgotten to use just to realise I have managed to finish off eight items and are doing fairly well with the rest of them. Quite pleased with myself, even more because I haven't bought anything new over last few weeks.

Empty. Clarins gentle eye make up remover travel size.

I think I’m donefor travel sizes now. Waaaaaa!! But I’ve used up so much in the last couple of weeks so am happy with that.

Have popped a full size soap and glory face wash in the shower. I’ve never used this before but will give it a whirl. It came in a gift set I had for Christmas.

Full size empties - clarins body scrub and a boots lemon shower gel.

The soap and glory face wash feels nice smells good but I think may contain micro beads. Sigh.

Finally something used up:

1. A My Beauty Diary Platinum Mandelic Acid sheet mask. This stuff is magical, the mask erased a decade or so from my face. Still a few left in a pack of eight, will repurchase.

1. A Korean makeup cushion compact, Missha Signature #21, a perfect shade for my pale winter skin. So good that I reordered a refill. Unfortunately they have stopped making these 😭

Another empty! Full size Caudalie Thé des Vignes shower gel. Definitely will repurchase as smells divine, but must clear some others out first. Also chucked a Kneipp body lotion which had been in the cupboard so long it had lost its fragrance completely. Feeling guilty about that!

Apologies I am well behind - need to catch up!

I do have two empties:

• Nivea in shower body moisturiser- dark blue version: LOVE this stuff
• Roge Cavailles intime: fanjo wash - ok, not a staple for me

Do not fear I will start a new thread asap!

Sorry I missed wishing you a Happy Birthday @CantChoose 🎂

Moving is so fraught with peril @ememem84 God knows how anyone ever does it! 🤞🏼

@FrustratedFrugal you look gorgeous as usual 😘

Great progress ladies!!!!

I am still on my Valentines list 😬

And guess what? A Superdrug is opening about 2 minutes from my house.... do not know whether to laugh or cry....

experiment tell me about it!! We’re stuck in limbo still. Half packed. Half not. Not knowing whether we are moving...it’s next Friday now at the earliest. Waiting to hear from lawyers.....we’ve done all we can. So fingers crossed.

Since jan 1 I’ve used up a lot of products. Either because of the impending move or because I’ve started actually taking care of myself. So that’s a plus.

I’ve finished a travel sized beauty flash balm today. I do not like the smell of this. But no waste...

I want to be able to get my stash down to the basics. I spend far far too much money on things I don’t need.
