Long time lurker here. Just had to say what a beautiful cat you have ememem84 😻

She's beautiful ememem.

I do have a rather lovely pussy don’t I...?!

Haha. 😻

Love your cat!!! And... now i miss my cats!

@ememem84 so exciting!!! I definitely am with @PurpleNailVarnish on outsourcing the packing!

@Inthetropics depends on size of bottle... I generally have a few on rotation too so maybe a couple of months?

@twoblackdogs was said pallet terribly expensive? 😬

@PurpleNailVarnish yep 33+1!!!
I have added name to notification for Look Fantastic one, will probs go for M&S one again, maybe ASOS (it was very good last year) and also maybe a Lush one? I hope Fleur de Force does her usual review.

You do indeed have a lovely pussy @ememem84 😂😂😂😂

Oopsie! Not sure what happened with bold there!

I went to Superdrug today and bought 4 products:

• Loreal unlimited mascara
• Aussie 3 minute miracle conditioner
• a toothbrush
• Rennies antacid

Felt I was very restrained 😇

Spent £225 today. On removals. They moved all my packed boxes and furniture and took them to our storage locker. And stacked them up. Yay.

Have used up - two travel sizes from joules a shampoo and conditioner and am working on a night cream. Trying to use some stuff up while we’re here at dparents.

Have just helped Dm put all of her cleaning products back in the utility room. I think I know where I get my hoarding tendencies from.... 10 washing powders, 12 bleaches and numerous floor cleaners.

(I’ll be helping myself to one or two for the new house!)

Exciting @Experiment627, how are you feeling? Are you sleeping?
Thank you for the info on the advent calendars. I've never had one before, I like the look of the M&S one, I'm also intrigued by the SpaceNK and L'Oréal luxury calendar. I'll see what I can find out about the Asos calendar too.

I'm glad you got the removers to shift the boxes @ememem84.
We've done it ourselves enough times, I know it's a 'needs must' thing but if/when you can get help it makes moving so much less stressful.
It sounds like you're settling in at DP's, how's catface? you've started a thing now, I'm going to be enquiring after catface all the time.

Her royal highness catface is once again queen of our bed. She’s had a pounce on dparents bed. And has settled on our bed now. She’s curled up pon my feet. Last night she had an explore at 4am and did some hefty meowing.

But she’s doing ok. Ds is loving it too. He loves being at grandma and grandads. Thought it hilarious that they were here when he woke up. And again here when he came home from Nursery.

@Inthetropics depends on bottle or tube size. A 400ml will last me 3-4 months.

@PurpleNailVarnish Loreal Luxury calendar???? Tell me more!!!!!
Sleep = intermittent

So I have two "I am chucking out cos they are shite" products:

• Elf eye enhancing mascara
• Rimmel scandaleyes wow wing mascara

Have replaced with the new Loreal Unlimited mascara - it is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!

MajestyRoyal .. Paul Mitchell don't test on animals and their hair stuff is great x

Ooooh.. this is a great thread .. I need to get onboard !! Every time I open my bathroom cupboard stuff spills out .. I feel better now knowing it's not only me

The only thing I really struggle using is body butters. I have a few Soap and Glory and a Body Shop. I find them god in winter but a bit too sticky... might shove them on my feet ... when I've used up all the foot creams and heel creams !

Intermittent sleep is quite good for 33 weeks, even though it won't feel that way and plenty of people will tell you they slept soundly all the way through their pregnancy(ies) @Experiment627.
The L'Oréal calendar is mentioned here beauty advent calendars I can't find more information about it yet.

Welcome @Alicatz66, the crashing cupboard thing is a side effect of product appreciation. You just need more cupboards

@experiment627
No, the palette was not expensive, rather the other way round. That's why I probably decided it sort of didn't count.
@ememem
What a beautiful catface with that typical "I am the queen of this household" expression.
I have an empty (finally!) Lavera hand cream. Was really very nice. Now for the six hand creams patiently waiting their turn... Full size, btw. When, oh when...

PurpleNailVarnish.. I've just sent DP a link to the Look Fantastic advent calendar .. better get a new cupboard !

Welcome @Alicatz66 !!!!!
Ikea sell cheap cupboards?

Body lotion lasts me around 4 montha if it's a 400ml bottle, pretty much like @RoseMartha. I was just wondering if that was fast or slow as i have a lot.

Last years Lookfantastic calendar came in a chest of drawers didn't it @Alicatz66? There you go! Storage problems solved.

@Alicatz66 I still have the Look Fantastic chest if you want it? 🧐

@Inthetropics i think fairly slow. I don't use it everyday probably 4 times a week.

Empty. Boots “white” range bergamot body lotion. Nice. Probably won’t replace as was a gift.

Moved on to a jo Malone lime basil and mandarin hand and body lotion that was in our “old“ bathroom.

Needs using up. There’s about half left in the bottle.

Offloading most of the contents of this months Glossybox to my 12 year old niece .. I won't use any of it !! Then cancelling my subscription.. feeling old !!
