Beauty Hoarders anonymous - come join our toil!!!!

[Experiment627]

Continuation of previous threads - come fess up here! We love hearing about stashes but also them being used up!!!!

Finished a Superdrug Optimum Dau cream. The packaging is quite heavy (pump bottle) so I never know I've got to the end until I press and zilch happens)

Luckily its on BOGOF ( there's usually a special offer these) so I have 2 now .

I managed to use up a pears blue soap.

A couple of mini l'occitaine handcreams.

Went away for weekend (freezing) and took my mini products. Ended up with extra shower gels, shampoos,soaps as you do from the hotel but they will get used up.

Have a special place in my bathroom drawer

When i use up one things, loads of products seem to follow!

Patchology gloss to balm treatment sample - This was great! Thick, moisturing lip balm. Got loads of uses out of the sample, would purchase but ive lots of lip balms to use. If i remember it when i manage to get through all mine, i would buy this!

Loreal pure clay purity mask - Loved this, really rate the loreal mask as a cheap mask. Makeup always looks better after using this!

Jo loves 2ml perfume sample in Pomelo, think this is my 3rd one ive gone through. Liked it, i catch the scent on myself hours after putting on.

Hask Argan oil hair mask - Said wuth the last hair mask i used i wasnt keen on Argan oil products, but this mask was really good. It smelt like orange, and my hair still looks good now. Would repurchase, have loads of others to use first.

Batiste hair protect spray.

Superdrug dry skin cream tub for body. Holy grail.

So much progress ladies 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

I have some empties:

• Jo Malone tester thing of Peony and Blush Suede: not for me
• Aveeno Baby gentle wash 50ml: I used this up - too much for Kwicklet's skin. My poor baby has eczema 😭😭😭
• ESPA overnight hydration therapy 15ml: yuk! Tacky feel to this - used up on body!

Can I join you? I thought I had this sussed but a couple of Space NK GWPs, a MIL who buys bath and body gifts and an ex Avon Lady mum offloading her stock and I have a bigger problem than I thought.

Quite enjoying the using up process - haven’t been so well moisturised for a while.

Empties this week
Chantecaille mascara sample - a bit too natural looking for me.
LRP Cicaplast Hand cream. Has Holy Grail potential but lots more to use up first.

Hi all been awhile. But I do have a few empties to report!

Skin and Co Blue in Capris shower gel-was eh came in a sub box most likely would not buy
Oribe Apres Beach Wave and Shine Spray (travel size) smelled really good, felt light on hair but probably won't get in regular size
Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray (travel size) again nice smelling, not sticky but don't think will get larger size
Maybelline master Precise liquid eye liner in black. I liked it. Could get pretty precise lines, good pigmentation was trying to find something in the drugstore after using Kat Von D Tattoo Liner

Welcome @Kabloom!!!

I have some empties!!!

• Childs Farm sweet orange hair & body wash: unfortunately this is too strong for Kwicklet so I used up
• Body Shop drops of youth cream 50ml: light and fresh but I am not sure that it has an SPF
• Balanceme wonder eye cream 10ml: really not a fan of this brand but this is the best product I have used thus far

No use ups.

I have sinned. Almost. Or I am about to.

Feelunique posted about the new urban decay game of thrones pallet. I may have signed up to be on the wait list.

I’m probably going to buy it. I don’t need it. But so pretty. And so amazing. And I’m pregnant and fed up. So i deserve it?!

You do indeed @ememem84 😘😘😘😘

I have an empty:

• Jo Malone sample of wood sage and sea salt - ok but still prefer LBM

BodyShop Ginger Condtioner .

DS and DH use the shampoo for I always buy more of that . The conditioner was stnding upside down for a few days so I thought this morning "Heck, I'll use it" .

Near the end of a Pitrok Gold Roll-On , need to buy a new one , getting to the warmer weather .

The soap and glory face wash is done! Gone. No more. Wahoooooo!!!

I've used up a soap and glory face wash, 2 mini hand creams from l'occitaine which are handy for travel.

I've also done a Clarins swap with some of my make up products. I did buy a couple of new products.

I have just ordered a 1 litre bottle of Aveda Shampure (Thank You M&S with your 20% off HairCare on my Sparks card )

That will takes months to use - even taking into account my teenage DS who pilfers it .

Two empties from one shower
A Derma Exomega Shower Oil really gentle and moisturising. Would buy again
John Frieda Sheer Blonde Tone Correcting Conditioner OK but I think better ‘purple’ shampoo and conditioners.

I have lots more.

Alberto balsam stunning shine shampoo. Nothing special, standard cheapo. Have another lurking somewhere.

Sure cool blue roll on. Hated this. Using a Sanex one atm, them two nivea sprays in back up, then im back to Mitchum again.

Clarins gentle peeling cream. The first time i tried a product like this was out of the m&s advent, i thought it was amazing then. Came to realise these products are gimmicks amd dont do anything for my skin. Have 3 more similar products to use though

Bare minerals serum. Was okay, abit meh. Have another one of these.

My Burberry travel spray. Love this perfume, got a 100ml bottle. Long lasting too.

Omorovicza night cream. This was lovely. Thick and perfect for night time. My skin looked good when i woke up! Wont repurchase as out of my price range😂

Murad city skin detox night cream sample. Was really good, sample wad abit stingy though, not enough to notice a massive difference.

Miss patisserie shower steamer. Possibly the most pointless product ever, but i like the smell so i dont mind🙈

I tried some Murad exfolliator ( DD had some travel sized products after a clear out that she put in the bathroom, all were sealed)
he Murad made my skin so rough on my face , felt like sandpaper .
I might pass this onto DH .

I have some Skyn Iceland facial wash and a Superdrug B Oil Michellar so I was very restrained and resisted buying anything new .

Used up a hand cream.

Dd took a mini conditioner and shampoo. (Plus some stuff left in her room, she left home quite a while ago

Finished a small origins moisturizer that came out of an M&S beauty box ...lovely to use but not convinced enough to fork out full price for a full size.

Also finished a rituals shower foam....bit sad about this one, was a limited edition a couple of Christmases ago and I had stocked up on a couple of bottles and eeked this last one out....love it, and wish they would bring it back again...so warming and lovely.

So I am on the cusp of finishing a few things but today it was...

Vanila chai bodyshop bodyscrub - love this scent from last christmas but even if it was still available I have decided to stop buying bodyshop products due to the MLM side.

Foam call soap and glory bubble bath - was ok but not amazingly bubbly, prob wouldnt buy again.

Much progress ladies 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

I have an empty:

• Origins Maskimizer: what a complete waste of money - you cannot out under most masks as it wets the face, I ended up spraying on to a pad and wiping over face. Have absolutely no idea what it did. More fool me for buying.

This morning i finished the full size vanila chai body butter. Got 2 more body butters but going to finish a dove moisturiser first.

Finished a Rituals Sakura scrub and a LRP Lipikar Xerand hand cream -feels a bit light but think it has helped heal a patch of eczema on my thumb.

Empties:

Lush Rose jam 250 ml shower gel - I love this, but it every Christmas as a gift to myself! I have another one to replace it with. I love everything rose but this is my favourite.

Pixi Rose Tonic 100 ml - gift from DH for Christmas. I liked it, but I am not sure whether it made any difference whatsoever to my skin. Nice to use but I don't think I will replace. Hmm. Maybe I will. It was about £8 I think, so it wouldn't break the bank. I will ponder some more. I have the Pixi Glycolic to get through too.

In other news, the Aveeno Body Yoghurt moisturiser is taking an age to get through. It isn't as good as normal Aveoeno as it leaves a thin layer of powder on my skin. The pot is only 200ml, but a little goes a very very long way and I am getting super bored. I knew there was a reason why I liked miniatures!

I have an empty:

• Laura Ashley Beachcomber hand cream 30ml: meh
