And a full size Elemis apricot toner

justilou1 · 16/06/2020 14:42

Wow, @Costacoffeeplease! Good work!!!

Costacoffeeplease · 16/06/2020 14:58

😄 thank you

Costacoffeeplease · 16/06/2020 15:12

I still have 12 mascaras in the stash Blush

WellTidy · 16/06/2020 17:26

An empty - 70ml Occitane verveine shower gel. I use shower gels as bath foam (as I use bar soap in the shower or rituals shower gel/foam) so i get through it really quickly. This was from the m and s summer beauty box. Used it loads in the past but it’s quite expensive for a bath foam so I won’t replace. I really rate the Champneys bath foams in boots which are 400ml and usually on 3 for 2.

WellTidy · 16/06/2020 17:27

12 mascaras Costa! That truly is a stash. Sounds like me and soaps.

lockdownalli · 16/06/2020 18:24

Finished a Neals Yard hand cream in Rose. It has a very strong rose fragrance so don't buy it unless you are a rose fan Smile I bought it on impulse when I couldn't get the Bee Lovely version which I absolutely love love love.

I can't buy any though as I have about another 7 or 8 hand creams to get through before I can justify a new purchase Sad

Costacoffeeplease · 16/06/2020 18:25

It was 17, so I am making progress. Slowly

LivingDeadGirlUK · 16/06/2020 19:00

I've chucked the remains of a Simple protecting BB cream. Its too greasy and has sparkly bits in it, making me look like a shit vampire :(

Also managed to melt a chapstick in the sun.

Aldi LBM hand & body wash. This was a product i seen on this thread and made me buy! This smells exactly the same as JM LBM. The eau de toilette doesnt though, which is disappointing. The only thing is i find shower gels in a pump so restricting and i spend ages pumping the product out. My cost per wash will be expensiveHmm

Costacoffeeplease · 17/06/2020 11:07

My space nk delivery has just arrived. V excited to explore the gwp

I've had a little superdrug spurge. Trying some of the vitamin c skincare range and also got some hair treatments.

lockdownalli · 17/06/2020 14:38

I use the Superdrug Vitamin E Hot Cloth Face cleanser in the shower and love it. Then I use a more expensive cleanser in the evenings (Tropic Face Smooth)

Finished up an eyeko Mascara sample. It was alright, made my eyelashes a bit spidery. I have loads of mini mascaras, one in every handbag but obviously as I don't go anywhere much any more, they need using up before they dry up.

WellTidy · 17/06/2020 19:49

I am so excited for you with that space nk haul! What a treat.

A Superdrug splurge is always lovely. Plenty of bang for your buck. Hope you enjoy it! When I get through my haul of cleansers (not that far away now as the four or so Elemis that I have left are about 30ml or 20g each) I am going to try the Superdrug vitamin e hot cloth cleanser. I’d love to find a cheapie that works for me. I’ve used top end cleansers for ages, usually Elemis or Estée Lauder. It is the Superdrug one or the body shop camomile cleansing balm.

Experiment627 · 18/06/2020 13:08

@LivingDeadGirlUK shit 🧛🏻‍♀️??? LOL

@Costacoffeeplease SO jealous!

@WellTidy I prefer the Superdrug Naturally Radiant hot cloth cleanser - still cheap as chips.

I have one empty:

  • Loreal Age Perfect cleansing milk: this is Holy Grail for me and have already started the one I had in my stash

@Experiment627 the vampires in the twilight series that go sparkly in the sun :p

LivingDeadGirlUK · 18/06/2020 13:21

I've actually got the naturally radient hot cloth clenser to try too but I'm still slogging away at the soap and glory vit c facewash which is going on forever.

Experiment627 · 18/06/2020 13:21

Ooooooo @LivingDeadGirlUK I ADORE Twilight!!! I should have got the reference.

Costacoffeeplease · 18/06/2020 13:22

I have to say I am pleased with it, I hope I don’t like some of the products too much though, the eye cream is about £200 full size Shock

LivingDeadGirlUK · 18/06/2020 13:25

I did really enjoy twilight, but vampires aren't supposed to sparkle, its not very dark and demonic!

justilou1 · 19/06/2020 01:22

I thought the werewolf was hotter. The vampire was kinda soggy.

Caggie09 · 19/06/2020 20:51

Sunday Riley C.E.O Glow oil. I used to really love an oil in my routine, Clarins was my HG. I dont think it done much tbh, i could go without adding it in. I have one more oil in stash, and i dont even really pick it up to use anymore. Ill try and fit it in to get rid!

LivingDeadGirlUK · 20/06/2020 22:23

Finished an impulse 'sweet smile' body spray. Was ok but I tend to use perfume these days. Have a couple more in the stash of different scents but working my way through some Lacoste touch of pink first.

lockdownalli · 20/06/2020 22:51

I finished up a few products last couple of days, mostly travel sizes (because I am not going anywhere any time soon, sob!)

So finished a Nivea Soft body cream and shower gel both travel size. I like Nivea. It does what it says on the tin but nothing more, but it's comfortingly reliable.

Also finished a Ragdale Hall Express Hand Balm. This is more of an oil really and I use it last thing at night as you couldn't touch a thing after applying it. I really liked it - smells like heaven (almond, argan and shea) and did a sterling job on my dry hands overnight.

I will probably repurchase at some point when I have used up my stash of hand creams, and I will cut the tube open to get out any remaining product now before bed.

justilou1 · 21/06/2020 03:02

Hyal Collab (white bottle) thin and watery Korean toner cooling for summer, but not especially efficacious. Won’t repurchase. Rafra cleansing balm (orange pot) - was a gift. Over-priced, warming balm. Smells amazing, but I don’t enjoy the exfoliating grit, as you can’t use it around your eyes and it makes it messy and difficult to remove. Not repurchasing. Laneige water cream. Lovely. Will keep the pots and refill with the Hada Labo Premium Hyaluronic which is (the yellow bottle at the back) so much better and cheaper. The Ordinary L-Ascorbic Vitamin C Powder. I never want to be without this. It has lasted well over a year. Doesn’t irritate, is much more stable than other vitamin c products and dissolves in serums perfectly. Has made a huge difference to my skin tone. Love. Hand cream sachet. Love. Will purchase this some day!
