Hello @bebarkered
@Experiment627 I will take a look now , sounds really interesting !
@DeciduousPerennial superdrug has a good budget range - can't remember the name but but it's the green tubes, I ran out of cleanser and was pleasantly surprised, thought was better than Liz Earle.

@Caggie09 I am just about to settle down with a coffee to have a look. John Lewis has 20% off.

Hi Pomegranatespompom x

Caggie09
You just reminded me that I have LM Ambree Vanille Body Souffle (full size) unused in one of my many beauty (clutter) drawers!

I have started a list, categorised all my toiletries and crossing off as I use them, it’s strangely soothing 😂

I’m tempted to buy some rituals products, also neom have an offer where you get a free wash & lotion if you spend £45.

Oh will look at JL. Im tempted my Neom, will see what the other free products are during the week🤞

I've done that. It was a bit scary (I listed absolutely everything - except make-up as I just don't wear that often enough), but as you say, quite satisfying. Although I decided to highlight the stuff I'd actually paid for (rather than GWPs or advent cakendars) and use that first - the downside of that is they tend to be the full-size items so I don't get to tick things off very often!

And no, no tempting me into Black Friday spending. I do NOT need any more products - my spreadsheet currently has 155 items on it! Yes, some of those are 1ml perfume samples or moisturiser sachets, but even so, I'm good for a while...

I resisted the advent calendars this year but partly because M&S weren't doing one.

I haven't bought anymore make up as I don't use it as much

@bebarkered thanks for looking for me!!! I only started this week so I do not think that is me!!!

That is the link to my first video!!!!

@TeatimeAtCloppa oh no!!! So sorry to hear about your mum! Really hope she recovers! Mahoosive hug coming your way 😘😘

Thanks @Caggie09 & @Pomegranatespompom tell me what you think!

@Experiment627 I’ll have a look at that later :-)

@Pomegranatespompom I did that about a year ago. Just a tick list on my google keep notes. Means I can look at it in shops when I get the i need a new cleanser moment. Look at list Erm no no I do not!

I wanted a beauty advent this year but resisted. I need no new products. Maybe next year.

Same with Black Friday.

Such strength @CornishTiger !! 🐯

I'm not as strong as @CornishTiger and in the middle of a John Lewis order

@Pomegranatespompom show is your basket!

@Experiment627 I’m really trying to be strong.

Clarins oil finished. Realy Suprisingly liked this. My skin feels so so soft!!!

A few empties to start the weekend!

Fresh Rose Mask - I wasn't convinced by this one (I think CherryMargo had a different fresh mask up thread and seemed ambivalent about it as well). Quite apart from the fact that the rose ingredients make it look really brown and unappealing, it didn't have any obvious benefit.

John Frieda Shine Shock - liked this one and it made my hair look lovely and shiny, although it was a balancing act between not using too much and making it look greasy!

Nuxe Body Lotion - love this and would definitely repurchase if it weren't so hard to get hold of. Which makes me wonder if it's being discontinued - would be a real shame if so, it's got both a lovely scent and texture.

@CornishTiger I dithered abs the rituals set I wanted is now sold out. Neom candies are 20% off at JL but I can’t decide whether to go for that or the offer on the Neom website.
I gave DD a Byredo hair perfume this morning and now wish I hadn’t as it smells amazing abs she sprayed her teddies !
@ememem84 which Clarins oil was it ?

pomegranates the blue orchid face treatment oil. Was nice!

@BookSkark Like the idea of your spreadsheet, I've. book I joy everything in, Christmas lists, menus etc I went a bit crazy in the paper chase sale and have another 5 books to use

@ememem84 I am keen to try that oil.

@Pomegranatespompom ooh paperchase is my nemesis. I have a shedload of cute fun notebooks to use.

I do love a bit of nice stationery. But then I hate messing it up, which is why I prefer a spreadsheet - you can add and delete rows/tabs and you don't have to see the crossing out! I may be a bit too anal about this sort of thing...

But, at the risk of enabling more than just beauty products, if you do like a nice planner, I can highly recommend this website. www.personalplanner.com/EN/

bookshark waaaaa!!!

I’ve started using my multitude of notebooks for work. Much better than the big standard office issue ones. Currently using a booby one as my “to do” book.

Giant mound of empties!

So many posts! Will read them later.

Just the one empty but one which I would 100% recommend Nip and Fab glycolic bubble sheet mask. Bought on offer in Waitrose a couple of months ago for £3ish but I would pay full price. It felt like it was doing something when it was on my face, but my skin is really bright today.

I think I may have that mask in my stash @WellTidy from a beauty box or gwp, I’ll give it a go
