Sachet if loreal revitalift used up. Dm gave me a ton of these.

ememem84 · 22/12/2020 09:18

As above. Another sachet used.

Caggie09 · 22/12/2020 10:03

Briogeo farewell frizz spray.
Ive liked everything by this brand so far.. It does what it says on the tin. When i blowdry my hair it does tend to look frizzy unless i straighten it. Ive not needed to use the straightners on my hair after using this spray, which is good. Less heat the better. Would possibly RP, once im through the rest of hair stuffs..

Treaclemoon pomegrante bath salts. The scent was lovely, smells expensive. They made me abit itchy though!

Glad to have finished this one - a Jo Malone body cream. Bought it as a treat for myself but it wasn't great - just didn't sink in properly so I was rubbing it in for ages. Disappointing as I'd expected better!

On the plus side, I'm now officially out of body lotions that I actually paid for, so now on to using up gifts, samples and freebies - admittedly some are quite large so still good for a few months, but it's quite satisfying nonetheless!

@BookSkark love that scent, but felt the same with their body lotion. So sad! I haven’t had much luck with JM products, tbh... (love the juice, but the longevity just doesn’t come close to justifying the price)

Babysharkdoodoodood · 22/12/2020 17:31

Big free sample (15ml) Estée Lauder Day Wear done. Onto a big Caudalie sample now.

I haven't bought day moisturiser for ages now. I have so many freebies to get through.

Pomegranatespompom · 22/12/2020 20:07

Quickly popping on to say Clarins serum in the gift set is half price in John Lewis - I ordered one to try £29 including mini cleanser and lip oil

Another sachet of revitalift done and also a Mitchum Deodourant.

LivingDeadGirlUK · 22/12/2020 23:22

I've finished a Touch of Pink by Lacoste perfume, full size. Opening the Hypnotic poison I got for Christmas last year now.

justilou1 · 23/12/2020 00:42

I have not just hit pan but actually FINISHED a mini Hourglass dim light powder. Bloody perfect handbag size. No need for a big one. (I have it in the Unlocked Palette too.) I am away atm so making do with Laura Mercier mini which is much messier.

ememem84 · 23/12/2020 15:01

yet another sachet of revivalift together with a body shop winter jasmine 30ml hand cream.

i've also started on a second one. so that'll be gone in a few days.

Experiment627 · 23/12/2020 15:04

@Costacoffeeplease how did you find the Tumeric body wash? I have this in my stash from an advent.

@WellTidy I adore the Superdrug Naturally Radiant hot cloth cleanser

@Pomegranatespompom love your 2021 list!

@CherryMargo have you thought about selling some of your conditioners? If it is that good I may be interested....

@justilou1 well done on the make up empty!!!

I shopped my stash for my toiletries bag for going to my mum's for Christmas- I am really excited about trying all new things!!!!

I just have one goal for 2021 - to experience joy as much as possible!

Costacoffeeplease · 23/12/2020 15:08

@Experiment627 it was fine. No strong turmeric smell, I used it to top up my hand wash bottle so am still using it

CherryMargo · 23/12/2020 15:31

@Experiment627 All of my Prodigy conditioners expired four years ago 👀 so I wouldn’t dare to charge a penny for them. But I will be happy to send you one if you wanna test it ☺️

CherryMargo · 23/12/2020 15:34

Empty no. 68 🚮 Dermalogica Renewal Lip Complex (1 ml; feelunique’s Pick & Mix).

I really disliked how lumpy this balm was. I tried to squash the lumps with my fingers but didn’t succeed. I’m not sure whether feelunique sent me – once again 🙄 – an expired product or this was the actual texture of the balm. It did soften my lips but there are other balms on the market which work just as well and I enjoy their scent and texture much more.

A total number of products left in the lip mask / balm category: 7 samples and 2 full-size products.

An empty body lotion that I think I must have swiped from a hotel. God knows why, it's not as though I needed more! Have a few of these which are half-used, so looking forward to getting rid of them over the next few days, as none will last very long.

Used up another one of the nip and fab glycolic bubble sheet masks that I mentioned upthread. These are fantastic. Will re-buy again and again.

Caggie09 · 25/12/2020 08:41

Merry Christmas all!!

Ive had a morning pamper, so got rid of a Rose Sheet mask, which is single petals you stick anywhere on your face. Which i quite nice as your not stuck under a wet sticky sheet for 20 mins!

KS liquid exfolikate 30ml. I liked this, but felt i didnt get to use it as much as i liked. Im finding with reusable cotton pads yoy need more product on them which is making me go through product's quicker!

ememem84 · 25/12/2020 15:23

Waitrose shampoo done

Also a winter jasmine scrub.

More products in. But. Christmas.

Babysharkdoodoodood · 25/12/2020 17:01

Oh god. So much more stuff!
Nice though: Charlotte Tillbury lip pie set, Neom bath foam , £50 SpaceNK voucher (already spent) and Mitsouko from DH.

MB Juniper Jazz bubbles from SS2 and a St Eval Tabac candle from Sd2.

Youth Dew from my mother Envy(not envy). Into the regift boxGrin

Aaaand I still haven't started Selfridges advent.

BookShark · 25/12/2020 22:51

I had an Origins gift set from my parents. So between that and my advent calendar, I've very definitely going to end December net up on beauty products. But all adding to my reason not to buy more in 2021 unless I've actually run out.

Merry Christmas fellow hoarders!

Costacoffeeplease · 26/12/2020 13:52

A few empties. I’ve got another wonder balm to start. Not sure the Gatineau did much so I’m quite pleased to have finished it
