Not sure what thread number we are up to here but ALL ABOARD if you get JOY from buying and trying beauty products!!!

We sometimes enable but we also share out thoughts, support one another and generally share our love of beauty consumerism!

I was using it as a body cream but yes, it would work well on your face too.

I've just started to use up the Elemis Superfood Primer, looks so lovely on the skin but I'm afraid it's breaking me out! I've not had this many spots for decades

Hi there. Long term lurker. You are my people and I need to admit I have a problem 😂

I have no idea how many products I have. I have cut the amount by weight by about half this last month, mostly by getting rid of stuff I didn't like or won't ever use.

Sadly I also had to get tid of some that had gone off. Especially when they were the luxury items I was saving for a special occasion. Stupid me.

I have treated myself to a new advent calendar already, and I might be getting at least one more. So I am going to try to use up or bin all the old stuff by the new year.

Welcome to the tribe @Zeeza !!

Thank you!

I can’t believe I’ve never joined these threads. You are my people.

today I finished my hourglass mascara and i could easily reach for another random mascara from my drawer but nothing else compares so will go investigate the best price online shortly.

I’ve also tried a new product for the first time this week. I got it as part of a super bargain beauty box this week - a full size Gatineau Hydra Aura Eclat De Soie Water Cream. I’m very fussy about products and typically quite loyal but I tried this on a whim and I am really liking it actually.

Not bad because it was practically free in a box, which I only got as there was an Elemis cleaning balm for less money than it would have taken to buy the balm separately- win win!

Welcome @AlabamaWorley22 !!!

On holiday so need to catch up on the thread.
thanks for the new thread @Experiment627

I’m trying to use up sone minis.

Frank body hair mask. Was ok.

Clinique moisture surge - not at all effective.

nuxe spf 50. Left a weird tinge so used on my arms.

None a repurchase but glad you have used ‘
102/120
11 samples

You are welcome @PomRuns 😍

I did The Ordinary red peel thing this morning but skin still felt rough so slapped on some Anjou pore strips... amazing what came out! Definitely think No7 contributing to congestion so am switching, with relief, to Lacura!

Welcome all fellow exfoliated, polished and moisturised people 😊

I recently purchased the super facialist vit c cleanser too - really like so far. Was on offer in Boots £6

Used up a Jasön rose mini shower gel this morning. Smelled a bit funky. Not for me.

Also a sisley body cream sample which was delightful, but not worth the price for a rebuy.

Thanks for the new thread, @Experiment627!

I have a couple of empties and an abadonment to report.

Revolution vitamin c serum have given up on this, which is frustrating because it was 8 quid in Boots and I was hoping it would wean me off my love of the Dermalogica and Sunday Riley Vit Cs! Sadly it stings like hell and also leaks all over the place, which made it oxidise.

Diptyque Do Son perfume love love love. Might put it on a Christmas wish list! It's not too soon, right?

Aesop geranium leaf body balm used this all up but it was also annoying: gorgeous scent but so difficult to rub in and left a white cast. Was a GWP but I'd have been cross if I'd splashed out for it. I don't want to work that hard for body lotion

Can I join please? I'd love to share some pics of my shelfies if that's okay?

Pleeeeease come and join us with your shelfies @Preemptedyou

Thank you so much!! So I've been doing a lot of sorting and rearranging lately and here's a few of my products

Wowsers @Preemptedyou that’s very impressive

Thank you. I have A LOT more but it's mostly in drawers etc. I do have this beauty cart too though

I've truly found my people!!!

How long will it take you to work through that lot?

You definitely belong on this thread.

Hello, so pleased I found you! Think I may have a little problem with my skincare addiction. Love the stuff I use but tend to order when there’s a gift with purchase and am a teeny bit addicted to advent calendars.
I was planning on having the Liberty, Space NK, and M & S calendars this year…

but I’ve just gone through the drawers of all the bits I’ve not yet used and oh my goodness!

I recognise a lot of those products @MyCatsSlave
maybe bet two rather than three ?!!

Superfacialist Vitamin C Serum is down to £4.50 on Amazon at the moment - is it any good?

I like a glowy, oily serum - not sure if this fits the bill but I’ll give it a whirl anyway I guess.

You are welcome @Maranello and defo not too soon for a Christmas wish list

Welcome @Preemptedyou and may I saw WOW 😮 👀 what a collection!!! It looks like your stash has its own building! Amazing!!

Welcome @Zeeza !!!

Welcome @MyCatsSlave - great name BTW! Just think of the joy as you use up your stash.

Thank you. I am. I am using all the things I was stupidly saving as a treat. This week is pretty much all sisley! My legs and bust have their own special sisley creams. So stupid. But fun.

Old low concentration retinol I am using on my chicken skin arms.

I am wearing perfume samples to bed as a treat.

Its lovely.

Oh no. Just discovered Vinted and ended up getting some more miniatures, mostly the ones I liked from liberty beauty drop like the hair oil an lá bruket body wash. But that is because I've used them up, so that's ok? Right?
