New thread. Welcome back everyone. It's taken a while to get through the last due to how busy the advent threads have been.

All the holiday releases are coming out now and Black Friday is looming. So take a seat and buckle up. 😊

Morning all, long time lurker here and rare poster across the beauty use up, advent calendar and liberty threads for the last year or two. I stopped reading as much from the start of the year as i found out i was pregnant so thought it was better for my bank balance! But I looped myself back in again a few months ago for advent calendar season and have been enjoying all of the chat ever since.

It has been a great distraction in the last 48 hours aswell, as my baby boy was born sleeping 2 days ago, 10 days before his due date. The next few months will be the hardest ever and I know I will enjoy the distraction of all of these beauty related threads (and the Christmas bargain ones) as a relief from crying.

So I just wanted to say thanks all for your contributions and please let me know any depuffng or cooling eye mask recommendation to help with my new hobby of crying!

I’m so sorry for your loss @LondonToSurrey2024 ♥️

Thanks all for your thoughts, I'm hoping over the next few months I can also do some self care which will help to bring down my stash!

I keep buying more boxes to keep my stash tidy, @LondonToSurrey2024 , which I convince myself is almost the same as using it 🙂🙂
