How do you purchase your beauty products?

Do you nearly run out and then go to purchase or do you like to have a few on hand. I think I have slight hoarding tendancies, I like to have backups of everything I use and sometimes can have up to 5 of the same thing just hanging around! I'm not sure why as it is easy enough to purchase things these days, I guess I just have some type of hidden fear that maybe I will die if I run out or something?? lol. I'm like this with everything too, I have like 15 boxes of washing powder, about 8 12 packs of toilet paper etc!!
We'll before BR all I had was mascara and eye liner. So all my stuff is new cause of the reviews.
Skincare I'd buy something and end up throwing out as I'd react to it. Now I've found a great range, I have ordered before running out and will keep ordering.
i had to laught at your boxes of laundry powder, that was my husband before I met him! But there was like 50 boxes (no exadriating) there were about 8 that,we're full.
we are in the country so I try and have a couple of most grocery items, 30 mins to the dairy is a bit far to go.

Thank goodness I have my own bathroom because i have a cupboard, a mirrored cupboard and a vanity all crammed with goodies. I have about 6 shampoos that I brought with sets that I have to get thru, and thanks to BR now I have starteed branching out into makeup so am trying a lot on new things based on reviews and reading the forum. So i have no room to double up. :-)
I like to have back up of everything, if its half gone I panic slightly! at least 1 back up of everything I know I will use again, certain foods (coffee) and all the household stuff, soap/toilet paper/dish liquid/washing powder etc 1-2 backups makes me comfortable.
The problem is since joining BR my habits have been changing, instead of finishing 1 product before opening the next I'm ending up with alot of half used bottles of things around the bedroom & bathroom lol..... I've never been much of a hoarder so I'm getting a little concerned I'm turning into one hehe! Surely we are all entitled to some little hoards (collections?) I've figured that if theres room to store it then its sweet as hehe. Its when the house is probably being raised up by the Hubbys useless old computer parts hes "hidden" under the house I think someone has a hoarding problem!
I really have no idea why lol, not like I don't go shopping every week, or live far from town, I just feel like at least if theres some sort of emergency where I'm stuck at home (i.e zombie apocalypse) I have a wee supply of everything I think I need to survive a few days & look good while doing it, I really dont fancy using emergency newspaper or leaves from the garden if I run out of toilet paper after all lol.

I gave a few back ups, mainly of my favourite products. At the moment: Aussie shampoo/conditioner/deep conditioner, Michael Todd honey and oat cleanser and about 5 tubes of Pearl Drop toothpaste!
I don't normally buy in advance for cosmetics as I'm always trying new things but skincare I tend to panic before it finishes, at the moment I'm on a hunt for a good eye cream (I'm using Moreish and can't see how much is in the tube! So annoying)
Cleaning products are totally different, I have a bursting cupboard!
I shouldn't admit this but am curious if anyone else does this.... I get little moods where I colour code my cleaning products (and if I'm buying skincare or haircare in the same shop) I'll unintentionally buy all orange coloured products. Or red... I dunno what determines the colour lol I realise when I get home I have orange spray and wipe, orange pledge wipes, etc etc. I find it a little concerning!

I think too many years of being a poor student (and now being a poor trainee and student again!) has meant I can never really be a beauty hoarder of double-ups. I have stuff I don't use as much, and multiple cleansers/shampoos/moisturisers as a result of not liking a product so much, or wanting to try something new. I tend to only buy a replacement when I'm almost out of something, even then someones it's when I have actually run out, squeezed the VERY last drop out and then wait til pay day anyway. The only thing I currently have a double-up of is Hiruscar, which is only as my boyfriend bought it for me on request and was lovely enough to bring over 2 packs when he was last home. I think I may need to get back-ups of my ELF concealer n primer though because I use them so much and I'd need to order them.
Bird and colleencanary Hahahaha I am so glad I am not alone in this!!! Mascara is something I am soooooo bad at hoarding hahaha.
