I dont know about you ladies but I have for lack of a better word, hoarded a boat load of skin care products, this includes shampoos and conditioners as well as body washes.  So today was the day, everything came out of cupboards and drawers onto the bed and away I went.  It took about 3 hours [I knew it would be a big job] so now I have a beautifully organised bathroom cupboard and drawer.  Everything is in date order so I use the oldest first and will finish that one before I start another one.  I also managed to do the same with my lipsticks.  So now my girls have 2 shopping bags and 30 lippies to share.

Such a great feeling. Do you all feel good when you do this?

    I feel good when I use up things that I know are close to expiry date before they expire or if they did already but I'm not fussy about it (bodywashes, body lotions and stuff like that I'm not a stickler for expiry dates), then use them up and I can go on to stuff that hasn't expired and gradually I have room for more stuff and stuff that I know I love.

     I've been panning through skincare and bodycare this year. I haven't hit pan on any makeup yet though besides tossing a mascara that was too old and an eyeliner that needed to go.

Well done Kim - that's awesome! I'd like to do the same, but I keep pulling out the BBBEs from my wardrbe and thinking, oh they really just look fine in the box. So I leave them there :)

Nice work!
I've currently got 3 shampoo & conditioner sets open and on the go. Trying now to work through one at a time.
When it comes to my makeup & nail polish, every now and then I will pick up an item, declare it to be the weakest link and bin it. Or gift it to my daughter, depending on the product.

Well done Kim. I'm concentrating on panning. Hopefully I will have a bag full of empties to post soon.

Good work Kim! I adore clearing things out. It feels so good to only have what you will use. I do this quite regularly with my beauty products now and my bathroom cupboards look great now. However my kitchen is what really needs this treatment next!

Woohooo great job Kim! Yes it definitely feels good - I feel like a huge weight is lifted once things are in order and I can see the stuff I have. Your girls must be loving it :-)

That is fantastic Kim, such a great feeling. I'm a terrible hoarder too and very rarely finish a product unless it is a product I love so much or a regular line that I use.  I have way too much stuff and have gifted so much away already and it didn't seem to make a dent lol.  Well done hun, such an accomplishment xx

Well done Kim! Especially with the date order thing, that is simple yet genious.  I've recently been feeling a bit down about not knowing exactly what I have to use, so a clear out and organise is probably a really good idea.

Cleaning everything out is such a satisyfing feeling! I went through my bathroom last night and threw out a heap of stuff in drawers that I never use. But I also found stuff I didn't know I had and am excited to use! As much as cleaning and tidying sucks, you always feel so good afterwards!

Fantastic Kim, if you like me you will find you have heaps of something you don't need to buy or chuck in box for give away at xmas as a gift box. It was how I got rid of some items to thin out the heard and I will do it further once I replace my wardrobe.
