My pseudo-spa night last night made me realize that I have seventy bazillion different beauty products/samples in my cupboard. It also made me decide that I am no longer purchasing any beauty products until I use every last old product and sample that I own. Beside the fact that B and I are hoping to be homeowners within the next couple of months (which I don't think I told you guys), and every spare penny we have needs to be devoted to that cause, it's also ridiculous that I'm not using all this stuff that's at my disposal.
As an example of my beauty product excess, let me describe my area in the shower. It contains two shampoos, one conditioner, three different shaving products, a face soap, two pseudo-dermabrasion scrubs, a body wash, and two body scrubs. Compare that to B's area, which only contains a bar of Irish Spring.
I need to simplify my life, and my bathroom cupboard is as good a place as any to start, right? I invite my readers (all three of you) to join me in Project Beauty Product Reduction (ok, it's not all that catchy...if you have a better name for it, let me know). I'll let you know how it's going in a month or so.

I've been working on this since the move, and unpacked SIX boxes of bathroom products. I have a problem.
Currently in our shower there are two real shampoos, two "shampoo/body wash/bubble bath"s, two conditioners, a shower gel, two different scrubs, a bubble bath, three face washes, an aromatherapy soak, some scented thing I'm supposed to spray on myself after a shower, two sample packets of body scrub, one hotel shampoo, and a bar of soap.
This is only the loot IN the shower.
