I had a clean up yesterday of all of my accumulated Clinique makeup and I didn't realise just how much I have! I have been using Clinique products for over 30 years and even when I can't afford it - when I run out, somehow, I manage to obtain it! LOL....that makes it sound like I 'pilfer' it...but I can assure you....that's not my style. It's a permanent gift idea for my family to buy me - either for my birthday or Christmas - I manage to have enough - usually.
I can go into one of the local stores and ask the girls on the Clinique counter for a sample of something I have run out of until the next Bonus Time comes around and they usually oblige. However, I was given some for Christmas last year and I have enough to tide me over until the next promotion.
I LOVE my Clinique range and now I have taken photos of all the boxes I have collected, I can now recycle them to make more space for other things.
This is probably only 2/3 of my makeup and makeup bags but all of the boxes.
Here are some close up pics. I love the pink makeup bag. *Ü* There are more!
The box with the purple bow is my latest Bonus from last Christmas.
I LOVE my '3-step' range - Cleansing bar, Clarifying Lotion and Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion.
These are most of my lipsticks. I have given the unused ones to my girls.
Thanks for stopping by. I'm off to the Cadbury Cocoa House in Bluewater tomorrow (the only one in the country) for hot chocolate and treats, if anyone wants to check what colour lipstick I will be wearing! LOL. ( With a visit to Ikea too).

Wow! I thought I was bad with cosmetics and skin care. I feel much better now that you have shared your guilty pleasure!

I love Clinique too and have been using it even longer than you. I must admit I am just the same and usually wait until they have a promotion on to buy what I need. well we all like a freebie don't we?
LOL I admit I thought you were going to talk about food - another fab recipe or something but no...it was worse **heehee** I love Clinique too. It was the only range that I found a good foundation in that looks the right colour for me and doesn't look like I've had a plasterer apply it. I did cry though when they stopped my fav lipstick.
Toni :o)
I have to say I thought it would be cake LOL, you could set up your own Clinique shop there, somehow I always used to accquire it too, the bonuses seem to get you through. DD recently destroyed my fave lipstick - Clinique Heather Moonshine, i was not remotely happy :(

Thanks Glen for the comment on my blog. To be honest, I can't remember the name of the lippy as it was quite some time ago. If I remember correctly a friend recommended the colour just as they were about to discontinue it - it was a heather shade.
