    Ooh! I can’t wait to go over to your place and paw through your stash again πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€ πŸ˜€

      Jenn: Scary, right? When I was photographing for areas for the post, even I scared myself!

      Xin: If I wasn’t a blogger, I would have a quarter of the stash, I’m sure of it. Oh well, job requirements πŸ˜‰

  4. Paris B

    Because we can! πŸ˜‰ Thanks for sharing Tine, mine will never see the light of day anywhere πŸ˜›

      Heartofpearl: Me too! I’m such a voyeur πŸ˜›

  7. Celina

    Makeup collection next please!! Wow *_* I love looking at other people’s stash, yours is amazing πŸ˜€

    1. Tine

      Celina: Yep, that’s coming up soon πŸ˜› Oh I can’t wait to see yours! I bet your beauty cupboard and makeup collection would put mine to shame πŸ˜›

  8. beetrice

    shucks, now I’m thinking I didn’t do enough pawing through your stash when I was there! :p but that’s a very well-organised stash hey! mine is just higgledy piggledy all over the place..eeps!

    PS: I think I can actually see your shelves in the last pic actually sagging slightly from the weight! πŸ˜€ (or is it just my eyes gone whacky?)
    beetrice recently posted..Revlon Colorburst Lipgloss…My Profile

    1. Tine

      Beetrice: Oooh I remembered yours in KL. Back in the day when I didn’t have that much crap, I saw yours and went “woaaaaahhh how are you going to use all that up?” And now I look at mine and say the same πŸ˜›

      Nope your eyes are working fine. I have that much stuff that my shelves are sagging from the weight. Tsk tsk πŸ˜›

  9. Jade

    Good god 0_o haha it’s a compulsion isn’t it? πŸ˜‰

    1. Tine

      Jade: It is! It never stops, I tell ya. Less than half of the items in there are sent for review, which means that most of the stuff I have are purchased. Even though I probably already have similar items in there somewhere. I’m a girl obsessed! πŸ˜›

  10. Nikki

    LOL! Because we easily get swayed on what’s new out there! That’s being a woman!!!! :)) I love how you store you stuff, I had mine in 2 huge drawers, and another drawer under my bed! I am crazy too! πŸ™ but its not as nicely stored like yours.

    1. Tine

      Nikki: Oh I bet your stash is epic. I know your makeup collection is πŸ˜› πŸ˜›

  11. GlossQueen

    Awesome photo’s! My collection looks very similar to yours. My theory is that we keep on buying because of the hunter/gatherer instinct, we just can’t help it πŸ™‚
    GlossQueen recently posted..Time saving products for busy Mums: CleansersMy Profile

    1. Tine

      GlossQueen: That’s a good way to put it, hunter/gatherer instinct. I wonder if that’s a good enough excuse to keep hoarding? πŸ˜› The husband ain’t too pleased that he only gets so little space for his crap. The last picture is the big mirror-cabinet in the bathroom. The bottom shelf was supposed to be his, but I ended up putting my stuff there as well, reducing his space to a tiny corner, 1/3 of the space πŸ˜› πŸ˜›

  12. Amanda

    Just can’t believe you’ve stashed as much stuff! You certainly have a great collection of beauty items. For me, I’m trying NOT to buy as much as I used to, because I find out I will forget their existence over time and they just sit there in my drawers collecting dust…
    Amanda recently posted..How Much Do You Know About β€œCertified Organic”?My Profile

    1. Tine

      Amanda: I know, right? See, the thing is, I’m not in the habit of “I don’t like it, so into the bin it goes”. I can’t seem to throw them out, so I either give them away or just continue keeping it till a layer of dust gathers. Then I wipe the dust off and put the same items BACK into the drawer/cupboard. I’m hopeless like that πŸ˜›

  13. Stephanie/Yukaeshi

    I have the same problem as you- I have a lot of stuff… though admittedly not as much as you do! XD But then again, we can and it’s our little “luxuries” πŸ˜› And like Miss Xin said we’d probably buy “slightly” less if we weren’t bloggers- I don’t write reviews on makeup/skincare/bodycare any more but I still always think “I wonder how would this work on me?” like a one haha!

    My beauty cupboard(s) and drawers will never be photographed because it’s just too messy with all my stuff (And empty boxes), except one which is organised, but still not as organised as I’d like it to be πŸ˜›

    One of my shelves is sagging too, though. Eeep >_<
    Stephanie/Yukaeshi recently posted..What’s In My Bag Part DeuxMy Profile

    1. Tine

      Stephanie/Yukaeshi: Oh go on, snap a few pictures and post it up. You might be so inclined to not buy so much. Then again, I tried and obviously failed πŸ˜› Too bad my bed doesn’t have any space below to store things (it’s one of those beds that have a base that goes all the way to the floor). If not, I’m a goner. Under the bed would mean “out of sight, out of mind” !!

  14. headsolight

    Omg, I love, love, love it! I suddenly felt better about myself, lol :)) Whish I had that many treasures!

    1. Tine

      Headsolight: Hehehe glad you liked it. Your turn to do a similar post! πŸ˜›

      1. headsolight

        Meeh, won’t they call me a copy-cat?)) Oh well, give me another year and I will !!

    You have an awesome stash and it’s fantastically organized! Look forward to see your makeup collection! I’m suck a kaypo! πŸ˜›

    1. Tine

      Nadia: Makeup collection (an updated one) coming up soon! Your turn to show yours! Come come I’m a huge kaypo too πŸ˜€

  16. Tina

    Thank you for making me feel so much better about my beauty stash. I am showing this to my hubby so he can stop complaining about my “habit” πŸ˜€

    1. Tine

      Tina: Err, I don’t think mine has seen this post (I’ve hidden the pictures on the computer). Yet. If he did, I’m a goner.

  17. gio

    Wow! I love seeing people’s stashes and you have such an amazing collection!

      Idaira: OMG Idaira you blog too! Previously you haven’t been putting in your blog link, so I had no idea. I’m going to need Google to translate your blog for me, but still! πŸ™‚

  19. Shen

    I can definitely relate. Even now I’m thinking what to get at the mall tomorrow! Lol!!

    btw, i hate baked beans too! πŸ™‚
    Shen recently posted..Come Be a Part of Shen’s Addiction Clinique Party!My Profile

    1. Tine

      Shen: You hate baked beans too? Oh Imma hug you now! I thought I was the only one. Husband thinks I’m a freak for detesting baked beans. Tsk tsk πŸ˜›

  20. Bee Chin

    I wonder, how do you remember where is anything? πŸ™‚

    1. Tine

      Bee Chin: I don’t. Which is why it’s scary looking at duplicates of stuff I completely forgot I bought. Some are sent to me for review, but still there are a lot of things that I purchased on my own. I wonder what Michelle would say if she saw this, eh? πŸ˜‰

  21. Bee Chin

    Michele might say: this can throw, that can throw, this can donate, and help you clear up πŸ™‚ then again, nowadays she is into skin care as well, but nothing like yours. I already feel guilty that I have 3 moisturizer. Sometimes I stare at my 5 bottles of body lotions/cream and wonder why do I need so many when I hate using them (some are hand me down) U are amazing! Btw, this has just motivated me to go and gather them together (I leave them in various places so that I will remember to use, although it doesn’t really help) Vitamins as well. I have to move again (to another continent) in less than 3 months time. Is time to reorganize.

    1. Tine

      Bee Chin: Or she will say “eh come I help you clear up. Give them to me” πŸ˜› Body moisturisers can be decanted into small bottles, tubes or jars and used as hand creams, which you can pop into your bag πŸ˜‰
      You’re moving again? Where to this time? You are a world class traveler!

      1. BC

        To US this time. A very very ulu place call Malta in New York state. The only thing i am looking forward is: The famous Woodbury outlet is 3 hours drive away πŸ™‚ and a bit further more will be NYC, other than that it will be BOoooRiiiinG

  22. Issa

    oh wow! why you still buy stuff? because you’re a beauty addict πŸ™‚ Seriously, that is a LOT! i wanna see you makeup collection too! πŸ™‚

    1. Tine

      Issa: I am! Not ashamed to say it, haha. Makeup collection coming up this Friday. Err don’t have high expectations though, it’s not as big as those makeup blogger gurus πŸ˜‰

  23. Marlene

    Damn look at that poor shelf ! Do you really use all that stuff ?
    Marlene recently posted..How to get an online degreeMy Profile

    1. Tine

      Marlene: I do, actually. Scary, right? Poor shelf indeed! I don’t use all of them at once, or daily. I like switching in between, especially the body lotions and oil cleansers πŸ™‚
