Just when I think I've finally gotten past the worst of it, I take a moment to peek under my bathroom sink to discover---dun dun dun!---enough personal hygiene products to cleanse, deodorize, supplement, wax and make up a small nation.
Shit! How am I supposed to get rid of this stuff?
I start sorting and I quickly realize that I have a lot of 1/2 used bottles of basically the same thing. Sunscreen, deodorant, lotion, face powder, shampoo etc. I sort these by category and start to look at what I can safely consolidate and realize that 1/2 of these products are expired and need to be tossed.
Ok. Not so bad considering that I have been buying only organic and natural ingredient products for quite some time. I take a chance and dump the expired herbal supplements into the compost, a bit of expired lotion in the trash and the containers in the recycle bin.
The rest of the stuff I am putting in a box that will be my personal, in house drugstore until it's all gone. I don't know what else to do.
One cool thing did come out of this! Upcycle project #3. Check it out.

Still rocking this container in spring 2012. It has turned out to be the best makeup organizer ever. Make up goes inside, brushes in the top. Easy.
