No Buying Toiletries in April Challenge!

Sophy

I finished a Maybelline eyeliner-matic this morning. I think I only bought it because Boots had a voucher for it or something, but it wasn't bad at all for a lower end of the market eyeliner. I would buy it again. And finished a Pears hand wash, which I would also buy again. I wish I could finish some larger items, it would make a bit more space!

I know exactly what you mean: it's one of the fringe benefits of this challenge!

I'll be so glad when the body shop white musk body spray is used up it smells like a cross between fly spray and nail polish:( but i have had it ages so not sure it started off smelling like that;)

:rotfl:I think you can officially deem that one 'gone off' and throw it out as a result. There's no point in using up something which has gone off properly as you never know what it will do to you. Permission to chuck it granted!

I'm pleased to report I have finished my first thing since starting the challenge a couple of days ago - a Virgin Vie Honey & Rosehip body lotion (spray). I must admit it only had a small amount left, but I stood it upside down yesterday and finished it today. :T

WIBA? yes definately, I love the fragrance, its easily absorbed into the skin and the 125ml bottle lasted a long time. But at £10 a bottle, and with loads and loads of other body lotions to use first, I will not be buying it anytime soon (note to self - avoid Virgin Vie/Vie at Home website, brochures, parties etc etc ...!).

Happy Easter everyone! Love from

Happy Easter everybody, well done on your progress everyone!
I have finished....drum roll please... an ASDA shower gel, a raspberry and berry one WIBA Yes it smelt lovely when in use but the fragrance didn't linger
Dove deo spray WIBA Yep I love the clean smell of Dove!
A pink creme bubble bath from ASDA too WIBA probably they are on offer often and do the job!
A Radox bubble bath WIBA yes but i don't think it was very stress relieving :rotfl:
A moisturiser i was sent to test WIBA i would if i knew the maker, it was lovely and light and sunk in so quickly (and has helped me to get into the moisturising routine - thanks to all of you for helping me turn girlie and start using all my things! hehe)

toodlepips for today i'm off to scoff some chocolate! xx

Well done roshydoshy finishing all those things! Did they all finish on the same day? I know what you mean about "turning girlie" lol - I have never used so many different products on myself before! (but I am enjoying it!)
Enjoy your chocolate!! xx

I have almost used up a Lush sugar scrub - WIBA - No! It's like an instrument of torture! It does work I think (only used on bum and thighs) but flipping kills! It was a present so I'm not sure I like the person that bought it anymore!

Have also found an No 7 reviving eye gel I forgot I had and am using it up this week - I actually quite like this so would recommend it. I think I bought it with one of the Boots vouchers but would pay full price for it.

I finished a No17 Charcoal black mascara this morning. I don't know if i'd buy it again as i only got one application out of it having opened it ages ago. I've only got 2 mascaras left now and one's a mini.

Todays throw outs are 1 used up hair gum (not me!), 1 mini shower gel, 1 Trevor Sorbie face wash (used as a shower gel). Still got a scary amount of stuff to use though!
