No Buying Toiletries in June Challenge!

fixx

A small use up from last week that i'd forgotten about - a pack of Boots cotton wool pads. WIBA? Yes - love them, but have some more already in stash, so I've already opened a new pack :rotfl:

As for the tanning - I decided last night to slather myself in Johnsons tanning body lotion (this has been open for ages, I'm desperate to finish it!), followed a few minutes later by lots of Almond body butter, to hide the smell, and beacuse I don't think the Johnson's lotion mositurises as much as I need... Still no streaks today, but quite a nice golden colour.

I normally have loads of streaks, so I'm now cinvinced they are hiding, and will suddenly develop on Saturday morning, just when I really want to look good for the weekend

One UU for me NYC black nail polish WIBA i think i would. only problem is you need to put on three coats as its very thin but does dry quickly. my favorite one is made or sold by superdrug but last time i went to buy it there was no black.

Tut tut!

I'm feeling SO proud of myself with the toiletry spends. I'm also feeling that when I get something I'm appreciating it more. Using up stuff is almost as addictive as buying it.

:T:TMe too. I can't believe how little I've bought this year (so far) compared to last year. I've deliberately chosen stuff I'm less keen on to use up first, but now I'm starting to filter in favourite products, and am really enjoying just using them. It is better to use something when you really like it, than to hold on to it till you're sick of the sight of it! And I've learned that there will always be new things out there to appreciate, so I needn't buy stockpiles of anything (unless it is an insane bargain) :rotfl:

Wow couple of naughty peeps on here! And a couple of die hard determined types. All i bought today was a Dermologica face scrub - had none in use or stash! Amazing!

ON the down side I found a couple more moisturisers. So will use those on my neck at night. Am finding my face/skin is preferring nothing on it at night except a bit of liz earle serum around my eyes. Using only SPF moisturisers during the day now (Body Shop seaweed, its lovely).

Just need to get the shampoo/conditioner and liquid foundation stash thing under control and I will be even happier. :A
