No Buying Toiletries in July Challenge!!!

Just a quickie - has anyone used the Jergens body lotions?
They're on offer in Boots and I had a sneaky try of two and they seemed quite nice.
I'm not a body butter fan - too sticky and thick for me - they actually make me feel hot (and not in a good way;))!

Holiday packing done, I have god knows how many small bottles of assorted lotions and potions to use up over the next 10 days - if I use up all of them I might treat myself to something shiney to fill the space in my bag on the return....

They are utterly scrumptious, but you wouldn't like them at all. So you shouldn't buy them :A







[STRIKE]but really they're lovely[/STRIKE] :whistle:

Another UU for me body shop cherry lip butter WIBIA? yes but i dont have to have lots in my stash. I tried out my cowshed lippy cow today and i really dont like it it was so runny and i did not like the feel or taste so i had to open a body shop papaye lip butter but i will try and use up the cowshed one.

Hi Rachel, here is a post that I made a little while back after trying a sachet of Jergens:

Used up a sachet of Jergens Ultra Hydrating body moisturiser with jojoba oil. The oil in it seems to have formed a barrier on my skin - my skin feels really nice. I have thought about buying from this range before as it contains no parabans but the lack of fragrance has always put me off. WIBA? Yes, for times when you want to wear a body lotion which doesn't compete with your perfume.

Hope this helps!

Isn't it a great feeling when the packing is done. If you are not yet on your way, "happy holidays" and enjoy using up your assortment of goodies!!

morning all, another 2 UUs today think I'm on a roll at the minute

UU: Clairns Quench moisturiser - WIBA? No, its nice and everything but I have found others that I get on with better.
UU: Treseme 24hr volume finishing spray - WIBA? YES!!! I have stupidly fine hair and this is great for me - also tends to be on offer quiet a lot:)

I think for Aug challange I might even do a stock take of the stash....scary!!

Just a quickie - there's a post on the Freebies (no spend) board for a free Clinique 3 step programme.
Just need to fill in a quick questionnaire after registering and its yours!
There are limited supplies though so be quick!
May be good sizes for travelling etc??

hiya girls, used up the dregs of a maybelline dream matte mouse foundation this morning, hoping to get back on the UU bandwagon with some more soon. WIBA yes i liked this more after i went back to it and it has a good coverage

Also used up an Alberto Balsam Manderin conditioner WIBA yes they are ok for everyday use but nothing special - cheap and cheerful!

I think at the moment my issue is on make up but I'm doing well and trying to use up everything, toiletries perfumes and make up!
I'm actively using up a fair bit of eyeshadow each day for work (don't worry it's not some nightmare 80s mega eyeshadow painted on!) but puting on a couple of layers of the more neutral colours, and also using u psome of the shades i might not have worn before. I'm putting these ones on lightly just to brighten up my outfits etc seeing as it is summer time (and no better time to try and get away with it!). I'm hoping that this eyeshadow pallette (about 16 colours, 1 face powder, 1 bluser and 4 lip balm/gloss - its from either a Boots 17 or No7 vanity case!) should be used up by end of september/october time? leaving me one more (larger, and eyeshadow only) pallette of brighter colours left - not sure of the make of this one?

(Just signed up for the clinique 3 step - fingers crossed and thanks for the heads-up!)

Hopefully will be dipping in soon to let you know of more UU, be good girls!! x
