No Buying Toiletries in October Challenge

fixx

Finally, some proper UUs for me!

Tigi Bed Head Dumb Blonde Reconstructor – 750ml bottle. WIBA? Already have, this is my HG conditioner
Pantene Intensive leave in conditioner. WIBA? No – don’t even know why I bought it in the first place! I hate leave in conditioners. This is years old, I finally got rid of it by using as a shave gel (which it was quite good as…)
Aquafresh extreme clean toothpaste. WIBA? Yes, I did like it, but I’ll generally buy whatever toothpaste is cheapest

I’ve been skipping on the body buttering front quite badly recently, and my skin is quite dry now, oops. Must do better.

UU'd here : Mitchum deodorant spray. WIBA? Yes, definitely - been really impressed with this one and will be adding some to my Boots stock-up shop for next week when the extra points are available if they are still on 2 for £3 by then.

INS for me:
Lush The Godmother soap - I need a new nice smelling thing to wash with since my Goji berry shower gel is nearly gone
Lush Sugar Scrub thing - need to exfoliate more now to help my skin, and it means I'll use my body butter up
Mouthwash - lip pierced so need an alcohol-free mouthwash and the one at home isn't
2 x ProNamel toothpaste - really do help my teeth so need to get back into using it regularly.

UU - Tester deodrant - WIBA? I can't - I was testing it
Mini deodrant - WIBA? No, the smell is too male.

Used up:

CLinique eye make up remover (eyes lips purple one) - wiba yes but only at bonus time. I am trying the Botanics one that I read some people on here use. It's much cheaper so will see if I get on ok with that.

Need to buy:
Body Shop seaweed moisturiser (oil free). I've been using other ones and my skin is breaking out. I will have to look out for an in store offer. Cannot be trusted online!

I'm going to place some items into a little basket thing to use for pampering at the weekend - so body brush. face mask, stuff like that. So even when I'm tired I can grab some bits for a quick pamper session. Must remember to put a flannel in there too - Dunelm Mill do some fab mitt style flannels (like salons often use) and they are reasonable too. Must stock up on them.

Keep pampering

A couple of ins for me - a JF full size volume shampoo and conditioner (they weere freebies from a comp;)) and I've a couple of bubble baths on their way from Boots.com as I'm all out - well I had run out until I found 2 lush bath bombs hiding at the back of a drawer whilst tidying up today - better get em used quick!!!:rotfl:

I also won the JF shampoo/conditioner this week:j none left in my stash so welcome (still have quite a few other shampoo/conditioners though). Also got a couple of the simple wipes sample packs in the post.

I tried the Botanics eye makeup remover and was quite impressed. Then I tried the L'oreal gentle one (about £2.49 in Boots!) and was even more impressed so might be worth trying that one next.

Nice idea with the basket, too!

Just when I thought I'd used up all my sachets of moisturiser, I found another one! I've used it up now though: L'Oreal Youth Code Rejuvenating Anti-Wrinkle Day Cream. I've decided to move on to Neal's Yard Remedies Nourishing Orange Flower Daily Moisture for Dry Skin.

I've also UU a Sachet duo of Garnier UltraLift Pro-X Double Action Eye Anti-Wrinkle Cream and Gel and that's the last of my eye cream sachets, but I've plenty of tubes to use up.

forgive me ladies for I have sinned:eek:( I blame MSE tho for the info on the sanctuary spa box offer at Boots)
I ended up buying 3 no 7 items to get £5 off(quidco),3 gift items(3for 2)3 shampoo/conditioners....Boots for swimming range)AND the Sanctuary box at £19 down from £40:eek::eek::eek:
funny thing is a/ I dont actually use Sanctuary and have not even looked at what is in the box:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:(am thinking pressies in baskets

it did say you get £10 extra points when you spend £50 but that did not come up at the checkout,I found the site very slow and would probably have spent more if it had been quicker!!!

OH, ROSEMARY! :eek:

I think you should say three Hail Martins and promise never to do it again (till next month).
