No Buying Toiletries in December Challenge

roshydoshy

I've packed my washbag for NY with mainly sachets face wash and moisturiser, mini shampoo, conditioner, mouthwash and toothpaste so hopefully will come back with an empty (restocked) washbag :rotfl:
I might also bring some make up i'm not too fond of out there, but bits that are on their way out and leave them behind too - perhaps the hotel staff will get use of them!
Hopefully I'll have some UU on my return - I'm bring one of my body shop butters/moisturisers out with me just to encourage me to use them as I'm seriously out of the habit at the moment.
I've been petering on with my wearing my eyeshadows every day but the pallete lid has broken off them - and wearing them every day must be working, as I was seriously considering how to package the pallette up to bring away with me!! I think I will have to look in the stash and bring some single eyeshadows away with me - it will be like new make up
They pallettes are never ending though! I've taken to using the black and dark shades as an eyeliner beneath and above my lashes, obviously not on my eye lid where an eyeliner pencil is used.
I think I'll still be using these palletes in 10 years time!!!

I have my graduation tomorrow so might spend some time tonight trying some make up looks for it, but don't want to go OTT as I want the photos to look timeless rather than dated IYSWIM soooo a pamper night is in store tonight, hair dye, fake tan and a good moisturise!!

Have a good day ladies, i'm in holiday mood so will be perusing these threads a bit more often today :rotfl: I wonder if theres an American version of Grabbit....

What's a spackle??

I think Laura Geller Spackle is a foundation primer - correct me if I'm wrong girls! Its supposed to be really good from write ups I've read but I'm interested to know what others make of it - interesting that prudence kitten isn't raving about it, I would like to try them but I have never found a primer that is really any good!!x

Thanks - you learn something new every day

I've never found a good primer either, they all seem to make my foundation slide off!!!

I had never even heard of foundation primer! Surely the foundation itself is supposed to do that job?

Congratulations, Noynoy, that's wonderful news!

One UU for me: Palmolive shower gel (green and white, think it's an olive version?). WIBA? Yep, cheap, moisturising and lasted ages.

In: lovely Body Shop goodies from work secret santa. Yay! I'll be keeping them for holidays.

One UU- Dove Grapefruit Handwash pump. I do like this but have now put out a BS Pink Grapefruit soap. I'm not sure what made me buy it as I don't use soap usually but it'll be fine by the bathroom basin.

A couple of INs too- Herbal Essences conditioner, Hello Hydration. I bought this as I did the hair test and apparently I need moisture so I've slathered it on and left it for about 20 mins under a towel. Hopefully it will do my poor hair some good
Dove Invisible Deodorant stick as my roll-on is on its last legs and I can't possibly run out :eek:
Also some new razors, Venus Oceana. I usually have Bic Soleil but nowhere in town has any atm so I'm taking my chances with these. Did my legs earlier and so far so good. I do struggle with leg shaving, I'm very sensitive to razors with "stuff" on, but can't do cheapy disposable ones
