No Buying Toiletries in Jan 2011 !!!!
Comments

A UU for me today: travel size of L'occitane Verbena shampoo. WIBA? Didn't buy this as such - it was part of a free gift I got form the outlet store at Cheshire Oaks. Thought I might repurchase but since have bought loads of Ojon. I think I have another travel size in my stash which I'll save for my holidays.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

Wow, ma-ri-ella, that is a lotta lippie! I'm very jealous!
I was interested in the posts about No7 eye make up remover. I opened mine a week ago and already have used up about 10% of the bottle. I suppose that's not too bad, as it should then last 10 weeks, but usually my make up removers last forever! It seems an ok product, I guess I just use more of it to remove everything. Ho hum.
I have a small dilemma: after raving over the Chanel foundation sample yesterday, I spontaneously decided to apply my No7 tinted moisturiser using a proper brush, rather than my fingers. It improved it so much there was hardly any difference between that and the Chanel. Which is good, because technically it will save me £20, but I really wanted that Chanel bottle for my dressing table!
I also tried using hair mousse for the first time this morning, and it looks nice, so maybe I should try different things more often! An excuse for shopping, methinks...0 -
A near UU.
It's spluttered all week but I reckon when I enxt do my hair it'll be au revoir, BS nettle conditioner.
Fingers crossed cos I've got 4 more (it's the best and I stocked up when they said it was discontinued but it reappeared in the recent sale...??), plus a bottle of L'Occitane to use up!!!!0 -

I've got another UU to report - Gorgeous by Gok Body Butter (50ml) WIBA? probably not - I'm not all that keen on body butters, this one had been in my stash for about a year!
I also went to the Boots sale - but resisted the toiletries, to be fair my local Boots only had some of the Fearne Hat boxes left, which I didn't want - now question I had a £5 voucher for No.7 which I put towards a brush for my foundation (I've been after one for ages). Can you hear me trying to wiggle out of going on the naughty step? Technically I didn't buy toiletries... :whistle:Always be yourself, unless you can be a Unicorn - then always be a Unicorn !

Lol
I think I will go tomorrow and use the voucher to buy also something like that (brushes, sponges, cloths...). I do have loads of make up and I do not need more. Specially because I have items that are 15 years old!!! OMG! I never wear much make up on, only eyeliner and occassional lipstick. I still don't know why I have so many eyeshadows. I probably use them like twice a week the most, always the same ones! LolQuit smoking *1st January 2010*

As I posted a while ago, my Mum had a lipstick when she died that was probably bought c. 1947, which made it 44 years old. She was definitely using it in the mid Seventies (but not very often...)Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0
