Try again, after lost a big post......
Well, I bought quite a few shampoo and conditioners which were either half price or BOGOF. Pleased with this and now have plenty to last a long time. Also pleased because I while ago I would spend an awful lot of money on these high priced and salon brands. Now I use high street brands and I can't tell the difference. In fact a lot of them are better. So now I used high street shampoo and conditioners and styling products and I am super pleased with how they work and the days of the high high priced ones are long gone!
The only things left to buy are a new face mask as nearly out of these and I am almost at the end of these stocks.Boy I've had these for a long time and they're taken some working through. However, they will not be replaced with the same high priced salon brands. I will be trying one from my current skincare brand that suits my skin perfectly and also a low priced one to try out.
Also will be buying a new concealer as I used mine up today (first time in a long time I've done this too!). Also used up a neck serum which was quite expensive but I can't justify the effect for the price so its back to the moisturiser for this now
Getting there and maintaining the progress I think! Feels like it to me, hope it does to youfinal unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550 -

Well done gothrockchic!
I'm waging my own war against cleansers and mineral make up and foundations. I've had yet another reality check and decided to get real. I ran out of a concealer this week, have another one on the go and thought, I'll buy another one and completely ignore the mineral ones I have in the cupboard.
Get real time - USE THEM UP, DON'T BUY ANY MORE UNTIL YOU HAVE RUN OUT

After sorting out the laundry, I've decided to add clothes to my 100 day challenge. (Will I manage this given the sales are around the corner....?).
I also think I shall try to curb my spending on craft things.
So my 100 days challenge is for clothes, craft and toiletries.
If I can manage these, I should manage to save quite a bit of money over the next 3 months!0 -
You can add whatever you like cats. I'm concentrating on make up at the moment and telling myself not to buy any more at all. No matter what I think I need I know I don't need anything at all
I have used up a sachet of hair mask, face mask and hand cream. Cut open a redness primer to use every last drop and also cut open a tube of cocoa butter foot cream to do the same.
Will try my mineral foundations again I think and see how these look and I've moved onto a nice duo of eyeshadow which has been lingering in my make up bag for a while. Nice shade of cream and brown to use up which isn't too dark or shimmery when I apply it. I will use up what I have rather leave it in the cupboard unused.
So its time to move onto a little more winter make up. Mineral foundation at the weekend, continue with sheerer liquid on for work and maybe at some point go back to the eye liner too. Have a daytime brown pencil I might start using again
Will cancel my clothes show live order for make up as have way too much now and need to remember what I told myself - USE IT UP. DON'T REPLACE IT UNLESS I HAVE RUN OUT AND REALLY WANT TO REPLACE ITfinal unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550
