Well, I bought some shampoo/conditioner last week because I was running out, it was only when I looked at my toiletries for something else that I realised I had one already, duh! No wonder my supplies are not going down.0

Ok confession time.....had a splurge on Liz Earle to take advantage of the free P+P now I know I can use these things with no allergic reactions to the ingredients. Other companies are getting back to me with their ingredients to see if I can use what I have so these items are on hold.
Bought 2 large C+P, pack of toner, superskin moisturiser and pack of line serum for my eyes.
Quite a splurge but needed as can't use a lot of what I have for my eczema and need a very simple routine with no aggravating ingredients.
I won't be buying anything else apart from a shampoo as I'm nearly out of this and there's only a couple I can use and I'll pick this up next week when I'm in townfinal unsecured debt to repay currently £8333Proud to be Dealing With my DebtDFW Nerd 1154 Long Haul 1550 -

How are we all then as we come to the end of March and we approach the final month of the challenge?
I used up a hydra floral moisturiser today and £1 deposited into the treats tin as a result.
Managed not to buy anything too this week - still will need some shampoo at some point but I'm using a solid bar from lush which is pretty good then I will stock up on a 1L bottle of PK conditioner which suits my hair completely when I've used up the rest of my conditioners.
