No Buying Toiletries in February Challenge

mcculloch29

I'm off on a little weekend break tomorrow (Glasgow and Edinburgh), been trying to work out what to take in toiletries line. The Olay samples have ensured light packing of moisturiser, but on my last break with the same company the bathrooms had soap but no shampoo, shower gel or lotion. So I've employed PRCP and are breaking into White Musk minis.

I've also packed mints, for on EVERY trip we go on my friend will, at some stage ask "Have you got any mints?"
I've also bought a magazine for the equally inevitable "Have you got something I can read?"

This month's Prima, as it happens, which has a free sample of Sanex shower gel. So that's a non-bought in.

And I know I've said it elsewhere but :bdaycake: Happy Birthday Trudij :bdaycake:

Enjoy Edinburgh, my home town

I can't go back now, I've told everyone, so I'm being inundated with advice!!! I've set myself a date (18th of August stuck in my head for some reason so I took it as a sign!) which coincidently is 6 months away this week!! Bit scary but have to get my act together and save like I've never saved before :rotfl:

NOw I heard (only today) that the number 18 is supposed to be lucky/ bless. 1 means life and 8 means infinity. Or something like that - either way it's a very good sign.

I've started to get a very good feeling each time I declutter a toiletry and write it down on my list, and the extra space makes me feel very virtuous. :A In fact, I reckon it's a better feeling than I get from buying toiletries!

Same here! I'm enjoying see stuff I don't like so much go.

What, THIS OLD BASIC ONE do you mean?!

I didn't know you could still buy the original oil of olay stuff. My nan used to have a glass bottle of it. And she'd have it for years, that and Ponds cold cream.
100ml for £5.50 odd - mmm I wonder if our/my ancestors would laugh at what I/we spend now! You know I'm tempted to buy one for old times sake!! And to think of my nan, can't remember if my mum used it.
Thanks for brining back some memories :A

Wow, wow, wow lynseydee!

Target any Liz Earle stuff first (especially if opened) as I've found their stuff can go off sharpish. Time to get pampering :A

Don't have any LE stuff opened, but do you think I should use it before anything else?
