No Buying Toiletries in February Challenge

trudij

Sawan - I think you should be allowed no naughty step til the end of the month - and good for you for replying how you have,he cant just be let to think that its all ok when it blatantly isnt.
Hopefully will have a UU later - its a client evening tonight,so Ive got a bath planned before I go and will attempt to use up some of hte horrible stuff from that spa set my friend bought me for my birthday - dont like it at all !!!

I'm online via mobile so a short update. I hit Harrods and bought my moisturiser. My sister talked me out of buying an eyeshadow palette as I already have the colours (Lucky she was there!). So bought a beautiful eyeliner in midnight blue and got the amazing free gift (which admittedly has as eyeshadow palette in it). Total was £50.50, but I'd collected a £5 cash reward on reward card (took two years & buying mum's pricey moisturiser and foundation), so nett was £45.50.

I'll post pic of free gift when home. I'm sure value is more than £50

I've got parcels galore today! I got a card from Royal Mail y'day, went today and it was my Olay 3 Point Treatment cream that I ordered ages ago (RM's fault, was sent on Feb 8th:mad:), also went into Boots to collect my S&G 342 bits (Clean Girls, Scrub Of Your Life, I-Foam), also the Naked Shampoo & Conditioner 2 4 £6, got home to find my Champney's Citrus Glow S/G and Lotion thru the door :j:j:j
And yesterday I received my Rainforest Shampoo & Conditioner from Body Shop, along with the Moringa gift set, so I'm definitely done for the month, tho I still have a few bits to be delivered

I'll do better in March, I promise

Just made up my box to send off (once label arrives) and it's well over 2kg - which tells me that I have way too much stuff to get rid of!!

Thanks for all the welcomes.

I saw this, and was gutted I didn't have any (I get my hair dyed at the hairdressers) but when I was looking through my stuff, I found a big block of Lush henna, so I have sent that...hopefully it will be of some use!

Ooh, I have a big block of henna that I don't think I'll use (because I can't be bothered with the faff of doing it myself!) so I'll send that on to them.

Bad Girl, like I can talk;). It's so exciting to get things mail order though isn't it?

There is no excitement like the excitement of recieving a parcel Today's delivery was.... drum roll please... new cordless handsets for home! Not very exciting, but when I saw the box I had to open it straightaway!

Thanks for exempting me from the naughty step this month trudij

Hazz, I have to admit I do hope he sees sense soon, as I really do love him. But I'm going to live for me, for now. Which is easier now I have all of you with me :grouphug: omg, such a dodgy hug :rotfl:

Well with March starting soon, I can start afresh. I might be going to Bluewater tonight, need socks & tights from m&s, I will try not to park in the car park near B**ts. The crazy thing is, I have my dad addicted! Not to buying necessarily (yet), but going in and browsing the special offers. The positive side is he pays for whatever I buy

And I can't wait to open my EL gift!!

And though I have no UUs to report, I did forget that I've started to work through my nail varnish stash. So yesterday was PYNW (is that right?) with Nails Inc. Soho. I got it in the lucky dip. First time using it and it's like a pale/bubblegum pink with gold sparkles. The colour doesn't show up much but my nails looks shimmery. As it's nail varnish I think I can do a WIBA - No. It's a nice colour, but only just. More suitable for my nieces. Actually I'll give them the bottle tonight.

My splutterer is an Avon body polish/shower gel. I've had it so long in cupboard, opened it a few months ago. The plastic of the bottle is really tough, so it's virtually impossible to squeeze it out - but I can see it in there taunting me I think it might have to be binned. I was using all my strength yesterday, and only got a few drops out!

Glad you have got some retail therapy lined up. You deserve it.

I don't like Harrods though....you know they still sell animal furs..:(:(:(..I would never give them a penny of my money. I try to use cruelty free products and Ecover cleaning etc - I know there are issues with BS parent company overseas and baby milk products but animals are my thang and I see so much cruelty to them.

Amazing - whoever posted about domestic violence victims needing to change their appearance - makes you realise the seriousness of it all. Well done to you all packing up madly!

Been catching up... glad you are feeling more positive Sawan!

Have to confess that I bought the BS Groupon Voucher yesterday but I will be using it for mothers day presents(for my mum and the bfs mum)

No more uu as yet, but no more ins either I have been to Boots about 4times in the last 2wks in the hope of getting the deodrant and/or shampoo vouchers from the ACM and I have had neither(not impressed when I hear of everybody elses bargains!! :-/

Have quite a few splutterers so hoping they all go over the wkend
