No Buying Toiletries in March Challenge

Just did my nails wih No7 Speed Dry in Coconut Ice, awful nail polish! Takes ages to dry. Obviously I won't be saying that at the Boots interview tomorrow! :rotfl:

Forgot to post my UU when I snuck in to confess my ins yesterday!

3 UU for last week:

Avon Hydrofirming Eye Cream, had this for at least 5 years and it had clearly gone off, used it on my knees and elbows as it was now the same texture as a body butter! I really don't use my eye creams often enough
Winnie the pooh honey lip balm- WNBA, no idea why I bought these in the first place, I'm getting a bit old for cartoon character toiletries methinks! Still got 2 more from the gift set to use.
Seaweed Therapy body lotion stolen from hotel - WNBA, no need to, I'll just acquire more from hotel bathrooms.

I am going to go on a UU spree this week in a desperate attempt to get my monthly UU to be more than my ins!!
At the moment I am at 9 UU and 14 Ins after my shameful weekend of toiletry buying!

One more use left in an intensive conditioner sachet, a tiny sliver of soap in the bathroom and the dregs of an Avon body lotion to get rid of first!

Have a good evening everyone!

I must not keep them, I really did buy them for the gift drawer - I really, really did......
If when they arrive I say keep one of the sets I will confess and sit on the naughty step....promise!

Just out of curiosity, does anyone here use those Tangle Teezer brushes? Since I grew my hair out it has a tendency to get really knotty and tangly, especially after blow drying or when I wake up in the morning, and my normal comb and brush don't do anything for it. I quite like the look of them but am a bit reluctant to pay £10 for a hairbrush if it's no good, so was wondering if anyone had used one before and if they were worth it...

I use a detangler comb from Avon, i don't like their recent ones as they seem really plasticy but the older one i have feels rubbery/plasticy and is fab.

I have couple of UUs

1. Sunsilk brunette conditioner: It was alright though nothing great so WNBA. Have started with a tresemme hair mask now.
2. Lush Sugar Scrub: I have been using it as face scrub and really like it but the MSE in me thinks, it should be easy to make at home so WNBA. In any case have 2 more in the stash for now.

Also have two ins to report
2 Macleans toothpastes. They were 2 for £1 and we have never tried the brand. Though will only open it once the current in use Colgate toothpaste is finished

Hi minerva_windsong,

I use a tangle teezer every day. I have long hair that get knotty and it's a god send. Though I bought it for £3 at Christmas time. Had seen the deal on hotukdeals so you could wait in case it comes up again.

I second that,why don't you recheck your stash to see just how much stuff you have(it is always a shock to me when I do:rotfl:)sounds morbid but I think what if I die suddenly what will happen to all my stuff??......probably be thrown out by my sons who won't appreciate it:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

uu a Clarins foundation that have had for ages and is now too light after getting a tan on holiday so hopefully would not use till next winter!only a bit left and fed up of seeing it.

had the Philips light alarm on bird song today....better than african jungle:rotfl:

Ha, I've already bequeathed my stash to my bestie who is also on this thread but mainly a lurker :T

I'm desperately trying to resist using the No. 7 voucher to get another 2 S&G righteous butters at half price. So I decided to count how many I already have - stopped at 15 without even opening the final drawer as I think I'd got the message....

Trying to post a pic....can't remember how...pah, can't get pic to show, here's a link...
