No Buying Toiletries in April Challenge

Elemis PCMC is my HG moisturiser. Seriously cannot live without it although I only use it as a day cream as I think the texture of it suits my skin better for day time use and I need something a little thicker for night cream.

Valm - have you tried PCMC night - thinkit's call oxygenating night cream? It's lush...but as usual with Elemis, a little on the expensive side!

Haven't posted on here for a while but finally got some more UUs. One Sure Woman antiperspirant and an Alberto Balsam shampoo. WIBA? Have more of both in the stash to use up but will probably be buying both again at some point. One in to report since my last update - Rimmel X10 Flash Volume mascara.

Evening ladies, I'm missing pics of nails/stashes Where are you thevicster and valm? xoxo I know you have enough varnishes too!! And not seen fixx for a while with her nail pics either

Plus the board seems a bit quiet with the holidays I think. I'm guessing it's more busy social lives with all the time off ? I'm around, just not at laptop very often, but constantly keeping up with my mobile. Ahh mobile internet :j:j

Tonight's nails (a quick paint-before my nieces came along and started asking me to do them!!) Nails Inc Kings of Neon set from last year, with very basic yellow dot flowers.


I was looking at my UU/IN ratio for this month, and unplanned spending, and I know the month's not over, but I'm very impressed with myself to the extent I can't believe it :rotfl:This thread is doing wonders for me :T

I have tried this one scrappie and you're right it's lush. I only had one of the small tubes of it. I do actually like Liz Earle Skin Repair for night time use and will probably go back to using this once I've finished the two night creams I have in use and in my stash (Elizabeth Arden Visible Difference and No7 Night Cream). I bought both on offer as I tend to find that any moisturiser at night works well for me although saying that I've been supplementing it this last week with the Goodworks oil that I picked up. I've moved to an office with air con and it's really drying my skin out.

Sawan I will be painting my nails today - and my toes too. Will let you know the colours later. Yours look fabulous. My daughter's getting into nail art and has painted her toe nails with a black polish with little white polka dots on top. I don't have the patience though.

I've uu a Peach Bloom soap - feel as though I've really been making inroads into my soap stash lately.

A couple of weeks ago I came across an S&G Heel Genius Foot Cream that I had forgotten that I had for Xmas and so I have made a start on it and so far am liking it.

I will put on a face mask over the holiday period but after that I don't think I'll be using anything else up during April.

The sun isn't out here today - hope it is where you are.

morning all,

I have another couple of uu's :j

molton brown warming eucalyptus shower gel, 100ml, - this smells really clean and refreshing but I wnb as I think Molton Brown products are way too overpriced

S&G clean on me, 400mls, love this and a bottle lasts for absolutely ages. I have another one in the stash so no need to buy again,

Have a great day ladies, xx

I've got a splutterer, Boots Expert Sensitive Moisturiser SPF 12. Its got a pump dispenser which has now given up cos there's so little in the bottle so I'm relegated to scraping the lotion off the tube and the inside of the bottle. I WBA, its cheap, does its job and I like the SPF as I don't do sun! I use Olay 3 Point Serum underneath so at £30 for that and £5 for the lotion they kind of even each other out cost wise

I gave my daughter some perfume yesterday, samples of Covet Pure Bloom as I have a full size bottle on its way, Boss Pure Purple as its not really my sort of fragrance, too fruity, and Kate Moss Velvet Hour samples as again, I have a full size bottle of this. I've listed all my perfumes (63):o into seasons, so am currently working thru 19 Spring fragrances, some full size, some samples/minis, some PP oils.

I have UU Max Factor Miracle Touch Creamy Blusher , i WBA, this is my HG and i love the subtle glow it gives me. Once this is almost finished i will be replacing it, or sooner if Max Factor is on any sort of offer when it's time to replace my foundation.

I bought some more Vo5 mousse yesterday because i'm almost out. It was any 2 products for £4.50 so i got Ds1 some hair gel he wanted too.

IN: Lacura foot cream. I popped into Aldi looking for the Batiste shampoo (I'm too early - it's due in next week) and bought a tube of this only because it is called Hydro - Urea and the last product that I used containing urea was Flexitol which was fabulous but more expensive than this one so thought I'd give it a go.

Can you let us know if you find this product as effective please!
