No Buying Toiletries in May Challenge

sawan82

To make the rest of my post seem not so bad, a UU first:
Anna Sui Secret Wish Magic Romance Shower Gel (75ml?): WIBA? If I could! I really like the scent of this, and love the perfume. Still have half a bottle of the scent and almost full matching body lotion.

INs
Benefit Skincare Sample Kit (free from Debenhams)
Estee Lauder Lipstick sample kit (little pot type thing on a card with a little brush, again free from Debenhams)

Ordered:eek::eek:
Nails Inc Rewards Membership (not counting that as an in (though it may lead to some!)) and Hoxton Crackle. Resisted Serpentine Road as planning on trying to use my Debenhams BC card points to try and buy the metallics set exclusive to them. Unnecessary spend: 8.95 (£5 taken off with rewards points - but delivery is £5!!)

BS Glitch:
Coconut shower cream, Sweet Lemon Body Body Whip, Coconut Shimmer BB (all free)
Love Etc £10 gift set for my niece's birthday (already gone last week, I'm an awful aunt )
Mini Mango £5 set for other niece (just because she's a cutie and it made up my spend)
Sweet Lemon Body Scrub (no excuses, this is for me, been wanting to try it since it was released).
(Not counting it as unnecessary spend as the two gifts total £15 retails and that's what I spent totally )

Now I'm trying to stay away from the BrandAlley site as those Orly polishes are screaming my name, and I don't have any Orly ones.

VALM, shall we start a nail polish addicts anonymous (NPAA) thread? :eek::o:rotfl::rotfl:

I'll update sig with spends, but ins when they arrive, in case they don't....

Question - how can you get hair dye to come out faster ( i know most people want to perlong it ) but I used a dye that made it come out black , grrr!!!

I had the same issue and I've noticed that I now have dark gingery highlights as my hair has faded fractionally. I have green eyes and used to dye my hair a similar colour years ago, but it's still not a look I was after this time around.

It looks, um, different, even though it's not very noticeable.
I suspect it will be soon, as the summer sun always fades my colours.

My scalp has settled and my hair is back in good nick so I think I will risk a lighter brown dye - perhaps this weekend. I have freebies to use up - and NOT the blasted Clairol foam!!

Hanval - I was good and just got myself a cola to see me through the afternoon! Still resisting the BS glitch and hoping it'll end soon! :-)

Am I reading this right, you used to dye your hair the same colour as your eyes :rotfl::rotfl:, green, i'm guessing not.

Two ins to report 2 x Superdrug salt spray for hair. I only got two as it was two for £3.49 which still worked out cheaper than the fudge one they had (v mse!).

I have INs to report i knew going into boots was a bad idea

3 NV's and a sure deodorant

i do have a UU of sure deodorant though and i did need the other one. But as for the NV's... erm! :rotfl:

Lemon_Tree

i'm contemplating chucking a small No 7 tub of Time resisting moisturiser. I have to admit i've never like it and really hate the smell. it was a GWP but i still feel guilty, i guess i should use it up on my feet though. I do have other small tubs/samples in my stash so won't need to go a buying.
