No buying toiletries in June challenge!

London_baby

3 Outs: Rosewater, Aqueous Cream and sample of garnier intensive: WIBA? No,sank in nicely in the skin but looking at the ingredients it is full of paraffin and mineral oils which I'm trying to avoid.

Ins: Wrights traditional soap, which I'm using as an alternative to my aqueous cream for washing. The smell is v. antiseptic, seemed a bit harsh on my skin first time but i think i need to give it a fair try before coming to a conclusion.
No. 7 toner.

Ali-belle

1 UU - No7 Perfect and Protect serum WNBA as it didn't seem to do much for me and I have an Aldi lacura serum in my stash to use next.

Well a few random ins this morning. The postman has just been and i had a small envelope through when i opened it there is 3 boxes of olay eye dermapods, 1 tube of olay wrinklefiller and 1 tube of olay super serum. No idea where this has come from as there was no paperwork with it and ive not ordered it!

Hi All,

I'm in for this month

Thanks to xoxo for starting the new thread.

Have been away for a few days camping in the Peak District - was fantastic.

Rosemary54 - hugs to you hon, hope things improve soon.

Kaz - hope your DD is on the mend, that sounded nasty. Good luck with your quilt too.

Welcome newbies and big hugs to anyone else who needs them.

Am hanging my head in shame - June has started badly thanks to my avon order arriving with 11 ins:

Liquid wax spray for hair
Eyeshadow primer kit
Pur blanca body spray (ordered edt but it didn't come:mad:)
4 items from the clearpore range - thermal mask, scrub, correcting lotion and toner pads)
2 sachets of lavender face mask
2 sachets of japenese sake and rice face mask

Also whilst on hols i bought a No7 blusher stick using the £5 voucher, so it cost £5 and also a 30ml Cerrutti 1881, this was planned and it is on sale at the moment, I used a £10 voucher from doing surveys so it only cost £4.66.

Out - I smashed a bottle of M&S Isis edt on the tiled floor in the campsite toilets, it was half full and I am mad, it's one of my faves.

UU - No7 facial wipes, have another pack in the stash and wba using £5 voucher but never at full price.

- S&G Calm one Calm all bubble bath - have another in the stash and will def buy again in the future - lovely stuff.

The Magic Freebies newsletter seemed to think that this was sent out to lady members of the Supersavvyme Proctor and Gamble website. That figures.
Wrinkle filler was a disappointment for me as it's tinted - my natural skin colour isn't like the tint.

One UU. Nivea Soft Face/Body/Hands 75ml Moisturising Creme.
WIBA? Yes, this is really lovely. I think I'll get the large tub next time. On Boots or SD points of course. This tube had been kicking around for a while and it's only got used up due to this challenge. Yet it's a lovely product - much nicer than some I've used that are far more expensive.

Joy of joys, :j my 200 ml mystery moisturising body lotion to test has just arrived in the post, so that will be stepping neatly into the breech. :money:

It does mean that my using up my large Nivea normal lotion and 300 ml Aldi urea body butter will be delayed, but having had a quick sniff and smooth - in of a small squidge, I can report that it seems lovely. Gorgeous fragrance, which is a relief.

PYON today with Rimmel Serene - a nice and light pearl colour and just perfect for the summery weather.

I am heading off into town this afternoon to get my hair done and I will have a nose in Savers as I very rarely get there.

Kaz - Hope your DD isn't too sore today.

Fingers crossed on the job hunt Valm.

All of this holiday talk has motivated me and I have booked up for a week's break to London (travelodge) for my birthday next month. Looking forward to seeing some shows.

DD is sore and bruised today and her leg's still oozing fluid. But she's now up and about and we're off to Glastonbury tor for a walk.
DH and I had a row this morning because I said we weren't going anywhere until DS has done his homework and he ranted about how I'd had all week to do it. I was only off on Thursday and Friday and he's had 4 days off. Get . I was vindicated though because he sat down with DS to do the homework and realised what I'd been dealing with. 2 hours later, he's got an almost finished piece of work and I've done nearly all the washing, been out and bought tile grout, grouted half the tiles (this takes me ages cause I'm rubbish at it and it's an awkward position) and got the kitchen done. If I'd been sat with DS doing the homework, none of that would have been done so am happier now.
Still putting on lots of cream on my poor sunburnt legs. I have some really angry patches and it looks like where I've crossed my legs and rubbed off the cream. Ouchy!

I need a new face moisturiser, it's the one thing I've tried so many with over the years, from cheap to Lancome and Estee Lauder and I still can't settle on one. I love the Clinique moisture surge sample from Glamour but it's not got an spf and I think I need one with an spf. Any suggestions of a similar product with an spf - thought I'd ask here as I'm sure you ladies have tried every product on the market!

Facial skincare is my last area to crack what I like and set my holy grail on.

I have to say my HG moisturiser is Estee Lauder Daywear. I love this and I have tried a few others.

UUs/OUTs
L'Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream 30ml - given to my sister who was going out and desperate for hand cream as hers had finished. WIBA? Yes, though preferred the lavendar one. Still using S&G hand food, which is ok, but tube's a bit big for my handbag. Opened an organic surge lavendar one but so far only been used by my sisters and mum!
The Daily Smooth BB - Small amount left in pot, given to my mum as she liked it (and removed it from the bathroom )


INs
4 x Orly nail polishes from my BrandAlley order. Love the colours, the consistency and brush. I've never tried Orly before and out of these have only tried one colour so far, but definitely impressed!

Day 3

Taking advantage of Morrisons’ offers

IN – Olay double action night cream – 50 ml (£2.24)
(was using a “winter” day cream in place of a night cream so I needed a night cream)

IN – L’Oreal triple active day moisturiser – 50 ml (£3.06)
(probably merits a stint on the naughty step)

Since 1 April to date
UU 7
IN 7

Also, I found a little Lush solid snow fairy perfume from dec 09 that I had been saving for 'a special occasion'. It's quite old (especialy as it's lush) and I know I should use it up, but I just can't bring myself to do itI've not had this problem with the rest of my stash because I know I can easily replace it. It's so silly, but I WILL use it and enjoy it instead of it sitting there going bad!

Alilade - Where are you going on holiday? As for your Lush perfume, I can understand your dilemma, but go on, use it! My Mum bought me a lovely cashmere jumper one Christmas, I only wore it once and it began to bobble where my shoulder bag had rubbed against it all day. After that I out it back in the wardrobe, vowing only to wear it on a really special occasion and what happened? Next time I looked at it it had 2 huge moth holes. That really did teach me a lesson.

OUT-The revlon lipstain balm snapped off on first attempt to use and the stain wouldnt leave a colour.I am very disappointed with this product as it was a waste of £5.99.There were no testers available either .Serves me right for getting tempted .

I'd take it back too. There's no way that should happen with a £6 product.

Kaz - your DD's fall sound horrible, hope she has a speedy recovery.

Vivh - Such a shame about your Isis perfume, I'd be cross too, although a novel way to get a UU!

Fiasco - Your London trip sounds nice, what show do you fancy seeing?
