Evening all.

I haven't been posting much as work has been keeping me very busy and I can't remember all that I wanted to comment on . Off the top of my head...

:T Well done Willow92 and Charlie.

Truji - Red looks beautiful.

No further UU or splutterers for the last day in June. So I can recap on my spending this month.

15 UU's with £5.17 spending on 5 INs (including freebies). I am quite pleased with my UUs over the past few months and I am well under my £15 toiletries monthly budget.

Final two uu of June to report:

S&G Heel Genius, have another in the stash but wnba after that, smells a bit weird and not very moisturising.

S&G Clean on Me -at last, have been using this forever.

Total uu/outs for June - 21. Very pleased with that but my in's more than outweigh that:o.

I'll just sneak in here and post 2 last ins for June when nobody's looking!

Avon nail polish in Gunmetal - oops forgot I ordered this! I was sure I only ordered room sprays, how did a NV sneak in there?

L'Occitane shea hand cream 30ml - freeby from Glamour beauty giveaway, quite excited that this arrived in the post, its soooo expensive to buy!

I just managed to have more UU than ins for June but must try harder in July!

See you all on the new thread!

just a helpful hint for those worrying about graduation photo's. Assuming the outfit hasn't changed since i graduated, i bought a lovely silk blouse and if i hadn't changed to a thick cotton one the sash would have strangled me, it is quite heavy so you so need something with buttons which will stay down and not just get lifted up IYSWIM.

Final UU of the month for me - Palmers cocoa butter hand cream, it's been on my desk at work for ages so i'm glad it's done. Got the body shop hemp one out of my handbag to use up. I know it's really moisturising but i can 'feel' it on my skin all the time and the smell is starting to get to me. But it's only the little tube so i will use it up.

Question - do all No7 face creams smell chemically? I'm on my second tub that was part of a GWP and both (although different ones) smell really chemically. May use it on my feet.

Last two UU for the month
BS Papaya shower gel-WIBA? Was lovely, but probably only if on offer. Have 4 other BS shower gels to use first.
Tesco Vitamin E cleanser- WIBA? I like this range- although my local Tesco stopped stocking it-anyone know if its been discontinued? Wouldn't buy the cleanser again though, left my face a bit tight. Love the Vit E wipes.

Sure deoderant is still holding on.

All in all.... 27 UU and 12 INs. A total of 15 for June.
Must try and keep the INs down for July.

See you all in the new thread.

Wow - July already! :eek::eek:

I was hoping for a final UU yesterday, but nothing happening, although I can kind of see the base of the EL eye repair finally *phew*

One IN to shamefully end the month:
Kirkland Signature (Costco) Borghese Makeup Brush Set: Having lusted after these whenever I saw the various sets for the three or so years I've been shopping at Costco, I gave in last night. They were priced at £19.19 inc VAT but scanned at £11.96 inc VAT. So 9(?) makeup brushes and a brush roll. I will admit that I'm not that ashamed Although I have various brushes, I wanted a set that's easy to pick up and travel with. Also, £12!!! I mean a No7 foundation brush alone (using a goldie) is £12!!

re: Graduation photos. I was glad I wore a suit (I think everybody was) because it was sooo much easier to hook the gown etc on so it didn't move too much. It was aubergine coloured

Trudij Red is stunning, I can't remember if I already said that ]

Over to July!

Forgot my totals, knew something was niggling at me!!
No buying toiletries in June: Unnecessary spend £25.48
No buying makeup in June: Unnecessary spend £36.64
INs: 21
UUs/OUTs: 27

Not happy with my spend (those pesky makeup brushes!!) but I am happy that UUs and OUTs exceeded my INs. Yay!
