No Buying (Un-needed!) Toiletries in JULY Challenge!

Happy belated birthday to Alton Towers and EH!! Hope you both had a wonderful day

Welcome to everyone who's just joined (or re-joined) :beer:
Going to post a few of my UUs as not totally unpacked yet to post my INs

UUs
Pantene Aqua Light Shampoo 75ml - WIBA? No. I do like the conditioner of this, but the shampoo never really felt like it was cleaning my hair IYKWIM? Onto S&G Glad Hair Day
Sanctuary Fresh-Faced Purifying Wash 140ml - WIBA? Yes. Bought it with a skinny a while back. Smells nice & does the job. Onto an Organic Surge tissue-off cleanser now, but also opened a S&G Scrub Your Nose In It for when I want a wash-type cleanse (liking it so far).
Estee Lauder Advanced Repair Eye Cream - WIBA? Maybe. Not for a while. I was given this by my sister and because of the tiny amount needed it was a LHJ. Onto an already open Clinique All About Eye Serum (rollerball style).
Elemis Nourishing Shower Cream 100ml - WIBA? Hopefully at some point. This is one of the ones sister2 gave me recently. Smelt lovely, nice to use, but no idea how much a full size (probably an astronmical amount). Now using an Anna Sui Night (flight) of Fancy shower gel, again given to me by sister2.
Boots Double Faced Cotton Wool Pads - WIBA? Yes. This was last of two packs bought. Bought another 2 at the weekend (will list with ins later). I think the manufacturer or something has changed in comparison to last year though, or maybe I had a dodgy batch, they seemed to fall apary quicker. New pack seems ok so far.
Wella Colour Care Shampoo 50ml - WIBA? Maybe. Nice enough to use. Smelt nice.
Wella Colour Care Conditioner 30ml - WIBA? Same as shampoo above.

OUT
Orly Matte Gold Nail Varnish 18ml - WIBA? Yes. Totally unintentional out. I was taking things from suitcase to room and dropped the bag of polishes (thank God it was in a bag) - this one smashed somehow (guessing it hit door on way to floor) and gold polish everywhere in bag. Took me ages to clean up other bottles, and was literally pouring nail varnish remover onto my hands afterwards to clean it off. So, less than half a bottle of remover left (and I worried about buying a large bottle in case it took too long to finish :rotfl:)

I started typing this post about 1 pm. It's now 3:45 pm :eek::eek:

Congrats on hubby getting the job Lynseydee :j

Hi all! Not had a chance to get on here for a few days. Have been knitting so can't type whilst I do that!
Belated happy birthdays to those who've had them recently and welcome to all of the newbies. You'll love it here .
Will have some UU's to announce very soon I think (fingers crossed ). Hope everyone's well. Well done to those of you who's DH/OH's have got new jobs. It takes away some of the stress for sure doesn't it?

Well 2 more INs just shampoo and conditioner - Aussie stuff was reduced to £2.49 a bottle in Bodycare so figured Id get it whilst I saw it cheap...£4.98 for the two is certainly the best price Ive seen it....

OH has been asked to go to a job interview in London for next week - bloomin typical timing eh! Wouldnt mind if he got the job but it would have to be a pretty decent salary to justify the extra cost of living there. The place itself is in covent gardens so pretty central london....

I know I'm cheating as I only joined yesterday and it was nearly empty anyway but I have a UU:-

Pantene Conditioner - WIBA? Maybe, really would depend on what offers are on at the time.

Also might throw out the night moisturiser I started using last week as I'm beginning to suspect it's causing forehead spots:eek:. It was a freebie via a Tesco Home Panel trial and ended up in my box of goodies once the trial finished so it's not something I can pass on to someone else.

IN Sainsbury’s anti-dandruff shampoo for normal hair - 300 ml (really the regular shampoo for my OH but I might use sometimes)

Since 1 April (when I started here)
UUs 11
INs 15

seasideDreamer

A UU Tesco vitamin e moisturiser Id buy again for use on the body rather than face. A few outs...
Lush talc to my mum...never use the stuff
Then some ebay bits: Perfume, lip gloss, glitter stack, nail varnish

Ah well, another day, another In to report

Got my Avon order today and I ordered 2 of the gel eyeliner pencils from the Clearance book. I already have the Bronze and really like it so I bought another of this and a Khaki.
I also bought their new eye make up remover on special offer and it is the teeniest bottle ever! I'm sure the bottle is worth the £1.50 I paid but I certainly wouldn't pay a fiver for it!

And that should be it for Ins this month, so I had better get cracking on some UU to balance them all out!

One UU for today, SBC Cotton Gel, WNBA - this came as part of a QVC TSV a few years back. It wasn't moisturising enough for my legs but it was meant for sensitive skins so it was quite handy for putting on straight after shaving my legs. It took far too long to UU like this though so I just started to pile it on my arms and legs instead!

Have a good evening everyone!

Another UU - go me, 2 in one day:T.

BS Vit E Toner - WIBA? Yes, I have used this many times although I'm not that sure what good it does!

EssexHebridean

Lynsey so pleased for your hubby - well done to him!

Thanks to all for birthday wishes - you'd none of you forgotten at all as it was yesterday, so your wishes were perfectly timed!

UU'd a Biore nose strip thing this morning for no better reason than I found it in the bathroom drawer - those things are really quite alarming to use, aren't they! :rotfl:

A few more in's - some birthday related:
Mini Sanctuary facial wash
nail varnish remover pads
Bath scrunchie & exfoliating gloves
Metallic Blue Collection 2000 nail varnish
Sanctuary salt Scrub sachet
Sanctuary face mask sachet
And some not:
6 x L'Oreal gentle eye makeup remover - this is currently at £1.37 per bottle in Superdrug with 50 extra points per bottle purchased. Although I didn;t need it *yet* it is a HG and I have no intention of stopping using the stuff, so it seemed a sensible purchase.

Welcome to the newbies/returners, I have added you to the list!
