No to Buying Unnecessary toiletries in August 2011!

LadyMorticia

Thanks Alioth.

Two INs today. One necessary, one maybe unnecessary:

Listerine Antibacterial Mouthwash - Necessary.
Superdrug Baby Wipes - Maybe unnecessary as I have like two packs of Tea Tree wipes in my stash but baby wipes are so much more gentler on my sensitive skin.:o

Also two UUs:

Colgate Plax Mouthwash - WIBA? - Yes. Leaves my mouth feeling clean and I like the taste.
Superdrug baby wipes - WIBA? - See one of my latest ins.:rotfl:

Hi can I join in with this challenge please?
I need to work my way through the draw under the bed before it breaks under the weight!!!!
Should have some outs this time next week as I have listed all the things i don't use (2 philosophy exfoliating washes, 2 shear splendor serums, shimmer body lotion that makes me sneeze, decleor balm and some SBC gel) to make start on clearing it out!

Two UU today a Sanctuary bath foam, WNBA
BS body butter Almond one, WNBA smelt too strong.

Getting into the swing of this now. Looking for things to use up.

Loved the hair colour Lady M, had it that shade myself. Once upon a time, that with blue blue front piece.

Trudi .. glad I'm not the only one with an excessive stash of things lol

:hello: welcome to the newbies - Good luck with the challenge.

I am having no luck with any UUs for over a week now and none of my splutterers are progressing.

Went to visit my mum today and she has gifted my 2 Listerine mouth washes :T:T Just in time as I am now onto my last bottle.

So ... a UU L'Oreal Casting Sublime Mousse in Radiant Golden Brown.

WIBA? Yipper, skipper, this one is brilliant in the way it works. No liquid 'foam' going PHLURT! all over the bathroom from the bottle as with the Clairol Foam, but a nicely measured dose of proper colour foam into my palm.
30 min. development time, washed out easily, most importantly, my scalp is not stained or itchy as with the Clairol.
The colour has put what basically looks like rich mid brown low-lights into my still very dark brown hair (it's naturally dark mid brown.) A not un-pleasing effect.
The in-pack conditioner is really lovely, it's in a cute, easy to open in shower bottle and there's enough for three doses on my fine, shortish hair.

Two OUTs for me over the weekend (which means I've hit my goal of 80 OUTs for the month ):

Simple Kind To Skin Facial Cleansing Wipes - WBA as they're very good at removing makeup if you need a quick fix (late night, weekend away etc) and feel nice and refreshing. Still got some of the Boots cucumber ones in the stash though which aren't as good but which I'm determined to use up next month.

Charles Worthington Front Row Stay Cool Heat Defence Spritz - WBA as it makes my hair really smooth and easy to straighten and also holds the style. The one downside is that it's a wee bit expensive but it's quite often on offer in Boots or in the £5 haircare voucher dealie.

I'm also pondering doing another Give and Make Up package to get rid of a few little things that I know I won't use.

ETA: Also got a splutterer - my Batiste dry shampoo is getting to the stage where it's not 'rattling' so much and seems to be more air than powder, so I might buy a new one of those after work.

Good morning ladies. The start of my week off and I'm still up early!! Mind you MrM is away tonight so no alarm to wake me tomorrow.

One more UU yesterday: 35ml bottle of Elemis Frangipani Monoi Melt oil. Have more in my stash. I like this but it''s a bit of a faff having to heat it up to use it. Had a bath yesterday so placed it in the bath water to heat it.

Have a good day everyone.

Was just emptying my bedroom bin earlier and came across an un-reported chuck out. A Superdrug Tea Tree Moisturiser that my friend bought me at Christmas. I had been using it on my feet. She had seen DS's tea tree products in the bathroom and must have thought they were mine - I do use the oil in shampoo and conditioner from time to time as well as a zit dryer upper.
It was great on my feet but sadly the pump failed and short of a hacksaw, nothing was going to get in to the bottle. Although I have bought a hacksaw (an Aldi special) it's not worth the faff.

WIBA? No, it's not the right product for my facial skin, though my feet liked it.
