No to buying unnecessary toiletries in September!

trudij

Im in again - thanks to my bloody soap stockpile !!!! Im pretty sure I hardly have more than two of anything any more (and its been that way for months - I reckon I could almost have graduated in Januaryish if it hadnt been for them - though Id have missed you lot WAY too much!!)

no ins, or outs yet - no real news at all - though Red is looking very wide, will add a photo of her in a sec for anyone still interested (for any newbies since my last photo of her, Red is my horse, shes in foal and due at the end of January though she looks like shes due now - and all of you are going to be fairy godparents!!)

Welcome back and welcome newbies/returners, and thanks to EH for starting Septembers thread !! xxx


here she is -

Alioth

Red is looking good!


My stash follows. Strikethroughs are the items that I UU'd last month. Unfortunately, since starting the challenge my stash grew, but this is because of all the freebies and competition wins that I have been getting lately. Can't complain
My task for last month was to only have 1 pot of foundation, and I partly succeeded: used up 2 things and found a way to use my Bare Escentuals mineral powder that's too dark - I turned it into tinted moisturizer. However, there is still some left. This months task is to use up all of the sachets (but one, which is anti-itch eczema cream)
Edit: Looked into my stash and only found 4 sachets! I've been pre-empting this

Can you count me in again please?!

I'll be along soon with an updated list :j

mad_scientist

Hello to all the newbies and thanks EH for starting the new thread.

Count me in for another month please!

I did quite well in August, 7 UU and only 1 in and that's only because I got my Avon order yesterday, I was so close to a whole month with no ins

Should finish off a few things this month, I have an Avon body lotion which has been nearly finished for 2 months, surely it will go soon!

Alton_Towers

Evening all! I am IN!!! I have got an Avon order due but other than that I am going to NOT buy anything!

bev97

Hi everyone

Count me in again for this month, and thanks to EH!

Had 4 UU's in August but have many LHJ 's so don't know if it's worth posting my stash list as there's been little change, but I do keep a check on the list regularly and it does help curb my spending.:money:
Anyway, welcome all newbies and hoping for a NO SPEND MONTH (on me anyway, but will need to buy some gifts and may start Xmas shopping....):D

bunberry

My first (and hopefully last, unless The Body Shop has more insane offers) INs of the month

I'm definitely in for September (and a little freaked out that it's September :eek:)

No you are not alone as I don't know where the last year has gone - I have this overwhelming feeling that I need to get my life sorted out....time to put a some thought into this. :think:

Red is looking fab Trudji

So I had one last August UU - Nivea Facial wipes. WBA as I quite like them. This brings my monthly UU total to 8 with INs of 12 (mainly birthday gifts) with a spend of £8.07.

I have a boots voucher which I think I will put towards a replacement No 7 night cream as I am fast approaching the bottom of my last jar.

I will be back with my updated stash list.

Weclome to all the newbies :wave:

Helen1971

Hello, quite excited to be reporting some UUs (possibly a bit of a cheat because only just joined the thread but have been reconsidering my toiletries-related behaviour since finding this thread in August!)

L'oreal demaq expert eye make up remover. WIBA? Possibly. I got it in Ethel Austin for £2 (when will I learn to stay away from discount shops?) and probably wouldn't pay the full whack.

Anne French cleansing milk. Bought this in a fit of nostalgia (Remembered the adverts in Mizz and Just 17 from my teens). WIBA? I might actually. It really gets the make-up off efficiently.

Make Believe self tanner. Symptom of ongoing obsession with finding the self-tanner that will convincingly turn my ice blue skin golden whilst drying quickly and not smelling like rancid biscuits. So not asking for much then. WIBA? Yes. It smells nice, like caramel, but still not as good as St Tropez. Not a budget buy either (£30)

Normandie body lotion. Part of a range Tesco used to do and still might (I don't live near one any more). Think it might have been 4 years ok'd, oh the shame. Still smelled nice though, like lemon & grapefruit.WIBA? Probably not. Smelled nice but there are better things out there.

Palmolive olive shower cream. WIBA? Yes, it was lovely, although only after I use up the other 946 shower gels in the stash.

Soap & glory flirtigo. Actually I think it is now called something else, girligo or something, which shows how long I've had it. It was a birthday present in 2008. WIBA? No, even though it smells nice and does the job well. It is spray on moisturising mist and the damn bottle is impossible to hold after a couple of sprays because your hands get slippery so you can't press the nozzle! Would be much better with one of those trigger things like you get on spray bottles of Mr Muscle!

Clinique deep comfort body butter. WIBA? No. Thought it was a bit boring, smelled boring and wasn't worth the money.

Diorific lipstick. WIBA? Definitely, it's my favourite. Still have 2 in the stash though, terrified in case they discontinue it. You have to specially ask for it at the Dior counter cos it's not something they keep on the counter any more.

YSL touch! !clat. WIBA? Actually no, despite having used it for years. Tried one of the cheaper alternatives and found it just as good!

Sample of Agent Provocateur perfume. Didn't like it. Husband loved it though.


So feeling very smug
