No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in December Challenge
Options

-
I have a UU and two in's to report:
UU - Nivea Pure Invisible Roll-on - WBA (and I did! See below)
Don't think this is on my December list so will add it. Even though it's not the most effective roll-on I've tried, I like the fragrance. Plus it was £1 at Boots today. They have a deal on quite a few roll-ons and sprays for £1. Cheaper than Sainsbury's 2 for £3.

6 UU to report already! My travel kit literally all ran out this morning.
Aveda shampoo and conditioner sample bottles - nothing special really and I think it's quite expensive for what it is so WNBA
Philosophy eye hope eye cream-WNBA, noticed no difference at all!
Philosophy chocolate chip cookie shower gel - WNBA, it smells really sickly and it's got sodium lauryl sulphate in it.
Origins oil control moisturiser - WNBA, it's far too light for my skin, it's just drinking it up!
Bobbi Brown vitamin enriched moisturiser sample pot - already have bought again! It's really lovely and lasts so long the price is justified if I only use it when my skin really needs the extra boost or I'm going out.0 -
It's toiletries pr0n :P

I am in again. November was as good/bad month (however you want to look at my pre Christmas holiday spend!!). On top of my holiday spend I had three more INs. I got the bottle of OPI Rainbow Connection which I would have bought in the US had I found it there, I got a tube of S&G Scrub of your Life (which I swapped for some Ojon Hair Treatment) and I bought something from M&S a couple of days ago and I'm not going to divulge what it is here. This is because I bought it intending to give to Emma as a Stocking Filler and then realised afterwards that she bought quite a few of these on holiday. So I'm intending for it to be sent to my Secret Santa hence why I'm not divulging here what it is!
Have PMed trudij to include me in Secret Santa.
Have a weekend in York this weekend but not planning any cosmetic spends for me there.
MrM has however offered to buy me the Laura Geller TSV which will be on QVC on Monday as it contains products I already use and don't have stashed.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!
