    1. a HUUUUGe unopened tube of mango & ? skin-scrub (xmas present from 2010!)
    2. unopened bath bomb things (xmas 2011)
    3. already opened and needs using body wash/gel stuff (birthday or xmas 2010 (or possibly 2009!))

  • My pledge:

    I will not purchase any toiletries (except shampoo, conditioner and soap). I will use body lotions, shower gel, body scrubs, perfume, body sprays, nail varnish, hair sprays, gels, serums etc and make up I have already in my (big) bathroom cupboard.

    I also pledge to do 3 sessions of exercise (at least 30 mins) per week. ;)

    Shampoo used up and £1 into the pot

    I don't need to do an inventory as my stock drawer is back to normal and not that much stocked in there now - yeah! I will need a new moisturiser over the next week or so and a night cream. I've had so many lovely compliments about my skin I'm sticking with what I'm using now

  • A shampoo and conditioner used today :)
    Have signed up for the Second Purse Challenge yesterday, but won't be applying it to toiletries or household products, as it conflicts this challenge!!
