No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in January 2012 Challenge!

QueenB.

Ok I will join now, but then will there be a new thread in Feb? If so will I have to repost my list? Sorry for all the questions:o.

So i will tottle off and get that list finished and then put it up on here. Some of your lists are amazing and as someone else said quite tempting:D

Good to know Im not the only one with a slight QVC addiction;)

A couple of UU's for me:j

Lush Mango Bath melt - WBA as I love this stuff but have at least 30 other home made bath bombs/melts etc to use first that DS2 made me for Xmas

Mr B Expert Dry shampoo - WNBA - not a patch on Batiste (imho):p

My HG deo is spluttering so I'll be moving onto a Mitchum stick that was recommended (on here I think) and I've taken another tube of hand cream to work as that is sluttering too

3 UU
Avon Far Away sample - WNBA... long-lasting but not keen on the smell.
MUA Clear nail polish - chucked a while ago but forgot to report WNBA as the brush was rubbish and stuff thats you get for £1!
17 Nail Xtras base coat - WBA decent price and did the job.

I'm not wearing nail polish until February half term to get my nails in better condition. I suppose I'll HAVE to treat my self to new nail polish if I achieve it!!

In
Nip+Fab Leg fix, Tummy Fix, Bust Fix. They were full size products in a set for £12 in TK Maxx. How could I not? And Robanda Vitamin A Cream, ~0.3% retinol for £4.99 I just had to try it!
Whilst this thread in encouraging me to use things up before opening a new one, I'm feeling more tempted to try out "cult" products and must haves that everyone raves about.

I RESISTED!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my - I watched the full 1 hr Smashbox show, and I bought - NOTHING!

Get Me

Oh I feel so proud of myself right now. I know it's on again at 8pm, but they were selling out of the 'pale skin option' in a lot of products - and I really want to watch Corrie!!!! So, strange as this might seem, I'm not too sure that I will be tuning in later. I think I've just had some kind of breakthrough:D:D:D

Well done scrappie!! It's the nail products or Elemis that are my weakness on QVC - haven't indulged for a while now though

Me too!, I was tempted by the blusher, but reminded myself that I have a lot of my Elizabeth Arden one left, and it is nice, I shall skip the 8pm show also.

I had a little tidy up today so I can see what I've got, I wont be needing any bath or hair products for a long while!

This challenge has really helped to encourage me to take better care of myself, I'm actually using my products. Yay me! Yay us!

I'm trying to think what my Holy Grail products are for when it's time to make a new purchase? I'm getting low on cleanser now, just want to use up the last of what I have (clarasonic hydrating cleanser) and some random moisturisers and then I'm going to try my Liz Earle try me set and see how I get on with that but I'd love to find a range I love and can stick to.

I'd love to know what others HG products are!
