No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in January 2012 Challenge!

seasideDreamer

Another 2 UUs No7 toner, WBA if I have a voucher but that means I need to spend to get the voucher hmmm and another bodylicious cranberry scrub, ANBA.

I'm getting in the spirit of it all.
3UU's bath ballisitcs in my last 3 baths
1UU Next define body lotion 30ml, okay nice smell but not the best moisturiser

I am also going to take a few lush things to a collegue who is also a fan. Got rid of 7 lush items last week by giving them away to another collegue. Oh and my Lush order I made on Friday should be here tomorrow. So atleast I create a little more space. Will go and sit on naughty step.

IN Had forgot, lush gift set with 6 items in late Christmas present from work friend. Not my favourite items but will hide it till I get some space and maybe with several more UU I will appreciate it more.

Random suggestion, but have you tried washing your face with aqueous cream? It's really gentle as a cleanser but is a non-greasy version of E45 in my experience.

Dirt cheap too.

Not aqueous cream but I've used Dermol on my hands and I still need some moisturiser afterwards. It's the water that dries out my skin as much as the products. I use a hot cloth cleanser and they're quite rich and creamy and take of my makeup (currently on S&G one but the Sanctuary one is my favourite as it's the creamiest).

On the topic of hot cloth cleansers, the Superdrug Vitamin E one is still on at £3.99 (allegedly £5.99 RRP) and there's a 2 products for £3.99 offer on right now so I got the exfoliator for free. :T

UU - Korres Body Butter WIBA? It came in a beauty box, my skin felt really nourished but it took a looooong time to sink in - so umm, maybe if it was on offer.

Evil squid, what do you use in your hair? I was just looking at this Happy Hair range in boots http://www.boots.com/en/Happy-Hair-Days-smoothing-shampoo-300ml_1142647/

FannyAdams, I have just uu'd a bottle of Happy Hair lemongrass & basil glossing shampoo, I have to say I found this really lovely, it's very thin in consistency but a little goes a long way ( I found I had to be careful not to pour out too much). It has a very light 'citrusy' smell and I felt it did leave my hair shiny. I will definitely buy this again when I've got through the other opened bottles of shampoo,
hth, xx

Hi FannyAdams. You can also buy this range in Sainsburys. I buy it for my daughter Emma who unfortunately eats the stuff ! so I tend to buy it when it is on offer. It's on BOGOF regularly.

Thankyou sunshineyday! I can't wait to get throguh my ojon now to give it a try

My stash is looking tiny now, considering I was a dreadful cosmetics hoarder I've done so well chipping away at my stash over the last year or so!

It's nearly time for me to start thinking about what i want to be using when my stash has gone! :T Guilt free!

2 UU

Bamford Geranium Body Lotion, 50ml - WNBA Absolutly lovely and the smell is divine but im sorry, im not going to pay £25.30 for a body lotion. No matter how nice it is lol
Colgate Plax Mouthwash -Sample WBA, its a mouthwash......nuff said

Mingle

AHA! A UU! A boots lavender hand wash that I got for christmas (but I used it as bubble bath). Nice enough.

Hope you're all well ladies! It's good to see some returning faces and Hello newbies!

it really annoyed me thou, the two things i'll need to replace soon are both £19.50 each :mad: think i might wait til boots do some offers then i'll get points too.

Me too. I will need some Erase Paste soon (my benefit pencil concealer is getting very stubby) and I had been saving Advantage Points towards it. Getting a fiver off would have been nice but alas it costs £19.50 too.

Another UU: Tube of Philosophy Amazing Grace handcream. WNBA. Love the fragrance but this product was so thick and difficult to get absorbed into my skin. Another £1. in the pot.

Possible purchase coming up ladies. Sad but true. As mentioned I have found the lovely Sephora by OPI lacquer Break a Leg Warmer on makeupalley. The swapper doesn't want any of my items (PAH!) and is offering to sell it to me at the princely sum of £3.50 so I am now waiting for her Paypal details and hopefully soon it will be all mine (MWAH, MWAH, MWAH).

Here is up to date list of hand creams in my stash – red in use

OPI Ginger Lily hand lotion

L’Occitane shea hand cream x 30mls
TBS Hemp hand cream x 30mls
