No buying (unneccecary!) toiletries in February Challenge!!!

Fiasco55

My incentives are to get rid of the clutter, find HG products, spend less cash and save up £1 per UU in my SPC for xmas. Not too much to ask really :beer:

My incentive is purely to declutter the house. It also makes me feel good when I ignore Boots points promotions and offers - just because it's a bargain doesn't mean I need it!!

I've realises I don't have that much of a problem after listening to you lot!![/QUOTE]
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I still haven't picked up my replacement dry shampoo yet and today started using the travel size can instead. Need to get to HB as this will only last a few "inbetween days".

Hi All,

Must admit to being rather neglectful the last couple of weeks due to being massively understaffed at work and working silly hours and also having my driving test :eek: which I was massively stressed about and finally passed :j woo hooo!!! Just about managed to keep upto date with January's thread but find myself with 29 pages to catch up on here, will get down to that later.

A few unannounced UU from Jan I hope noone will mind too much if I declare here:

Small pot of S&G Righteous Butter - Quite like this but more in the stash anyway
Osiris Avise face wipes - Nice enough, did the job with no ill effects
Bomb Co. Marigold Bath Creamer - Nice and moisturising but didn't like the little bits it left to clean out of the bath!
Small pot of No7 Essential Moisture Night Cream - I'm not bowled over by this, its ok but don't feel much benefit but have a large pot to get through out of the stash anyway before I start thinking about alternatives
Hotel body wash/shampoo - Smelt a bit masculine for my liking but did the job!

And finally, a few February IN......

Was sick and tired of struggling with shampoos that didn't really agree with my hair and endless bad hair days so bought 3 for £10 in Boots:

Aussie Aussome Volume Shampoo
Aussie Aussome Volume Conditioner
Aussie Three Minute Miracle Intensive Conditioner

My hair is much happier as a result so feel at least a little vindicated! Has anyone used unloved shampoo as shower gel? I've been trying to persevere using up a couple of shampoos that do nothing for me but finding it a real LHJ!!

Ok, that's me for now, off to work then I'll catch up reading here later, unless Mr Ems decides to whisk me out for Valentines but I wont hold my breath! :rotfl:

Morning ladies!

Happy birthday VALM!

Sarah and Scrappie it's good to see you back :-)

UU
SD Heart on my Sleeve Dry Shampoo: WIBA? Yes. It lasted me a lot longer than Batiste so it was better value for money. I'm now on to my next & last in stash SD Away with the Fairies which smells lovely IMO.
TIGI Sleek Mystique Shampoo 750ml: WIBA? Yes, see below.
TIGI Sleek Mystique Conditioner 750ml: WIBA? Yes. I really liked the scent of this, and used together my hair was smooth & smelled beautiful :-) It would no doubt have lasted me a lot longer if sister was not using it too. She has said she's ordered her own set (hers ran out & used mine rather than replacing hers). She also told me there was enough for a few washes, but as predicted by me, it spluttered it's last when I went to wash my hair.

So no shampoo/conditioner left. I have 2 sachets which I can use until I finally decide what I want to buy!

I'm now off to google beauty boxes and all of these brands I've never heard of. Thank goodness I don't have QVC!

I've subscribed to the Amarya beauty box from net month,I was thinking that a beauty box would make a good birthday gift for my sister but don't really want to spend the amount it costs for a 6 month or 1 year subscription for her, are there any other beauty boxes where you can purchase a one, two or three month subscription as a gift?

latest in beauty is a buy when you want box,I just get the ones I fancy
