No buying unnecessary toiletries in March - Challenge

Well march is off to a good start... NOT! I'm at work and there's bag-for-life bags full of free products on the desks for us to pick from from an event yesterday!! Does it count if I didn't buy it?
No UUs, bad girl, but have sold two nip_fab products on ebay this week.Living cheap in central London :rotfl:0 -
Hi everyone :hello:. I would like to join in for March, I will need to get some cotton wool and a few other things but am going to keep my spends under £10.
I found the February thread a few days ago and have been reading it with interest. I have quite a stash although I haven't documented it yet so will get onto that tonight. It will probably be a shock to the system.VSP member #250 -
Just dropping by to declare 2 INs - managed to track down Glamour mags with Shampoo & Conditioner so:
Percy & Reed splendidly silky moisturising shampoo 100ml
Percy & Reed splendidly silky moisturising conditioner 100ml
Off work today DD2 unwell and then OH found a part from my car sitting on the drive - drove car slowly to garage (with knocking sound) - something to do with the shock absorbers and a spring - anyway sounds expensive :eek:, waiting for the price but may seriously curtail spending this month!0 -
I am in for March! I haven't had too many UUs this month but I'm coming to the end of a few things.
I'm aiming for no INs but I'll have at least 1 when the Revlon lip butters come out as I love sheer lipsticks.0 -
Good start to the month- went into Boots for hair dye (not counted as an IN as as it was needed) and didn'tget anything else at all - even though all the toiletstoiletries were on this massive 3 for 2!Sealed Pot Challenge Number 1225

I will be painting my nails tonight as I have been outside spray painting my drainpipes and my hands are looking a bit sorry for themselves. I am hoping to finish these quite soon, especially as it's so lovely outside at the moment so the kids will go out and play straight after school.
Got up this morning and the dishwasher had been emptied and stacked. It was lovely because I was too lazy to do it last night and knew the kitchen was a terrible mess for me to tackle this morning. I was thinking awDH does love me. Then DD said she did it. She's 10 and having wild nasty mood swings (every 2 months at the moment) so I'm actually even happier
. She DOES love me
. That is just the best present I could possibly have in the whole wide world

Hi ladies,
First thanks to Itzybitzy for the new shiny thread.
I have one UU from February to declare: a 17 ultimate length mascara in teal. WNBA, these coloured mascaras don't work for me. Have two more on the go at the mo but after that it's black/brown all the way for me.
Sawan - hope you like the new night cream!
As for the bikini line: I shave too. I've never got on with waxing and my epilator doesn't have a add on for sensitive bits.
I actually have an unexpected IN to declare: I have ended up with a one week trial of Recovery Concentrate from Sensai. There are 6 little tubes of moisturiser. I'm writing this at work and a man gave them to me as he couldn't get them all in his 1 litre plastic bag to pass airport security. He'd bought loads of Sensai & Kanebo for his wife! They probably rank as the most luxurious cosmetics I'll ever use :-) Do I have a tattoo on my forehead saying "I like toiletries" ?!Do nothing in haste; look well to each step; and from the beginning think what may be the end - Edward Whymper0 -
i have a UU:
Origins Vitazing sample WNBA - this stuff is a waste of money. it was FAR too dark for my skin tone, it was like using a very thin, useless foundation thats was about 4 shades too dark. it didn't really do much apart from give me and off tanned tint. had to use lots to get it to moisturise properly so had to apply more.
i'm moving back with my parents so I'm going to have to take a hit of stuff my mums put in my old room for me to use:
IN: Origins ginzing mini, Elemis Frangipani shower gel, Bare Minerals Cleanser, Bare minerals moisturizer.
also IN of Percy and Reed hair mask via Glamour.
