No buying unnecessary toiletries in April - Challenge

Mrs_Addicted_to_Spending

Hi 2 more UUs to report - Boots Cocoa Butter Body Butter - was a present but would not buy as I don't like the smell. Clinique Moisture Surge Gel also UU and can't afford to buy again.
Had to TA a Neal's Yard Power Berry moisturiser - was free with magazine but best before date was December 2011 - I admit I did try it but my skin is stinging now so i've chucked it.
I now only have 2 moisturisers left - one is too rich and one is not rich enough (but will be able to use it in the Summer when my skin is more oily). So will have to actually buy one - shock, horror! Think I'm going to get TBS Calming Aloe Moisturiser as I'm using the cleanser from that range atm and my skin likes it. Also it's not too expensive compared with Clinique ones that I've been using.

So having caught up with the thread I have a UU to report:-

30ml tub of Elemis PCMC. HG product. Have opened last tub though - *starting to hyperventillate*. The last tub lasted 3 months though although I have been eeking it out by using a different moisturiser at the weekends when I haven't been applying make up over it so I could wait for the alternative to absorb unlike my beloved PCMC which sinks in straight away. My skin went "AAAAH!" this morning when I put it on.

Can wait for 29 April surely to buy replacement? Unless Dollipop comes up trumps and says it was a mega deal she got when she bought this recently.

Have repainted my fingernails and am wearing OPI Espresso Your Style. One of my all time faves. Gonna go now have Easter eggs to eat. x

What is the Green people eye gel I am intrigued.

Also a UU dead sea spa handcream not sure if I'd buy it again as fairly expensive but did a good job and nice smell.

It is fantastic and cheap http://www.amarya.co.uk/index.php/brands/green-people/eye-gel-day-by-green-people.html

So, just to make a point that he was not pleased, he decided to throw a chair at me. Just picked it up and hurled it across the room he did. Now that I could almost handle (after all we deal with all kinds of crazy, don't we!) but in my rush to move out of the way of said chair, I slipped and broke a nail. I BROKE A BLOOMING NAIL. That I cannot cope with - who do these people think we are?? Rant over.

FGS!! I get so cross at things like this. Selfish beggars!

Does this cream contain White Mulberry as this is a really good ingredient for brightening the skin?

Can't believe you were robbed whilst someone was viewing your house!

I dont see White Mulberry...but there's a lot of latin there lol. Could be

I know...and of all the stuff I had in the house, some premium brands, they robbed my Avon!

Just popped in to say hi to everyone, no UU today, really looking forward to my Amarya box coming.

I have an 'in' to 'fess up to

---

Was doing my Aldi shop (all fruit n veg come from there!) and decided to go and have a 'look' at the cosmetics - as they had been mentioned on here.

Why? Why did I do that??? Came away with 'some serum'!! Clearly I 'need' it, as I can't event remenber what the heck it is!! Was still reeling over my broken nail, needed to make myself feel better. It was a bit like a sugar rush, felt nice at the time, but now im back down to earth wondering why I did it.

Oh well, will give it a try and see what happens.......

3 IN
H&M Pear & Cucumber shower gel
Lush Catastrophe Cosmetic face mask
Lush Creamy Candy bubble bar

Though I predict that I will have a few UUs in this month.

some more TA, tried to use them before and were just awful.

studio makeup black eyeliner - WNBA massive effort to get on and get colour uniform. also think this has started drying out.
Blink & Go mascara - WNBA this was truly awful. barely went on my lashes and when it did it just clumped. so bad i wouldn't even GA to someone!

hi everyone

I have some of uu's and TA's to report

uu Elemis PCMC cream - wnba, I used to quite like this but after a while realised that it didn't seem to actually do anything for my skin, I ended up digging some clarins out of the stash and used the remainder of the PCMC on my feet.

uu Quickies nail polish remover pads - my HG nv remover, always have these in the house and have another pack in the stash so no need to repurchase just yet.

TA - Neals yard berry moisturiser - thanks to Mrs Addicted to Spending for pointing out that these have a uu date:T, I also got mine as a magazine freebie and hadn't even realised that there was a uu date on it, needless to say mine was also out of date!

TA - Boots Time Delay microdermabrasion polish - I don't know how many years I have had this but I'm not willing to put it anywhere near my face, I kept the little polishing gadget that came with it though as I might try using it with some cleanser.

Have a few splutterers at the moment so hoping for a few more uu's soon

happy pampering, xo
