No buying unnecessary toiletries in May - Challenge

AAAAHHHHHHHHh SPOLIER ALERT!!!
I never watch anything "live" anymore so am always avoiding finding out who has won/been kicked off things. Not too bothered about Apprentice (although I do watch it on & off). I get really annoyed when it's X Factor though. Which is daft really, as I never vote. But I like to guess who's in the bottom 2 as I'm watching.
I have a lot of bumps/spots on the sides of my neck under my ears. I think it may be a reaction to the sun, although it's not sore like sunburn. Hoping that goes down by the weekend so I'm using lots of cream - which is now spluttering (a hand cream as that's all I've got to hand)
Dyed hair with John Frieda mousse last night. It's a bit too light at the minute, hoping it will fade to a more natural blonde. No work colleagues have mentioned it though, so maybe I'm just being paranoid.Virtual Sealed Pot Challenge #148 - £59.93

I get the exact same thing and in my case it is the sun, they should go down now it is cooler, I use a bit of balm, Elizabeth Arden or similar on them or aloe vera gel.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Have ins, three copies of glamour with one each of the freebies, so Bad Gal (wasn't going to bother with this but for £2 thought I would give it a go), Porefessional and That Gal. The sizes are better for me than full sizes really.
When my Avon delivery came yesterday there were some little perfume samples for customers, 5 fragrances and 4 of each one, I always take one to try for myself so I can recommend or buy for me and today I am wearing Christian Lacroix (will check name and put on again later if wrong) and it is blooming lovely. Definitely want this one now.
Also used my last No7 voucher on some eyelash curlers, at £2.25 after voucher, I have wanted a replacement set for a while so this made good sense. Wanted to get one of the Bourjois smoky eyes compacts but resisted so am feeling quite pleased with myself for that:D.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Not read any of the books but one of my friends in the States has and loves them.
Not to fussed to see Adam go last night - its's fair to say I never warmed to him. Maybe because he reminds me so much of my pal's husband.
What mag has the Benefit GWP? I might go on a quick trawl. I never seem to get the timing on these and miss out.No buying toiletries Graduated May 2017Decluttered 2016 2469 items, 2017 1580 items :j2018 3060 itemsSealed Pot Challenge No 0380 -

Blow me, the eye cream has turned up. I am so pleased. It's in a beautiful ground glass pump dispenser, looks expensive.
I note that Bio2You are based in Riga, Latvia. I'm half-Latvian (and half Estonian) so that pleased me. The product itself is made in Italy.
So my Non Bought In 15ml Bio To You Organic Eye Contour Seabuckthorn Cream.
I also thought I had won something in the Glamour draw when an unexpected parcel arrived but it turned out to be a free bottle of Heinz Classic Barbecue Dip/Marinade. Looks yum, anyway!Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0 -
bought Glamour for the benefit face primer also Woman and home as they have a decleor treatment for £30 refundable against purchase of two or more items(will need to find cheapest:rotfl:) plus free gift worth £65 so hope my JL is doing it0
