No buying unnecessary toiletries in May - Challenge

Willowbee

Itzybitzy - I'm using the Almond hand cream at the moment and I love it! I had a 10ml tube of the rose one and thought it was gorgeous - it has a really strong scent. Lovely L'Occitane...:rotfl:

UU TBS sweet lemon BB - WBA after the BB mountain has gone. Have a got a S&G one out, its not a righteous butter but another one from the range so may make a nice change.

In Une Foundation Sample
In Nails Inc Bluebell (mag freebie)
In LIB box didnt get the benefit got the Weleda which I dont mind.

I have just discovered thas S*perdrug have just started doing the Elemis Freshskin range, its designed for younger skin but much cheaper.

Just to add to whats been said re the thread, this is one of the few I enjoy as its so friendly and love reading about what you girls have bought, loved and loathed regardless of where it came from its still toiletries and ok buying shouldnt be encouraged but its the nature of the beast! :-) x

So IN's

Monu Reviving Rosewood Mist, 100ml

UU:
john frieda shampoo - WNBA, has SLS in it. also i think its whole spiel of having "inca oil" is a marketing ploy. looked it up and theres little to suggest its going to suddenly make my coloured hair beautiful again.
john frieda conditioner - same as above.
bioderma moisturiser - WBA (if we had it over here :mad:) sinks in fast and according to the sachet comes in huge bottle so very :money: ah well.
Elemis Shower Gel - WBA but only in a kit, i think its overpriced to buy individually.
chloe body lotion - WNBA, perfume body lotions are always ridiculously priced for what they do.

IN:
Liz Earle C&P 100ml kit - got this for free for voting in the sunday times beauty awards :j:money:

also, with the not so sad demise of the john frieda shampoo, my whole stash is officially SLS and SLES free! :T:j:beer::A only taken me since 2009 to manage it :rotfl:

just to add re beauty boxes. i think the beauty box bubble has burst for most people now. they were a massive novelty and they are nice to get once a month but the repeat products mean its only really worth it if you are only getting the one box. I'm keeping Amarya because i cant go cold turkey and this is my little "well i am still getting something!" once a month. also, it has given me the opportunity to try things i genuinely wanted to try that were on my wish list but for mostly half the price it would have cost me otherwise. i do like the neom candle, john masters shampoo and lip balm, ren shower gel and body lotion and the dr haushka cream and will prob repurchase at least one of them. I'm just glad with some of the things that I've not liked from other boxes that i have had the chance to try them in a small size and for a lot less than the full price.

Willowbee agree with your post above.

Evilsquid I'm keeping the Amarya box for the same reason.

Wonder if I'll manage anymore UU tonight.

Hey, evilsquid... http://www.moncoinsante.co.uk/bioderma-crealine-h2o-lotion-micellaire-2x500ml-sans-parfum.html?BPCID=66&BPPID=BZ19514553
It's in France but the delivery doesn't seem too steep for a HG!

Just to say have been good today, was in the supermarket and saw 2 magazines with freebies, but didn't buy. Very proud of myself.
