No buying unnecessary toiletries in May - Challenge

Adela31

Hello, add me for may, sorry I've been missing in action hehe! Not many ins, much needed arnica gel but otherwise ok.

I've finally figured it out. I'm an emotional shopper and eater come to that.

So it comes down to when I fall out with the husband, I will eventually buy myself something. Or something for my sons. It's not as bad as it sounds. I don't spend a fortune, my accounts are paid in full and there is money in the banks. I guess it's my stress reliever.

I honestly wish they'd deploy him back to A'stan to get him out of the house but there is no chance of that. He retires in 21 months and I swear I will have to find a full time job in order not to kill him or take up drinking.

I will post the result of this weekends argument later when I've had time to decide whether to keep it, return it, or gift it to one of the sons girlfriends.

A makeup UU!

17 Hide and Chic concealer: this was a freebie from the ACM and I WBA as it brightened my undereyes without caking.

Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend, back from the cinema, it was really fun. Looking forward to not having to get up at 6am to go to work in the morning. Hoping to be able to relax, read a book and have a bit of a pamper day tomorrow

I know a lot of you don't like the Poreffessional, but I used my sample today and I do think my foundation went on smoother. I must add though that this is the first primer that I have used so others could be better, but I was happy with it and will continue using my sample.

UU Montagne Jeunesse cucumber peel off mask WBA haven't used a peel off mask for while and although it's like peeling of your skin it sure does feel lovely afterwards.

UU Mitchum deo WBA got another out the stash HG for me.

IN Australian Bodycare volumising shampoo, wanted something to give my hair a bit of oomph but also needed to be SLS free so got this to try from H&B and had a reward voucher so got £1.50 off! Used it this morning and its made my hair lovely and soft, not sure it's volumised and so far no itchy scalp!

Re the Maybelline Illegal Lengths mascara (think it was fiasco who asked) its FAB! Made my lashes lovely and long, no clumping. Lasted well through the day no flaking. It does what it says on the tin (well tube!).

It would have been nice to get the porefessional ............but i got the Weleda! Which i am happy with as i love creams However, i have stupidly big pores...and something (probably my lack of ability to keep my hands away from my face) is giving me bad spots in the t zones, namely my chin and forehead! I usually have this problem every month at a certain time so im hoping it is that and nothing else

Montagne Jeunesse chocolate Orange face mask

Was bought this for my birthday in March and although it smelled divine I WNB!! It was horrible! It was gloopy and totally blocked my pores, so much so that it made my face look dirty! It also dried my skin out too. This had no beauty effect whatsoever! :mad:

I have UU's

UU- L'Occitane Divine Cream 3ml - WNBA was slightly disappointed, was expecting more from this cream, it was ok, but nothing special. I didn'treally like the scent either.

Plus UU another Garnier Body Sachet, I have continued using because only had a few left, now down to 2.

Yes it was me! Thanks for letting me know. That will be getting added to the items to try list. I only have 2 mascaras left so I shouldn't have to wait too long :cool:.

Also my oldest product is now a UU. Issey Miyake perfume has finally gone. WIBA? I don't think so. For years this was my fav but I think I have now evolved past it or maybe sickened myself of it. Anyway I look at it now it just doesn't do it for me anymore.

I am not sure what my "new" oldest product is now :think:.

I've had a Decleor day

I used the Clay and Herbal Mask (first go - I like it ), followed by Decleor Hydra Floral mask (from a beauty box) and then the rose oil. I'm trying to use face masks twice a week...

The rose oil is lovely though I think that I prefer the neroli oil overall. (It might be that my skin was in worse condition when I used the neroli so I saw more of an improvement though?) The reason I bought the rose version was that it was really, really reduced for a huge bottle, so I'm relieved that I like it :rotfl:

The mask is gorgeous isn't it. My skin looks instantly brighter when I remove it.

Here's a link to the Decleor site. The oils are skin type specific although the neroli is for all skin types. Perhaps your skin is not so sensitive that the rose would work as well? I've tried the neroli and ylang ylang - had the ylang ylang first and found that that worked better for me as I have normal/combination skin.
