No buying unnecessary toiletries in September
Comments
-
Have uu's today:
2 sachets of Philosophy Microdelivery daily exfoliating wash. Lovely to use, very gentle and skin feels very soft. Used one yesterday and one today and wish I had some more.
Pantene Volume mousse - WBA, have replaced it with another Pantene mousse and that is the last one in the stash. No need to rush out and buy as these last for ages and I am thinking of having my hair in a shorter crop around Christmas time as I will have lost quite a bit of weight by then hopefully and when my face is a bit slimmer it really suits me.
Me & DH wanted to lose 10lb for our holiday at the beginning of October and I have lost 7 with 4 weeks to go. I have to be in the right frame of mind and then weight just falls off but I also put it on just as quickly.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

My day time HG perfume is DKNY Be Delicious as it's quite inoffensive to most people and fresh and light. I also have some Moschino Love, which smells exactly like D&G Light Blue but it's a bit too strong sometimes.
My Going-out perfume is Lolita Lempicka L, which smells like incense and chocolate and quite seductive really. Always get compliments when I wear this, but it's way too heavy to wear during the day. Oh and it lasts forever on the skin!
My Special Occasion perfume is Chanel Coco Mademoiselle which I would wear ALL the time if I could afford it!Emergency Fund - £8572.39 / £10,000 :: Mortgage OP 2025 - £LISA 24/25 - £3200 / £4000 :: NSD 2025 - 2 / 150 :: Books Read: 1 / 52 :: Decluttering - 4 / 1000Engaged 9th December 2010 :: Married 29th October 2015 :: Bought a House 13th January 20170 -

Hey ladies. Have some INS and UU to declare:-
After being all self righteous about not buying from QVC on Beauty Day I then went and ordered an OPI kit during the 7.00pm hour. Naughty step here with come.

I have left out: hair stuff post washing, nail stuff, make up and lip balms. I may add these in at some point!
My current obsession is face washes. Before this, it was body moisturisers. Before that, it was shower gels.
