1 UU: Avon skin so soft, I really like this as a summer holiday moisturiser. and have 2 more in the stash! Have replaced with a Soap and Glory body butter in a blue tube, so far so good.
Also a very NPI, I got the email last night with TBS offer in it - went to buy it and at the last minute realised what I was doing and deleted it. I really don't need anything at the moment and when I really thought about it I would only have bought 1 of the products individually - I think I may be becoming sensible! :j
Well done Tater that's the way to think especially re: TBS as these offers come around every week.
I bought a concealer last night from Tesco. I've used this one before and liked it so it is a good compromise though I would have preferred some Erase Paste. There was a BOGOF offer on F&F make up so Emma ended up with a new lipstick too.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

UU - Vaseline Aloe Fresh deo spray, had 6 cans of this at one time and just one more to go now. Nice smell and does a fair job. Have replaced it with a can of Nivea Pearl & Beauty which isn't that effective hence the reason for using it at this time of year.
Some ins also from my avon delivery
Nail polish in Tweed - very, very dark red, did my nails with this last night and they look really good, it would look nice with a glitter topcoat too. Avon have brought out a new range of glitter topcoats in various colours but I haven't tried one yet.
Supershock gel eyeliner in Golden Fawn - love this but it is now discontinued.
Far Away travel size spray (second one of these but I do love this perfume).
Thailand Lotus Flower face mask - this was free with some creative ordering.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Just 25 bodylotions more to go
This made me giggle so much!
I've only been dong this challenge for two weeks, and I may still be being a little extravagant with the products (body oil, just slipped on the hardwood floors) but omg I feel so smug about using things up.
I have had a quite serious think about how long my current products are going to last me, and I can see most of next year going by without substantial body lotion/oil/bath/shower gel/soap purchases.0 -
Another UU for me today. LE IBST. HG product although I have none left in stash now. Am down to a travel sized bottle of Elemis Apricot toner which I've decanted a third into my LE spritzer bottle. Let's see how long this lasts for. xBack for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

A Non Bought In (NBI) A 30 ml Redken Colour Extend Radiant 10 multi benefit treatment spray for coloured hair. Will now go and investigate the benefits on the website. Haven't coloured my hair for a while and grey bits are showing in the fringe and temples
There's a colour in the stash and unlike all the foam colours, I know it won't turn my mid brunette mop black. I always seem to dye my hair on a Sunday morning, so much so that it feels 'wrong' to do it at another time.
I was looking at Dawn French on the One Show this week and thinking that she had some very nice lowlights in. Hmm. They would have cost her a fortune, I'm sure, but I'd like to try something similar sometime. Amazon Vine offered me her new book free to review, so I've got that coming. Her first novel, A Tiny Bit Marvellous, was great.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
