No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in January 2013

ruby_eskimo

Another UU to report:

Crabtree and Evelyn Avocado Hand Treatment - WNBA, it was only a sample size and was a bit too much moisture for my hands. Still working through the GWP size of L'Occitane hand cream that came with Marie Clare ages ago.

Have an IN to declare as well;

Mac Studio Sculpt foundation in NC15. It's only a sample pot of it that I bought from a blog sale. I used to use this ages ago but the colour was wrong and I ended up selling it on. But from what I remember I liked the coverage and the staying power on my skin. As I am almost out of my Revlon Colorstay and my BB cream, I will be looking for a new foundation soon, and if I can get one that is suitable for day and night use rather than having to buy a separate one for each, then I'm on to a winner!

1 in to report - cheapy m0rrisons facial scrub

Have been using aloe vera facial products I got in a gift set. Cleanser/toner/day cream & night cream. Night cream is leaving me a shiny feeling - not sure I like this product.

Hello all! Was just wondering is it too late to join? I'm still new to MSE and only just heard about the challenges. I'm quite a hoarder when it comes to toiletries so would love to give a challenge a go, especially now as i really want to hold back on my unnecessary spending!

Great! I'm off shortly to make a list of everything i got, and may even make up some sets to gift off throughout the year Have to say my weakness is hair products but i'll resist. Will look through some more posts later to catch up too

One UU for me tonight, Tresemme Freeze Hold Hairspray - WBA but no need yet as two more in the stash, one big one and one handbag sized. HG hairspray for me, awesome hold - so potent it sometimes glues up the spray nozzle completely which can lead to painful spray in the eye moments so something to watch out for :rotfl:

Very pleased with myself for venturing to the gym on a Friday night, its been a horrid week in work and today was no different - why do people think its acceptable to adopt a tone in an email they wouldn't take to your face and more importantly why do that at all when you work in the same small building?! :mad: Over something pretty flipping insignificant :mad::mad: Its the petty stuff that really winds me up.... Anyway shall try not to dwell, their issue and not mine and all that, off out tonight, my friend's leaving do, I don't work with her but she is my friend... and there's wine involved.... therefore I am most definitely there! :beer:

Have a lovely weekend everyone, wish everyone was as nice as you lot! x

So, after counting my stash i have a grand sum of 151 items :O! This doesn't include the 15 bottles of baby shampoo/bath i bought for 50p each lol. However, after a good rummage i had about 10 TAs which i've had buried deep in my stock for a good couple of years! Should have a UU tomorrow so will get the partner to put 50p in the jar, if i can get him to haha. 10 down, 141 to go...!
