No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in Feb

SuiDreams

One more UU that I forgot to declare

The Body Shop Earth Lovers Water Melon & Eucalyptus 250ml - i know a lot of you don't like this but I really do so WBA

UU in this mornings bath

750ml TBS grapefruit shower gel WBA this is my current favourite. Have decanted my last ones into the dispenser. Will have to repurchase at some point as my grapefruit butter mountain far outweighs the shower gel remaining.

Planned purchases for the weekend are mouthwash, cotton wool, my daughters toothpaste - hopefully nothing else will fall into my basket. I have a voucher left over from Christmas and money on my advantage card so intend to spend no cash.

No UUs to report. Just posting whilst I have the chance. Work was manic last week as the lovely lady I work with was off on sick leave with a bad back. Am so hoping she makes it in on Monday as she is planning to.

Was feeling weak willed this am when I saw the Laura Geller TSV but I really don't need any more blusher and eyeshadows. Mentioned it to MrM and he was not enthusing about the purchase so will have to look for some Spackle as this is all I really "need" at the moment. Or maybe I'll try wearing my make up on my skin without preparing my "canvas" first and see whether there is any detrimental effect! lol.

Have repainted my nails today and am wearing OPI Wooden Shoe Like to Know. Looks like milk chocolate.

Have a lovely weekend everyone. x

Wow, going a year without buying makeup is very impressive. I love makeup, I wasn't a girly girl as a child or teenager but I am making up for it now and can't resist the pretty colours and packaging. I have enough of some makeup items to last several years but still have my eye on the new MUA Undress Me Too pallette, (would have one already if I could find one in stock), I love my Heaven & Earth and Undressed Pallette but do not need any more neutrals.

Have a lovely weekend everyone, we are expecting a bit of snow today.

Yep 1 year 2 months and 23 days to be exact! I am now down to 3 foundations (1 daytime, 1 night time which will be gone in a couple of uses, and 1 in the stash), 1 loose powder, 1 pressed powder which is almost done and 1 in the stash and lots and lots of eye shadows and blushes and lip products!

Sounds like a great deal I really need new Make up brushes

I really like Ecotools brushes. I get mine from eBay, though, as they're much cheaper from there.

I also really like the Body Shop brushes.

Forgot to add a UU - Lush Dreamwash shower cream. WIBA? Probs not if Im honest - IM glad I tried it, but I dont think I like the clay type of shower things, they dont make me feel very clean....

A UU mini perfume - very irrestible Givenchy. A GA mini perfume - Ghost night? i think its that one. Didn't like it

Two INS tomorrow - neither paid for by me. Two Dior Nude blush lippies - Charnelle and Swan

I tried the £land purchased Andrew Collinge Purity conditioner this morning. When I was Googling to find out the RRP yesterday, I noticed it had quite low marks on review sites, so I was a bit hesitant.

My hair feels gorgeous - so soft and silky. I wouldn't say it had added much volume, so perhaps that accounts for a low review mark as it is supposed to do this.

The shampoo I used was one from a trial in January, it's a really good one. I'm going to use it until it's UU'ed, it's every bit as good as Elvive, which is what I normally use.

The conditioner also had a beautiful fragrance, the only offputting thing was the brown muddy colour. Not sure if this was the kaolin in it, I thought that kaolin was white, but perhaps not.
I just sniffed my hair and the lovely fragrance is still evident, which is unusual for a wash-out conditioner with me. So far, so good.

I was tempted by the LG, I am getting through my Smashbox Halo and understand that the new one with SPF has changed the colours. I have B n Brighten in Medium/Regular but it is too dark for Winter. The original Spackle was too drying for my skin so gave it away and have not tried any of the others. The B&B sits in the wrinkles on me unless I use my Bare Minerals Prime Time as does the Smashbox now, so it seems if I want the ease of a powder foundation the primer is a must for me:( Add to all of this my ultimate desire to try and buy as much "no animal testing" products as possible and my distance from major shopping centres, makes me think I might as well just go round with my head in a bag:rotfl:

Thanks for the recommendation l'll look at them as well.

My current powder brush isn't great and applies the powder really heavily, used my fantail brush instead, and got a much better look. Still want a better powder brush, but this will do in the meantime.

The Urban Decay Theodora palette is getting used every weekend now, and using up my older palettes during the week.
