No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in April

Gardening today, so long hot bath and 1 UU
S&G Calm One Calm All 500ml, bubbles nicely, MBA if on very special offer. Replaced it with a huge Sanex one.The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. (Abraham Lincoln)0 -
Few UU's to kick the month off:
1. Anatomicals body scrub- WNBA, was a Glossybox item and was a gel with the tiniest scrubby bits in. Useless.
2-5. Sachets of tresemme and pantene shampoo and conditioner- WNBA, didn't feel much difference really.
Aim to continue working down the sachet stack this month. Have a spluttering S&G face scrub that I'm using as a body scrub so that should go this week. I'm also trying to use up or rehome all the things I have received in glossyboxes over the last 18 months- quite a few bits that might make ebay.
No IN's so far although GB is due soon.April £5 a day challenge- £15.05/£1500 -
A couple more UUs from me, I've been playing around and trying out various make-up, the first one has been running out for a while but it's only now I've realised how much the mascara clumps, plus it's nearing the end of it, had two Lancôme ones on the go so will continue to use the other one which is my favourite (Doll Eyes).
Garnier Eye roll on 15ml Shade 02 - WBA, made a good eye primer, might buy a shade lighter next time though if I can get it.
Lancôme Precious Cells 6.5ml Black - WMBA, prefer Doll Eyes to this one but it's not a bad mascara by any means.No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2023

Didnt get to it the other day but now have used B4 colour remover (removal of semi that went far to dark), nice and easy mid champagne colour to cover the ginger tinge I was left with and to cover grey! more grey than I remembered:eek:
Painted toe nails avon hot pink, finger nails are awful so they have been treated to a coat of OPI nail envy to try and give them a boost
1TA rimmel nail varnish the pink part of the french manicure set, lost the white bottle and couldnt get on with it - maybe cause nails are so bad
Bath night tonight - no predicted UUs but who knows;)No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries: July stash 72/0 INS/2 UU/0 TA0 -
Hi ladies! :wave:
I have 3 ins on the Boots 3 for 2 offer: 1 eyeshadow, 1 lipgloss and 1 blusher, all desperately needed.
I also bought some replacement electric toothbrush heads, but I'm not sure that they count as toiletries, but they are associated paraphenalia.
So 3 ins, and if I get round to using that face mask later, one out.
Happy Sunday, ladies!Please call me 'Pickle'

Hi
I have a UU and GA to report
Dove Nourishing Oil Shampoo - A nice creamy shampoo that lathered up a lot. Seemed to work quite well, OH liked it too. WBA
S&G Mist You Madly Body Spray - I went out last night and ended up giving my mostly used bottle of this to my friend as she said she loved the smell. MBA - have 3 left in the stash, I know what I'll be giving her for her birthday
I also have 3 INs to report
S&G Sugar Crush Scrub, S&G Butter Yourself Body Butter, S&G Hand Maid.September Grocery Challenge £0/£2250 -
Good afternoon ladies!
Some UU:
1. Sensodyne Pronamel Extra Freshness 75ml - WBA
2. Liz Earle Gentle Face Exfoliator - WBA, definately see results when using this
3. Kerastase Cristaliste Bain Cristal Shampoo 250ml - WBA, this shampoo really works for my fine hair
4. Bioderma Hydrabio Serum 40ml - WNBA, was nice enough whilst it lasted but I actually prefer something like the Liz Earle toner prior to moisturising
5. Vaseline Rose & Almond Oil 20g - WBA, HG... love this stuff!
& A few more almost finished, coming up shortly! So nice to be coming close-ish to graduating!

Congratulations! We will all be here to see you receive your certificate and throw your mortar board up in the air! :j :rotfl:
As for me...one more UU: Tresemme Colour Thrive Blonde Shampoo (500ml). WIBA? Another one from the stash has been deployed and is ready for action. This stuff works well on my hair and is certainly more reasonably priced than Kerastase! :eek:Please call me 'Pickle'
