No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in April

Just committed to buy 2 l'oreal sulfate free shampoos on a Facebook swap/selling page. That will be 2 ins as of tomorrow.
Must pick up more hay fever tabs tomorrow - hope I can resist temptation when I'm in that area!0 -
It's still snowing here!!!
UU: Balea Apricot Scrub. WBA, cheaper than the St. Ives and it's the same smell and texture. It goes on sale at the drug store and has bonus points attached, so win/win.
TA
Rimmel Lipstick in the purple tube. It's just too dark and purplish for me now. I guess what they say about going lighter as you get older is true. I held onto it for too long
Kalaya Eye Serum. Can not ge past the stench of this product. I tried and tried but just yuck.
I've been good and managed to avoid the Lancome GWP that is on this month. I'm hoping I don't fail on the last day.0 -
Morning
Have a uu
Botanics colour conditioner - this is the one which comes with the hair colour and I am not sure whether you can buy it separately, it is nice enough but do any of these actually preserve your colour - I doubt it.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Good morning
Its a lovely sunny (but windy) day in Cumbria - a rare event!
Have painted my nails with Rimmel green with envy topped with Crows Toes - Absolom.
A UU mouthwash from DH overnight bag to declare and hes finally learning the etiquette and begrudgingly added £1 to the sealed pot.No more buying toiletries0 -
Good morning ladies!
Exam over so now back to my toiletry obsession
UU:
1. Clarins Hand & Nail Cream 100ml - WNBA, was okay whilst it lasted but nothing super special
2. Body Shop Chocomania Shower Gel 250ml - Loved this and have probably gone through about 4-5 of them, so WNBA as time to try new stuff! Only 1 half used shower gel left in stash now, woooohooo

One in to declare: Boots No 17 Dolled Up mascara. This will replace my current mascara which seems to be drying up. Best of all it only cost me £2 with a coucher rather than the RRp of £6.49 and I got double points. Oh yeah!0

Picked up two of the l'oreal sulfate free shampoos today - someone was offering them very cheap on a fb selling page, so I stocked up while cheap! This now means I have 7 bottles of shampoo :eek: 5 are half used as well. Think I've lost the point behind this thread :rotfl:
Also picked up 2x garner minerals roll on deodorant. Current bottle will run out soon, and I spotted these on offer today, so bought while cheap as well!
Got 4 or 5 things nearing their end, so I'm going to keep up using them so I can meet my target of more out than in this month. It's going to be a close one!0 -

You have to review everything you are sent - they just introduced this rule, it used to be 80% of what you get. Amazon offer you 2 items a month based on previous reviews; I've reviewed foot cream and lots of beauty products so a Scholl Pedi was a reasonable choice. It hasn't arrived yet, but a Jamie Oliver steamer I was offered at the same time has.
Next week all the products that nobody wanted from targeted lists are up for grabs by all Viners, and I'll be able to get another 2.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 -
Another UU: Clinique Take the Day off Eye Make-Up Remover.
WIBA? i prefer creamy eye make-up removers, to be honest, but it wasn't bad. I have a Clinique creamy one to use up, so i'll be onto that.Please call me 'Pickle'

Woops! Just realised one of the shampoos I picked up earlier is in fact a conditioner. That's fine though, I have just two bottles of conditioner. One's in my swimming bag, so i it's not bad if I have a back-up in the house!0
