No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in April

maddiemay

AND sorry about your fall, hope you are not to sore after it.

ROGUEY if you have an anti-histamine tablet around, this should help calm things down, assuming you have no contras to taking them.

Welcome back SCRAPPIE and good luck in the new job.

Evening everyone and back in for another month. After 3 months on the thread I have now done my full and final list! it includes everything from the stash. (except make up as i dont have a stash:-)

I had done a list in January but then kept finding more things! I have sat down and looked at it and IF i was to buy no more creams/lotions/wash products for the next 3 years then my stash will be gone:-) that means no presents/gifts either! which to be quite honest is just not gonna happen LOL I shower daily and moisturise twice a day!!! and for some unknown reason I cant bear to give anything away:mad: so with over 50 shower gels and 30 bars of soap I'm of to have a soak in the bath:-) and a facepack is much needed!

So to a clean, beautiful and pampering few years ahead here is my first UU for April:)

UU sanctuary foaming soak - WNBA nice smell and ok but nothing special

UU - Garnier firming face mask WNBA think this was a free sample.

Back to work tomorrow so I'm going to put some foot and hand cream on and some cotton socks and gloves and have a real pamper night!

have a good week everyone :beer:

I'm back in for this month

supersaver1000

First UU ever.🎉60ml Bodyshop Satsuma Body Lotion. DD gave it to me when she was fed up of it. WBA surprised myself. Apart from being virtually impossible to get out of the tiny bottle, the fragrance has really grown on me and it goes on well and absorbs beautifully. Gonna have to use up my years worth of other stash before I can buy more though. Shame 😔

Thank you all so much for your good wishes, I was extremely lucky and I'm not in pain.
I hit my shoulder on the edge of the door but at a damage limiting angle - an inch to the right and I would have got my collarbone.
My knee is slightly sore also, everything else is OK. I take quite strong painkillers for the arthritis, so I feel alright, really.
As I said, I was lucky. Phew.

My INs cheered me up.

2 x 15ml Avon ANEW Rejuvenate Day Revitalising Cream. These were £2 each, as opposed to £7 normally. An SPF of 25. Great for summer, will keep them for then - have creams with SPFs of 15 and 20 to use up first.

Stashed for December - Cranberry and Cinnamon Shower Gel. Gorgeously Christmassy. 400 ml was £1.50, I think.

Avon's best selling Advance Techniques Mirror Shine Spray for conditioning hair.
Avon Footworks Beautiful Heel Softening Cream
Skin so Soft Fast Hydration Moisturising Gel.
All were at good prices.

A quick flick through the new brochure shows me that, hallelujah, they have put a detangler in the range. It's on a 5 for £5 offer page. Hmm.

Shop early for Christmas, possibly.... Or DGD's 12th birthday.

A few INS to report. I have a miniature shampoo, shower gel and body lotion and soap from a hotel stay over the weekend (the bottles are a perfect travel size, so had to)

Also bought some supercream from the bad place. It's a scalp treatment, which I knew I needed, so quite happy with that!

Morning Ladies.

I have a uu

Oilatum Natural Repair Day Cream - WBA, this is a nice cream to use in winter for me (combination skin) or all year round if you have dry skin, no magic claims to it just moisturising. I will be moving onto a tin of Steamcream which I got in the LIB advent calendar, I am looking forward to trying this out.

I have been trying to use up a bottle of No7 Instant Radiance balm and had been using it after moisturising and before foundation but today I mixed in one pump with my Bourjois foundation and the finish is lovely, I have powdered where I need it and left cheeks glowy.

My eye makeup today is MUA primer, Max Factor Earth Spirits eyeshadow in Pale Pebble from lashes to brow (this is a good dupe for my beloved Estee Lauder Ivory Slipper) and MF Earth Spirits Burnt Bark at the outer corner (a dupe for MAC Satin Taupe) and No7 Lash Adapt mascara. Lips when I go out will be the blessed Clinique Superbalm in currant which i will be using for the rest of my life.

A couple of UUs already this month:
- sachet of L'Occitane's Fleurs Merveilleuses perfume - nice and fragrant but a bit too 'old ladyish' for me.
- Body Shop Tea Tree facial moisture gel - I've had this since FOREVER (I'm talking 10-12 years plus), have been using it a lot lately but don't think it works anymore, plus the gel had gone a funny snot green colour. I picked up a tip on Superscrimpers that you can make your hallway smell nice by rubbing tea tree on the radiator, so I did that with the remainder of the bottle this morning. We'll see what it smells like tonight! No biggie anyway as I have plenty of other tea tree products in the stash.

A good friend of mine is going travelling in a few months, so I'm putting together a box of mini travel sized products (from my stash) that she can take with her. Hopefully they'll be useful

Hope you feel better soon mcculloch!

In other news, got the result of my big January exam this morning - I passed this time! :j So relieved after the mess I made of it last time round. Now on to the next exam in July...

Luxbox has finally arrived (March Edition), so I have 6 IN's to declare. I won't post what is in the box as I would hate to ruin the surprise for anyone else. I like it.
