No Buying Unneccecary Toiletries in May 2013

**tracey**

A couple of UU's for me

S&G Clean on me 500ml - wnba, I quite like this but I have at least one more in the stash.

Molton Brown pink pepper shower gel - wnba, I love the smell of this but it is too expensive.

A small UU sample sachet Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm. Will not buy as a) I cannot be bothered with a cleanser that you have to keep away from eyes and lips (it is reported that it stings badly) and b) it immediately made the two hyper sensitive patches on my face red and itchy. Even more pleased that I resisted the Elemis TSV now.:D

Dolly, would you like to be my penpal? Something nice through the post...:)

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Have a couple of uu that I forgot to mention earlier

both are sample sachets which I don't usually count but as things are slow I am going to

Omorovicza Black Cleansing mud (or balm) this is a black balm which turns into an oil - nice but hard to tell from a sachet whether I like it enough to buy, the sachet was 2ml and did 3 uses so long lasting but no doubt expensive.

Omorovicza plumping moisturiser - I can't remember the exact name as it was on the strip I tore off - wnba as it was too rich for me and didn't seem to plump my fine lines as it said.

My ins have arrived:o

YSL Paris EDT - 50ml
Origins Clear Improvement mask
L'occitane shea collection - mini shampoo, mini conditioner, mini hand cream, mini verbena shea shower gel, full size hand and body wash.

The Paris was a gift but there are no excuses for the other items.

Its a shock isn't it, do you think it will be enough of a shock to stop you buying?

I have a similar amount of items in my stash and they are mainly shower gel and body lotion/butter etc, I have enough for a very, very long time and yet I still add to it and it just makes me feel stressed. I have enough deodorant, shampoo and conditioner to make it through most of the year and then those areas will be under control.

Thank you everyone.

It is a shock but I am still adding and still love the buzz of a parcel arriving and the process of unpacking it. I do question myself why I need anymore. I down to 38 bubble bars, I still feel I don't have enough even the staff in my local lush think I have too much.
I not too bad on make up and hair care. But if it smell nice I will buy it.
I am going to have a serious getting rid of session. I am going to do a parcel of samples/ beauty box stuff for someone at work. I am also going to put a few more items on ebay. I want to raise £300, I am at £80 so far. I did list last weekend (even a few precious items) but needs must.

Just a thought - but would it work if someone in your house packed up some of your stash (without you knowing) and posted it to you? Im not trying to take the mick, Im thinking of the parcel anticipationy type of thing....

Where is tokkiandoliver - maybe its time for a May Madness type of secret santa !!

Thank you, my sister actually suggested the same thing. I am going cold turkey I have convinced myself I do not need anything and am now banned from buying anything else till August. The exception being glossy box and any very limited edition products from lush (don't think there will be any though).
I am going to put away the two LIB boxes which I am currently waiting for, for when I want something new.

Anyway:

UU's
Burt bees supershine conditioner (sample size) WNBA not a great fan, does not do alot for my hair.
Skinetica (100ml) WNBA quite liked it but found it drying.
Treatment wax hair conditioner. WNBA, I have another in my stash amd I think this one has been on the go for 2 years.

TA's
17 items from hair care to make up - to friend at work

I am going to get rid of sachets, a quick UU but I don't take them on holiday and I don't normally think that there is enough to sample to know whether you like the product or not.

A couple of outs:

UU REN neroli and grapefruit body lotion 100ml - WNBA, not convinced by the scent and found it soooo hard to get out if the bottle. Had to abandon it with a bit remaining in the end

TA TBS passion fruit body butter 50ml - this was my replacement for the REN but must have gone off as smelled a bit odd

2 sachets of Prevage serum by Elizabeth Arden. I really liked the serum and I have used it before however I can't justify the price tag of £100 for a face serum ��it's outrageous!

Especially when I am trying to pay off C/C and start some savings... It's ludicrous!! Lovely to try a couple of sachets though

Oh forgot to log my In's - 4 facial serum tubes to test!

Which is great news as I've run out of serum.

Missed the free listings on eBay at the weekend as I was working and exhausted once home... Boo me

I think the Lush witch hunt got a bit hard for her to take seeing as she worked there.
