No Buying Unneccesary Toiletries in June 2013

Hi All,
I've been mainly lurking not posting the last few weeks as life got in the way but I did manage to keep up-to-date in a fashion for May and I'm going to catch up on June so far in a min. I finished May all square on 14 IN and 14 UU - the Elemis GWP tipping the balance against reducing numbers but I've really enjoyed what I've used so far so I don't begrudge that.
The last couple of IN being L'Oreal Preference High Shine Conditioner x 2, came with hair colour, I've gone dark again after a couple of months as a redhead - just couldn't get an even colour without stripping my hair which I wasn't prepared to do - was nice for a change though. Last two UU were Tresemme Freeze Hold hairspray - was a small handbag size one, already replaced with a bigger bottle - HG. I also had Anastasia Line Erasing Serum - this was only a sachet but lasted ages as only needed a tiny amount, sadly though, no discernable benefit so WNBA, suspect it'd be hard to get hold of anyway so probably just as well.
Its definitely getting harder as the stash gets smaller to resist the urge to buy more! I've started this month with a few few splutterers for the first time in ages so that's promising, although it is my birthday month so might have some IN to offset, if I've been good!! We'll see . . .Must also update my stash list as I didn't do it last month and I'll get myself in a pickle and not know what I've got if I'm not careful!
Hope everyone is well - apologies for any birthdays/hugs/congrats or commiserations I've missed :beer:

Welcome Greenorchids
Welcome back seasidedreamer
I have a uu
Skin Wisdom Day Spa bath & body oil - Rose Geranium, I love the scent but this wasn't a dry oil so could only be used at night and still felt too oily, I did use it in the bath as an oil too but felt no difference. This has been in the stash for a long while and I am glad to see the back of it.
I was going to Tesco last night so I had a look for the Red mag, there were three copies on the shelf and all had had the freebie stolen:mad:, I managed to find one by chance hiding behind some other mags so I have an in, I wouldn't have bought it had it been at the regular price but £2 for a mag is fine, £4 is not, not for me anyway.
I had the same thing, went to Tesco last night thought oh great there's one left, only to discover the freebie had been stolen!!! I was :mad::mad::mad: especially as it's most likely on Ebay with all the other listings at extortionate pricing, so annoying. I've just started to use this out of the Elemis GWP that was recently on and I really like it too, going to watch out on Ebay for a full size at a decent price0 -

Back OT, I have a teeny UU:
6. No7 P&P intense serum, 5ml - probably WNBA, have used before and quite liked but this time I found it a bit heavy on my skin, didn't like the residue it seemed to leave behind and it even made me have a (rare, for me) break-out on my forehead. And I didn't notice any improvement in my skin either, albeit only used for short time given the size! Have they changed the formula?
I went to Tokyo for a few days and Kyoto for a few days. It was so nice, there's so much more left to explore too!
Couple more UU Lush snowfairy, one more bottle in the stash luckily:) and Right Guard Xtreme Invisible from a Buzz trial. WBA if I can find it as cant seem to find it in the shops.Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
