I am pleased to announce my very first UU's and sadly found some more bits that were outdated and had to be tossed away.
My UU's for June 2013
Clarins eye makeup remover
Tossed Away:
Christian Dior eyeliner pencil (tossed away as it was 5 years old
That's my very first two since starting this challenge. I decided to reward myself at the end of one years time to a holiday of my dreams as long and put away a little bit each time I avoid buying makeup and using up my mass stash that I am currently hoarding (not for long though )0 -
A UU - Johnsons creamy shower wash, it was a freebie IN
and really liked it, lasted well and very moisturising. Not sure how much it is though.
A INs - Original Source Tea Tree shower gel, bought with the 25& off coupon in Boots, so only cost about 60p :rotfl:so that's why I bought it.
OH really likes it but have now decanted it into a handwash container with a pump to make it last longer as I'm sure he uses about an inch each time he has a shower :mad:
I see the No7 BB glitch is back. May have trouble avoiding it this time around...:oLife is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
Take time but don't waste time0 -
I have another UU:
27. Boots cucumber facial wipes. WBA, cheap and do the job, but not needed for a while thanks to last month's Elemis purchases.
Finally tacked my make-up stash and have sorted out 8 GAs of items I definitely won't use (unwanted GWPs and presents) and 6 TAs (mostly cracked compacts of bronzers/shadows where I had hit pan, but a couple of gone off nail polishes etc).
Feeling slightly sick as I discovered 17 various new mascaras during my sort out, and about 20 unopened lip glosses :eek: mostly top end stuff (Benefit, Clinique, Lancome) so i dread to think how much money i have wasted on this little lot. I only wear a little mascara on work days (rarely at weekends) and haven't worn lipgloss for a while, so it may be some time before I graduate in these areas... Going to have to start caking the stuff on :rotfl:MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -
2 UU:
Garnier minerals roll on deodorant - I already have another couple of bottles
1ml Avon Far Away perfume sample - an OK scent, but not for me0 -
UU
tub of cotton buds - already replaced at the weekendNo more buying toiletries0 -
told OH I wanted to watch the cat programme tonight and was taping it as flower club night,came home early hoping to talk but he is watching the cat prog so am stuck in the kitchen as want to see from beginning:mad:0
-
A few more UU here L'Occitane cherry blossom handcream
I love this but def need an offer efore I buy, this was a free one through:money:
Garnier moisture match blue and pink UU, trying to decide which of teh 3 to invest in, skin is too dry at the moment.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 -
I have been sneaky and a little bit naughty...
I needed some new mascara and a new moisturiser, and my best friend told me about a special offer in some magazines so I bought 2 x £1 copies of a magazine to get 2 mascaras (I was only going to get one but it was so hard to find I got all hoardy and bought a second!) and I had a voucher for the new Seventeen mascara for just £2 in Boots, so I thought it would be a good idea in case the other one is rubbish.
I also picked up a summery lip gloss for £1 in a magazine as it looked nice and summery and I need one for the summer, and some post moisturiser with another as I am running out and thought it could be a cheap way or getting new stuff if it is any good (not really).
So 4 INs it is then!Please call me 'Pickle'
No More Buying Books: ???
No More Buying DVDs: ???
NMB Toiletries ??? and I've gone back for my Masters at the University of Use Ups!

Well I have to confess - after seeing so many people posting about all the treat boxes that are going, I caved and decided to try one out! Have to say, I'm pretty impressed with it, it has come in a really lovely box, with all the products tied up in a lovely bundle...
I won't list the INS, but there are a couple of products I am running low on, so it has covered the cost. Unfortunately (spoiler alert!!!) it came with some products for curly hair, and my hair is straight, so I don't know what to do with them!
I'm definitely going to buy a few more - I want to make some home made toiletries for Christmas presents, and the boxes will be perfect for packaging them up! Oh, and I get some nice toiletries too...
That's a grand total of 6 INS!0
