No More Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in July 2013

A few UU's

Boots mango body butter WBA I liked the smell and it absorbed easily into my skin
Clarins extra firming body cream 30ml WBA I liked this, probably a little rich for summer but it has made a great hand cream, have another in stash
2 x bath salts PB WNBA did not do a lot.
Sachet of hand cream WNBA
Santos sack bubble bar WBA
Ultrabland face cleanser WBA HG a 100g pot lasts me just over a year. I use it to take of eye make up and it makes easy work of water proof mascara.
BS apple shower gel WBA lovely fresh scent and makes a great bubble bath
Revlon blusher WNBA
Bm beauty mineral bronzer in summer warmth WNBA I look like I have been tangoed with this product
Aussie 3 min miracle conditioner sample WNBA the samples are not enough to try but it did not do alot for my hair

IN's
Ultrabland face cleanser, I went into lush and only came out with one item which is unheard of in my world. I still have a lot to use up but my stash is definitely coming down.

I have 6 parcel due In the next few weeks 2 orders one from yves rocher as they had a good deal on, one from FP love these products and there was a sale on. 2 from purchases from another forum. A parcel from beauty bible (3rd time) and birchbox as my card had expired.

UU'S-
Balance me shower gel- WNBA, cant justify £9 (i think) for a shower gel but it was a nice smelling mag freebie.
Ememis monoi frangipani melt- lovely body oil. Undecided whether I'd repurchase. Definetly a luxury item and not an everyday one.

Someone asked for the link to the swaps so here it is:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/142765415792857/

It's a secret facebook group though.

My ebay person has payed so two more OUTs to report:

23 - Clinique mattifier stuff - sold
24 - ELF bronzer sheets added as a freebie

An IN but free! Boots under eye cream to test.
Also some shampoo freebies from Tesco glitch - well they are paying me to buy them so why not! :T

I'd forgotten She magazine. I used to love it.

TA - L'Oreal Demaq Expert elixir concentrate makeup remover. Would I buy again? No. I actually thought I had conjuncitvitis the morning after using this - it left such a cloudy residue. Despite cleaning it off thoroughly with a hot cloth.

UU - Yves Rocher Lifting Bio Anti-wrinkle Night Care. WBA. Nice all round and I like Yves Rocher's Culture Bio range.

In - unknown rich moisuriser. Got it from a research company to test. Hoping it is an Estee Lauder as it smells a bit like Bronze Goddess!
In - Estee Lauder face and body camouflage makeup. Needed to cover leg veins!

Yes, me too! Anything that has the remote possibility of making me feel more sticky at the moment is out, I'm relying on whatever I'm showering with at the moment to provide some moisturisation. That said, I have been using some aloe vera gel as I've burnt a little around my shoulders and the top of my back when it was overcast and windy and I just didn't realise That's nice and cooling and gets applied just before bed

I know it would just be adding to your stash, but I quite like BS body mist. It is quite scented, so the smell can build up! Otherwise I have Simple facial moisturising spray, which is very nice but obviously gets used up quickly if you use it on your body, so I just use it on the bits that show!

UU Body shop hemp hand protector -WMBA if on a good glitch

awful smell and way to heavy to use as a normal hand cream but great for nighttime use or after a heavy days gardening or housework.

UU

Stila Tinted Moisturiser, Medium, 50ml - WBA, however, i don't even know if you can still get it here! As this was one of the ones from Poundland! Lovely stuff though!

A little off topic, but I remember there are a few Glasgow ladies on this forum - I'm off to visit my friend this weekend, and we want to go for some cheesy dancing! (Yeah, we're that cool :cool:) neither of us knows Glasgow really well, so I'm wondering if anyone knows anywhere? She only knows 'normal' clubs, I really ought to disown her :rotfl:

Hi everyone!

I have maintained my normal daily moisturising, though in this heat I have to say that I do have rather a sheen by the time I've walked to catch my train to work, even at 7am - eeuw!

UU:

20. Sanctuary Luxury Bath Float 75ml - WBA if I ever wanted a bubble bath, smells good and lathers well, though this was repurposed as shower gel for my gym wash bag.
