No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries August 2013

Hello ladies.
Have just returned from a weeks holiday in Norfolk, have managed to catch up with you busy lot.
Welcome newbies and hugs to anyone needing them.
Have a uu from my hols
Korres Wild Rose Day Cream - Nice enough and I would be happy to use again but wouldn't go out of my way to get it.
Also another uu from before I went
Omorovicza Deep Cleansing Mask - This is a £57 face mask, I bought it using a discount code and doubt I would stretch to £57 for it, however it is very, very good. My skin is super clear since using it twice a week and it has also helped fade some scars. I will see how I get on and if I start to get congested areas again I may well buy again.
I was very good on holiday and only have one in of a locally made soap.
Some of you may remember a while back we were trying to breed from our dog, well the puppies arrived yesterday, so we are now grandparents :rotfl:not seen them yet but they are all well but their mum is not taking to motherhood quite as well as hoped.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

BS Vitamin C daily moisturiser (with SPF30) - I quite like that this comes in a tube - 50ml is the same size as their other moisturisers, but because they come in big tubs, they take up a lot more space! Will look forward to trying it out.
The BS had a buy one get one half price offer on, so I also bought:
BS Seaweed Pore Perfector -I was a little concerned about my pores as well, so this won't go to waste!
I hope you like the Vit C moisturiser, let me know what the seaweed stuff is like, I have it on my 'buy later' listNo Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2023

maddiemay I thought of you in Boots today! You may already know this, but all Indeed Labs products are 1/3 off.
& thus, some Boots Ins:
1. Indeed Labs Eysilix Instant Eye Rescue
2. Super Facialist by Una Brennan Rose Hydrate Day Cream SPF 15 - thought I'd give this a try as I'm getting through my more expensive face moisturisers far too quickly. This was also 1/3 off.

Congrats on the pups dolly84!
Hope everyone's having a good weekend. Been to try "my" wedding dress on today for the first time today, very exciting but an expensive day as a result as it was time to cough up the 2nd half of the cost! Has made me even more determined that there will be no further ins this month!
UU:
19. L'Occitane Radiance & Colour Care hair mask 6ml - WNBA as though this left my hair looking, feeling and smelling good, I don't yet colour my hair. I'm delaying this for as long as possible!
20. Lancôme Bi-Facil eye makeup remover 30ml - WMBA but no need for a while as have others in the stash, very effective though it did leave a slight greasy residue, despite its claims. I'm yet to find one which doesn't yet works though, so didn't bother me too much.
And I have a few splutterers so more to report soon I reckon!MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -
Another few UU's
Marzibain bubble bar WBA
So white bath ballistic WBA0 -
Loccitane verbana face cream 20ml - wnba. Too expensive and my face didn't love it.
Tigi curls conditioner 750ml -wmba, lovely smell.
Bs rainforest shampoo - 400ml - wmba.
Sanctuary collagen face mask. 15ml. Wnba, made my face a bit red. Reckon it had gone off though so that might have been it!

Will try to remember. Have tried on the moisturiser this morning, and think it's a little greasy looking, but think I might have applied it a little thick.
Also, was it you who asked me to let you know how the vit c microdermabrasion scrub worked out? I've been using it for 6 weeks now and it's OK - has really helped my dry skin, but I have really bad pores just now, and I'm not ruling out that it's related! I'd probably buy it again but not at full price...0 -

finally sold 2 goodie bags on fleabay.........not enough to retire on:rotfl:plus 2 bits of fabric was amazed some stained glass windows with 200 views and 10 watchers did not sell tho!
anyway got rid of two make up purses and a pile of toiletries that were not good for me so its a start:)0 -
On a roll at the moment, more UU and no IN:
1. Bomb Cosmetics Lazy Lavender Brulee - I wouldn't have bought a lavender fragranced product, this was a gift, but it was actually really nice - left my skin feeling very moisturised. You were meant to put it in the bath and let some of it dissolve and then take it out to reuse upto five times, I wasn't sure about that idea so I tried to break some off without any joy so just used the whole lot! It wasn't any bigger than the big Lush bath ballistics so I thought what the heck!! Only downside was the little lavender buds that got all over me, cue a quick shower afterwards to make sure they were all gone. WMBA - I generally really like their products.
2. Elemis Pro-Radiance Flash Balm - WBA - down to one more small tube in stash so need to get some more or try something different
3. Sure Cotton Ultra Dry roll on deo - WBA - HG - already replaced
4. Jean Paul Gaultier Classique EDP - Quite a triumph indeed this one as it was a 100ml bottle and I've considered it a splutterer for months now but its just kept on going!! With it being such a strong fragrance you can't even overspray or it'd be total overkill. WBA as its iconic but need a break for a while as I've been wearing it most days to finish it off.
Was all set to treat myself to the LIB Editors box as had the email this morning and really liked the look of the contents, free delivery etc but out of stock!! Saved from myself0
