No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries August 2013

minicooper272

Starting the month with a UU - Benefit 'That Gal' face primer. Got this free with a magazine ages ago, but won't buy the full version. It was a little bit too pink for me, so always made me look like an oompa loompa. Think there are probably a few uses left, but I'm not fussy about it!

Thanks for starting off the thread KT, please can you say on the swaps bit to PM the admins for the FB group your email adress to get added...I found that seems to be the easiest way to add people without having to befriend everyone:)

First UU for me today BS Night Jasmine shower gel, I wasnt sure about this when I smelt the bottle but its really nice!

UU

Sanctuary Luxury Bath Float, 75ml - WNBA, contains Palm Oil but smells lovely
Simple Restoring Night Cream, 50ml - WBA, so creamy and very moisturising!

Has anyone else abandoned body moisturising in this hot weather? *blush*

Thanks for starting off the new thread for us KT2802!

I am definitely in again for another month. I had my best month on the challenge last month with 14 UU and no ins!! I have to buy shampoo (first time in a long time I have had to buy shampoo ) toner and face wipes this month but I am determined not to add to the stash.

Partly, half the time you need suncream instead and the rest its too bliming hot. Shame as its the one thing I've a few more than I should probably have.

You must have been reading my mind, I was thinking about this very subject earlier today:rotfl:

Cleanser- EH Moringa Balm (was C&P, but it started bringing me out in red blotches)
Toner - LE Instant Boost Skin Tonic
Exfoliating Toner - Clarins Gentle Brightening Toner.
Hydrating Boost - Indeed labs Hydraluron
Moisturiser - Elemis PRMC
Jury still out on other products.

I'm still trying to type up my stash list...it's taking me hours to go through everything!

Okayy, I have an idea - I would love to hear what everyone elses Holy Grail products are!

I don't stick to many products as I'm always buying new things to "try". However, I do have a couple which I love...

1) I'm prone to spots, so I love the Superdrug Tea Tree Spot Stick. I find this really helps with those lovely big red ones! I apply it again and again during the day and can really tell a difference by the end of the day.

2) Rimmel Hide the Blemish Consealer. I've used this for at least 10 years, I'm sure. I don't use foundation myself, but I find that this really does the trick in hiding any of those unsightly blemishes/spots.

3) Natural collection vanilla body spray. Not really sure why I keep buying this, but I think it's because it reminds me of when I was a young teenager? I fell in love with the stuff back then and it's just been a main-stay body spray for me.

Thanks for starting the new thread KT2802!

My HG's have changed a bit recently, some im still undecided on and others ive been dabbling with other that are starting to change my mind. there are ones im def sure on:

Make up remover - Nuxe rose one
Moisturiser - i love Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched face base but its SO expensive so i cant buy it that often.
Lash top coat - Anastasia. i dont know how i lived without this, it keeps any mascara firmly on my eyes and makes me not turn into a panda around midday.
Tinted moisturiser - laura mercier oil free, so quick and easy to use and pretty much foolproof!
Bobbi Brown corrector - the only things that the right shade of deathly pale/pink and can cover up my eye bags
