No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries October 2013

Used up my sample tube of Elasticiser, sniff I love this, but won't be able to afford to replace it for a long time!

Thank you Sundaysgirl, how is everything with you?

Worrying times but he's on the mend, thanks. It was all just such a shock, really makes you stop and think, you know?

I'm not trying to discourage you all from buying Lush but it's made me think twice.

I was already boycotting them over the horse-racing thing and them forcing their own views down people's throats!

I was beginning to wane but I won't be going in there for a long while yet, I hate hypocrites! :mad:

Announcing more ins from a shopping trip to a nearby city with DD, my teenage sister and her friend.

Soap & Glory lip crayon in plum jam - No excuse I wanted to try it (this was on a 3 for 2 offer so my sister and her friend also chose a product each.)

Despite all the controversy I also added to my Lush stash with 6 more bath bombs - anything fizzy, coloured and with sparkles is always a winner with my 8 year old.

Oh gosh, there's always lots of Lush debates on this forum! It's very hard to find a company that starts ethical, and remains ethical really, but we do have to take both sides with a pinch of salt. I definitely agree with Oxford Owl, any job has horror stories to accompany it, although I did find some of the blog quite surprising if it's really true!

IMO Lush is fine for the odd treat but my preference is not to shop there very often. I've had two bad reactions to their products, and just don't want to risk more.

Glad to hear this Sundaysgirl. I know what you mean. My bf was hit by a car last week when he was cycling over to see me. Spent the night at A & E, had a nasty concusion and head wound and a banged up knee. It certainly had a big impact on me! Thankfully he is doing well - but his bike is a write off.

Another UU from my project pan list. Elemis clear skin moisturiser. This was a GWP and really like it. Not sure if I can but WBA.

Also.....drumroll ....a very rare UU Clinique eye cream liner duo WBA but need to use the other 3 I have.

Sorry to hear how things are again Rosemary - pamper yourself at these times :grouphug:

Apologies Sundaysgirl, I had seen your post. I am so pleased that your OH is on the mend.
Fiasco, gosh... that must have been scary for you both.
I hadn't had my (pedal) trike long when I read of a mum - of - 5 killed on one on a busy roundabout, about 50 miles from me.
I ride on roads as a last resort. Regarding safety on the pavements for myself and others, virtually no road in our town is without wide grass verges for me to ride onto and the police turn a blind eye - I'm better off the roads.
On topic:-
A gift set of cleanser, toner and moisturiser has arrived for me to review.

No UUs yet this morning, but I did my October Empties post on my blog last night, so I've actually chucked away the bottles and tins from all the UUs listed here. I feel free! I have so much space in the corner of the bathroom!
