I am going to lush this weekend I have not splurged for over 9 months there and I am looking forwards to the Christmas items. I will not buy any shower gels. There will be a few bubble bars and several bath bombs there might be one small piece of soap (depending on if I like it).
Me too. So looking forward to it. I am definitely getting a new block of porridge as this has made my skin so silky smooth.evilsquid - I think a divorce is as good a reason as any for a treat.
Me too hon x
OK goes without say that I'm back in. A UU and a TA already:-
UU: Tube of Urban Vista (??) exfoliator. This came in a Glossy Box. Was a nice product but I have loads of Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator stashed so won't be purchasing this.
TA: No 7 lipstick which I've had forever and has now dried up. Don't know the colour as the sticker wore off a long time ago. Was a sort of nude/coral colour. No hard feelings about this one.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

Am I the only one who isn't good with argan oil? I found that when I use a product with it in I get little tiny spots where I've used it and I get super flakey too. Boo.

A few UU today
Woodland Escape Wild Fig bath fizzer
Timotei vivid colour shampoo
Wilko Woodland Escpe bath crystalsDebt 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 -
Another use up for me - Paul smith women perfume. This is my favourite perfume, though I've noticed I sneeze more when I use it. I had decided to take a break from it, and then my OH got me a bottle for my birthday. I didn't have the heart to tell him bless! I already have a going out perfume, so can't use it for that.0

Valm and Dolly - if (i know, i know, *when* :rotfl: ) i cave in to the Laura Mercier smoky eyes palette I'm blaming you two!
i have INs:
Bourjois nail polish remover - got 2 of these as was 2 for £7 in boots. had to TA my sephora one as there was that much nail polish dissolved in it my fingers started coming out bright purple and glittery :rotfl: i think these are just as good as the Sephora ones and they do smell nicer too! theres not quite as much of alcohol smell with these ones.
also an eyeko eyeliner that was free with glamour0 -
A UU (sort of) tidying up the bathroom and found a 3/4 used bottle of conditioner, decanted it into another 3/4 used bottle of conditionerLife 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'm in again. Ended last month slightly ahead in my UU to my IN ratio but still a long way from have a neat and tidy spare stash.0
