No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries December 2013

ruby_eskimo

I have another UU to report this evening:

Lush Dream Cream - Bought this in the summer after I caught the sun one day and my skin started feeling itchy and hot. This is the best aftersun I've ever used as it really nourishes the skin as well as cooling it down. Will definitely buy again next summer. Now I'm on to my Vanilla Deelite.

Fiasco, great news about your job:j
Rosemary, that's very sad, my exs brother killed himself in April, then his wife left him and now the whole family are all in a bit of a strange place. Its very sad when someone has no one to turn to and chooses to end their life:(

Nothing much to report here, however I tidied my toiletries out yesterday in prep for making room for my Christmas pressies and sale purchases! Not sure I've made enough room but I've tried:) Im off to make my list now:money:

One GA: So? Sinful EDT. Got a couple of bottles in a Boots points glitch which came in really handy as a spare Xmas gift to a teenage girl after the church play. WIBA? No, got another bottle on my PP list. Pleasant enough smell but better suited to teenagers.

Other product on my PP list

NYC black nail polish. Had this for years, just bored of it now. Want to finish and to replace it with a longer lasting polish. Would appreciate any recs.

I like Rimmel's black cab as a nice basic black polish.

Have re-painted my nails with a couple of coats of Revlon Vixen and topped it with CG Lubu Heels.

Evening

I am currently resorting and getting rid off things

UU's/ TA's
Baby wipes WBA

Face wipes asda WBA

Travel wipes WNBA used these to clean things

3 sample pots of bronzer WNBA too strong a colour for me, I normally look like I have been tangoed. One pot had empties itself over my make up.

Smash box primer WNBA had this over a year and still not totally finished it. I hate the slimy feel it gives my skin

Benefit pore professional WNBA as above it seems to coat your skin with a film.

Elf eyeliner and shadow stick WNBA it drags when you apply it.

Meme me highlighter WNBA another beauty box item which I'm not a fan off

GS foundation WNBA about 10% left and the the colour won't suit me till the summer, so another product gone.

Elf waterproof eye liner WNBA dried up

Boujous eye shadow WNBA had atleast 6 years and it did not apply well.

Rimmel pallet WBA too old to keep

Hydrocortisone cream WBA out of date

Tiger balm WBA empty

Lush colour supplement WNBA out of date by over a year and I did not like it.

Shockwavesvhair mousse WNBA hate the way it makes my hair crunchy. There is about one application left

Frizz ease finishing Creme WNBA again only a tiny bit left and it's got to be atleast 5 years old

Argon oil hair treatment WNBA makes my hair greasy and there is so little left it is not worth keeping

2 x BS hemp moisture high balm WNBA yes I have thrown them, I don't like throwing stuff but it is a horrible product with a lovely solid layer across the product. Had a few years and am never going to finish them, I. Was using them as foot cream but I can still smell the product. It does not actually sink into the skin it just sits and smells vile.

I bath lily thing already replaced by another from stash

Maybelline nail polish WBa it gone thick

nK nail enamel in black WNBA again too thick to apply

Rimmel euphoria nail polish WBA again gone gloppy

Hi Sam


Where do you buy your tiger balm from. Just wondering where the cheapest place to buy it from was.

his_missus

Hi all,

Really enjoying my N0.7 goodies, yes, I have tried everything.

I suppose I'd better fess up to the INS from the box:

Lip gloss (not really a lip gloss person but I'll give it a whirl) mascara, cleansing lotion (more of a wipes girl as I'm lazy but tried it and it was quite nice) hand cream, dry skin cream, day cream, night cream (SIL swears by the protect & perfect stuff, here's hoping!) body wash and bath soak

No UUs to report as I've been trying out the above goodies

I only buy the red tiger balm and the cheapest place for me is ebay. I do pick it up in sainsburys but it is about £4.50 there.

Dreadful weather here, I hope that everyone is safe even if not dry.


Rosemary - sorry about your son's friend, I had a catch up call at the weekend with a friend several counties away, she too was distraught as a young extended family member aged 22 had also taken his own life, and as so often is the case, no-one had any inkling that he had been struggling.


1 little UU 15ml Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion. This was a HG for may years, used as a serum under an SPF moisturiser. It never stings, even when I have very sore skin. I have been using other products more recently, but have a full size ready for use.


I have a few splutterers, so may have a few UU before end of month or to kick off 2014.

Gaaaahh I've just spent the morning sorting through my make up - half a bag on it's way out and the rest fitting neatly into one drawer (for the first time!). I bought alot of it in 2009ish and have been forcing myself to use it up. I'm just tired of keeping stuff I no longer want - time to start afresh for 2014. The bits I've kept are newer and things I want/ things that have been hidden and need retesting.
I've also sorted my hair things into a box, and will start experimenting when I do my hair in the mornings and get rid of things that just don't work for me. No more keeping stuff I just don't want/doesn't suit me!
