No buying unnecessary toiletries February 2014

Upsy_Staffordshire

That's terrible Asset and I totally agree with the advice the others have given, I can't believe they are suggesting that you buy THEM drinks when you are the one without a job!

I've got another 3 UUs to report today :j

L'Occitane 5 Essential Oils Conditioner sachet: it made my hair nice and soft but I will stay using my Herbal Essences conditioner because I prefer the smell.

Grace Cole Fig and Vanilla Bath Fizz: I persuaded DH to try one last night in his bath and he said it was rubbish, fizzing a bit as he put it under the tap but that it disappeared straight away and he couldn't smell any fragrance. I've got another 2 of these from a gift set a friend got me so I suggested next time he uses the last 2 in one go to get rid of them. I've also got some foam bath that came with the same set so I'm hoping that might be a bit better.

Tesco Women's Shave Gel: great value and the brand I always buy.

Hoping for lots more UUs soon

Was in town this morning with OH and very nearly bought a bliss spa set in the sale. OH said 'go for it' but I walked away :A

Another out for me this morning... MUA - Volume and lengthening mascara - nearly empty but starting to dry up so TA. But I just got some really bad news...I just went on their website to try and replace it and they seem to have stopped doing it
My favourite mascara and it was only £3!

Another two OUTs to add...

28 - Lush sugar scub - TA came in a gift box and I've used it before. Too scrubby and smells like washing up liquid.
29 - L'Occitane divine cream sample. Lovely. Smells all herby.

I have a uu

Elemis Skin Nourishing Milk Bath - 400ml, I love the smell of this and it makes the water nice and soft but it is almost £40 a bottle, all of mine were gwp (I have several more) and I would never pay that for bath milk. It can be used as a moisturiser too which makes it better value but still a crazy price.

I annoyingly found a 125ml bottle of this tucked away under the bathroom basin with about 0.5ml left in it. Must chuck it into my bath next time I have one. I think this was the last one of these that I had and like you always got them as GWP. I think that once upon a time (the time when I was a pure QVC addict and had not experienced unemployment) I did buy this product although remember getting it from the Bay. I'd never buy a full size now though. Have started using one of the Rose and Jasmine ones and unlike someone else on the forum who said it smelt vile I quite like it.

Not that I'm enabling but timetospa still have quite a lot of the Elemis bath products on sale albeit small sizes but worth it if you travel or just want to sample a new one. Those naughty people have sent me a code for my birthday. I'll gladly pass it on if anyone wants it to see if it works for anyone else. The discount is £10.00 off on a spend of £50.00. I'm trying not to use it myself.

Be sure to let us know how you get on with the bubble bath. I was given a Grace Cole gift set containing shower gel and body lotion for Christmas. I think it was the Nectarine one from memory.

Wow you do sound cured. Now to make doubly sure go into your Email Trash and delete it from there too. Go on, I dare you!! My Birchbox subscription has now expired. I've told Emma that I'm not subscribing to anymore unless there is an offer like last time.

Or watching paint dry!

I know people have posted in similar terms but you should try and ignore the insensibilities of your ex-colleagues - they don't sound as if they justify your time. Refocus yourself on your job search instead.

Good luck hon. x
