No buying unnecessary toiletries February 2014

Babafette

Thanks for the new thread KT2802 and a warm welcome to gothrockchic1 and nillionaire. I'm in again for February and will soon be posting a new Project Pan list.

I even found a sachet of Oil of Ulay - it's been called Olay for a long time so dread to think how old this is!

This is slightly freaky. I found an old make up bag full of sachets this week and amongst those sachets was........an Oil of Ulay shower cream sample! :rotfl:

I WILL not buy any unnecessary toiletries this month.
First UU of the month: dove deodorant aerosol. I personally think sticks or roll ons are more effective, but the aerosols are often on offer in boots so work out cheaper. However, I think they don't last as long as the sticks or roll ons so probably not as cost effective as I think.
Replaced with the final deodorant in my stash: another dove aerosol, but this one is anti-white marks.

Wishing everyone lots of luck this month!

I'm back again for this month
Hoping to have lots of UU as there's plenty of stuff spluttering but I said that last month too ..

Thanks KT2802 for getting us started. I am obviously in again.

KT2802 - I really hope you succeed in your no buying makeup this month, I truly understand how hard you will find it, I too will be not be buying any so I am here to support you. You can do it.

I will post my PP list later on.

I was hoping not to buy any make up this month, but there is a Laura Geller TSV on the 9th and it looks so tempting...

Both for 8 hour cream, which I know has been recommended by a few people (even though my skin hated it!)

Right, ready to go and on a mission to use stuff up and NOT buy!

My inventory came to 815 items, I still have some to add, and I also have a huge MUA order which arrived today but I ordered about 2 weeks ago so I'm not counting them as Feb ins!

I've ordered a pretty journal in which I'm going to list my stuff by type when it comes and work my way through it from there

Welcome to the thread sjprmc01. Don't worry, my stash inventory is huge too and I don't even list make up or nail polish.

That set does look lovely. I have never tried Laura Geller though so am not too tempted. I know someone on here has mentioned using the spackle primer though so they might be particularly interested

I use her balance and brighten powder which is around £29 so if this kit is a tenner more then I shall be seriously tempted.

Yeah that would be a good deal for you then.

I am thinking about making a stash list with all my make up on it. I have one for all my other toiletries. Could help me with the no buying make up when I see exactly how much I have written down :eek:

Someone mentioned earlier about writing it in a notebook, quite like this idea.

First outs of the month:

Toothbrush - replaced with new.

Tresseme 60 second treatment - WMBA this was OK and I got 3 uses from the tube but I prefer macadamia.

Lancome Bifacial - WMBA - this is a good make up remover but I think the garnier one is almost as good at a fraction of the cost. One more left in stash but would only buy again as part of a great offer.
