No buying unnecessary toiletries February 2014

VALM

Another UU from the PP List:-

Liz Earle Mascara. Had problems getting any product out of the tube this morning so looks like it has gone. Came as GWP with an order of the Essentials. WNBA. Nothing special.

Lush Lip Scrub
[STRIKE]Sure Deodorant roll on - feels very light
LE mascara[/STRIKE]
Aussie conditioner
Mark HIll Straightening Serum
[STRIKE]L'occitane eye roll on sachet (I opened this last night and it is soo runny. Really difficult to apply from a sachet!![/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Origins Plantscription Eye Cream 5ml [/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Burts Bees body lotion [/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Burts Bees foot cream [/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Elemis Gentle Rose Exfoliator - full sized - tube cut open[/STRIKE]

The remaining three products are probably at equal stages. Won't be finished by end of this month anyway.

I haven't yet read Gone Girl but it is next on my list to read! I was reading the thread and feeling worried that someone was going to mention what the ending was!! I will let you know my thoughts once I have read.

Ah, I wouldn't do that. Hope you enjoy the book though.

I applied for this ages ago and never received it either and whenever I've tried again since it tells me I've already registered! :mad:

Fingers crossed mine may appear but I won't hold my breath!

Does anyone else here apply to register for freebies on "What's In My Handbag". I register all the time and still haven't won anything. Just wondering.

VALM - I don't bother with 'What's in my handbag' anymore, I got one teeny little sample once then nothing else, when I did read it all seemed like 'look how cool we all are with our lovely products' and I am very bored with hearing about these 'wonderful' people and their 'amazing' lives. Moan over.

I recommend the MUA eye palettes too, I tried their eye primer and binned it after one use - complete rubbish.

Two uu to report

L'occitane - Desert Rose handcream 30ml - have another in the stash, was lovely and WMBA.

Mitchum Deodorant - this was a mans one used by DH, replaced for him yesterday using advantage points.

My shampoo is spluttering and I have one use left in a mini pot of body butter so should get a couple more uu in before the end of the month.

IN:

36. Bvlgari Omnia Crystalline EDP 5ml - freebie through the post, I applied for this 5 months ago so this was a pleasant surprise to arrive home to. Smells lovely and going to save for my honeymoon!

I got one of these on Saturday, I sent for it that long ago that I'd given up hope! Not declaring as an IN as it was free

I have a Sleek eye palette, it's very good for the £7.99 or whatever I paid for it although I only use 2 colours from it so not very worthwhile buying a full palette for me. The unused colours will either sit there and take up space because I can't bear to bin them or my sister will end up with them and I doubt she'll use them either - she's a worse hoarder than me!

I got an Ocado delivery on Sunday. They gave me a free delivery pass for 3 months which runs out next month so thought it'd be rude not to use it Anyway, I stocked up on stuff I usually buy which was on offer or cheaper than my usual supermarkets and I've heard people rave on about the Waitrose Baby Bottom Butter so I ordered one to try

I've got a blusher that's nearly UU, but I can't afford to replace it right now (I have a Boots gift card that would cover it but would rather spend that on hair dye as roots are starting to look awful). Anyone got any tips to make it last longer? It's a Revlon powder blush and the only bits left are in the corners of the pan. Can I take the bits out and mix them with anything to make a cream blush or something?

I don't have any tips to make that actual blush last longer, but you can use a lipstick as a cream blush. Just apply a little bit to your finger and blend it into your cheeks.

Another 3 OUTs to report today

Alberto Balsam Green Apple Shampoo: WBA, I managed to get it for around 89p and it has lasted for ages and did a decent job of washing my hair, so very good value.

Dove Go Fresh Body Wash in nectarine and white ginger scent: WDBA, love Dove body washes and the scent of this is lovely. One of my fave body washes.

My 3rd out wasn't meant to be an out today and I'm not very impressed! I thought I would try the new Sure compressed anti-perspirants while on offer at Tesco. I've only used one for a couple of weeks and this morning it decided it would stop working. There is plenty left in the can, it just won't spray! So I've had to get another one out and I'm hoping that this will decide to last longer.

Hope everyone is ok! xx

sold the imfamous blue skirt(looked brown in photo!)and it was "bidnapped " at the last second so went for £9 plus £3 post so will have covered original costs


was just about to go and post as buyer paid at once when I remembered it is Tuesday and the post van no longer comes today


sold 4 items of Benefit from a six item box so paid for the box with the two items I wanted which are far cheaper to buy that way(sadly box no longer on sale)

I love the single MUA shadows! I use the matte dark brown to fill on my brows every day, and the matte cream shade as a wash over my lid most days too. I'm less fond of their shimmer shades but that's probably true of all brands. Isn't it funny how we're all so different?

Ah I'm a shimmer girl!
Guess that is why you prefer the singles as they are more matte.

Hi Clutterfree, so far I've only used the glamglow tingle mask, but I think it's amazing! I have (sorry for this) a really oilly, blackhead ridden nose, and this clears it out pretty well. I've googled the original mask and it seems to do much the same so I reckon I'll get on well with that, and the other product in the set is an eye mask which I've also not tried yet. The code I had was REDCARPET and you use it on the SUPER BRIGHT GLAMTASTIC try before you buy kit which is £13, and then get another kit free. It's on glamglowmud.co.uk. Hope that helps xxx
