No buying unnecessary toiletries February 2014

Kiwisaver_2

Woohoo!! I may be smothered in just a touch more body lotion than is strictly necessary for one day, however big drumroll as I kissed goodbye to Sanctuary Spa Body Lotion 200ml It's in the old skool orange colour scheme, so heaven knows how old it is and I have been using it religiously after every shower for what seems like months and months.

Another long haul job M&S Pure Hot Cloth Cleanser 200ml pump also is no more :T WMBA sometime when I don't have another half a dozen cleansers to get through, this is another product that's been beside the bathroom sink in regular use for several months and I was more than a little bored with it.

Well done on your use ups Kiwisaver. I must admit I still have a lot of old Sanctuary Spa items in the original orange packaging. Yet more of my favourite things I was saving for special treats......... :doh:

Seeing Russell Howard on Friday night. x

You and Russell Howard are an item?

Another UU to report today: Aquafresh fresh and minty mouthwash, will replace with the same.

Using a Spa Body Wash in my showers at the moment, which says it's made by Tesco. It was from a small gift set for Christmas from my SIL and it smells vile! I'm going to keep going with it but I can't wait until it's gone. DH and I always spend ages trying to find her lovely presents and I always receive something that cost her about £3 from Tesco or Home Bargains or somewhere and that's it lol!

Few ins, mostly freebies

Manuka Doctor Rejuvenating Face Mask 7ml x2
Manuka Doctor Age Defying Serum 7ml
Manuka Doctor Skin Treatment Serum 5ml
Manuka Doctor Targeted Wrinkle Filler 3ml
Manuka Doctor Restoring Night Cream 7ml
Salcura Derma Spray Intensive 15ml
Salcura Zeoderm Skin Repair Moisturiser 3ml x 3

Not impressed by the Salcura so far. You're supposed to spray the spray directly on to the skin as it means you don't have to rub it in and it will be then be gentler, which makes sense. However, it goes on quite thick and wouldn't be able to not rub it in, especially as I'm using it on my face. I've pretty much given up on the spray for the time being. I've used the moisturiser a few times on dry patches and can't say I've noticed much difference. Awful smell and consistency which doesn't rub in well. I won't tell you what it looks like. :eek:

The only purchased and full sized in is Tesco Fragrance Free Vitamin E Cleansing Facial Wash for Sensitive Skin, 150ml. This is to replace a Balance Me Facial Wash which I've used up and was nothing special. The Tesco one cost a whole £1.40! I think my skin may be on the verge of a major breakout at the moment. I'm hoping it isn't because I'm hoping to start a new job soon.

Hello All, It's been some time since I posted, but have UUs GAs to report.

First, 6 GAs; 5 Champneys nail varnishes and a Matte OPI Nail Envy to my Neice for her birthday! Recycled present, as have my own drawer full of NV's!!

Also, 3 UUs:
75 ml tube Clarins Beauty Flash Balm, an HG as far as I'm concerned, but will not replace immediately as I have so many tubes of various primers I'm going to make do with them until they're used up.

20ml Balance Me balancing face moisturiser. Don't think this was the right type for my skin as it didn't really do anything; should have passed it on to my DD.

Simple Eye Makup Remover Pads - always use these and will replace when stash used up.

I've done a bit of clearing today, so half my computer desk is clear:). Also 4 hardbacks to take to charity shop - it's a lovely day, and I need the walk!

I just loaded my basket at fragrancedirect, then closed the window. I want new shampoo and conditioner as I am really not getting on with my current ones, but I know if I buy the Osmo ones I'm eyeing up, my stash will continue to linger

If I can get to the end of March without any unnecessary INS I will treat myself. That's the deal.

Well Feb is nearly over. I don't think I'll have any more UUs now before Friday.

Probably have another UU even after saying the above. Went into Emma's room this morning to use the Batiste and she asked me to make sure I saved her some. The can felt very light. I ended up washing my hair in the end instead. Plus the Aussie Conditioner will need cutting open the next time we use it so maybe just maybe there will be two more before tomorrow night x

Without spoiling it for everybody else, I thought the film was trying to stay vaguely true to the book in that the final act was actually another evil deed, but my friend thought it was a good deed. What were your thoughts Val?
Have fun! I really like Russell Howard.

I am going to PM you my answer cos there's no way of saying without giving away the ending!!

Spain, I enjoyed just lazing around. We did get to Granada and Gibralter, they were must sees. Couple of museum days in Malaga. I know you will think this strange, but I'd go back again before I'd go to Mexico. Even though Mexico's weather is better! Just felt safer and cleaner. I must be getting old.

Sounds lovely. I can't wait to revisit Gibralter in August. Wish we were porting at Malaga again too but sadly not this time.
