No buying unnecessary toiletries February 2014

FizzWhizz

UU #37: S&G Peaches & Clean Cleanser 200ml; WMBA, really nice product which left my skin feeling clean without being overly drying, the only negative is the (much discussed and maligned) packaging. Still have some Ultimelt left to use up before I need to buy any more.

Opened my Lacura facial oil last night and slapped it on my chops before bed. Haven't looked in the mirror yet to see the results but my skin feels lovely to the touch this morning

Ohh have fun watching Russell Howard VAL we went to see him in Manchester the Christmas before last I think it was now and it was fab! My ultimate favourite though has to be Kevin Bridges, he is hiliarious, went to see him in Liverpool last year, soo funny!

Have a good time with Russell Howard VALM, unfortunately he neither does it for me in looks or humour. My favourite comedians for comedy alone are Lee Mack, Stephen K Amos and Peter Kay. Being a fellow northener Peter Kay really has me :rotfl:as there are things which are true to the north more than anywhere else. I am really looking forward to the new Jonathan Creek tonight, I love Alan Davies and just adore J Creek.

I have my final uu for the month

Body Shop Mango Body Butter - 50ml, WDBA

That brings me to 35 uu/outs and not one single in paid for or otherwise.

Morning all

Another UU:

43. Yves Rocher Elixir 7.9 Youth Intensifying Serum 30ml - this was nice enough and didn't leave my skin congested like many others do. It was my GWP when I spent very little but probably WNBA unless on a similar offer as the usual price for this is about £25.

Last UU of the month

15/ (well I think its 15). Lush candy mountain: WDBA in sale! Is almost a HG like the comforter but I'd pay full price for the comforter, I only ever buy this in the sale

Few more in the stash

See you all in next months thread xx

Ooh I bought 2 of these ages ago (one for dry skin and one for sensitive skin) but haven't tried them. Tempted now but I have a few facial products on the go so will try to resist for a while longer.

my secret guilty comic crush is Eddie Izzard - dont ask me why

There's nothing secret or guilty about my Eddie Izzard crush. I just hope he has the same size feet as me so I can borrow his shoes and I'd love to raid his make up bags:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
I also have a thing for Jack Dee, maybe because he'd always make me look like the cheery one;)

Finishing February with 2 UUs - a shampoo (DH actually had the honours of finishing it as he'd run out of his own shampoo) and the No.7 body lotion I treated myself to at Christmas.

Kind-of off-topic


I am in SERIOUS danger of becoming a nail polish -a-holic. Well not that I don't own a stack of polishes already but I suddenly have a longing for loads of new out ones......help!!!

I'm with Babafette, no help to you at all, I am totally a lost cause:rotfl:, But I do lots of research on line reading blogs and looking at swatches and then make a short-list, then scout around for a good deal on the price. By that time I have often whittled the list down to a sensible level (says me not my OH):D

I can see the appeal of Russell, even though he is younger than my kids. Rhod Gilbert, I can DEFINITELY see the appeal. Ditto Eddie Izzard.
Most of them are too young for me to fancy, seems all wrong to do so.
Zilch to report on toiletries front, though for anyone interested in cooking on a budget, I have got Jack Monroe's new book and it is brilliant, I do recommend it. This young woman is a genius.

Eddie and John Bishop for me - on the "if I was x years younger" justification:o

Must look for the "Jack" book, although really don't have any more space for any book that cannot be read and recycled pretty much straight away:(

Last bits and bobs for February are:-

UU 75ml Silvikrin hairspray. OK but prefer Elnett.

UU Lancome Eyeshadow Palette, pretty much scraped out as much as I can, was a GWP, but do have a new Lancome one, on to M&S one first.

UU 15ml REN Frankincense Night Cream. WBA at some point.

TA Elizabeth Arden Grey Eyeshadow. WNBA this shade of grey does nothing for me with present hair colour.

IN Revitalash 2ml Lash growth stuff, so tempted by QV* TSV, but there will be another offer at some stage.

IN MUA Fashion Secret Flawless Primer.

I managed to complete January's PP list, so here is February's PP list...

[strike]1. Clinique moisture surge[/strike]
[strike]2. Vaseline night body renewal[/strike]
[strike]3. Boots spa firming cream[/strike]
[strike]4. Ted Baker Body scrub[/strike]
[strike]5. Ted Baker shower gel[/strike]
[strike]6. Dove body lotion[/strike]
[strike]7. A'kin hand cream[/strike]
[strike]8. Avon curly hair serum[/strike]
[strike]9. Tova Signature Perfume[/strike]
[strike]10. No 7 P & P serum[/strike]

PP list completed! :T

6 UUs in total.

Avon curly hair serum - WNBA as I've not had curly hair for years!

Akin hand cream - WMBA but have others in stash. Liked this as it was non greasy.

Batiste Diva dry shampoo - WNBA don't tend to yes dry shampoos but won this in a competition. Leaves my hair dull with a dusty tinge. Nut a good look!

Pecksniffs perfume Classic Chypre - WNBA as not keen on smell so glad it's gone.

Calvin Klein Secret Obsession perfume sample - WNBA took me back to the 90's when I used to wear Obsession.
There are other perfumes I prefer to this, but if received it as a gift I'd happily wear it.

Ted Baker Butterfly Wings body wash - WMBA loved the fragrance but even with a shower net I didn't think it lathered as well as my usual shower gels. (May have already declared this but forgot to remove from list!)
