No buying unnecessary toiletries March 2014

rosemary54

had a lovely day in Cambridge with my sister,flirting like man with a man young enough to be our son on a punt in the sunshine
some ins and out to confess,we both got a free new for old handcream at Crabtree,I got part of a magazine freebie from Occitane!(not sure why they only had 1 part of a two part offer and sadly it was the perfume I wanted that they did not have)so got a body lotion and 3 sachets of perfume,two samples minis of Bobbi brown foundation and mascara via My john lewis and a small sample of Lancôme for same reason plus free tea and cakes from Jl as well
also got two tops from East but that's another story


have left the ebay thing to ebay to sort which they will do on the 18th,cannot believe the woman as she is getting the thing less than half price and I checked other peoples postage and mine was not the highest,am not bothering to contact her again.
got a nice skirt from ebay yesterday so mostly good things from there

One IN, a "Radiance Balm" I have been sent to test. I swear all my IN's have been testing products! I assumed this was a cleansing balm when I was told about the trial but it seems like a moisturiser. The instructions on how to use it aren't very clear. Seems nice though!

I have a couple of other OPI pinks that are similar and a couple of them are available from Fragrance Direct. See here:

http://www.fragrancedirect.co.uk/opi/opi-nail-lacquer-15ml/invt/0040019

Of those colours I own Elephantastic Pink (which is my favourite) and Kiss Me On The Tulips (which I only own a mini bottle of). I also own Strawberry Margharita which is not on FD though. Not that I'm enabling of course.

AMAZING! £3.99?? :O Really need to get using up some in the stash first :A. My problem is that I'm 20, but I have nail polishes from when I was in school and tastes as a teenager were obviously very different! Trying to do lots of nail art to incorporate the strange colours! :rotfl:

Did have another UU after I posted this morning.

Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser. This is a lovely product however not much use in repurchasing as it does not give the coverage that my Balance N Brighten does. If my skin is ever in such good condition that I can get away with wearing this I would repurchase though.

Have managed to get a green top from Sue Ryder shop. Yay.

Hi all

Still can't recover my toiletries document, so I'm giving up until weekend!

1 UU to declare - Next diamonds body wash - WNBA, was a gift and its ok but smells a bit cheap. Was great for the gym!

Valm - so tempted by the OPI but saving for holiday in May.

No INs this month, I'm doing so bloody well!

Hello ladies, I thought I had posted yesterday but I think it just ignored me!

Anyway my liz earle order came today, I got a few nice bits for mum but also couldn't resist ordering a handbag sized super balm. It feels similar to burts bees handsalve except I can also use this in my lips. It also came with an extremely generous 30ml C&P, muslin cloth and 15m, sachet of jasmine and tiare body lotion! this is my first time ordering so I'm really impressed!

Also a cut open my EverRiche shampoo and used up the last of it. Already repurchased as my hair seems to like it. I have a patch of eczema on my scalp and find SLS heavy shampoos irritate it but the usual SLS free ones leave my hair looking horrible. This is a good compromise and always on 3for2!

Hello!

Just popping in again to report a couple of ins and outs

4 UU

Wilkinsons skin therapy dual faced cotton pads (80)WNBA - they kept peeling apart when removing them from the pack and generally felt a little rough. Replaced with Aldi lacura cotton pads, which seem to be pressed together at the edges and are textured on one side. Head and shoulders above Wilkos and cheaper to boot!

FCUK Body wash 175ml WNBA I hated this to begin with, but it grew on me eventually. I wouldn't buy this, but wouldn't be annoyed to be given it.

Lancôme Tonique Éclat 15ml GWP - WNBA this was far too harsh for me, should've chucked it really. but I'm too tight

Balance Me Moisture Rich Face Cream 20ml WNBA this was a GWP, magazine I think. WNBA. It claims to be for dry/sensitive skin, but wasn't moisturising enough and felt a bit too tingly for my liking.

And one IN. I can't remember who it was , but some of you were going on about the non powder blotting papers, then I found the Kleenex shine absorbing sheets in Home Bargains for 29p! Bargain!!

ETA 1 more UU - Rainforest Radiance Conditioner 60ml This was a body shop freebie, probably WNB, I have conditioners I love more.

Sorry for all the posts just been catching up!

sam4000 - wow you've been busy with all your UUs!


!

I seem to be on a roll and finally have stopped buying.

UU's
Shower gel from beauty box ( can't remember what it was called) WNBA did not like the scent so used it as bubble bath.

NB body butter 2 oz pot WNBA they are far too greasy, I think the main ingredients is Shea butter, very natural ingredients but these are being targeted to get rid of so I can use something I want to use.

Avon revitalist eye system 15ml WNBA this wax a LHJ and has been on the go since October so glad to have finally finished it.

Lush sugar scrub WNBA about 3 years old, just glad to be rid.
TA
Boots cranberry scrub WNBA it was not scrubby so after using about half I thought putting a sugar scrub block thing from lush was a great idea. It wasn't, it separated out and looked so unpleasant I did use the sugar scrub from lush but the rest of this went down the sink.

2 butter scotch bubble bars ( not lush) WNBA I used half of one and hated it it made the bath very slippery and I though it was actually dangerous to pass the last one on. It did not make the bath bubble and did not really smell of anything just left the water brown.
