No buying unnecessary toiletries April 2014

Fiasco55

Afternoon ladies. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. Both me and bf are off this weekend ( which only happens every six weeks or so). We are making the most of it.

Had a bit of a run on some products..:j

Balance Me hand Cream. Why is it the products you don't like end up taking forever to UU went you have decided to target them. Ugh WNEBA horrible smell.

Balance Me Shower gel - WNBA not keen on the smell and feel it is very overpriced for what it does. Still have one left in the stash form a glamour mag.

Champneys eye cream. WBA as it went on well and did a good job moisturising. Liked the price too.

Mont Blanc Presence EDT - one from my PP list. Took ages and was nice enough but not a fav. WNBA.


Also have an OUT too.

Tigi rockaholic Matt paste hair styling product. Wasn't great with my hair but my bf loves it on his.

I hear Games of Thrones is on at 2am on Sky. Anyone staying up to watch it? Luckily I start work on a backshift tomorrow so can:D

Sorry I meant to add welcome to any newbies - this really is a lovely thread.

Hope you're enjoying your weekend off Fiasco

2 ins of sorts - loreal true match foundation (running out, none in stash), shampoo tester in Cosmo - forget which brand I'll update when UU.

Also got garnier moisturiser tester I've had before but going to use it now so neither here or there :P

How do you get on with the true match foundation? I have been looking at this recently as have read lots of good reviews.

I borrowed the GoT series one boxset a few weeks ago and honestly couldn't get into it. I only watched 4 episodes but felt like it was just an excuse to show boobs and swear. Not that I'm prudish in the slightest, I just thought it was a bit 'meh' really (and I know I'm in the minority ). I'm quite gutted though because I was expecting to love it and have nothing to watch at the moment

Hi! I'm in again this month, I haven't read through the thread but happy weddings/birthdays etc all round!!!

Just popping in to report a UU and 3 TAs

UU Toni and Guy Daily Style shampoo 250ml WMBA it was nothing that special really, though that may have been due to the fact it was a stash relic!!

3 TAs - Avon ANEW platinum Eye and Lip Cream sampl sachets - I hate throwing stuff away, but I'd decanted one of these into a pot and had been using it every day for a couple of weeks (that's how big the samples were!) and then the skin around my eays started peeling. Fair to say that I'm not sure thats supposed to happen so thrown away and WNBA. :S

I gave away the lacura eye cream today

Well a whole bag of cosmetic stuff actually to my niece ( well she's not really my niece but I can't think of a better way to describe her, it's complicated) but I think I mentioned I was going to do that last month but I've only just done it.

I'm allergic to something and I don't know what. It's either my facial scrub or my maybelline bb cream and I don't know which.


I came out in huge red spots one day last week but thought it was because I'd taken an over the counter tablet that had reacted with my prescription tablet. Slapped loads of aloe and thought nothing of it.

This morning huge blotches again..
So I did the experiment last night with the bb cream but only put it on half my face and I have rash on all my face

I have used my scrub before but at night so no makeup on after when this time I did but makeup on after and I remember I also did that when I had the rash the other day.

Guess I will def not use the scrub next time I use the bb cream then we will find out which it is.

Very annoying.

I've nearly used up my cheapo sainsburys apple conditioner. Will def buy again. I think it was under £1 and it's lasted months,

Finished off 2 cut- open tubes of toothpaste. I'll try to research in the future who tests on animals and uses microbeads (recycled plastic). Don't want either anymore!
Been using BB cream now for almost a year, it replaced foundation and concealer, less stuff cluttering up my bathroom !

I don't use foundation well except mineral powder but I def still need concealer. The eye bags of doom are much too heavy for bb cream.

Is anyone aware of any offers or deals on urban decay. I don't have many palettes now.

Hope you're feeling better roguey and that you have been having a relaxing weekend. The ring sounds lovely, does the person who makes them have a website? Would love to have a look.

The lady in particular sells through Facebook, this is my ring but all of her wire wrapped pieces are awe inspiring!

Would BA once i've used up some stash

My Maxfactor masterpeice has finally dried out, wnba and i've actually quite gone off MF all together

Avon foot works – Cherry lotion, WNBA, watery and too strong a smell
I'm beginning to realize how lacking a lot of Avon products are
