Sorry ladies, it's me again!
1 quick UU -
55: Aromatherapy Associates Support Breathe bath/shower oil 3ml - probably wouldn't buy again, was a bit disappointed as was expecting the smell of this to fill my bathroom but it didn't. I used the whole 3ml in one bath too. Got lots of the other fragrances to use still. Might try using one in the shower.
Lots of splutterers at the minute! Put a face mask on earlier in the hope that I will wake up tomorrow and the dreaded spots will be gone - unlikely though
I think these AA bath oils are totally overhyped.
I found the Glamglow mask was brilliant at clearing my skin but it is very expensive.
I have uu
Steam Cream 75ml, this is too rich for my face so I used it on DD to help keep her eczema at bay, I would use it again for that but we much prefer Lush Dream Cream and you get more for your money with that too.
Philosophy Old Fashioned Eggnog - 480ml, WDBA and already have a mini bottle of it in the stash, it is gorgeous, I used it as bubble bath, shower gel and shampoo like it says and it did all three jobs really well.
Body Shop Shea Butter Body Butter - 200ml, WBA but have loads of other body butters/lotions to use up.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

I opted for damage limitation and chose two non-skincare items to get the Clinique Bonus Time gift. I don't count make-up and have so little of it and rarely wear any but fancied trying some CC Cream along with a redness correcting powder compact.
Although there was a lovely Chubby stick, Mascara and Eyeshadow Duo in the GWP I am only counting four INS for the skincare:
Even Better Tone Correcting Moisturiser 15ml
Even Better Eyes Dark Circle Corrector 10ml
Liquid Facial Soap 30ml
Dramatically Different Moisturiser 30ml
Best of all I got 10% off the full price, paid mostly with vouchers and only had to use $2.40 of my own money. :money:Mortgage
Start January 2017: $268,012
Latest balance $266,734
Reduction: $1,278.450 -
Thinking of bobbing into Boots or Superdrug tomorrow for a new body lotion/butter. All the ones in my stash now are floral and I'm using Lush Ponche at the moment so need something fruity. Any recommendations.
Declaring 2 INs which I'm really pleased with. Went into ASDA on Tuesday armed with some money off vouchers of approximately £5.00 (those vouchers produced on the 10% Gurantee promotion) and picked up 2 x 200ml body butters in Mango and Pink Grapefruit on offer at 2 for £4.00. So they cost me nothing.mrs-moneypenny wrote: »clutterfree babywipes are brill for house cleaning jobs like cleaning sticky finger marks off door frames, if you dont want to use them on your face you could repurpose them;)
My friend at work told me this too. Makes you wonder how they're safe for use on babies.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
Take time but don't waste time0
