I have two uu to get me started for May
Original Source Almond & Black Cherry Shower Gel 250ml - it was ok, not particularly lathery imo.
Estee Lauder Hot Cinnamon Eyeshadow, this was part of a duo and the other colour was used ages ago, there is a bit of this left around the edges but it is just crumbling apart and it is very messy now.
I ended April with 26 uu/outs, no ins and £0 spends.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

I'm back in
I will try my hardest to have a PP list up later...
I managed well for the beginning of the month these bought some silly deals... None of which were needed. The only thing I might buy is small bottle of cuticle oil, I like having in in my bag as touches up your hands nicely if I'm going somewhere and wanna look instantly groomed.
I have enough of everything else I think to last a life time... Ok at least a few months0 -

Pinch, punch first UU of the month.
L'Occitane Rose 4Reines Hand Cream 30ml WDNBA; this was a GWP and although the cream was nice it would not have been my choice of fragrance. I usually like the smell of roses but this was a step too far towards the old people's home.Mortgage

I found that with this one as well, I like rose normally too but this was a bit strange....No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2023

Hi ladies,
I'm in again
Exciting news about weddings and birthdays coming up. I wonder how Sunday girls wedding went, hopefully she had an amazing day.
I am going for no INS now for as long as possible, unless I do actually need them. I don't have a stash of facial skincare, shampoo/conditioner, or deodorant so will have to replace at some point. My main aim is to buy no more make up. I am going to go through my stash and get rid of the products I don't like and then make sure I use everything else on a rotation. Plan to try and use a different eyeshadow and lipstick every week (I have LOADS that I have never even used
Going to make a list of all the toiletries and make up I own too and make a note of the order I need to use stuff in, in terms of how old the product is. I love a list!!
Got through some of my PP list last month. Here's this months (incorporating any left over from last month):
1. E45 Nourish and restore lotion
2. The Sanctuary body lotion
3. Original source vanilla bubble bath
4. The Sanctuary foaming shower gel
5. Soap and Glory hand food mini
6. The Body Shop seaweed mattifying day cream
7. Elle foot cream
Will see how it goes, some of those will be tougher than others!!
It takes me ages to get through shower gel despite using everyday. Don't know why, I do use one of those puffy things....0
