I'm IN and have just UU Timotei Vivid Colour Conditioner . Will need to get more soonish as only have one set of back up bottles not in use at the moment...its not always in the £1 or on offer:money: I will also need to get some face wipes as I've ran out and am camping at weekend, fingers crossed its not raining too much.Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
OMG I am so excited, but annoyed at the same time!
I'm seeing blokie next weekend (Sunday) for our 4th date, but why do I have to wait so flamin' long? It's already been a whole 6 days since I saw himI think this might be getting serious you know.......
eeeeeeeeeeeeee :j:j:j

Hi ladies, thanks for the new thread clutterfree, I am definitely still in!
I finished May with 5 UU and no unncessary ins so at least the stash is going in the right direction. I am having more success with chucking out old stuff but haven't been including it in the challenge, I think I have chucked about 40 old make up products so far (and most of them were very old :eek:)
All this talk of sunscreen has made me think I should probably buy a new facial one for days I am outside a lot. For days I am working and indoors I am happy to rely on my moisturiser and make up for SPF but I was outdoors most of Saturday so should have had something better on.No more buying unnecessary toiletries 2018
35 UU / 13 unnecessary ins0 -
Hii ladies! How are you all?!
I've not posted for a little while - I got caught up in exams, but have missed you all and have been keeping to the challenge of buying no products this year! I can't believe it's June already!
Some UU to report:
1. Origins Dermabrasion - WNBA, this would make my eyes sting even when just on my cheeks and it just did nothing for my skin.
2. Liz Earle Instant Skin Boost Tonic - HG, I just love spraying this on my skin directly after showering, WDBA!
3. Balance Me Radiance Face Oil Rollerball 10ml - I used it alone for a while and wasn't sure... But when I mixed it in with my moisturiser and then applied, this stuff was amazing! WBA
4. Indeed Labs Eyesilix 15ml - good stuff, WBA
5. Clarins Hydraquench Very Dry Skin Moisturiser 50ml - WBA, I liked the consistency esp when mixed with a facial oil
6. Una Brennan Rose Hydrate SPF 15 Daycream 75ml - WNBA, I didn't like reaching for this and was only okay when blended with a facial oil. Could really feel/smell the SPF in it.
7. Essential Nuance Airy Shampoo 500ml - previous HG, used to love this but now keen to move onto other products.
8. Neutrogena Shampoo Anti Residue Formula 175ml - picked this up in America, not available here but WBA if I came across it.
9. Philosophy Peppermint Stick 480ml 3in1 - WBA from this range, lovely!
10. Clarins Eau Dynamatiste Bodywash - WBA, love this scent!
11. Right Guard Shower Oils + Women 200ml - WBA, lovely feel and scent.
12. Body Shop Cranberry Joy Body Polish 100ml - WMBA, this was gentle enough to use daily as a shower gel.
13. Body Shop Cranberry Body Butter 100ml - WBA, but prefer other BS scents
14. Boots Extracts Mini Body Butters 50ml Mango, Coconut, Cranberry, Cocoa Butter - WBA, loved these esp the Cranberry which had this lovely sherbert scent (but somehow not sickening!)
15. L'Occitance Lavender Liquid Soap 500ml - WNBA, find this a bit drying - have another of these which I am using up now
16. Ultra Dex Low Abrasion Toothpaste 75ml - WNBA, didn't feel fresh!
17. Ginvera Green Tea Exfoliating Marvel Gel 10g - WNBA, I didn't feel like it exfoliated much - glad I only purchased the sample size at first to try.
Phew!
I am going to have to buy a few planned products this week - shower gel as I am close to the end of my last bottle, some shaving gel - I've been doing without since finishing my supplies but definitely prefer using this when shaving my legs, and an exfoliating face wash as I feel like my skin is just dull since I've been only using soft/oil/hot cloth cleansers - I saw the Amie brand on offer (I've always liked their products - very cheap for what they are) in Waitrose today so I'm going to pick up their exfoliating wash tomorrow (but needed to report here first haha!)
Off to catch up xxx0 -

i think that all of it.
i havent bothered counting the toothpaste & mouth wash products as they are essentialsSPC~12 ot 124
In a world that has decided that it's going to lose its mind, be more kind my friend, try to Be More Kind0 -
I'm in this too! We have a basket of toiletries, including so much toothpaste the health visitor keeps giving us for our daughter. Do you think the low fluoride kids toothpaste would be ok to use as adults? We've honestly got about 8 tubes of the stuff, and as my daughter only uses a tiny smear of toothpaste twice a day it's going to take us about 10 years to get through them!0

Happy June everyone! Hopefully this will be the month the summer appears! I'm excited for this month actually as at the end of the month I will be going on holiday, so will be in the sunshine for my birthday on July 1st! very nice.
Also, I was looking at my stash list this morning and I have now UU more products than is in my stash (although I think there may be a few products lying around that I have missed, but we'll just go by my list I think!) I'm pretty proud of how I've been doing, which is great motivation to carry on!
Also 3 UU as expected over the weekend.
• Biore Perfect Milk SPF 50 – Have two more in the stash. Wish they were bigger bottles! WDBG
• Origins Make A Difference + moisturiser – Was nice, but I got it in a good value set so probably wouldn't buy it again unless it was on another good offer. WMBA
• TBS Vitamin E moisturiser – WNBA Nothing special. It was a little pot though so I've kept it to fill up with another moisturiser to take away with me.No more goo hoarding!
