No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries August 2014

Wondercollie and Fiasco, I hope that things pick up for you soon, great to see you both here though.
Kadison, what a big sigh of relief about the passport, a visit to Norway sounds great, and with special person too:D

UU's
10ml Elemis Pro-quartz serum, came as part of a set so probably WNBA, nothing wrong with it, but did not wow me.
15ml Eyesilix, MBA did a good job of firming and helped on eye bags, need something more moisturising at night though I think.
15ml of an ancient perfume Xia Xiang, probably not still available, but I enjoyed wearing it.
15ml Clinique Stop Signs, GWP from way back.

Sunny here today after many, many iffy or down right wet days:j:j

I finally have some UU to report

SpaTopia - Anti aging hand cream. Gone, finished! finally used woohoo. It was nice though and I'd be tempted to buy again.

Elemis - Rose Bubble bath - Used up but sad as I love it.

Organic Head - Galvin and Galvin (I LOVE IT) Detox Shampoo
Organic Head - Galvin and Galvin Detox Conditioner (I LOVE THIS TOO )

I know this is post doesn't cover makeup and nail varnish but they are my only purchases lately so I'm reporting them

IN - Miss Sporty Instant Colour and Shine lip pen in Plum.
- Silver glitter nail varnish - Its really hard to find normal silver glitter!
- Red nail varnish just because it would not let me pass it without buying it.

Another couple of UU's for me!

No7 Micro Exfoliant (Face) - WDBA and gutted I don't have any more in stash as I usually buy this in bulk with No7 vouchers. Will buy more once No7 vouchers come out.

Elemis Pro Collagen Marine Cream 15ml - I have loads of these from GWP's and they are fine. Sometimes I feel makes my skin a little greasy, will maybe need to use at night instead.

I know, he said we're going to take a cruise on the fjords, I almost died with happiness, I've ALWAYS wanted to do that!!! :j:j:j

I've sorted out my insurance, booking the flights as we speak (just remembered train tickets to Heathrow as well!), ordered my EHIC card, got the passport, going to order my Krones.....have I forgotten anything?!

I've been bed shopping today, some places were dreadful but I've narrowed it down. I needed a new mattress anyway as blokie and I are sick of rolling into one another when we're trying to sleep (or trying to escape and nearly falling out of bed), so I've decided an upgrade is in order.

I've measured thrice and know I can get a kingsize bed in my room, might be a bit tight but the extra room will be very welcome as will the excuse to go and buy some new bedding :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Evening ladies

Kadison sounds like you're all set for your Norway break. What a treat! I'm also thinking along the same lines as you regarding upgrading to a King Size bed. Me and the fella have been together 15 months now and need the space. I've been doing some research too and found my "double" is 4cm smaller than a normal sized double been. Have had it for over 5 years and never noticed before. :huh:
But it will have to wait for another few months as the amount of things that have broken in my flat and been replaced has cleared me out.

Thanks everyone too, things are improving and mum is back in her volunteering a few hours a week. My back is taking its time but at least I can get to work, last the day and get home.

Got a TA No. 17 sliver nail polish - it's gone beyond gloopy and is ancient.

Also a UU molten Brown ylang ylang shower gel. Loved this but it is very expensive. It's been replaced with a L'Occitane one that smells devine.

3 Give aways to work colleague:

2 x Vita Liberata Luxury tan samples - samples from Glossy box which I have no need for with my Ebony dark skin :-)

2 x Garnier Skin Naturals Miracle Skin Cream samples - Not sure if this is supposed to a BB cream for light skin but I put this on in a hurry and and ended up looking like I had a Kabuki mask on. Thank goodness I checked myself in the mirror before I left the house lol.

Sunsense tint SPF 50 sample - Not sure whether it's any good but doubt it will be suitable for me.

UUs: Fashion Fair foundation stick: This was my PP. Will try to stick to Sleek BB cream as it is doesn't feel as heavy on my skin.

BS Peach body scrub - WBA if on sale.
INS:
Various Along Came Betty products from Tesco sale -
Face scrub
2 x hand creams - desperately needed
2 x night creams

Wow Kadison that is some uu list.

I have two more uu to report

Noble Isle Willow Song Bath & Shower Gel 75ml, this came in a LIB box I think, I used it as bubble bath and it smelt lovely but was very, very strong and gave me a headache so WNBA.

nSPA Jasmine & White Musk Shower Mousse 200ml, this lasted ages and the kids loved the novelty factor of the mousse, WMBA.
