No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries September 2014

Ruby, as the FAB Radiance Pads contain AHA's your skin could possibly be purging. I'm not saying it is that, but if it is then it's just bringing all the nasties that are lurking under the skin to the surface, and then after that your skin should be clear. I hope it's that because then your skin will look lovely afterwards!No more goo hoarding!

We're going to Disneyworld for part of our honeymoon and I feel like it's taking over my life, what with all the blogs, videos and forums to read for research purposes!
Re: the Lush forum - it used to be a lot more community based, there were the same old faces posting regularly, and then the scammers and trolls started and a lot of people left.
My skin is currently freaking out due to hormones (well I'm hoping it's hormones and not the FAB Facial Radiance Pads I started using 2 weeks ago...)
I don't think I'd mention the Disney holiday before. We are not going until NEXT September and I can't believe the amount of planning involved! We've booked for two weeks at Yacht & Beach Club (which hotel are you staying at?) as the deals for Disney were really great. We've got discounted park tickets and DDP included. Anyway due to the new MagicBands you have to book any restaurants you want to eat at 6 months in advance and then there's the Fastpass+ that you have to book in advance. Such a lot to think about. Who would have thought it was a holiday?? When do you go?
Yes, sounds like the Lush forum is not a place for me. Thanks for the advice.
Sorry to hear that you are experiencing problems with your skin. Hope it settles down soon. xBack 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!

I hate dying my hair. :mad: Just used a 'golden caramel blonde' and my hair is almost very dark brown :eek: just about to dry it but not impressed.
I thought as I was adding it to my hair it looked dark.
I suppose that's an OUT but going by the way it looks now WNeverBA :mad: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 -

I have INs:
6-8/196-198. Sanctuary Mela Amla and Cardamom Shower Drench 250ml
Oh! This sounds lovely. I adore cardamon and it isn't a very common scent to find. I'm better off forgetting it exists though - by the time I finish my shower gel stash I imagine they won't make it anymore! :eek:
I'm joining you on the naughty step. I bought the You Beauty Philip Kingsley box and it arrived today:
PK Scalp Toner (75ml)
PK Maximiser (60ml)
PK Daily Damage Defence (60ml)
PK Elasticizer (75ml)
PK Swimcap (75ml)
PK Moisturise Balance Conditioner (75ml)
PK Body Building Shampoo (75ml)
ETA I've found the I have a £15 voucher to use at PK as well :-)
I bought it because I'm using the scalp toner at the moment so (here comes the toiletries maths!) thought that £10 for the rest of the items was good value. (Box = £16.95 - £7.50 (normal Scalp Toner cost) = £9.45)
My other in was impulsive and unneccessary:
3 x Clarins Hydraquench Mask (15ml total) I'm excited about trying this.
To try and make up for the above I have some OUTS!
Lush Christmas soap. The white one that smells of almonds? GONE! It was about 5 years old and took FOREVER to use up. (so v :money: I suppose as it was in the sale in the first place.) I was so happy to start on a Korres soap...
Elemis Treat Your Feet Foot Cream (20ml) - WNBA as I don't like lavender
Balance Me Super Moisturising Body Wash (125ml) - WDBA. One of my favourite shower gels and more 'in stock' from an old magazine offer/eBay
Trilogy Rosehip Oil (2.5ml) - WNBA. It went off really quickly! V disappointed by this.
Westlab Himilayan Bath Salts (100g) - WNBA as they didn't make my bath any nicer (may have done me some good? Who knows??)
I also finished a Yankee Candle votive. I'm on a mission to UU as many of my candles as possible and then I can choose some new ones...
ETA Asset - I'm sorry about your hair! Hopefully it will dry lighter than it looks at the moment? Can you quickly wash the dye out (I think that people use Head and Shoulders to make it work quickly?) I keep thinking that I'd like to dye my hair and then I chicken out (mine is waist length so I can't even begin to imagine growing the dye out...)0 -
I also have a UU today (we're all doing a good job, ladies! :T )
Felce Azzurra "Bagno Elegante" Showergel: WNBA. Bought it on vacation and got a headache from the smell. Used it to clean my brushes but that took me forever!
I'm happy it's goneweight loss journey: 3 KG / 8 KG

Afternoon ladies
Uu elvive hair mask, twas ok, nothing special would probably not repurchase, have no conditioner left in the stash now
Uu finished off the remains of my 500mls bottle of MB templetree shower gel, wba, I think they only do these large sizes at Christmas so will plod on with the other stuff in the stash until then
Happy pampering xo0 -

I'm still in the throes of a whopping breakout too, and have been using these pads for a week. I *think* AF could be on her way but if I get hormonal spots it tends to be just after she's arrived rather than before. Hmmm :think:
I have a NBI for today:
Dior J'Adore L'eau Cologne Floral 125ml; gifted by my favourite customer as she is clearing out her perfume collection, there's probably about a fifth of it used. Just looked on eBay and there's a new bottle listed for £70 :eek: It's light and floral, will make a good everyday scent I think.0 -

Forgot to mention a Uu
Gorgeous by Gok body lotion with rose oil, thankfully this didn't have much of I rose scent to it ( I'm really not a rose fan), this may have been due to the length of time it's been in the stash though, it was a good moisturizer but I wnba
Happy pampering xo0
