No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries October 2014

ruby_eskimo

Morning everyone, have a few UU to report:

- Dove intensive hair shot x 2: Not too sure on the exact name but these are like mini treatment conditioners that you put on your hair for 60 seconds and then rinse out. I was quite impressed as I have woken up with lovely curls this morning and not so much frizz. I got these free in a gift bag at the wedding show earlier in the year, so hoping I might get some more when I go on Saturday. Otherwise I might have to try and find them in the stores.

- Honey and Silk Hair Mask: this was from a BB and I wasn't wowed by it to be honest.

I'm going to stay with a friend at the weekend so I've packed as many mini's and samples as I can so hopefully I'll have a UU or 2 to report on Monday! Hope you all have a good weekend.

Hi everyone, it's raining again:eek::eek: I feel really shattered and think it may be because I have a cold coming, not happy bunny as I am on hols next week (Pembrokeshire in the rain anyone? I have plenty of warm and waterproof clothes from my "walking holiday days, so not too fussed, and excuse for lots of tea and cakes or hot chocolate:))

Sore face again, so that may slow down use of some of the items on the list:(, but I discovered yesterday that Emma Hardie Moringa Balm does not sting and put on as a balm actually soothes:D

Hi all.

I have a uu

Clarins Relax Bath & Shower Concentrate - this was a mini GWP size, I used half as shower gel and half as bubble bath, it smells great and does both jobs well. WBA.

Hooray a UU! One of the shower gels that DS got me at Christmas, Imperial Leather Oriental Calm Cherry Blossom and Vanilla Bean.
WIBA? Yes, lashings of lovely moisturising lather and a really pleasant scent. Not so thick that it took ages to flow out of the bottle either. On to the last of the Christmas present shower stuff now, an OS Honey and Shea Butter shower cream.

Hi ladies.

Am feeling the need to buy something and I don't know why! Maybe it's cos Christmas is coming and all the gift sets are appearing! Must stay strong!

Did notice today though that our bottle of L'occitane hand wash is running low and I don't have any replacements. MrM also got a code from them for a free gift (the email I set up to be sent to him never arrived - or so he says!!) hence also why I feel the need to order something.

I do have three body washes that are sort of spluttering though. Have a huge bottle of Soap & Glory Sugar Crush, L'Occitane Cherry Blossom hand wash (which I suppose I should now keep aside in case we run out of the Verbena one on the hand basin) and a tube of Clinique Facial Liquid Soap which was really drying on my face so have started to use as a shower gel.

An OUT this afternoon!

I don't know if there is an acronym for this... managed to sell another unused nail polish that doesn't suit me. 1 nail polish down and £9.99 after p&p into my piggy bank!

Some more UUs and TAs for me :j

Dream Matte Mousse make up by Maybelline: Have to throw it out since it was open for too long and gave me a huge breakout. But I still have another jar of it

SebaMed cleansing foam: WDBA since it's my HG. It's medical skincare and the only thing working for me

Gilette Shaving Foam: WBA since you can always use it.

Two UUs:

Rosewater

Tresemme Instant refresh dry shampoo - WNB? Left too many white stains on my dark hair and didn't freshen hair enough.

Ins: Boots Rosewater & Glycerin

Babafette

Evening ladies, here are the use ups from my latest Project Pan list. Kadus Imunal Sebo Control Shampoo 250ml - this was a TK Maxx bargain several years ago and I was a bit sad to see it go although it still didn't sort out my greasy hair. I would possibly buy it again if I came across it, but I don't think they make this particular variant any more.

I finished the last couple of Sanctuary Spa Deep Cleansing Wipes x 25. I wouldn't buy these again as they didn't agree with my skin and made it break out. I originally had three more packs of these from a Boots glitch some time ago but I returned and exchanged the other packs at the time as I knew I wouldn't use them.

Nivea Hand Essential Moisturising Lotion sachet 3ml - fairly old and didn't do much. It was far too runny and not nourishing enough.

Boots Natural Collection Rosemary and Witch Hazel Face Mask sachet 10ml - good value as it lasted two full applications. Nothing special though and I probably won't buy it again as I rarely use face masks and I still have lots of other varieties in the stash.

The Aussie conditioner is spluttering and the Timotei shampoo is steadily going down so hopefully there will be some more use ups soon.

I'm getting my hair cut tomorrow morning so hopefully that will give me a little boost. It's getting so tangled at the moment and looks like a birch broom in a fit!

I don't think I've had this l'occ email - I checked the Facebook page and my emails but couldn't see anything

I've been looking at the Boots website. Does anyone else look at the gifts and automatically halve the price thinking of the boxing day sale? Not sure there's all that much I'm tempted by this time round...

I actually got two emails with different codes so got 6 freebies in total but one poor friend didn,t get her email so I got in touch with Occitanne and they said they would resend but never appeared
re thinking ahead to sales I bought a dress from white stuff from their new catalogue(admittedly went through tcb and had a 20% coupon)BUT was well annoyed when a month after buying it and not having even worn it they put it in the mid season sale(never used to have sales this time of year!) at 50% off!!!!surely they must know how this annoys people
on a brighter note I found out I will become a great aunt in May 2015......makes me sound really old LOL
