No Buying Unnecessary ToiletriesDecember 2014

finished the benefit fondation - would buy this again, didnt like it at first but it grew on me

and 3 INs

however I looked at it, I decided I couldn't justify the 'cost' of the Opium shower gel - even if I could pay for it competely using Advantage Points

So I opted to splash out £2 on a 'no perfume' Simple shower gel instead.

And I also picked up two bottles of the Argan Oil that's become a HG item for me. I identified I should have 3 bottles (1 in en-suite, 1 in travel bag, and 1 in swim/gym kit) but only have a single 30ml bottle (the one I bought to try it out). Went out planning on another that size and a larger one if they did such a thing - the small bottles then being for bags and the larger one for the en-suite. Found a 30ml with 20ml free which made it 99p for 50ml. But I also found 100ml (in a pump bottle instead of having to try and not pour out too much) for £1.49. So I opted to buy 2 of the larger ones as it's clearly more cost effective. I'm going to put the small bottle into my travel kit as that's the one that's least used.

UU: boots 'fresh' bath pearls

Don't know why I bothered, they didn't serve any purpose!

I have more in stash as they were part of gift sets I'd never buy them individually (and don't even think I'd buy the 'fresh' any more if they still do it either)

SuiDreams

Even though I'm not starting properly till January still working on reducing stash. Giving away a few items for food and gift bank thingy at work. So hopefully stash list won't be quite so bad when I start in January.

Hi everyone!

Life is MENTAL at the minute, hence me not being round much. I have 2 UUs & I've not really asked for anything toiletry-related for Christmas or anything, and I don't really need anything, so I'm not expecting anything much. All is therefore good!

UUs:

Original Source Mint and Tea Tree shower gel. WIBA? Yup. Holy grail but I have others for now, so I won't need to.

Mitchum roll on deodorant. Also a HG product. I have a stash, though, recently bought, so it's all good.

If I don't get the chance to post again before Christmas, have a BRILLIANT time everyone! I should be back before new year, but if not, may the start of 2015 be kind to you, your families and your stashes (that means them not getting any bigger, not the opposite! ).

Love, hugs and mince pie flavoured kisses.

Pickle

Is the argan oil from Boots too? If so which one is it?

also finished a st ives body scrub - would buy again at some point but have to say much prefer using a body wash with exfoliating gloves

Nope. I saw the smaller bottles in Quality Save/Home Bargains, but got the larger bottles from B&Ms (QS/HM also had the larger ones, but at £1.99 instead of £1.49). It's in a brown box that just says Argan Oil.

Some UU's

15ml Lacura Eye Cream MBA have others to use first.
Mitchum solid AP/Deo stick WBA HG 2 in stock + 1 in overnight bag.
2 Mascaras - I Bellapierre and 1 MUA WNBA, liked brushes to both, but not enough mascara came out somehow, so hard to get a balance, I hate gloopy ones that flood the brush, have opened a HG Lancome one:)

IN's from BS 40% offer
250ml Camomile Eye makeup remover. Needed
50ml Hemp Face Protector - another buy in the quest to find a cream that does not sting when I have an excema break out on face (I have spent a fortune and keep hoping that the next one will "be the one" :rotfl:
50ml Vitamin E cream - lovely surprise free gift at checkout:D
