No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries in January 2015

dolly84

lankygirl - what a lovely list of lip products. You must (like me) wonder how you will ever finish them.

I cut open my tube of Porefessional this morning, it is one of several mini tubes of which I have never purposefully bought one, there is a ton of it still in the tube.

I also cut open the kids Nivea Soft which they use on faces, hands etc.

I forgot about the Boots sale and then remembered this morning, I don't think I have ever bought anything when it gets to this stage, I am definitely not one for getting up at 5am to buy anything let alone toiletries.

Pirateyqueen, my Calendula cream arrived this morning, it is lovely to use, rich, but not greasy and seems very soothing, I have used it twice so far today. Thank you very much for the recommendation:A

I'm so glad you like it, I always get nervous recommending products to people incase they don't like them!

1 UU, Cien Hand cream – WNBA, doesn't feel too hydrating.

Dolly84 Thank you. Yes I'm sure even with several applications a day i'm going to be stuck with them all for years - keep forgetting I only have the one pair of lips!

Still no more INs to report and successfully avoided the boots sale (I woke up too late and it was all sold out!). Got a few splutterers so hopefully those will be done by the end of the week.

Finally have a couple of UUs to report

An individual mud face mask in Superdrug packaging. Looking at their website this particular one has been discontinued, so I couldn't buy again even I wanted to (don't think I would have, but I have another in stock). This was in my 'new' stockpile due to being a one use packet.

Immac Hair Removal Cream. Would buy again if I found it as cheap as some of the alternatives, but not a 'go to' brand. Replaced with a Superdrug branded one from my 'already opened item' stockpile.

Feeling quite proud of myself this morning. All week I had planned to go the the B00ts 70% off sale, despite having more toiletries than you can shake a stick at. Well after having a think whilst laying in bed, I really couldn't justify potentially being in a situation where people are going to push, shove and be selfish all because there are some reduced smellies. So I decided not to go and although I hate missing a bargain, I don't NEED anymore toiletries! So that money will now go on paying our holiday off

I hope you are all well, and if anyone did take a trip to the sale, I hope you stayed safe and got everything you wanted!

I just popped in to say almost exactly the same thing Proud of myself for not succumbing!

Glad to say that I managed not to buy either, saying that I bought loads earlier this week
A few more outs
Sanex zero 250ml shower gel WBA I love sanex - got about 5 more sanex bath products in the stash pile
Opi holy pink pagoda - nice colour
Barry me changlaing? Purple nail polish - went gloomy
Leighton Denny green nail polish - not a big fan of these

What feels better for you ladies?

Splutterers or In's? I think I'm in a good mindset where splutterers and out's are just as exciting now as IN's.

Hi ladies. A whole bunch of things got finished off last night and this morning:

Sisley Radiant Express Mask 10ml - I got 5 uses from this little tube and it was nice but there is no way I will pay their ridiculous prices.

Gok Gorgeous Body Lotion 50ml - the last one, WBA if I could.

Gok Gorgeous Shower Scrub 50ml - have a full size of this in the stash.

Aromatherapy Associates Support Equilibrium Bath & Shower Oil 7.5ml - I got 5 baths from this using 2 caps full at a time.

Elemis Pro Intense Night Cream 15ml - WNBA, this didn't do anything special and this tube only lasted 2 minutes in comparison to 15ml of the Ren Frankinsence night cream which I love.

Rituals Rice Milk & Cherry Blossom Foaming Shower Gel 50ml - this is one of two cans I got in beauty boxes, it is nice but I don't think the gel is quite as luxurious as the Imperial Leather one which is much cheaper. It smells lovely though.
