No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries February 2015

Thanks VALM but though I love Philosophy I'm not at all tempted :A - in addition to the three birthday INs I have a full size plus a mini in an unopened gift set. As well as another 5 litres of various other lovely shower gels! Fairly certain this will see me through the rest of the year. I'm planning to save the Philosophy for a little while then intersperse it with my cheaper ones so that it feels like a treat.
It's a great price for the set, though I do baulk at spending almost £10 on a shower gel on a regular basis, regardless of size!MFW 2017 #123 2018: £1,852.64/£39,200 (4.7%)0 -
Just remembered another birthday IN - oops:
14/26. Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Anti-Chip Top Coat 13.3ml - hoping this will make me more inclined to paint my nails on a regular basis!

Very slow (as in non-existant) with UUs so far this month, but my shampoo bottle made a rather rude noise this morning so I suspect the next use of that will be the lastCheryl0

Few UUs for Feb:
PP Barry M Fuschia nail polish: WBA once my stash of nail polish is down to a sensible level.
One deodorant
Along came Betty Night shift face cream: Thick cream but WNBA as I felt it just stayed on my face and didn't sink in.
One in: Was kindly given a small perfume sample of Love Story by Chloe by a sales rep.0 -

1 UU, another Avon bath fizz. One more to go! I've really screwed up my maths yet again! I'm not quit sure how I've managed to come up with the numbers I have, but I know that I've got 54 products left in my stash.
I'm really lazy with work makeup and you can totally get away with it as a base with a teensy slick of another colour over the top0 -
I have a uu
Elemis Pro Radiance Cream Cleanser 150ml - WBA. This smells lovely and does the job, I would only every re-purchase on a very good deal though. I do have a couple of small tubes of this in the stash for now. I have replaced it with a tub of Emma Hardie Moringa Balm.
I also have two ins
Maybelline 7 Day Strong Nail Polish in Busy Blush and another in Purple Storm.
I did my nails in Busy Blush last night and they look lovely, I love these Maybelline polishes they apply really easily and last well.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

Had a TA last night got a tub of lush charity pot hand and body cream out of the stash, it smelt like putty or palasticne and felt claggy! It its defence it did say best before 2011 on the tub!
UU a tube of face cream I'd been sent to test and a small tube of sanctuary hand cream.SPC~12 ot 124

51) Black Phoenix Trading Post candle. Got another in the stash.
52) Black Phoenix tealight.
53) Body scrubbing puff thing. Was covered in dust after having work done in the house.0 -
I'm on a bit of a roll for February! This will stop shortly i'm pretty sure...

Lush yog nog soap - used in DS bath as he liked that it was 'slippery!' I have another soap in a different flavour to use up next for his baths.
Ren Rose otto body lotion - wouldn't go out my way to buy again, do love the scent but prefer it in shower gel form. It was thick and quite difficult to get out of the bottle.
Ren rose otto shower gel - WBA, got this in half price spacenk sale so was good value but wouldn't normally buy at regular price.
I'm giving away to my aunty tonight:
Molton brown templetree body lotion and shower gel - have tried but really can't get on with this smell. They're 50ml bottles from a larger gift set.
I've been using coconut oil to cleanse with for the last few days and i'm actually really enjoying it! I never thought I would but it's a really pleasant texture and smell and an all round nice experience. I also read about an apple cider vinegar toner to use after so i'm trying that too. It's 1 part apple cider vinegar to 2 parts water and so far it's not flaring up any redness so i'm hoping to keep going.0 -

I use coconut oil on my hair and love the smell and the results. I may try it for cleansing when I am about 96 as I may have used up my stash of cleansers by then. Where go you get your Apple Cider Vinegar from?Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler
