No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries March 2015

Thanks Sundaysgirl for starting us off. I am in again.

Welcome Lunal.

My main aim is to not buy in March and to use 7 make up items completely by May, they are:

Elf Translucent Powder
No7 Mineral Blush in Rose Pink
Benefit Benetint - mini
CND Stickey Base Coat - not strictly makeup
Estee Lauder Double Wear Light
Bare Minerals Brightening Eye Primer

annoyingly I cannot remember the last one.

You have inspired me to try and UUS more make up as well as toiletries. Have pulled out my Bobbi Brown shell eyeshadow and clementine blush which I've had for years plus a mini benefit peach stain (can't remember the name).

I'm in again! I've had a pretty bad month with quite a few ins from eBay bargains plus an avon order. Although I managed to stay out of the shops due to working extra shifts, I've unfortunately nabbed a load of bargains on eBay. I will hold my hands up and say that nabbing a bargain and then getting my goodies in the post makes me feel a lot better about things. I've never hoarded so much since my parents split up, but I need to stop making excuses really :-(. My me time when I'm not at work is really having a nice long bath or a long hot shower. I love things that smell nice and I think I am a tad obsessed, if I think something sounds nice then I just have to try it no one will ever be able to accuse me of smelling bad but my stash is rather ridiculous. I'm hoping having joined this that it will help me to actively get stuff used up. Our boiler has packed up and I keep looking longingly at my bath bomb stash but luckily the new boiler arrives on Monday... I can't wait!!

Hello ladies!

last month ended up being a complete write off for me, but I am back this month with a new found enthusiasm for UUs.

Does anyone have any recommendation on swap groups or anything like that?

I am going to have a good old clear out and whilst some of them are definitely worth obeying/putting on local selling sites, some of them as lovely as they may be are just not going to sell well on them. Also lots of recently opened, used twice but just not the right colour that don't seem to sell well on ebay etc even when unopened (case in point Clinique pore refining solutions foundation in shade Alabaster)

Any help or tips would be gratefully received!

seasideDreamer

March already! I'm in ooh dear 2 INs Timotei Vivid Colour shampoo already, really needed these though.

asset2004

Hello and thanks for starting thread Sundaysgirl.

I'm back again for this month having trouble getting things to UU it can get quite depressing.
I do have 1 UU - toothpaste at BFs, have replaced another from the stash. I can't even remember what brand it is but it will definitely be used

Had a rumble through my gift stash yesterday and :eek: OMG I'd forgotten just how much stuff I had It's hard to keep boxes and bags looking in pristine condition when I've got it in bags in corners of the house.
Anyway I did manage to get rid of 5 BS products :T for a friend's birthday.

VALM

Hi ladies,

1 UU from the PP list which is the shower gel I couldn't remember the name of. It is Rusk Sensories Calm Body Wash. Pleasant enough floral fragrance. I think I have more of these in the stash as we were given three goodie bags full of them on the cruise.

asajj

2 INs - free Balance Me Body Wash and facial wash with Glamour mag. I will buy other 2 if I find them

momobingu

LH's can be depressing for sure, but I keep trying to remind myself that i should get joy from pampering myself with these luxury products.

I'm happy to kick off March with more GA's and UU's.

I decided March is going to be my perfume month so going to work on that stash first. Also, I've been wearing makeup everyday so that beautiful palette that I so didn't wan to touch is getting used, because after all...if you don't use it, it'll just go off so wasted money right there.

Items off my PP list and other stash items that I GA and UU -
UU - Chanel chance eau tendre
GA's - 2x MUA eyeshadows, 2x Mac pigments, 2x Orly np's, and 1 full size bottle
Sold off 2x perfume too
10 items total!
No IN's yet. I really want to buy a few things but holding off until I can't take it anymore haha

Kiss_Prudence

Thanks to Sundaygirl for getting us going for the month.


UU's are as follows:-


St Ives apricot scrub 150ml. Love this, it costs around £5 so very good value for money & lasts ages. WBA but not yet as I have others in my stash.


Mio dual action enzyme exfoliator. Did not do anything for me really and after I had finished showering, I could still feel the scrubby bits still on my legs and I did not like that. WNBA.


Neals Yard Frankincense hydrating cream 20g. Lovely stuff to be fair, however it was too rich for my face and caused break outs. Used it up on my legs with good results. WNBA


Body Shop Hemp Face protector 50ml. This was my go to face cream for quite a while. I do like it, but I'm fed up with it now. As it was old and I had half of it left I used it up on my legs. Already have another (old one) in stash, so may use this on legs also.


This month I am going to get together some items to pan in my bathroom. Will post my HIT LIST when I'm good to go.


Have a good day all! Its nice to be here again.

Long time lurker here! I've been following these threads for a while now although I've clearly not understood the purpose of them because I've been reading reviews and then going out and buying the stuff people have decided they WBA :rotfl:.

I have a ridiculous amount of toiletries, makeup, nail polish, etc to use up so I'd like to join if I can?

Well surely purpose is not to enable people Welcome

I must say I have found this thread very useful.
First of all it gave me the motivation to go through my stuff and tidy&throw away stuff.

Since I have started I have sold around 10 items on Ebay, threw away some creams that were now solid like a brick, gave couple of pieces to charity and more importantly started to use what I have.

It took me 2 days to clean up my stash and at the end I felt a bit depressed with the amount of goodies I have and the idea of money "spent" on them. It could have been used for something more useful instead.

However it is never late to join
