No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries May 2015

I bought the perfume online. I bought a travel sized atomiser and the perfume refill and it was really good value. I asked if they had fragrance testers available and they didn't so they sent me sachets of body lotion free as a way of testing the other scents. They have beautiful gift sets and my order came in a really pretty bag. (I was really impressed with them!)

It's the kind of brand I'd keep my eyes peeled for in TK Maxx. I found the Frangipani and Orange Blossom hand cream there. Sadly it has lost its scent a bit (probably my fault for keeping it too long) but the formula is very nice - it's more like a body butter than a lotion but sinks in quickly. (I'm kicking myself for saving it for 'best' :wall:)

ETA: I found this in the sale section http://www.abahna.co.uk/sale-2/frangipani-orange-blossom-handbag-classics.html

It's a pain that the P&P is £4...

love the smell of elemis frangipani;)

I cut open the tube of sit tight last night as nothing else was coming out - there about a weeks worth left in notice done that. I can't believe how much was hiding In there going to be thrown away. It will all get used.

Hola Beauty Queens :wave:

I've had a root around and compiled my listy for this month.

May PP List

Superdrug Naturally Radiant Day Cream (rollover, spluttering)
Estee Lauder ATZ Eye Cream (spluttering)
Balance Me Cleanse and Smooth Face Balm (rollover)
Boots Time Delay Cleansing Oil
Estee Lauder Sumptuous Extreme Mascara
Estee Lauder Doublewear Concealer in 02 Light/Medium
Stila Angel Light Powder Foundation
Rituals Shanti Shower Oil
TBS Frosted Cranberry Shower Gel
Superdrug Skin Soft Age Care Body Lotion

A bit of a mix between skincare, bodycare and makeup, I doubt I'll make it through everything in the next 4 weeks but I'll try my bestest

I have also thrown together a makeup basket which I intend to use for daytime looks for the entire month:
Lanacane Anti-Chafing Gel (as primer) (don't judge me )
L'Oreal Infallible Foundation
EL Doublewear concealer in 01 and 02
Stila Angel Light Powder Foundation
L'Oreal GlamBronze
Benefit Coralista Blush
Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Taupe (for brows)
MUA Undress Me Too Palette
MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack
EL Sumptuous Extreme Mascara
Max Factor Glamorous Extensions Mascara
MAC Fix+

Hard to believe I can get that many products smeared on my face within ten minutes in the morning

Oh, and one TA, Barry M Lipgloss in 02 Toffee; somehow the threaded area of the tube has broken and the product has leaked all over my handbag :mad: I'm extra peed off as it was a lovely colour and smelled immense! WNBA for obvious reasons :rotfl:

Hope you're all well and enjoying the long weekend xx

Amber F swears by an anti chafing product as a primer - I suppose they are the same as a silicone type primer and probably much cheaper.

I have an in

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Romantic - I didn't know I could get this in this country so I snapped it up when I saw it.

Elle is for Living also swears by an anti-chafing cream (http://www.makeupalley.com/product/showreview.asp/ItemId=98437/Monistat---Chafing-Relief-Powder-Gel-/Unlisted-Brand/Primer/-Corrector). I found her via Kristen K (another of your recommendations) who is lovely. I'm feeling so inspired by the Project Pan youtubers I've even order a Sharpie permanent marker so I can mark my progress on things as I go!

Romantic is my favourite shade of Balm Stain

I hope you don't start stashing sharpies in lieu of beauty products!:rotfl:

I bought the lanacane gel after hearing great things about Monostat on YT, the formula is nice but getting the right amount on my face can be hit and miss. Too little and I might as well not have bothered, too much and it balls. But when it's Goldilocks it's just right That said, it was about £6 so no major :money: on dedicated primers.

getting-there-slowly

Some UU to report!

Avon anew platinum day cream WMBA - seemed to ball and if you got caught in the rain you could taste it ��
Avon anew platinum night cream WMBA - bit heavy
3 random ends of moisture/body lotion all from cheapy gift sets - used before bed last night resulting in a interesting mixed scent!
