No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries May 2015

Sundaysgirl

Welcome Ailurophile and rdone!

Hope everyone had a lovely long weekend.

I have a small UU:

1/73. Mark Hill Straight-a-holic Straighten Up Cream 50ml - this came in a set with shampoo, conditioner and shine spray (which I'm yet to start on) and I was impressed with this and the S&C - definitely left my long fine hair more manageable and under control, so WDBA.

A couple more items are spluttery so more news soon hopefully!

hello

UU's/GA's to declare:

MJ perfume
Lush Dirty solid perfume
Lush bath products: 5
Lush tender is the night massage bar

Made myself a makeup stash to take with me everywhere to help hit pan on some items.

Hello everyone!

I have three more UUs. This is turning into my most productive UU month ever but that is because I've targeted lots of splutterers...

Crabtree and Evelyn Hand Therapy in La Source (25ml) - WNBA. I didn't enjoy this scent as a hand cream which is weird because I like it as a shower gel and body lotion :huh:

Revlon Photoready Perfecting Primer - WBA as it's my HG primer. I love this so much that I even forgive the rubbish packaging (the pump stops working whilst there is still a lot of product left so you have to break into it and then it's a real pain to UU)

Forever Living Aloe Lips with Jojoba - this was a gift and I really liked it. WBA once I've worked through other balms. Somehow it was lightweight but really moisturising.

One UU:

Liz Earle cleanse and polish - WNBA - Although didn't dislike it entirely I wasn't keen on the smell and i've used better cleansers so wnba in a hurry though may go back to it at some point in the future.

One GA:
Lancaster Clements Ribeiro perfume - got from TK Maxx on a whim and don't really like the smell so given to my friend who is into sweeter perfumes than me.

I've been having a clear out and found 2 Lily-flame candles that i'd forgotten about. One is lavender and lime and the other is warm welcome...i've got warm welcome going at the moment and it's really lovely. I'm a sucker for scented candles but then hardly ever use them...daft really but I don't ever seem to be in the same place long enough to leave them going!

Off to Bicester village outlet tomorrow (woohoo!)

Something I forgot to ask the other day. In a few weeks I'm getting my dark blonde hair highlighted, I'm aiming to go light/medium blonde. Does anyone have any good recommendations for hair products to add back moisture and keep the colour in good condition? I used to use box dyes but last year my hair started turning stringy, since then I have been growing the colour out but am desperate to go back blonde!

I use purple shampoo, currently Daddy-o from lush but have used touch of silver and bleach London in the past and also have a 1 litre size of elasticiser which I use once a week.

Any suggestions appreciated!

So I was going to look at all of the products I have over the weekend and do a proper sort but then when I got home from work on Friday my BF asked me marry him so it turned into a celebration instead!!

I do have my very first UU to report though... A soap and glory body wash that I had for Christmas.

Yay! That's one less to count...

I was going to recommend Elasticizer but you are already doing that. I really love Macadamia Oil Deep Repair Mask but it is expensive, the results are amazing imo though.

I have a uu

Dove Invisible Dry Roll on 50ml - WBA, it did a good job and didn't mark my clothes, it lasted forever too.

Congratulations rdone!

A few UU to start May off...

Pears soap, this has been stashed for years, why? I have no idea. Nice enough soap.

TBS candied apple shower gel 250ml. Really nice, lots more SG in the stash to get through though.

Lacura night cream sample sachet 10ml. A bit heavy for my skin and took ages to use up 10ml!

Dr Organics manuka honey hand and nail cream sample sachet. This was lovely! Will try and remember to buy this when I have finished all of my hand creams.

Have a good day all!

Few UU:

Cien flower roll on deodorant - WBA I like the scent and it does a good job.

Boots extracts mango sugar scrub - WNBA LHJ didn't like the scent in the end, it went a really strange smell. It made my arms sting as well for some reason. Glad it's used up!

Malin + goetz moisturizer mini - WBA if on offer, it didn't make my face feel greasy. And it lasted for ages.

Boots flirty body spray - WBA like the scent.
