  • Two UUs today:

    Sanctuary Luxurious Body Butter 300ml: I love the smell fo Sanctuary Products but there's nothing special about this body butter! WMBA if part of a set.
    Herbal Essences Clearly Naked 0% Parabens or Colourants Dry Shampoo 65ml: This was nice enough but the very last amount wouldn't spray out which was annoying. Still prefer my HG - COLAB. WNBA.

    I've stocked up a few necessary items in Savers

    Ins:
    2 x Cortex anti-bacterial handwash
    2 x Nivea anti-perspirants


    Uus:

    Holland & Barrett Lavender Pure Essential oil - WNBA - Lasted a long time but was quite expensive.

    My PPs are:

    Boots No. 7 coral lipstick
    Savers Shea butter hand cream
  • Some of the stuff I bought for holiday didn't last long. Got used at least, which is good!

    Sun Swim Gym 3-in-1 - UU
    La Savonette soap bar - UU (this was a gift, no idea where to buy this)
    Next Just Pink perfume - UU (lovely scent, would buy again when I'm low on perfume... I've got about 6 bottles to use up first though. I get through 2/3 bottles a year, so it's not an excessive collection!
    1 nail polish - Collection 2000 - tried it again and wasn't opaque enough for my liking, very streaky, so chucked. It was called antique coral and had glittery bits.
    Boots conditioning nail polish remover - UU
    Canature hand cream - UU (very bad packaging - cream spurted out the bottom)
    Original source watermelon shower gel - UU - love this scent!


    Quite a few things I had stored have been opened, so I've got much less in storage now. Also got a few splutterers on the way. Generally using a lot more of my products now, which is great, and switching up looks with lipstick.

    Good morning ladies. Another UU:

    Huge tub of Soap and Glory Breakfast Scrub. Think this came in the kit at Christmas. WNBA unless it was in another kit. Not a huge fan of the fragrance and prefer Sugar Crush. Have a bar of Lush Porridge to use next and then no body exfoliators left. I do love Porridge though.
    Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

    Few UUs:

    Grace Cole glamour foot lotion- Wnba wasn't anything special, and didn't leave my feet any softer.

    Imperial leather sensitive shower gel 500ml raspberry & lime blossom - liked the scent but did get bored in the end. WBA though. Lasts for ages was a LHJ. Got another stashed.

    Dove original deodorant - this was the large can and another off pp list. WBA it lasted for ages and does a good job.

    I have just been to Boots, with offers bombarding my phone and having vouchers, points to spend and triple points to collect.

    Found myself looking at everything with dismay :eek: and my actual plan was to spend enough to get triple points. Spend half an hour in the store and just left without buying anything.

    Bought a Big Issue instead and come back to the office.
