No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries September 2015

I don't think it is functioning:(
Just had a quick look - there were only 2 posts in 2014 (Jan and May) and none in 2015, so think it's pretty dead
I guess it could be revitalised if there was enough interest - it looks like any current member can add new members (from a quick investigation on my phone) but those members would have to be FB friends. It's listed as a 'secret group', and I think only the original admin could change that.
Edit: or a new 'private' group could be set up if the demand was there - then anyone can add anyone, or request to be added, without being FB friends, but it's not open to the general public...0 -

Alterna travel size shampoo and conditioner - WBA, both were good and my hair seemed to like them!
Nuxe - travel size serum and hand creme - WNBA, Nuxe aren't cruelty free.
My Little Beauty body lotion - can't buy again as they don't ship here but this was actually ok, was a gel rather than creme.
Origins sample size ginzing eye cream - previous HG but found out Origins are being sold in China so no longer cruelty free

Hello ladies.
UUed another sachet of L'occitane Divine oil yesterday. Really love this product.
Received a sample of the new LE serum in the post so will try to use that tomorrow morning.
Did buy a new eyeshadow brush at weekend from TK Maxx but it was only £3.00. Got it for applying shadow to my crease. It's worked well too. I'm presently using Naked 2 loaned to me by Emma but am not sure about all the colours. Some are very sparkly and heavily pigmented whereas I have sparkly ones in my Smashbox Full Exposure pallette that are not.
Repainted my nails yesterday and am wearing OPI You Don't Know Jacques.
Morning all. So another L'Occitane Divine oil sachet has gone. Will need to pull my stash drawer out and see if I have more.
I also tried the LE sample this morning and it's got a lovely creamy consistency and pleasant "green" smell. Think I can squeeze another use out of it tomorrow.
Another UU : Gok Wan Rose Oil Shower Cream. I think I must have put this back in my stash half used up as it's only lasted a week! This range has been discontinued now? I didn't like any of his products that I tried so not sorry about that.
I compared my new Essie With the Band colour against the OPI Off With her Red limited edition red that I love and although it's similar the OPI one is more of a tomato red and the Essie is more ketchup coloured if that makes sense? lol. The hunt continues for the perfect dupe.evilsquid1603 wrote: »IN

Will check this one out when I'm in the US though at the moment I'm thinking I may get a Buxom set as you can customise the colours.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!
