Last UU for September, Clarins Beauty Flash Balm 15 ml. Loving this.
I have more in stash. See you in October!ally.0 -
My last UU for Sept and one from the PP: terra green hotel moisturiser
So that's two items left on the PP which I will take over to October.0 -
Last UU for September...
Simple light moisturiser mini - Wnba about time I was getting sick of this. Can't get any more out so chucked it. It's too watery and 'wet' feeling for my liking. I haven't reacted to it though, and I guess it has dove an ok job. Replaced with a body shop vitamin c one for now. I do have another stashed and it's a big one but I doubt I'll buy any more if this but might try the other simple ones at some point that have a thicker formulation.
Body shop jolly orange body butter 200ml- WBA although I *think* it's discontinued now. I really like the scent and it was a lovely thick consistency. Did a brilliant job. The tub didn't last me long as I slather it on. Doesn't matter as I have tons of 200ml tubs in various scents to UU :eek:No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2015/2016/2017/2018

[STRIKE]#1 Garnier Fructis shampoo [/STRIKE](Actually DD's, but like many young ladies she seems convinced the last 1/2 doesn't work!)
#2[STRIKE] Various bits of soap[/STRIKE] (french market, dove shea butter, Lush something or other, lost packaging)

# 4 [STRIKE]Garnier vital restore night cream[/STRIKE]

#8 [STRIKE]Paco Rabanne Black XS[/STRIKE]
5/8 hmmmm must try harder.
So glad the Paco Rabanne Black XS is done. It was a gift - but the scent wasn't really me.
I don't think I will move the Naked shimmering body cream on Oct PP list - with autumn - a lot less skin is on display so I may save it to finish off next summer.No buying unnecessary toiletries 2014. Epiphany on 4/4/14 - went into shop to buy 2 items, walked out with 17!0 -
Final PP
Not far off UU everything I wanted to, have UU quite a few more not on the list, and only INs for the month were ones I was happy to add (i.e. should get used soon), this thread is definitely helping me focus.:)

- Neals Yard hair wash (it's their base with some oils I've added)[/STRIKE]
Also today UU
- a travel size L'Occitane shea butter body lotion - which I MBA - it does the job and doesn't have a strong scent so would go with my perfumes. Got at least a year or two worth of stock of body butter and lotion to work through before I need to go shopping.
- an unidentified face cream - the label came off the bottle and it was from a beauty box rather than something I'd bought so I've no idea what it was. Fortunately it didn't feel like a HG so I am not cursing myself for not knowing what it was!
Thanks to all for birthday wishes and new job congrats, see you all on next month's thread x0 -
A couple of INs that I bought before my hols and forgot to list, will be used for hand wash dispensers.
1 litre Marseille Lavender liquid soap
330ml Marseille Lavender liquid soap
See you all over on the October thread.:DThe best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. (Abraham Lincoln)0 -
