No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries November 2015...

indiepanda

One final UU for the month - a packet of Garnier wipes. I had these so long they were no longer moist. I think it's handy to have wipes if freshening up make up before going out in the evening at work, but otherwise I'd rather use a proper cleaner with a muslin wipe or cotton wool.

Here goes with my November PP list - managed to UU the ones I have crossed out - it looks like I was a bit over ambitious but most of the things I didn't get through this month should definately be UU by the end of the year!

[STRIKE]Smashbox i-prime[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Boots No 7 stay perfect eye shadow base[/STRIKE]
Bare Minerals prime time primer
[STRIKE]Estee Lauder sumptuous extreme mascara (GWP)[/STRIKE]
Decleor aroma cleanse cleanser (50ml)
[STRIKE]Decleor aroma cleanse toner (50ml)[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Decleor 3 in 1 cleansing mousse (15ml) x 2[/STRIKE]
Lush bath bombs [STRIKE]x2[/STRIKE] x1
[STRIKE]Bare Minerals Moxie lip gloss 'big spender'[/STRIKE]
Decleor armoessence iris (15ml)
Decleor experience de l'age moisturiser (30ml)
[STRIKE]Decleor aromessence night balm iris (5ml)[/STRIKE]
L'Occitane shea butter milk soap
Benefit puff off (2.5ml)
[STRIKE]Liz Earle eyebright[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Gatineau floracil[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]Molton Brown amber coccoon hand cream[/STRIKE]

I also managed to reduce my stash

Bare Minerals Stroke of light - gave this to eldest DD as I find it is a bit too lightweight to hide my dark circles!
Boots No 7 highlights illuminating powder - too shimmery for me - given to DD
Clinique compact GWP - had this ages, found it whilst clearing a basket in the bedroom - binned
Boots No 7 golden globe eyeshadow - as above
Estee Lauder eye shadow trio GWP - as above
Boots No 7 360 mascara - as above
Jemma Kidd mascara - as above - think this was a magazine freebie
Smashbox lights up blush trio - colour didn't really suit me - binned (loving my new ruthless streak )

This brings my November 'Outs' to 23 so a really great start to the stash reduction.

thanks for both reviews dolly. I like the sound of glam glow but so many reviews say that it aggrevates sensitive skin. Whilst I don't have sensitive skin I don't want to shell out the price of this if it doesn't suit. What type of skin do you have?

Hi Valm - my skin is quite sensitive and I suffer from high colour but this is fine for me - I have only ever had freebies though as I have too many other masks to justify the price tag - when I get to the bottom of my mask stash this will definately be on my purchase list

Uus for November, need to reduce my stash further before I move house in February :

Boots Soltan spf Invisible spray - WBA for summer even though it's slightly greasy it is ideal for black skin as it does not leave white marks.

Boots clear mascara -TA to avoid re-infecting my eye as i had conjunctivitis. WBA.

Waitrose baby bottom cream

Rose water

Nivea make up remover wipes

Deodorant Sure anti stress - WMBA. Not sure it made a difference.

Evening all

Last few UU's for for me.

Garnier express 2 in 1 make up remover 125ml - WMBA as found this quite greasy and did',t always seem to remove everything.
Decleor arome cleanse 10ml sample - WBA this was always my go to brand but decided to try something else. Like the consistency although at the moment prefer a heavier cream cleanser.
Elemis pro-collagen cleansing balm 105g - WBA but have another 105g in stock. Love the smell of this and face feels really clean after using.
Avon grow potion - this really seemed to work on my nail but WNBA as they no longer sell this.

INs
Decided to get the Elemis TSV in both the Frangipani and Sweet Orchid.
Soothing Apricot Toner x2 200ml
Pro-collagen marine cream x2 30ml
Pro-collagen cleansing balm x2 50g
shower cream x2 200ml (1 each of Frangipani and Sweet Orchid)
body cream x2 100ml (1 each of Frangipani and Sweet Orchid)
hand & nail cream x2 20ml (1 each of Frangipani and Sweet Orchid)

This is not all for myself and some will be presents for later this month.

Looking forward to joining again next month so see you all in Decembers thread.
