1. Montagne Jeunnesse Pomegranate Passion Peel off mask
2. SJP NYC shower gel
3.Nivea soft moisturising creme (trial size)
4.TBS Shea eau de toilette
This was part of a Christmas gift, and was more of a musky masculine scent than I would normally choose for myself. The scent did grow on me, although as EDTs go the scent did not last particularly long. Reviews on TBS webiste suggest their other scents last longer. At £8.50 for 350ml (worst case scenario, there are always offers available for TBS) it is quite an affordable scent option.

Just caught up with last month's thread, can't believe that people put cotton wool down toilets :eek: I amazed (and also rather confused why anyone would think was ok
)
Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

Another UU
Nivea soft moisturising cream 200ml- Wnba although I have another in stash that was a gift. I prefer fragranced ones and I prefer the butter (thicker) formulation than a cream. It did an okay job just bored me in the end so I used the last little bit on my feet. It does make a great foot cream and I think I will use the other tub on my feet. Replaced it with a 'beauty blitz' winter wonderland 50ml butter which I think was from primark originally and on first impressions (tried a little on my arms) it's a really thick butter and smells lovelyNo Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2015/2016/2017/2018

First UU of the month: Jason Restorative Biotin Shampoo. Have already bought again. I was recommended this in my local health food shop and it does make my hair soft and manageable without weighing it down.0

I'm not going to do a PP this month, just try and use up as many things as possible before I start my ahem 2 advent calendars in Dec.
I'm averaging over one UU a day so far this month! Let's see how long that lasts.
UUs
Molton Brown white sandalwood body lotion I probably WNB for myself, but would ask for as a gift. I like it better than most of the MB fragrances.
Lancome Genefique serum 7ml WNB, I have used better, less expensive ones from other brands but if it came in a GWP set I'd be pleased. Now all out of day serum and won't be going out of my way to buy more.
Clarins multi-active day moisturiser this was a mini. This makes me a bit shiny, wouldn't be my first choice of day cream (I like a spf) but would use again. Still looking for that HG day cream.
Creightons Vanilla and Macadamia bath and shower creme WNBA, too sweet. I used the last of it as hand wash, which worked very well.
Lush Skydancer Bathbomb this was nice and it did sort of dance around the bath. I don't think they do this one anymore. The water went green, and it didn't have bits in it, which makes for less plughole fiddling afterwards.
Respect to the ladies cutting out cotton pads. I would like to do this but I am a bit addicted. What do you apply your toner with (if you use)? I avoid the toners with pump spray because I think it can't be recycled easily, do you use your muslin for it? Also, what do you take your toe nail polish off with?
I will still use a cotton pad to remove nail polish but that will be a couple of pads per week rather than 4 a day which I currently use. I will also stop using toner when I've used all the ones I have as I don't think it is necessary when using a hot cloth cleanser.
In answer to the other question someone posted - I only use my muslin cloth once then it goes into the wash.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

I have a uu
Sally Hansen Strengthening Nail Polish Remover - WBA, it does the job. I have replaced it with a Cutex one and that is the only one I have now.
Repainted my nails with Liz Earle Moonlight, a lovely blue, grey, very apt for this foggy weather.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

One UU Shay and Blue perfume spray I took it to pieces to get the last few drops out. WMB
Dolly84 I had the same idea and have gone for Rimmel Grey Matter on my fingers.0
