:eek: :eek: :eek: sales EVERYWHERE. Why are they so early?! :eek: :eek: :eek:
I had a quick look at the Boots site, felt my heart rate increase and closed the window. This is Day 1 of my No Buy. It's lucky that I started it early...
Two LHJs used up (this helps a bit)
Neo Stem Serum (30ml) - this was in a beauty box, eons ago. It was really nice but WNBA as it is expensive and I'm not sure if it's actually discontinued. Fingers crossed it was the Nuxe serum, not this, that was responsible for my unusually calm skin...
Lancome Bi-Facil (125ml) - this was in a Lancome giftset that I bought in the sales last year. WNB as it irritates my eyes (they're easily irritated so I'd rather use micellar water).0 -
I have another uu
Tigi Treat Me Right Hair Mask 200ml - WNBA although I do have another in the stash which I have put out to use. This does nothing for my dry, curly hair, the peppermint sensation is the only good thing. DD used this in the end.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

I just bought a pack of three Crabtree and Evelyn hand creams from the Boots sale which is impressive for me. I get through a tube of hand cream per week so I don't feel bad about it. I looked at the M&S sale and was very excited to see a photo of a L'Occitane giftset illustrating the beauty sale, but there is no L'Occitane stuff in the sale - grrrr!0 -

Well done for only buying what you need! :T
I love the Crabtree and Evelyn handcreams
It's a bit sneaky of M&S to use a picture of a L'Occitane giftset and then not have it in the sale.At least it saved you from another IN...

Happy Christmas everyone xxx
3 UU to report:
Handmade red & white soap- WBA if I knew where I got this from! Oh well. It was a handmade glycerine soap red and white and the scent was peppermint I think. It was nice to use, lathered well and didn't dry me out. I liked the subtle scent. Replaced it with a strawberry and coconut handmade soap shaped like a slice of cake.
Sensodyne gentle whitening toothpaste- Wnba this wasn't that good. Watery and didn't do that good a job for the money. My teeth still hurt. The repair and protect seems to be the only one so far that did what it claimed it would.
Superdrug pro care sensitive mouthwash- WBA HG. Will stock up when I go to superdrug again. This hasn't got a nasty taste and does the job well. Replaced with listerine gum protection one for now as my wisdom teeth have been giving me issues and mum suggested I try listerine.No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2015/2016/2017/2018

posh soap, tossed out, the box got moldy. i had it stored in a box and everything else was fine. So there it goes, keeping for good is a pure waste of money and goods.
out lip balm as it stung and lip liner that has turned to cement.
i looked at the sales and was tempted but resisted.0 -
