1 UU to report
2/2 300ml Molton Brown bath & shower was a gift, would use but not buy for myself. Replacing with a Gatineaua scrubby shower thing.The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. (Abraham Lincoln)0 -
2 more UUs today: 2 x L'Occitane Almond body lotion sample sachets. This product was absolutely gorgeous and I'm thinking of purchasing it. Maybe I'll get some for my birthday as a treat to myself next month.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!

UU to declare: Imperial Leather Fruit Salad shower gel 250ml- WBA when the stash has shrunk. Love the smell and price of these shower gels. The marshmallow one is scrummy too.
That's another item I can tick off my PP List. The benefit eye cream on the list should also be done either tomorrow or Sunday. I need to find where I posted my PP List so I can get the satisfaction of crossing the UU items off!!!
Received a MAC order I made yesterday, but that's make up, which I'm not counting in this challenge yet. I got the MSF in Lightscapade, and it is lovely for giving the skin a lovely glow without the glitterball effect. Also got an eyeshadow and concealer, but it's the MSF that was the star for me.0 -

That's my PP list updated. Hopeful I will have everything UU'd by the end of the month. Then will make a start on some LHJ's for what's left of this month, to give me a chance of using them up in Feb!0 -

That's a good idea to use up LHJ's once your PP list is gone. Think I'll copy that, if you don't mind.
I googled the MSF too. Looks lovely. I think I was going to buy one of those at Orlando Airport on our way back from our hols but the MAC stand was useless and had very little stock. Like the look of Soft and Gentle. I'm sure Emma has one of these. Must borrow it to have a dabble.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

Please feel free to "copy me". I've got loads of items that I know will be LHJ's, the big pump bottles from S&G etc, so it seemed like a good idea once I've hit my targets for the month, to make a start in tackling those beasts! :rotfl:
Soft & Gentle is gorgeous too, and it was so difficult for me to choose between the two. That will be next on my wish list I'm sure. My skin is so dull and lacklustre at the moment. I've been really unwell with a chest infection, and have barely left the house all week, and I've not eaten well either. The result is I look like the walking dead. I'm pale and flaky at the best of times, so I'm really battling at the moment.0 -

So tonight I asked Emma for my brown mascara back. "Can we trade it?" She asked. Then the gold tin came out (you know the Marcellus Wallace tin) and I saw 3 of the MAC MSF powders in there. The Lascapade one which is lovely IRL, Soft and Gentle and Global Gold. Very similar to the LG highlighter I have so I have traded for the Stila in the light pallette! I have also tonight depotted the No 7 highlighter as the brush applicator had got so clumpy and having cut the tube open it was going to dry up. I also found a small tube of the L'Occitane almond body lotion in my stash (probably 50ml).Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.
