No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries January 2016
Comments
-
I love that Burts Bees hand cream too, it smells like almond croissants.
I have a uu
Elemis PCMC 30ml - I have used a lot of pots and tubes of this now (all GWP) and it has grown on me although it is not rich enough for me in winter (and I don't have dry skin) so I have to use an oil underneath. I have more of it in the stash to use before I think about buying but in all honesty the price of it puts me off.
TBH dolly I think the only cost effective way to buy PCMC is via QVC within a TSV offer or if Instyle ever feature it as a freebie again.
My current tube will run out today too I think.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!

my updated PP and finish 6 by spring lists.
Well done on finishing one of your 6 by 6. My Clinique mascara is starting to feel dry so hopefully that will be gone soon. The Cargo blush is driving me nuts. It will not end. May post a photo of it!
Another UH today : Biore Pore Unclgging scrub. I cut the tube open today and slathered it on cos it has been lingering around for too long. WNBA. This was Emma's product. It is rare that she uses a facial exfoliator and I have at least 3 in my stash (from memory). I am still using LUSH Cup of Coffee on my face and have at least 3 body scrubs in my stash. Will dig one out tomorrow.
I'm hopeful also that my bottle of Boss Woman will run out over the weekend along with my tube of Liz Earle hand serum. I have developed dry patches on my arms and applied some of this to my arms last night and this morning and it is so soothing.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

Lush valentine ballistic

One more UU this week.
7 Rimmel Scandal'Eyes Waterproof Kohl Liner Nude 5 . Used it as a base for eyeshadow. WNBA. Noticed this eyeliner doesnt have the liner part till the bottom but has a little bit of soft plastic and then its completely hollow.0 -
Couple ofUU for me this week
No7 lip laquer in hot chilli I really liked this but have tonnes of lipsticks/glosses to use up so will buy it again if it is still around by the time I finish the others. Happy with this UU as it's one of my PP for spring and also a PP for January - yeh:j
Radox shower gel mango (can't recall the proper name) WBA has a really refreshing smell and I like the lather with it. Have a couple of shower gels to use up and some others I would like to try before purchasing this again.
Right off to town to get some shopping and try to resist beauty buys!!0 -
Couple of UUs
8. REN Evercalm Global Protection Day Cream mini WNB
9. No 7 Beautiful Skin Hot Cloth Cleanser - WBA but already have 2 in stash. I like cream cleansers, am trying a 30ml Vichy one next.
Also a TA
1. Primark He Loves Me edt Rollerball - this just had no smell at all.
SOLD
1. Moroccanoil Hair Treatment. Got this in the LF advent calendar. It's meant to be good but I just don't get on with hair oils so sold on eBay. Got some other stuff to list.
My Makeup Revolution order finally arrived, placed it ages ago, so a few INs from their sale.
11. MUR Liphug When you come to me.
12. MUR Disappear to the Beyond Palette
13. MUR Beach and Surf Palette - these palettes are so dinky and cute
14. MUR Radiance Highlighter Palette 'tester'. Didn't order this, just arrived with the order. Apart from it not being retail packaging I can't see how this is a tester, it looks full sized!
Wow, Eyebright, your win just keeps getting better!
Everyone seems to be doing so well with UUs, it's very encouraging0 -
eyebright that win is amazing!
if anyone is looking for a good beauty book, Dita Von Teese's is genuinely the best I've read. knocks the Bobbi Brown ones completely out of the park and the only other one close to it is the Sali Hughes one!
UU:
Garnier micellar water - WNBA, this just doesn't get my eyeliner off without scrubbing or using loads of it.
i have INs, my love lula box came and there was a hand cream in this months the vegan kind box. I'm now officially drowning in hand cream so this will be UU as a body lotion instead. happy that the Madara moonflower tinting lotion was in Love Lula, I've been wanting to try it for ages!0 -
Thanks everyone, I can't wait to UU my current cleanser so that I can't try one of my "posh" ones!
:D
Have a UU to declare and it's on my January PP list too. Only 2 things left on my PP list for this month now, and both should be gone soon.
UU Girlz Only Dry Shampoo- WNBA- didn't really do much for me! Prefer the Batiste dry shampoo.
One of my 6 by Spring items is probably about to get binned! I've been using an illuminating primer 20ml sample by Monu, but it's drying my skin so badly and my foundation looks awful on top of it. I hate throwing things away but it really isn't working for me. My black eyeliner pencil in that project is almost gone now though, which I'm pleased about. Need to use the lipgloss more if I want to get it out of my collection by spring though!0 -

Is it good for more natural looking girls? I love Dita so I was looking at it on Amazon, but didn't buy as I was worried it would be aimed at women who like really full-on make-up like hers. I don't want a book about how to do red lips and heavy black eyeliner!0 -
