No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries February 2016

2 UU:

Alice + Eliza Apple & cinnamon hand cream 30ml- WBA sad this is gone but plenty more to be going on with, this is last years and now discontinued anyway I think. I loved the smell of this and the fact that even though it was a light cream it sunk in really well and did an ok job. Loved the packaging design too.

Mum pink roll on deodorant- WBA nice smell, does a good job.

Used up an eye shadow. I can't remember the last time this happened. The Number seven neutral is finished. I have three of the use up before spring completed.

I only have left Boo Boo bosom buddy
Eye brow pencil (about half left)
2 testers of double wear foundation and bobbi brown foundation. I have the mac nw 13 ww foundation finished, lancome and another finished.

Well done. I have got through three of my products too and have realised that blushers and eyeshadows are no mean feat to UU. The three I've got through are : Clinique Lash Power, Cargo blush and No 7 Highlighter. Of the remaining products I think I will only UU the mascara.

My LG BnB is very low. I can see most of the pan through the product. I'm thinking that I will try to UU my Bronze N Brighten rather than order a new BnB as it only gives a light colour to my face so should look alright at this time of year.

One more UU :

Bath and body works sweet cinnamon pumpkin body scrub. Was really disappointed with this. The product was very thick and dry so much so that I found it really difficult to squeeze from the tube. I depotted it and did scoop out a lot on each application just to get it UU. It didn't smell good either. Could not smell either cinnamon or pumpkin. It smelt strongly of orange. It actually was a bright lurid orange colour too so I wonder whether this made it smell orange! Not a winner. I only have two mini body scrubs in my stash now and when they are gone I'll be returning to my Lush Porridge soap.

I have a uu

No7 Eye Makeup Remover - I really like this and I currently have a voucher so may pick up a new bottle soon.

I repainted my nails last night with Barry M Raspberry. I am still struggling with peeling nails but think the polish protects them a bit, I googled it and it seems an iron deficiency is the cause, this fits as the last time I went to give blood they wouldn't take it because my iron levels were low. Coffee apparently stops your body absorbing iron - this may well be where the problem lies.

No real progress on my Feb PP list yet. I was sorting out some bags last night though and found my old gym toiletires bag. So a couple of INs for me.

- John Frieda Go Bloder shampoo (not much left in this, should gt through it fairly quickly)
- Aussie 'Beach Mate' 3 minute miracle treatment
- Body Shop White Mush shower gel (again, not a huge amount left)
- Fudge 'Ends' hair product
- Impulse body spray

The body spray is already in my handbag, and the others are in my shower - should hopefully get through them fairly quickly!

Another one off my 6 by Spring list – but it’s a TA. I was trying to use up the Ren lipbalm, but it split a couple of days ago, and has been getting increasingly messy ever since. I've also had horrible lips since the weekend (skiing – so got dry and chapped) and this was doing nothing for them at all, they've just stayed really tight and dry. So I binned it this morning and got out another lip balm, and my lips are feeling better already! Definite WNB (it was a magazine freebie).

- Maybelline dream matte mousse foundation
- Clinique Superpowder x [STRIKE]2[/STRIKE] 1
- Clinique superfine liner for brows
- [STRIKE]Ren lipgloss[/STRIKE]
- Urban decay original primer
- Barry M Chisel Cheeks contour kit

A couple of ins as well though!
- Tigi Dumb Blonde Reconstructor conditioner, very large bottle I'm actually totally out of conditioner (!), I've just been using up hair masks, and this is my HG conditioner, so this is an allowable in.
- Tigi Dumb Blonde Violet Toning Shampoo. Bought with the above from the same online store, as the price was so good. I’m almost out of my “Touch of Silver” toning shampoo, so this will be a direct replacement.

Now, bit of an odd one – it was cheaper to buy the conditioner above as part of a “tween” set with the matching shampoo than it was to buy it separately! (@£11.50 for the set, or @£14 for just the conditioner?!) So I got it with a large shampoo that I really don’t need. But there's a charity collection at work to help women who've suffered abuse, or been out of work for a long time get back into work, who were looking for unopened toiletries, smart interview clothes etc. So the shampoo went straight in the donation bin along with some shirts and stuff As it was straight in and out again, I'm not counting it, lol.

I'm using a Soap and Glory serum at the minute, but I think it might be bringing me out in spots! It's the only thing I've changed in the past couple of weeks, other than using some heavier sunscreen at the weekend. I've stopped for a couple of days then I'll try again.

Did you mean "Musk"? :rotfl:

It's ok I know I can't point the finger as I only "proof read" what I have typed on my iPad after pressing "Post". Predictive texting eh?

1 UU:

I love... Raspberry & blackberry body butter 200ml- WBA nice scent, sunk in well. Not as thick a consistency as TBS but very good at its price in fact a bargain managed to get it for £1 or something silly in boyes. Wish I'd bought more actually at that price but I have a ton of butters anyway, and another of these stashed that came as part of a gift set. Got a few other scenes by this brand to use up too, cherry almond, lemon & lime and peachy passion fruit I think.
