No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries February 2016

evilsquid1603

Hello everyone!

My vegan kind box and love lula came so I have INs

Love lula was good this month, more lip balm but now I've taken one into work so it's on my desk I'm actually using them throughout the day and making progress on them so it will get used. Also another black eyeliner to add to the pile but I'll always get them used as well.

With the vegan kind, I gave the lipstick and highlighter to my mum as there's no way I'd wear them and was slightly glad to see the incense as it meant one less IN!

UU
Bobbi brown mini MUR, thought I'd start on these as I've somehow ended up with 4 from various gift sets and gwp over the years.

UU
Nivea eye make up remover - wba - very gentle.
Tesco baby wipes - everyday essential
Lush so white - I like lush products, this one was ok, didn't really smell wintery but was nice enough.
Skin wisdom youth protect eye treatment - wba - felt like it actually tightened a bit
Avon Bella perfume - Wdnba - I found this to be a very light perfume, I could barely smell it myself, felt like it was bland, nothing special.

TA
Boots hairspray- WBA - does what it says on the tin. Had to throw this away because I knocked it into the toilet - joys of being clumsy.

In
Johnsons Baby wipes. - everyday essential.

Proberly more to come, I expect I've got "lost" stuff stashed away which I will come across, I think it's quite a collection for someone who never wore make up which explains why there's so much of it I suppose. I haven't included hair removal in the list such as razors, shaving gel, cream.

Confession time: I have been lusting after the Guerlain Meteorites for months and since November have bought six other (bargain) highlighters as diversionary tactics. Yesterday (payday) I cracked and bought the Meteorites anyway (with a good discount code so could have been worse). Cross with myself! Better use and enjoy them when they come!

Guerlain Meteorites are lovely and they last ages! I'm sure you will enjoy them when they come.


I have some rather boring INs of my own to declare.
Mark Hill Only Takes a Minute Gloss Treatment x 3 (99p in boots plus 200 ad points! I can always find a way to justify these unnecessary purchases :rotfl:)
Garnier Toner x2 (plus they were giving away a free gift set in super drug when you buy two, it looks a bit naff but not counting it as an IN because it'll be given away)
Also got a few samples of the new YSL touch! !clat foundation - looking forward to trying this!

Have some UUs to update on the PP but will do them all at once after my trip away next week as I'll have loads to cross off then.

A few INs this week:

Figs & Rouge vanilla pistachio hand cream - came in my Blurt buddybox.
Two full size TBS testers - I managed to get one of the 50 open spaces on the free sampling scheme thanks to checking Twitter regularly.

Some UUs and an IN to declare!

UU:
- Percy&Reed Lovingly light foaming treatment mask. WNB. Came in a beauty box, but very unimpressed - doesn't feel like anything in my hair, and I think my hair is dryer than usual, which I'm blaming on this. Was using it up as a conditioner as I'd run out, and I wanted rid of this, but even using it frequently it didn't do anything for my hair.
- Philosophy renewed hope in a jar eye (sample). WMB. Really nice, absorbed well, rich but still quite light. One the nicer eyecreams I've been using, and even the small sample size lasted really well.

And an In
- Urban Decay Vice 4 Palette! Bought with the £10 off voucher in the MSE newsletter. I've been wanting some brighter, bolder colours for ages to complement my Naked 2 and Smoked palettes, and wanted to stick with UD, so I don't feel too guilty getting this - it will be used and enjoyed.

A few more Ins are en route, but I'll declare them when they arrive

UU's slow this month though I have quite a few spluttering, and a few tubes sawn in half!

GA to my DD21, who loves them...

Manhattan soft matt lip cream - dusky rose. Looked lovely in the tube, but once on proved to be too pale for me. Pale and matt on a 47 year old face I don't think is a good look. DD21 inherits her granma's Irish 'peaches and cream' complexion so it suits here perfectly.

Bourjois shimmering shine liquid eyeshadow - electric blue. Bought this last summer. Love the colour and it suits me but I have hooded eyes so couldn't get on with the wet formula and the resulting transference. DD21 is a make up artist and has the skill and patience to make this work for her - I don't!

Kate/ Catherine- I love the meteorites- they have a shimmer that a highlighter can't mimic. Green and purple, pinks ect to help with coloration issues They are wonderful. I have a box and have used the compact version- travel kits and limited editions. They are one product I can hit pan on.

DreamyP- Rather impressed finishing a laquer in seven months, they last forever as they are so pigmented. The only way to get the last bit out of treseme is a hack saw- you can’t open the bottles!

Evilsquid- the vegan box sound like you got some great products- It’s great when use a new item ASAP.
Coppers- The lost stash always makes an appearance- I have a stash of more products- somewhere- too. Little by little, it will be reduced, condensed and brought under control. Every product used up is a victory.
So I have no outs in the forthcoming- all the easy targets have been completed. It is difficult to justify all the products but it’s improving. I regard a trip to the bin as an excuse to use a lip stick- I think I can't regret the cost of an item once its paid for- but I can regret not getting use out of it.

@dolly84 I have the blue one too!


One more UU today...

8. Insette Cool It Instant Cooling Spray. It's just water in a can perfect to cool down in the heat.

Hey Magpied, I'm on the sampling scheme too and the last offer they let me know about was a body butter last month. I'm wondering if they don't open up the sampling to everyone each time :P
