hedgesparrow - I've never heard of Perfume Clicks, I use Fragrance Direct quite a bit and they are very good - may be worth checking their prices too.
Ooh thanks for the tip Dolly, I'll check it out.
Some UUs to report for last night
*Lush Cinders Bath Bomb - WMBA - It was nice but maybe didn't have the wow factor some of my favourites do.
* No 7 Protect and Perfect Intense Beauty Serum -WMBA - I was quite impressed by this, I liked how quickly it absorbed into my skin
* A bar of soap that I think was the remains of Happy by Lush. I love lush's soap but at this rate will never be allowed to buy any ever again as I have enough for every week of the year and more!!!

Handmade moisturiser - despite being all natural ingredients it smelt like paint thinner. Not sure what happened.Grocery Challenge £114.22/ £1100 -

A tractor!! :eek: OMG really?? Not tried it yet to report back!
I have 2 x L'occtaine free gifts to report as INs, my BF went to the shop today, so he got one too!He's well trained! Nice tin, handcream is tiny but will be kept in my handbag.
Thought I might repurpose one of the tins as a toothbrush holder in the bathroom :TLife is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

Another unexpected UU! None for ages, then a bunch in a few days - typical :P
- Organic Surge Intensive Smoothing Serum - WMBA. Really very good! Very light, sinks in well, no sticky or greasy residue. I'm using alongside Organic Surge moisturiser and my skin has been really great recently. I like that it's so natural, and British too.
I'll try a different serum now and see if there is any change before I make any decisions - plus I have plenty of other serums to use before I need to buy any!
- also a small sachet of Nivea pure and natural body lotion, but too small to tell if it's any good...0 -
Used up a tester of clinique take the day off cleanser. it removes a lot of make up. But is it better than the cream cleanser? Not sure.
benifit moisturiser tester- wnba
micellar water finished.

UU:
Superdrug Baby Lotion 100ml - I would buy this again. I prefer this to Johnson's Baby Lotion.
INs:
Tanya Burr Nail Polish in Mischief Managed (£1 in the Factory Shop)
Rimmel 60 Seconds Nail Polish in 613 Midnight Rendezvous (£1 in the Factory Shop)
I haven't nail polish in my challenge as I like having lots of it and it doesn't take up nearly as much space as my other products.No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2019 Total UU since 2016 - 396 | Total February UU - 10 -

quick update before I go to the land of nod.

So body spray in Fab - WDNBA I hated this, have had this ages but didn't like the scent so chucked to the back of the wardrobe. Found it when looking for something else and realised I didn't have much left so finally used the last bit up.
INs, was my birthday yesterday and I got very spoilt.
Urban Decay eyeliner vault :j:eek::j
Daisy edt, body lotion and shower gel (this is lovely but not the one I prefer, my preference is the eau so fresh)
So happy with what I got and hoping that's it but still have some family/friends to see.

Belated birthday wishes. Am jealous of your UD kit. Have the Vice pencil and live how smoothly it applies. Will be looking to buy more of these eventually.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!

Have seen previews of both the new Essie and OPI collections and like one colour from each. Think I'll treat myself to these when released.
