I have bought some mesh soap bubble bags and I am in love, I find that a lot of lush soaps don't foam very well, I also live in a hard water area that does not help. They work like a charm and produce loads of foam, the only downside is that I think I will get through soaps quicker but as I seem to have enough to supply my whole street with soap so I am not too worried about using them up.0 -
Decided that I didn't care so much for Illamasqua raindrops after I painted my nails so it's going into my donation box.
Painted my nails again - Tom ford nail polish, applied like a dream.
UU's: Lush Soaps: Parsley Porridge (wba) and YogNog (wnba).
IN's: My friends know how much I love Lush products and was gifted 3 shower gels. I have so much shower gel now haha
I took an inventory this weekend of all my bath, body, and face products and currently have 97.No buying toiletries challenge

I didn't know you could get these - where are they from? I have a chunk of newly opened Lush soap in my soap dish, but as it doesn't lather up well I tend to neglect it a little!0 -

Also, this tub got me to my five empty lush tubs so will be able to get a fresh mask for free next time. The challenge will be waiting patiently, using up the boring avon mask before I get a new one.
I love this mask too and have already hit pan on it. I got an email from Beauty Bay the other day informing me that they now sell nugg face masks am going to consider buying some. Need to weigh up how many uses you get out of each pod first.
Speaking of new items QVC are also premiering IT Cosmetics on Friday night. Was so excited when I saw the ad on fb as I would love to try the CC Cream however (guess what) QVC are not selling that yet! Suppose I should be grateful.@VALM - Thanks. That's really kind. I do like the odd treat and it's nice to live a little sometimes. When I get myself a beauty treat it's a wee pick up for me and I always get it offer.

I finally took advantage of the Soap & Glory clearance in Boots and got myself an Endless Glove Hand Cream for £2.25 today. I am pleased I didn't purchase the shower gel though it was very tempting - I always find shower gels the hardest products to use up quickly. I'm near the end of my Lush 100g one and it's lasted about a month so far.
When I was in Boots last week shopping the Clearance counter I asked why the Essential touch nail kits were reduced and was told that my particular Boots are not continuing with that line. As there have been a few people posting about finding S&G on Clearance I wonder whether Boots are to stop stocking this altogether. Maybe, the OOTW not being a sell out has been an eye opener for the brand.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!

So I have another UU from my Finish 7 by Summer challenge:-
Laura Geller eyeliner. WDNBA. I couldn't say how much of this product I actually got to use as it kept breaking. Have a black Urban Decay liner on the go and then after that have three more in stash (all black) : Sephora, Eyeko (this is one of those felt liners) and the new C. Rowley one that came this week. I also have an Avon felt liner on the go but am not sure I'll keep this for much longer as it is very scratchy.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

I have some uu's
Morocconoil Intense Hydrating Mask 75ml - this is really lovely, it makes my hair super soft and bouncy and the scent is to die for. WBA
Boots Extracts Cocoa Butter Body Scrub 200ml - WNBA, this is too oily for me, when I try to use a shower gel after nothing will lather at all.
VALM - I hope Boots aren't stopping selling S&G I really like a lot of their things. I think the problem with the OOTW is that people know it will be reduced soon after so they wait.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

UU L’Occitane foot cream 30ml Really liked this, its going on my Birthday list for October:money:Debt free and busy treating myself:)
No more toiletries/make up until I've used what I've got stashed since Jan 2011, graduated October 2012. Restocked Dec 13..damn those sales0 -
Few more UUs!
13. Model Co Volumeyes Mascara. WNB. Think this was a magazine freebie. It was ok but a bit gloopy.
14. Primark Sheet Mask. WNBA. Not keen on these. Don't know if it's just these particular ones or sheet masks in general.
15. Superdrug Vitamin E Body Butter. WBA. It leaves a slight residue but not sticky or greasy. Nice smell. Moved on to a mini Body Shop one next which has about a third left.
16. Lush 9-5 cleanser. WDBA. I really liked this. I inevitably end up with my eye makeup in my actual eye when I take it off and this seems to counteract any stinging. I might replace it when I go shopping on Thursday. We'll have to see how my willpower holds up!0
