Afternoon all
Welcome to the thread chicabonita.
No use ups but lips are feeling much better since I stopped using the new benefit lippy so it may have to go. I'm still just using lip balm, I'll try another shade of lippy tomorrow and see what happens.SPC~12 ot 124

One UU this afternoon:
Pantene nature fusion oil replacement intensive hair mask- WBA but doubt I can as this was from pound world and they change their stock constantly. This was very good value for money, did the job well and smelled nice.
Postman delivered another in this afternoon too, Lush twilight shower gel 250gNo Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2015/2016/2017/2018

congratulations on your news Lou!
UU:
charlotte tilbury goddess skin mask - wba this does calm the redness down a bit.
skin and tonic cleanser - wba, this was a good first cleanse but i do need a second one as the oil tends to still feel like its lingering on my skin if i don't.
Espa shower gel - wba if in a set but not on its own.
Espa Body Butter - wba, this smelt really nice, was rich and actually sunk in quickly!
i have INs, had vouchers for harvey nicks and as elemis had a gwp on and i needed a cream cleanser anyway i thought id treat myself. all the ones i have are oils and too much if i don't have a second cleanse i stocked up on two elegies sets and got the GWP. also got a laura mercier concealer as the other i have one was just too dark for me and got the urban decay foundation as i had a £10 debs voucher.0 -
I had £40 worth of giftcards to spend in Boots so went in with hope in my heart of finding something nice.
I got some Time Delay wipes, 25 for £3, then sod's law, the pink packet of Lacura wipes for mature skin was in stock in Aldi, so I got those too.
Today's NBI was a wet n wild lipstick in Cinnamon Spice. Not really wowed by this, tbh.

Two UUs
Nivea Stress Protect Deodorant - my new favourite deodorant. Works very well, but I try not to think about how it works and the effect it has on blocking pores etc ...
M&S Apothecary Lilac and Sage Hand Cream - a Christmas gift, really nice hand cream, lovely scent and sinks in well.0 -
A couple of UU Burt Bees Lip Balm mango and Marc Jacobs so Fresh perfume. Nothing much else to report, I hope everyone's having a nice sunny weekend:jDebt free and busy treating myself:)

I have a uu
Rituals Mandarin Bliss 24h anti perspirant stick - WMBA, these are quite expensive full price, I only used at weekends as it is not up to the job for work days and stress but it is quick and convenient to use.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

.Elizabeth - I think I would be too scared to post my numbers on an inventory thread. Is 30 mascaras too many?????????:rotfl:
:rotfl:
That's the idea - to shock and embarrass us into buying no more!!!
I'm I'll in bed at the moment, but will get to the new thread asap.Elizabeth
Long-term No Buys: print books, make-up, art/craft items
Lost 8 of the 20lbs I need to shed:D0 -
I'm in again, of course.
Congratulations on your lovely news Lou.
Some UUs (and some INs) to start off the month:
UU:
Italian lemon soap
Hotel shampoo 30ml
Aromatherapy Associates rose cleanser 10ml (I think)
Now for the INs:
Dove sweet cream and peony shower cream 250ml x2
Tesco honey and cocoa butter soap
Garnier micellar water 100ml
Avon chamomile hair mask 100ml
Avon supreme oils shampoo 400ml
Nivea soap x2 (1 blueberry and one coconut and almond oil)
I will now declare shampoo/conditioner in/outs as although I had graduated in this area a long time ago, items are starting to creep in again. I have several opened bottle to get through before purchasing anything more.
I will be back later with this months PP list once i have finalised the last few bits.
Have a great afternoon all.0 -
A quick update on the £10 footcream, it greatly resembles a menthol heel cream I used from the poundshop years ago. I suspect it probably is.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage."
