OK totals time :-
UU 21
INs (gulp) : 36 however in my defence yer honour most were bought as gifts for Emma so not added to my stash. Of that number 11 items were items I will use : 4 X packs of cotton wool, MUA blush, LUSH Cup o Coffee and Mask of Magnaminty, NYX concealer, Benefit Goofproof eyebrow pencil, Essie top coat and Tarte bronzer. 5 items came with Birchbox. We're any of them necessary? Well, remember, the cotton wool and top coat were! I know Must Try Harder!
TA/GA: 5 - mostly TA nail lacquers
OUT (sold) 1 Tarte lipstick
I did UU an eyeshadow and bronzer though which I'm proud of. From my PP list I have the eye masks and samples left plus LE IBST but think this will be UUed today or tomorrow. And have UUed one item from 7 by Autumn already.
Fave item this month is the Benefit eyebrow pencil and Fail is Porridge soap which I love but can't buy due to drain problem. See you all in July. XBack 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!
