No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries June 2016

VALM

Another UU: VS hair colourant. Have one more in stash before I have to repurchase.

Have swapped the Angel perfume sample for a sample of Juicy Couture Couture La La for my PP list.

Been into Wilkos and bought Emma a replacement St Moritz mousse.

I have a uu

Leighton Denny Remove & Go - WNBA, the first one of these I had lasted ages but this one got sticky quickly and the foam started to crumble.

Hello all! I hope you all had a good weekend?

I have some INs, they came 10 days ago with my last delivery but I forgot about them until now! Apart from the shower stuff they are essentials as I am down to my last two bottles of 2-in-1 (I keep one here and one at my boyfriend's house) and they are so useful when I don't have time to do my hair properly!

Avon Naturals Golden Apricot & Shea 2-in-1 Shampoo & Conditioner 250ml
Avon Naturals Grapefruit & Passion Fruit Complex 2-1 Shampoo & Conditioner
Avon Naturals Mango & Ginger 2-in-1 Shampoo & Conditioner 250ml
Avon Planet Spa Revitalising Harmony Foaming Shower Mousse 150ml

Another UU p, tube of m&s spiced winterberry handcream, was nice and smelt pleasant but I have loads of handcream in my stash so won't need to consider buying for ages. Since I've started leaving one on the shelf by the door, one on my dressing table and another in my handbag they are getting used much quicker. The one near the door in particular seems to be fair game for anyone passing.

IKEA damage done so 19 candles in! Whoops! In my defence I burn candles every day and hardly ever go to IKEA so this will last me a while. Also, these were all either 50p, 85p or £2 so in the long run much cheaper than buying elsewhere.

Also an unexpected UU: Superdrug Simply Pure Hydrating Serum. WDBA. Lovely serum and very good value, it lasted ages. Will repurchase if I see on offer or once I've finished my Vitamin E one.
And a TA. I've given up on Hand Chemistry Hand Cream. I think it smells awful, isn't moisturising and leaves my hands feeling very tacky.

VALM I have used the NYX Badunkadunk Mascara for three days and I'd give it 7 out of 10. It's a very big brush and quite spiky. It does give a nice look; fanned out and good length. I did find it flaked a bit today but not over the weekend for some reason.
I'm really disappointed with the Over the Taupe eyeshadow I got at the same time. It's a lovely colour but very sheer and I'm finding it hard to build up so that's a bit of a shame.
My Tarte TSV dispatched today. So exciting!

UU's
17) WHP charcoal mineral mask WBA

18) cussons bath soak WNBA bought really cheaply as part of a set last year, nothing special but did make plenty of bubbles.

19) batiste 200ml WBA I get through these very quickly.

20) nSPA reviving sea salt scrub WNBA okay I prefer mine a little more scrubby but it was not too bad.

A few UU this weekend as hoped:
Soap and Glory mini Butter Yourself Super Rich body cream WBA
Elemis tranquil touch creamy body wash WNBA
L'Occitane Almonde mini shower gel WMBA

I thought I posted a UU earlier but I must have got distracted and forgot to press submit.

UU
Ted Baker Cate Eau de Toilette 10ml - I really liked this although it'd be £15 at full price. Luckily this was given to me as a gift. I've got another one in stash which was in clearance for £5. WMBA (but not for £15).

I'm making good progress on other products. Sadly I had some INs today. I got some reduced price Aussie products in Savers and Semi-Chem. There were a couple of hair detanglers which I miss using on my hair (they were £1.99 each) and a bottle of conditioner for £1.49. I'm sure I will make good use of them.

Thanks for letting me know re: the NYX mascara. My TSV is in transit too. I don't know if anyone else buys from QVC but there is a facebook page where people sell QVC items and it's set up for each TSV so if anyone wants anything they can post on there. I have sold the lipstick from the TSV on there. Just don't need another lipstick. Don't particularly want the eyeliner either but the page is inundated with those for sale. Worth considering if anyone is tempted to buy a kit for one item.

Have you tried putting a cream shadow under Over the Taupe to make it work?

Sadly more INs to report:-

Firstly the last Birchbox that MrM subscribed to has arrived. Contents are not bad and Emma has taken most of them to use:-

James Read overnight tan mask
Percy & Reed hairspray
Whish body lotion - this smells absolutely divine - is a body CC cream
Pop Beauty eyeshadow trio that I have kept
Paula's Choice oil mattifying moisturiser.

MrM is cancelling the subscription now. I did enjoy receiving the boxes in the post but for the most part I was underwhelmed and have stashed items that I've tried to sell on Ebay.

I also made an order to feelunique yesterday as Emma had run out of the Murad oil mattifying moisturiser that she loves. It's working well so didn't seem worth rocking the boat to get her to try something else although I've toldher to use the Paula's Choice one at night time to save the Murad one when it arrives. I had a 10% off code and as there was free delivery over £30.00 I let her choose another item which became two - a Lottie London nail polish and stick on jewels for her festival. Only came to just under £35.00 total.

I repainted my nails yesterday and had to touch them up this morning. Wearing OPI Thanks So Muchness. The Essie top coat in my PP list is now getting awkward to use as I have to tip the bottle so much to get product on the brush.
