No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries July 2016

ChicaBonita

hey all, I'm back in for this month - was away from 23rd June so not been online much.

I have had some UU's already from holiday:

1. Dermalogica clean start foaming face wash 7ml - was fine as a morning face wash
2. Bioderma sensibio light soothing cream 5ml - WBA
3. Nuxe anti fatigue moisturising eye cream sachet sample - had one of these last year, liked it then bought the full size and disliked it! Brought it to UU
4. Radox feel refreshed with eucalyptus and citrus oil shower gel 250ml - was ok
5. Malibu 30spf lotion high protection water resistant sun cream - was fine for a suncream!
6. Bourjois volume one second mascara black - my HG, already had another in stock
7. Loreal elvive nutri gloss shampoo - WBA if I needed a new shampoo

I have decided to track my IN's from now on, so I can check I'm not buying more than I'm using!

Sorry, i know this isn't a place to vent but...

We had some roofers in to sort out our roof(something that should have been done months ago but the ringleader of the roofing company had been in hospital with septicaemia) yesterday and today.

Yesterday, the top of their ladder smashes through my mums bedroom window. Very annoying but they said they'd repair it and when they came back today they did.

Now after they repaired the window, they continue with the roof. They are working on the part of the roof over our bathroom. Where all of our toiletries such as shower gels, toothbrushes, toothpastes, lotions, potions, creams whatever you can imagine are.

Next thing, there is a massive, almighty bang, and then a load of swearing. Turns out one of the roofers, tools and all, came through the ceiling and landed in our bathtub, catching a lot of my toiletries and breaking some of them on the way down! :mad:

The ones that aren't broken have got this dusty, fibrous, insulation type stuff in them and i wouldn't risk it with them now to be honest.

So to say i am absolutely fuming would be a complete understatement! :mad:

Will post how my list of unnecessaries looks in due course...

Wilko skin therapy cotton pads
2x Simple eye makeup remover pads
3x Wilko functional face wipes
No. 7 soft and soothed toner
Simple purifying cleansing lotion
Nivea express hydration primer - TA. Binned this as it had been open for ages anyway and I just couldn't see me using it all up before it went bad.
FCUK for her
Impulse vanilla kisses - This feels very light now so expecting it to be UU this month.
Rimmel BB cream - TA. Been open for ages and started smelling funny. I had to start shaking it to mix it up before application.
Avon colourtrend black eyeliner - TA. Only ever used this once and it's been open for around 3 months now. Wouldn't risk it at all with eye makeup.
Avon supershock black mascara - TA. Same as above.
Ciate glitterball mini
Gillette shave foam - This is starting to feel light so hoping to see the back of this soon!
Dove firming lotion - TA :mad:
2x Dove shower cream - TA :mad:
Adidas firming shower gel
Carmex lip balm with SPF

Some UUs to report following my bath tonight:

Lush Big Bang bubble bar- WBA love the scent of this and the bright novelty design (smells like raspberry mixed with lemon to me - Like sweet raspberry lemonade). I put a bit of refresher shower jelly in a sieve with this and made loads of bubbles, although they do t tend to hang around long - not sure it's my water as I live in a hard water area. The bubbles were nice and soft though. And I felt more moisturised than normal when I got out of the bath. Got a couple more of these in stash.

Alberto balsam mango & passionfruit shampoo- WBA liked the scent of this and it did the job fine. The scent stayed in my hair for a while. This is a good consistency too not too watery. And a bargain price for how long the bottle lasts.

Alberto balsam mango & passionfruit conditioner- WNBA unfortunately whilst this had a lovely scent it was a really watery consistency and didn't do much for my hair at all as I felt I needed to use loads of it (my hair gets quite dry). I'd still use the shampoo but with a better conditioner.

Avon foot works ginger & white tea foot scrub 100ml- WBA smelled pleasant and did the job well. Nice and scrubby. I always have one of these on the go and I use it when I have a bath.

Westlab Epsom salts 1kg- WNBA think it was valm who mentioned these the other day - the post reminded me that I had 1/4 bag left so I used them up in tonight's bath. I'd completely forgotten about them. I didn't notice any affect from them in terms of stopping my legs hurting - I'm currently hurting still now and I think the only thing that will help is my painkillers! They took forever to dissolve too even in a hot bath which wasn't much fun to sit on! Some people have had good results from them I'm sure, but I didn't notice anything for me personally.

Need to go and trawl through stash in cupboard for new shampoo, conditioner and foot scrub now

Also I may or may not have some lush purple rain shower gel on the way from a lovely person who has picked some up for me from Oxford street - I am so excited

Gemma - omg I'd be fuming too!! Especially if it was my lush or tbs stuff that got ruined, I'd be on the war path lol!

Eep. Do you or the builders have insurance?

Gemzie121

I hope they had insurance!!

On the bright side though Gemma at least you weren't in the bath at the time :eek: (I'm finding the image of someone landing in a bath tub amusing)

gemma - how awful, hope it all gets sorted out.

VALM/Gemzie - I think you may need to use a full 1kg bag of the Epsom salts to get the best results.

I have some uu's

Lancome Bi Facil 100ml - this is good and I would happily use but won't actually buy.

Elemis Frangipani Body Oil 35ml - this is the last of several bottles of various sizes, I do like the scent but overall I am not that fond of body oils. WNBA.

S&G Mist You Madly 200ml - WNBA, this smells great when I spray it then when it dries the scent is gone so it is like wearing no scent at all. I gave the last 1/3 of the bottle to DD to finish.
