No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries December 2016

Gemzie121

I have a few uu to report:

Loreal Elvive multi vitamin caring conditioner 250ml- WMBA this was ok and did the job well. Not my favourite scent though, it smelled very herbal.

Dove intensive repair hair mask- WBA when i can find it on offer again. This smells lovely and does the job really well, one of my favourite hair masks. I replaced it with a bomb cosmetics honey hair mask fron my stash.

Marks & Spencer extracts peppermint foot butter- WBA although think this was discontinued or in a gift set. It has a nice fresh scent and did the job fine.

Tesco fruity raspberry & red berries shower gel 500ml- WBA i liked the smell of this and it did the job fine and lathered up well. The bottle was a bit leaky but other than that i liked this.

I also GA my deodorant spray to my mum (the lidl cien one) so thats an out. I wasnt getting on with it as it was too strong for me and made me cough violently whenever i used it! Replaced it with a wilko deodorant spray from my stash.

Anyone getting perfume tomorrow from lush kitchen? Ive been waiting ages for rose jam liquid... May treat myself. Fingers crossed its not a super quick sell out!

Good luck Gemzie. All sounds very pro active and positive. Fingers crossed for you.

Have bobbed on as I have 2 UUs:-

Roger and Gallet Fleur de Figiuer shower gel. I got this in the Feel Unique advent calendar (don't remember anyone else saying they have this one so I'm pretty sure it's not a spoiler plus it was behind the first window). Loved this at first but feel it's overpriced as it did feel like it contained cheap ingredients - I got very big bubbles on my loofah which I think suggests it contains SLS. Not that I'm bothered by such things and it did not dry my skin out. Just don't think I would go out of my way to buy it. Would use another free one though.

Tarte Amazonian Clay Full Coverage Foundation. HG. Have a new one to open.

I can't remember where I posted my Finish 5 by Christmas but am pretty sure that my Benefit RSVP cream eyeshadow was included. Have not finished just yet but it will be gone fairly soon as I am now scraping product from the very bottom of the little pot. I need to go back to wearing a primer as this creases at the mo so I'm using Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Creme de Nude with this on top and then Laura Mercier Rose Gold Caviar stick on top of that. Love the look.

Take care all. Better get on. xx

I GA 10 nail polishes to the CS yesterday, I don't wear them so someone else may as well get use from them.

One GA:
Nivea Creme tin - I've put it in one of my gran's Christmas presents as she likes Nivea.

One UU:
Superdrug Dragonfruit & Vanilla shower cream WDBA. Such a lovely scent, and it's lasted a while with everyday use.

I watched a programme the other night, well caught the second half, and they were talking about soaps. They got a chap who would buy nothing but Molten Brown so they got a Molten Brown soap, a cheap looky likey and one they made from a recipe online. It was interesting that he picked the cheap brand first, the homemade one second and the Molten Brown one third saying that it felt cheap!! Just goes to show that it doesn't always pay to spend lots of money when the cheaper brands will do just as good, if not better.

Have just come back from shopping and hopefully have everything I want for Christmas apart from the things that will not keep until Christmas Whilst there I decided to get teachers' presents and needed four. Decided to buy some little votive candles for them but typically they were 3 for 2 so of course had to get 6 so have ended up with four votives I wouldn't have otherwise bought. Ok I could have just bought the four I needed but they were on offer :rotfl:

Two INs I forgot to report a week or so ago:
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%
The Ordinary Natural Moisturising Factors + HA

Both of these products are really great so far

So i have a confession to make, i will have an in soon, ive been very naughty and ordered rose jam liquid perfume from the lush kitchen. To be honest ive been waiting ages for this though, its one of my favourite lush scents and i cant wait to have it in perfume form. I did want to get two but cant justify spending that much so will have to just use this one sparingly and make it last

And i have a uu:

Glitzy glam berry bliss body scrub 50ml- WNBA the packaging was really pretty in design but unfortunately the scrub wasnt anything special. It didnt really smell much at all which disappointed me so i ended up using normal shower gel with it. It wasnt really scrubby enough for my liking too. Replaced it with TBS glazed apple body scrub.

Ooo I'm keen to know how you get on with these more long term they are on my mental wish list!!

I have a UU
Lush shampoos bar of mystery name, pale pink one. Had this a long time used half left it a while went back to it. It made my hair feel nice so WBA as these also seem to last well. Might buy a new one in the NY once I UU my current Aussie one.

My mini Clinique moisture surge is very low, so is a mini night cream and so is a body scrub hoping to use these up this month. Have other night creams and day creams on the go to tackle after. Still very much on the hunt for the perfect day cream. Haven't trialled the elemis one yet as using up opened things first (couldn't afford to buy if liked yet anyway).
