No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries January 2017

I will catch up with all posts later on but I should report some UUs before I forget about them.
Elizabeth Arden 8 hour hand cream, 30 ml. Nice enough but WNBA, I didn't like the after use feeling. I rarely like anything from 8-hour series anyway.
Smashbox Make up fixing water, mini. I like this and got a good use out of it despite its' small size. I might buy a full size later on but I have a Clarins one to UU first.
Smashbox Photo finish primer, mini. Again I liked it and used every day for around a month. I have some benefit minis and Max factor one to UU before buying a new one. MBA later on.
Clarins foot treatment cream sample. Lovely scent and texture. Not sure I'd solely pay for it though. There are other very nice ones for half the price. Also, this felt like a standard body cream/butter. I'd rather pay for something for "specialist".
I think I will include my supplements in this challenge too. While not all of them are beauty related, I do use a fair amount of them and need to be better at using them. I have around 10 different bottles around the house.
Have a good week everyone.ally.0 -

I was really looking forward to trying this but when I did my nails were a lot shorter. Today it looks better but I've applied ESSIE A Cut Above on top.Back 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!
