I love a goodie bag pinkfluffybabe what was in it?
I'm debating treating my self to a facial one day if I get paid a decent amount next time.0 -
1 UU-Lancome visionnaire nuit 15 ml. This was I think from my boots luxury advent calendar. I like it and I'm debating whether to buy full size. I only have one night cream at the moment (Liz Earle) and it is not as moisturising as I hoped.
I bought a Juicy Couture perfume set from TK Maxx, it was reduce to £16 and I like this scent.
Afterwards, I went to Boots but didn't purchase anything.ally.0 -

I'm debating treating my self to a facial one day if I get paid a decent amount next time.
It was body wash, lotion, cleanser, moisturiser from the Ila brand and a bag of those pink Himalayan bath salts.
I had a maasage and facial and both were excellent. Need to start using up my various masks to treat myself at home :rotfl:Not buying unnecessary toiletries 2024 26/53 UU, 25 IN0 -
Oh where has this month gone!! Have been away in my other home for 10 days, and have moved some items between the two parts of the stash. Will update my lists for April. Here's an update to my Feb PP list:
[STRIKE]1. Olay Total Effects moisturiser + serum (carried over from February)[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]2. Superdrug vitamin E leave-on moisture mask[/STRIKE] - don't like it on the face so using it on legs
3. Indeed labs Retinol Reface
4. TBS moringa body butter mini
5. Estee Lauder Perfectionist serum mini
[STRIKE]6. Simple KTS cleansing wipes
7. Burt's Bees deep cleansing cream
8. Nivea powder touch antiperspirant
9. Sure antiperspirant
10. Garnier Ultimate Blends oat shampoo[/STRIKE]
I would buy the Olay moisturiser again as I love seeing through the transparent dispenser how much is left... got other two Olay moisturisers lined up next but they are more expensive and the tubs are not see through, however when I hold them against light (or hold a torch to the bottom!) it kind of shows how much is still left...
I would NOT buy the Burt's Bees cleanser again as I couldn't stand the smell and texture in the end and actually threw it away with a bit still left in. Also, the Superdrug cream/mask worked well on my legs but that's it.
I hope everyone feeling down for some reason will feel better in April! I must say my current (relatively good) mood does not encourage buying, here's hoping it lasts.0 -
Here's my scores for the month:
UUs: 24
INs: 21
TAs 2
Not too bad this month, I just need to concentrate on using a few more products up next month.0 -

End of March already!
Few more UUs:
16. The Body Shop Ginger Shampoo WMBA. I'm trying to stick to sulphate-free shampoos but this does help with my itchy scalp sometimes.
17. Charles Worthington Moisture Seal Hair Rescue Masque WPNBA. Nothing special for the price and a tub only does me three uses.
18. Ikea Vanilla Candle WDBA
19. Superdrug Simply Pure Hydrating Serum WDBA
20. Ikea Grey Candle WBA
Only used up 4 of 10 on my PP list but fairly happy with the month overall.
So totals for March:
UU 20
TA 4
GA 7
IN 11
Started March with a stash of 455, now 435. Still going down!
I'm off work today so I'll get an April post up.:)0 -
