No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries July 2017

One sample UU:

Paula's Choice Skin Recovery Enriched Calming Toner sample WDBA. This was lovely. My skin feels so hydrated and smooth. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a hydrating toner

Please count me in for this month, despite no updates last month I have still been following the thread and keeping note of my UU's. a respectable 13 knocked off the stash list

I pledge to do better this month!

when I take out make-up and nail polish from my stash the figures are starting to look manageable although a long way from my one product in Use and possibly one on the shelf as backup ideal.

I am currently resisting the urge to buy the L'Oreal Paris Elvive Extraordinary Clay Re-Balancing Shampoo and conditioner, due to the length of my hair (waist length) I find I get greasy roots and dry ends has anyone used this is it all hype? At the moment I have been wearing my hair up as the ends are so dry. I've also been thinking of having a good 12 inches chopped off the bottom to tidy it up. If any one has any other suggestions of suitable products, all will be gratefully received.

Forgot to add, my first UU of the month to report.

Manuka Dr Anti wrinkle bee venom sample - felt weird sensation when rubbing in & seems to have left a slight residue on my face which is now rubbing off. WNB

Hermia

UU La Roche-Posay Toleraine Ultra. WBA, but want to try something else as I am not in love with the texture of this.

I have tried it and whilst it is a perfectly nice shampoo I did not find it did anything that dramatic. I think maybe my roots were not quite as greasy, but not enough for me to go longer between shampoos. I was talking to my hairdresser about this and she immediately said 'why aren't you doing two shampoos?" (I don't buy my products from her so she wasn't trying to get me to buy more BTW). She said she advises everyone to do two shampoos unless they have short hair that is washed daily. I was sceptical because I have always heard that rinse and repeat was advised to sell more shampoo. I tried it and my roots definitely do not get greasy so quickly.

My Scores on the doors June IN 3/33, GA 0/5, TA 0/4, UU 17/60, no way that I will have such a good month again for a while, though, but must try and keep focused, I need to make myself use body lotion/butter everyday and be more consistent with richer night products:o

Thank you for the new thread I'm in and as usual have no list.
Had my first UU albeit a sample one ! Real Chemistry 3 minutes peel. This was really easy to use and my skin is glowing. I WBA but looks like it is hard to get hold off.

I also merged some supplements I had on the go so two bottles can be recycled.

1 IN I have is Grow Gorgeous Hair Growth Serum.

I'm still going with the stash I have from christmas. Just finished off my shampoo this morning.

June round up, think numbers stayed nuetral at 183 but not too concerned as a few INs were just freebie samples.

UUs
Max Factor - long lasting lipstick in Nude
Max Factor - long lasting lipstick in Red
I think these are staples so will prob repurchase
Baylis and Harding - mini bath milk - 100ml -bubbles didn't last, nothing special.

One UU from last night:

Paula’s Choice Resist Advanced Replenishing Toner sample WMBA as full size. I've still got a few toner samples to try, but I think it's either going to be this one or the Skin Recovery Toner I purchase a full size version of.
