No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries July 2017

Hermia

Some UUs

Scottish Soap Co soap - lovely, WBA.

White Linen perfume - this was a gift, but WNB. It was way too strong and reminded me of old ladies.

Patisserie De Bain Cranberries and Cream body lotion - WNBA as it is really hard to rub in.

WJN222

UU 14: Elemis Fragapanni Body Balm - lovely lovely lovely - happy to use when coming in a set but ot sure I would purchase on its pwn

VALM

UUs:-


75ml M&S Lavender shower gel. Nice. WNBA probably. Have a big stash of shower gel.


L'Occitane shampoo. WBA when I put in another order with them.


TA : Mini Bottle of Sephora by OPI How Cute is that

A few UU's to report

Superdrug spearmint & sea salt shower gel - WBA, cheap cheerful & does the job.
Superdrug Raspberry ripple showergel - WBA but not for a while the sweetness of the smell starts to grate after a while and now I need a change.
Manuka Dr Face mask sample - wnb it was more like a cream than a mask and it didn't seem to do anything noticeable to the skin.

Found a lush tub with a long forgotten about piece of karma shampoo, my hair has not seemed as greasy, although I'm not sure if its just a case of the change in brand/type of shampoo rather than getting to the roots of the issue.

Uus:

Crabtree & Evelyn Aubergine nail polish: WNBA, expected better for the price.

Mamado Aromatherapy 100% Pure Coconut Oil: WMBA, was experimenting between this and Rosehip oil. I think Rosehip oil is better for my skin.

Moschino Toujours Glamour body lotion: Included with perfume. WNBA, very watery.

Two UUs from last night:

The Body Shop Camomile Cleansing Butter 90ml WDBA. This is amazing. Definitely buying again and have. It's lovely and gentle.

Paula’s Choice Calm Cleanser Normal to Oily Skin sample WMBA as a full size. This was nice and non drying, which is surprising.

I'm on a roll with using things up this month. I know most of them are samples, but I've got a lot of full size products that are going to be finished this month.

Hi all,

God really didn't stick with this did I! Also sliggghhhhhttttllllyyyt falling off the wagon and feel old bad habits of shopping during times of change, or times of feeling low, creeping in.

Some ins
Samples:
Random TBS shampoo
Chantecaile (sp?!) clay mask
Laura Mercier Candlelight Glow Foundation

Bought:
Above foundation, sample was so could try first
Nuxe tissue of cleanser to remove my makeup
A random longwear L'Or!al lipstick I did not need and I regret a bit as now not sure of the colour, swiped lovely and lasted for so long on my hand thought it would be good
Suncream

I have UU
The mask sample - WNB was nice but it literally stained and messed up everything I touched I had to clean the bath and the sink and it ruined a wash cloth I tried to help removed it with!! Nightmare and probably insanely expensive.

Trying the foundation sample, unsure if it's too dark or too orange. I was colour matched and looked great in store but it is less yellow and a bit darker than my usual one.

Don't be too hard on yourself houseplant, if you're feeling a bit down and buying a new lipstick cheers you up then there are worse things you could do!
Maybe the new colour will grow on you ;-)

I'm sure we all have many impulse purchases we regret later lol

I haven't checked in all week so I'm here to report my UU!

10. OPI Avojuice 30ml Jasmine - WNB, this is useless stuff as a hand lotion so I use it up shaving my legs. 2 mini bottles left but I'm switching to the dregs of my conditioner to shave my legs with now because the 400ml bottle is annoying me.

11. Colgate mini toothpaste - kept at work, WNB think it was free from the dentist but the travel size toothpastes are way too expensive for how much you get in them.

12. Dove Gofresh Cucumber roll on deo - WMBA, my HG is Mitchum but their 100ml tube is too big for travelling so I had this for holidays. I do like the smell of cucumber but it's a weird scent to pick for a deo in my opinion! :rotfl:

13. No 7 Instant Radiance concealer - WPNBA, I don't feel this has enough coverage for my undereyes. I don't have really dark circles but it doesn't seem to do anything really!

I'm hoping for some more UU this weekend. I need to get a shift on with them because 2 weeks today I will be in Japan on holiday!
And before that I need to clear out and pack up all my belongings from my flat in Hong Kong :eek: I hate packing and moving, I really do:eek:

One cheeky IN today:

Bioderma Photoderm Spot Creme SPF50 30ml

I'm really excited to try this, the sample was great, so I'm hoping it's amazing.
