No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries November 2017

I have some uu and outs

UU- Philosophy Pure Grace EDP 60ml - WBA, love this and always get compliments when I wear Philosophy scents.

TA - Superdrug coconut oil - useless product, terrible on hair or skin, I was trying to use as foot cream but it is rubbish.

TA - Burts Bees Peach & Willow Bark Face Scrub - I have tried to like this but the peach bits are too big and scratchy and there isn't enough of them to actually scrub, I tried it as a body scrub but it just doesn't scrub. Shame as I love the idea of it.

Three INs to declare:

Dentek Silky Whitening Floss Picks 75 count
Tepe EasyPick XS/S 36 count
Oral B Complete Cool Mint Mouthwash 500ml

I'm on a bit of an oral hygiene kick lately. And the floss picks are for when I'm lazy, haha

I'm going to try and keep my INs low this month. But my stash is decreasing slowly. Thanks to these threads, I've now got under 100 items in my stash. Currently at 74 items in my stash. I've got 4 items not included in that number as I'm going to post them on the Skincare Exchange and see if anyone wants them. If I don't enjoy it or can't use it, someone else might enjoy it and want it or they might want to try it.

INs: 2x Superdrug Phytoglycolic Age Day Cream, necessary, BOGOF and recommended by Sali Hughes
Garnier Coconut oil conditioner, necessary

UU: L'occitane Verveine shower gel mini - last but one of the advent calendar minis from last year. Annoying packaging, hard to get everything out, though I do like the scent
L'occitane cherry blossom perfume - didn't last on me. Another advent calendar mini.

Now on Jo Malone Earl Grey & Cucumber which I promised myself I could use when I'd used up half of my perfume - it has been well worth the wait.

I have a uu

Korres Wild Rose Moisturiser SPF6 16ml - this is nice and I like the Korres brand so WMBA.

I have also sold 2 mini eyeshadow palettes.

VALM

5 by Christmas

No 7 liquid highlighter - this has gone. I used it as a primer in the end. I don't get on with cream/liquid highlighter or blush so WNBA. Would use if I got another freebie.

Benefit Dallas powder is still ongoing. I've found a way to post photos on here so will update later with pictures of items in this challenge.

Burts Bees lip balm - can't see any progress.

OPI Spare Me. A French Qyarter mini - am using this every third mani and am seeing a gap at the top of the bottle.

Tiger Balm - MRM keeps moaning about the smell. I need to bring this to work, I think.

PP list:-

Maybelline Colour Tattoo - I am at the point where I am getting very little product on my brush. V excited.

Smashbox eyeshadow - am using this until I hit pan and will change to a different eyeshadow - still not hit pan!!

LUSH Dirty shave cream
kind Natured conditioner
Batiste travel sized dry shampoo
[STRIKE]Avon Citrus Zing liquid soap/handwash[/STRIKE]
Bumble & Bumble B Straight creme - mini tube
Murad Brightening Toner
Boots No 7 face wipes
ABC Tea Tree body lotion

I TA a bottle of nail lacquer at weekend : Leighton Denny All About Me. I have it on my toe nails at the moment but it was gloopy on application. It's just a nice pink. I have other nice pinks.

Am wearing OPI Did you Ear About Van Gogh on my fingernails. Still not in love with it. Still don't want to part with it.

I have a uu

Estee Lauder Pure Colour Lipstick in Crystal Pink - this was a GWP but was a full size lipstick, lovely everyday natural pink.

and a TA

Maybelline Colour Drama Lip Pencil in Minimalist - I have been wearing this under the above lipstick but it is rock hard and very dry to apply and drying on the lips, it also has big bits of glitter in it. I have other colours of these and they are not dry so I'm not sure what the problem with this one is.

Bare Minerals Brightening Primer
No7 Stay Perfect Smoothing Eyeshadow
Benefit Creaseless Cream Eyeshadow in Birthday Suit - I would just like to hit pan on this.

My updated lists.

I have taken the stopper out of the No7 Smoothing Eyeshadow this morning so I will need to be careful with that as I am getting loads on the wand now. I'm pretty pleased with progress so far and I can really see the stash going down now.

Second UU of November

John Masters Neroli Dentangler. WBA. On to the next in my big pile of conditioners!

One IN from this morning:

Boots Botanics Hydration Burst Dual Action Cleanser 125ml

My skin isn't liking any of the cleansers I'm currently trying as my current morning cleanser is nearing the end, and all the others I try and not getting on with my skin. Hoping this will be as nourishing as it sounds

I have a uu

Boots Extracts Cocoa Butter Body Wash 250ml - WBA, this is sustainable and fairtrade which is important to me, it would be even better if I could recycle the packaging when it's finished.
