No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries Feb. 2018
Comments
-
UU rituals night cream. Too greasy for my dry/combination/sensitive keen to break out nightmare skin.0
-
Not a very exciting month of UUs:
1 x Bottle of 3% Hydrogen peroxide which I use as mouthwash
1 x Bottle of glycerine 1 x Bottle of rosewater, used for toner mixture
Braun satin tape floss
More exciting ins to add to stash:
2 x Superdrug Naturally radiant hot cloth cleansers
Palmers Exfoliating facial wash - excited to use this as there are no microbeads
1 x Superdrug Naturally radiant micro polish
1 x Bubble purifying + charcoal face mask sheet - GWP
I've also invested in a Panasonic waterpik, which is quite messy experience so far and I'm still getting used to.
I pledge to do better next month!0 -

I gave my WaterPik to my son, it nearly drowned me. The Philips Air Flossers are so much better. Mine is working to rule, debating buying another as they are not cheap, and the last one was free to review.
No ins, other than an eyeliner. Some conditioner enroute, to review.Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0 -
Didn!!!8217;t keep track of INs and Outs that well this month but I think I had even so remain at about 130. I can blame this on receiving a gift set and sunscreen.0

Great challenge. Don't mind if I join this.
I basically still have some Bath and Body Works Sets that were given to me as a gift. I don't exactly love them but they will do for now. Finish everything then buy something!0
