No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries Feb. 2018

VALM - not it's not the same eyecream, mine is Triple Age Renewal or something and is just a white cream.

UU

Elizabeth Arden 8 hour hand cream 15ml. One left then will definitely never buy again

Clinique DDMlotion for dry to dry combo skin. 30 ml. Nothing to write home about was. GWP.

The dry, bitter cold destroys skin and there will be more used ups.

I made it through 3 airports and never cracked. Came close with a Clarins lip gloss kit in Amsterdam but I was strong

I have a lot of perfume, at one time it was over 40 bottles, it might be around 30 now. Apart from the 3/4 on my dressing table they are all sealed and packed away in a box so they won't come to any harm, I would ideally like to just have 2 bottles, one light daytime scent and a heavier scent. I do remember a time many years ago when I just had one bodyspray and no perfume at all.

I also keep mine in their boxes in a drawer to preserve them, I hadn't been using them much in the last year as when I was pregnant I was sensitive to smells and also accumulated a few of them as gifts but I am determined to put them to use this year and smell fab in the process:rotfl:
I can also remember back to when I only had either a bodyspray or a bottle of so? or coty laimant on the go! Never had a problem using up my products then.

Woah, at your perfume stash. Have you got any that are now discontinued?

You are a better woman than I wondercollie.

VALM

I've made an order with Feel Unique this morning. They sent me a 20% off everything code (usually there are exclusions). I have ordered those items that I'll run out of this month with two exceptions:-

There was an Elemis offer. Spend £60 get free cleanser, Toner & moisturiser kit worth £27. The site did not show a photo of the trio so I don't know what they'll be but hoping they're travel sizes to take away next month. So to qualify I bought a kit containing my Cleanser, corresponding Toner (both 200ml) and Bliss capsules (can't remember how many - I'm with dolly84 on these. Don't mind having them but don't think they do much). This kit was £40.

Ordered a tube of Sensitive Shave Gel for MRM as it's his staple and he'll run out soon.

Ordered the full size of the L'Occitane oil make up remover.

Ordered a ABH Dipbrow pomade for Emma as she uses this and it's rare to get discount on this brand.

I knew I'd have these purchases to make this month so glad to get a decent discount. I would have ordered my Bumble & Bumble B Straight Creme but it was sold out. Will look for this on EBay when I run out.

It feels good to finish a perfume. I will finish my bottle of L'Occitane Amber and Santal very soon. I think I'll then use a lighter fragrance for a while (LE no 9) and then switch back to My Burberry as that is half finished.

It does feel good to finish a perfume especially if they are larger bottles, I think I get bored and switch when they are larger bottles so prefer to buy more 30ml or 50ml.
I had tried some of the LOccitane fragrances years ago(cherry blossom and verbena I think they were) I never got through the full bottles I think they were 100ml sizes?
Is the Amber and Santal in a huge bottle?
I might try to PP a bottle of noa perfume next, its nice and light so I can spray it liberally to UU:)

Nah, the husband offered to buy coffee and cake! He rarely offers so I couldn’t pass it up.

By the time we’d finished, there wasn’t time
