Here to log my last UU (not many this month). No recent INs.
Superdrug Cocoa Butter & Vanilla Body Lotion 200ml - I really liked this. Would definitely buy this and others lotions/butters again from Superdrug. Still plenty of lotions in stash to go!
No7 Extravagant Volume Waterproof Mascara 9ml - A good mascara mini. Got a few other mini make-up things so will work through those.
I threw out a Maybelline Dream Mousse Foundation (was over 10 years old and no longer like this kind of formulation). I also gave away the rest of an Original Source shower gel and a bottle of talcum powder.No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2019 Total UU since 2016 - 396 | Total February UU - 10 -

My last UU of the month : Lush Cream Egg. This was gorgeous.
I went into Manchester yesterday and bought absolutely nothing beauty related though I did enjoy wandering the beauty departments on my own. Bought the pair of shoes that I needed for work and that was it (oh and a Starbucks).
I will be making an order to the UK stockist I've found who sells Bath & Body Works products. I am using a shower gel and shea butter body lotion in the fragrance Magic in the Air. I've cut the tube of body lotion open but have about 2/3rds of the shower gel left so am going to replace the body lotion. As free shipping is applied on a spend of £30.00, I'm going to order a new candle, handcream and handwash in readiness.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!
