    Thanks for the new thread. I'm in again.

    I have UU'ed a small Loccitane Shea Butter hand cream. This was a freebie but not sure from where. Good to keep in handbag or for travelling. Hand cream itself is good but not my favorite.

    I also UU'ed Benefit Dew the Hoola sample and really liked it. I might invest in full size.

    Will not need to buy in 2018

    I'm in. This month I want to concentrate on trying some of the products that have been sitting unopened on my shelf for months. They are things I bought on a whim but have never really fancied using them. Hopefully, I can either start to use them up or realise they were a waste of money and bin them.

    Obviously I'm in again!

    Thought I might try "No Buy July" which I've seen going around on You Tube. My HG foundation and shampoo are both nearly gone, but I have backups of less enjoyable things that I need to work through before repurchasing.

    Goal is to UU 10 items. I also need to do a bit of a stash clearout. It's probably a year since I last went through really critically.

    Thanks for starting the new thread. No Buy July will not happen for me as I've already ordered things:-

    From QVC:-

    Elemis 6 piece set containing PCMC with spf, Pro Collagen Overnight Matrix cream, shower gel, body scrub, tan accelerator and micellar water. All full sizes. I only have one item in use of all these products (with the exception of Pro Collagen Marine Cream and shower gels) so will be using them all soon. Really wanted the new night cream and the kit is a really good price.

    Tarte Park Avenue Princess bronzer for Emma. Had a £10 off voucher I could use for this so pleased with price.

    From lookfantastic.com:-

    3 x 250ml ABC body lotion. This is HG product for me and I have run out totally. These were on 3 for 2 offer so pleased with the price of these too.

    From facebook:-

    From QVSell page I bought a 59ml tube of Laura Geller Spackle in Bronze for £9.00. Should be £21.50 so pleased with this also although haven't tried the bronze variety before but should be able to carry this for now.

    Finally, from the List it .. Gift it page I "won" a selection of beauty products one of which looked like it was from The Ordinary which I've wanted to try. £3.00 for the lot. Will let you all know what is in the bundle when it arrives.

    I still will need to buy hand cream but am hoping I can eek out the current tube until the end of the month.

    First UU of the month:

    No 7 wipes. HG. More in stash (thankfully!).

    Need to sort out PP list.
    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!

    PP list JULY 2018
    30ml Maybelline BB cream spf 30,
    30ml Pestle & Mortar Superstar Retinol Night Oil
    30ml Pestle & Mortar Pure Hyluronic Serum
    250ml Pixi Glow Tonic
    200ml Body Shop Camomile Cleansing Oil

    May need to buy shower gel and deo this month.

    There is no way that I can see that I should NEED to buy anything else this month, will try very hard not to be tempted by offers etc, I have ignored shed loads of 15 and 20 percent discounts in the last few weeks, every time I am tempted to add something to a basket I make myself go and play with the stash:rotfl:

    Hi everyone!

    I used to be involved in this thread quite a few months back. I’d like to rejoin again as I need to get a tighter grip on my finances again (after having no debt but some savings I now have no savings and I’m in my overdraft a bit). I also used to love hearing everyone’s thoughts on which products they like and don’t.

    Starting the month with two UU:
    - benefit coralista blusher WBA loved it used every last bit through perservance. Can’t justify buying again though as skint and have a travel sized nars blush, two travel sized benefit dandelion (one was a gift after I’d bought it myself!) and a hourglass blush to use up. Sadly none are peachy and summer though, I wonder if I could layer with bronzer.
    - A GWP Rodial Mascara, came on a magazine but WNB as made my lashes clumpy and dried out quickly

    I was in Tesco today and bought 3 beauty blenders as they were on offer (3 for 2). Replaced my current one. I use these regularly so didn't want to miss the offer.
