No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries October 2018

sstevo19

Two UUs this morning:

Caudalie Rose De Vigne shower gel 200ml WNBA. This was a nice scented shower gel, but the tube is so hard to squeeze that I won't purchase it again.

La Roche Posay Hydreane Legere Moisturiser 40ml WDBA and have. This is a lovely light moisturiser which helps keep my skin moisturised. Replaced with the same.

I have done some tidying and listed a few more items on eBay. I'm hoping to sell at least some of them!
1 UU today - Merumaya Concentrated Spot Treatment . This is a really good product. It gets rid of blemishes very effectively, doesn't damage the skin. It isn't the best value for money though but I will re-purchase. Currently, there is a really good offer (free gift) and I'd advise if you want to try this brand. Their retinol is my favorite along with luxurious face wash.

Another UU is Oskia Perfect Cleanser. Amazing product. I WDBA at some point.
Also used 1 x Sephora Eye Mask and will use Argan Hand Mask tonight when I'm watching Bodyguard!

I have selected two face moisturisers/masks to use as foot/body cream as they have been open for a while. Some face washes will be used as shower gel. So hoping to UU few more bits before the end of the month.

I need a "no buying unnecessary candles" thread... I just took inventory of them and it's way worse than my toiletries!! ��

I think in this modern age of torches and electricity, one could make the argument that ALL candles are unnecessary :rotfl::D

A sliver of a BS cranberry bar soap away from a UU but spent all yesterday afternoon tracking down the L'Occ bag with some soaps (and handcreams) inside to replace it with. Now found at the back of the bedside cabinet where I must have put it in the Great Reorganisation of The Stash. Gone for the Rosemary Bonne Mare and the L'Occ bag is now safely stashed inside the Kipling bag, next to the LE bag on top of the Great Step Pyramid of Toiletaries.
The sample sachets have also been reorganised.
And trying hard to resist the LE TSV.
Now for the shoes.

UU

UU for this week:-
8ml Natural Collection Mascara WP 5/90
30ml Elemis PCMC 6/91

I have resisted temptation to view the LE presentation. I am in the process of constructing a spread sheet of my stash:o:o:o I hope that it will help me to resist skincare purchases, very low on shower gels and body washes, so if I get really itchy to buy something.........

One UU from last night:

Lush Monster’s Ball Bath Bomb WDBA and will do next year if it'd available. Such a lovely, fresh scent.

A few UU's recently:
- Rituals faoming shower gel (ritual of Ayurveda) 50ml. WNB - I do love the Rituals foaming hsower gels, but I just don't think they're worth paying the money. This came in a Tili box, and it was great, but not really anything better than a cheapie one from Aldi
- Clinique rinse-off foaming cleaner. WDBA - looooove this. It lasts ages, and is just really gentle and effective. This one lived in my shower (2nd part of double cleanse after a cleansing balm before showers), and has been replaced with some random minis for now.
- Vichy mineral 89 serum/daily booster, 3 sachets. WNB - totally fine, but bit too runny for me, and not enough samples to tell if it did anyything.
- Kiehls Midnight Recovery Concentrate. WMBA - it's nice, but I can't think of a 'wow' right now to justify the price. But I had a reason for buying it before, hmmmm. I'll see how my skin fares for while without it.
- Bodhi & birch super 25 botanical serum. WNB - fine, but nothing exciting.
- Lancome Hydra zen day cream (15ml mini). WDNB - used up as a footcream, and the one below. Just didn't enjoy it, and my skin has been rubbish recently since using these, and started improving as soon as I stopped. Very annoying - I love Lancome bi-facil (which these came with), but really did not like these.
- Lancome Hydra zen overnight masque (15ml mini) - see above.
- Lacura dry shampoo. WMBA - I use dry shampoo so infrequently that I can't tell if this is any different to Batiste. Probably not - they're probably made in the same factory :P
- Pack of cotton pads

A couple of things I forgot to add to the PP list, but I'm really trying to finish this month:
- Freedom eye shadow, single colour in a mini palette. It's almost gone - I have to use a really dense little brush to get colour out, then blend it with a bigger soft brush.
- Benefit benebalm. Almost gone also - has to be removed and applied with a lip-brush now. I'm getting as much as I can out of it, as I love it!

And a few small INs:
- 2 muslins from REN (needed), which came with the following for 'free' (ok it was £4.50 for the lot, including delivery, and I really did need the muslins :P ):
- Evercalm Gentle Cleansing Gel 25ml
- Evercalm Global Protection Day Cream 15ml
- Glycol Lactic Radiance Renewal Mask 15ml

So updated PP and xmas lists:

UUs:

Elizabeth Arden green tea perfumed water - WNBA, very refreshing citrus scent but poor sillage. This perfume was 100 ml and lasted one year, even with generous applications and top-ups. Therefore, I have approx 6 years of perfume left in stash. I may purchase smaller bottles in the future, even though they are more expensive than larger bottles or find a signature scent.

Superdrug argan oil clay mask - WMBA, my skin care routine has been lacking recently so I'm not really sure whether this has had any effect.
