    A small pot of Lancome Genifique Eye Cream - this was a GWP and like all other Genifique products, really good. WMBA full size one day.

    Have taken stock of all my beauty products and vitamins as I wasted time time today buying hair dye, which I didn't spot was already in my stash because it has grown so big and is tumbling out my cupboards. I have absolutely no products to buy so next year's resolution is a no-new toiletries-for-2019, despite tempting sales offers.

    UUs:

    Fantasia ic pm oil treatment - WNBA, quite expensive and saw no improvement in the condition of my hair.

    Clairol nice and easy dark brown root touch up - WBA, if needed. Stores no longer seem to be stocking the black version but luckily this blended in with my hair.

    Hair electric shampoo sample - WNB , from a beauty box. Did not seem to clean my hair hair.

    Superdrug superfruit shampoo and conditioner samples - WNB, smelt nice but nothing special.

    Mitchum shower fresh antiperspirant

    Ins:

    Marioma sweet almond oil from Holland & Barrett - Filler item to make up free C & C.

    Finally finished a TBS Body Butter in British Rose. And I'm all rose-d out. There is more of this scent in the stash but I'm going to UU a sample sachet of Rituals Whipped Body cream before I target another tub.
  • 2 UU this morning:

    Dove Go Fresh Nourishing Cream Roll on deodorant in Cucumber And Green Tea - Probably my favourite deodorant, smells very fresh and lasts forever! Now time to start on the load my sister gave me. I predict that they will get me through to the end of February.

    Lucy Mecklenburgh Refreshing Body Lotion - smells really nice and fresh although it doesn’t quiet soak in as quickly as I would like but that is just me being picky!

    Stash total is 139
    Less is the new more :D

    Another UU Benefit Rollerlash. Great mascara. Have another in stash.
    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!

    uu


    Aromatherapy Associates De Stress Mind Bath Oil 7.5ml - that is the last of my very large stash of AA bath oils, I used to use them in every bath and got a bit fed up so I kept the last few bottles aside and had a break and now they have all gone I am a bit sad. Very lovely as a gift but probably WNBA for myself.

    Seventeen dolld up mascara - good but discontinued

    Dior Star foundation - ok but but sometimes didn’t work well with some primers and moisturisers

    Aussie curl and soft feel serum - lovely

    TA

    Olay complete day fluid spf 15 - smelt like sunscreen even though only spf 15, but good for oily skin. Thought the large size was good value at the time but no point if I can’t get through it.

    INs

    Palmolive naturals shower milk
    Palmolive aroma moments shower gel
    Both 20p from Superdrug, will mainly be used by OH
