    Odilyque gentle herb shampoo. WBA. Love this shampoo.

    My March PP list

    [STRIKE]Lancome La Vie Est Belle Body Lotion 50ml (b/f from Feb)[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Lancome La Vie Est Belle EDP 30ml (b/f from Feb)[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Hawaiian Tropic Lime Coolada Body Butter 200ml [/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Body Shop Vanilla Brulee Shower Gel 250ml[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Superdrug Brightening Night Cream 50ml[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]MUR Foundation Stick[/STRIKE]
    Revlon Colourstay Foundation
    [STRIKE]Nicky Clarke Instant Calmer 50ml[/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]Garnier 7 Day Body Lotion Aloe 400ml[/STRIKE]



    Just the foundation left from my PP list. I need to make an effort with it or just get rid if I'm not going to use it. Have had a lot of uu this month and got rid of quite a bit of makeup that I won't use, stash is looking smaller apart from all the huge shower gels and body butters which are taking up tons of space.

    1 UU - Pixi Glow Tonic Cleansing Gel. I'm in two minds about this. I bought this instead of Pixi Mud Cleanser and I don't think it is better. It i a bit runny so you end up using too much of the product. It feels nice on the skin and has a gentle texture but not sure if it made a big difference to my skin. I'd buy Mud Cleanser instead probably.

    No update on below list, unfortunately.

    Finish By Spring List
    TBS Wild Rose Hand Butter
    TBS Hemp Foot Protector
    Jimmy Choo - Flash
    Seven Seas Energetic You Supplements
    This Works Deep Sleep Cream
    Max Factor Foundation

    John Freida volumising in shower treatment - quite liked this, it’s not that economical though. I think I’m just going to go back to using volumising shampoo/conditioner.

    March results:
    UU - 3
    GA - 3
    TA - 9
    IN - 5

    Happy with this, down by 10 :)

    PP List for March - have switched this to things I hope to actually finish up this month
    [strike]Dermalogica ultra smoothing eye serum [/strike] TA
    [strike]Sure Cotton Dry roll on[/strike] UU
    [strike]Essence stay all day concealer[/strike] TA
    [strike]Urban decay Naked Skin foundation[/strike] Almost done but don't want to uneccesarily blow the rest of this
    Mina pencil eyeshadow in black - I have never used this, and want to try it out so promise I will this month haha oh dear I never did try this, maybe today is the day!

    Also - I want to not buy ANYTHING all month so will add that as a goal

    Feel like I made a concerted effort with everything but the stuff I threw away was just, beyond rescue.

    In: 3 - I could have waited for 2 of these, but I got a tax rebate, and hopefully I'm all good for haircare for the rest of 2019 now.
    Out: 15 inc...
    4 GA
    3 TA
    8 UU

    Feeling really good about this, my toiletries drawer looks so much better, I have barely any duplicates in categories now, but want to keep tracking on here as it makes me more mindful of consumption. Thanks all for the inspiration.

    Oh one bonus UU
    Primark x Alex Steinherr Plump and Glow The Power Mask
    This was super relaxing! I think it was a bit on the pricey side for a sheet mask but would consider repurchasing for a special treat.

    so total is 16 out

    Uus for the month:

    Monuskin moisturiser - WMBA, ok so far as a night moisturiser. Have another two in the stash so will be able to judge it better with continued use.

    Heliocare advanced spf 50 cream - WBA, does not leave a white cast on my skin and a 50 ml bottle has lasted for near 1 year.

    Ins:

    Rose hip oil
    Beautiful textures tangle taming leaving in conditioner
    Nip & Fab glycolic fix pads

    Two final UU for March:

    Ila Body Lotion. WBNA. This was a spa goodie bag freebie, smelled nice and all but left skin a bit tacky and was a nightmare to get out of the bottle!

    L'occitane honey body cream. WBA. Really liked this, good fragrance and moisturising.
