No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries April 2019

savingfortomorrow

I finished suspect shade in the naked pallet. I have 5 shades left; the black included. I have three wearable shades but no transitional colours. I might try for another shade. It might get there.

Finished a toleraine riche tester. It was fine and basic.

Benefit Lemon Aid
Urban Decay Darkhorse
NARS Outlaw blush
NARS Gilda blush
MAC Lost Invite mini lipgloss
OPI Tickle my Francey
Philosophy Pure Grace

I finished the MAC Lost Invite lipgloss just before my holiday. This was a mini I got for Christmas so good to know they can be rattled through in about 3.5 months when used constantly.

Still no pan on the eyeshadow and blushers even with constant daily use. Still enjoying the blushers but getting bored of this eyeshadow and those in my Smashbox palette but will persevere.

Lemon Aid has substantial pan and I’m hopeful that it can be done within this Project.

Am wearing Tickle My Francey on my toes at the moment. Still going strong. As an aside, I pulled some Spring/Summer colours into rotation recently. Have a kind of unofficial Project Polish going on as I have way too many similar colours. Hoping to whittle down my Nudes, Reds and Pinks. I have finished a Pink and Red so far. Have been working on 4 full sized and 1 mini at a time and so am rolling in OPI A Definite Moust Have (wearing at the mo) and OPI Sparrow Me The Drama. Y mini is getting low too.

I did have some INs on holiday:-

Bare Minerals Love lipstick from Duty Free. Gorgeous warm coral shade
My Burberry Blush Fragrance
The Body Shop Chamomile Cleansing Butter. Both from Fund Grube.

I will finish the Flower Shop Neon Rose perfume thaws in my TILI Box Today. WNBA. It was nice enough. Will look to see if anyone is selling a different variety on Facebook though.

Seventeen mascara - good but discontinued

Neal’s Yard - White Tea Toning Eye Gel 10ml - perfect for use in the morning. I have some sachets of this to use next.

TA

Optiat - vanilla coffee scrub - too messy and don’t fancy the scent of old coffee hanging around. Cannot rinse out of exfoliating mitt. Shame.

This is a year old but popped up in my news feed today. Woman up cycles old cosmetics into paint. :A

I have a TA which I am a bit annoyed about.


Laura Mercier Caviar Stick in Sandglow - this is a full size which I bought on sale but these are still expensive. The colour is perfect but no matter how I try to use it (tried it with all the primers I own and on bare lids) it starts out sticky, then creases, then I am just left with a creased mess and bits of glitter. On the whole I like these - apart from the Aubergine one I got rid of a few days ago - but probably WNBA in any colour.


DD finished a 400ml bottle of Avon 2 in 1 anti dandruff shampoo which she finds more effective than Head & Shoulders and DS finished a Lynx Ginger & Ice shower gel.

I much prefer the Malay shadow sticks which are a similar price though I haven’t actually paid for either of those I own. I had problems with the Caviar sticks breaking inside the packaging. A friend at work is a fan of the Malay ones and says she has never had one break on her.

UUs

Avon Advance techniques shampoo: WMBA, not sure exactly which one but left hair smelling fresh afterwards and seems to clean hair well.

Dove Macadamia & Rice milk exfoliating body scrub: WBA on special offer. Smells lovely and has natural exfoliators which is better for the environment.

Aquafresh 24 fresh and minty toothpaste: WNBA, nothing special also leaves a mess in the sink.

UU

Neal’s Yard - Calendula & Oat Lotion 200ml - WBA - I have very dry skin with the occasional mild eczema, this is a pleasure to use compared to the pharmacy type brands.
