No buying unnecessary toiletries May 2019

pinkfluffybabe

One UU this morning:

Dr Haushka Rose Day Cream Light. WNBA. This was my staple but I seem to be having a reaction to it so will lay of it for a while.

A few INs that I've been gifted over the last few days:

Paul Mitchell shampoo mini
Paul Mitchell conditioner mini
Paul Mitchell body lotion mini
Paul Mitchell body wash bar
Ren Rose centrifolia cleanser
Ren Evercalm moisturiser
Ren perfect canvas

VALM

UU Lacura primer (Smashbox copy). This was bought for me by a friend at work as I had bought one for her. Didn't want to tell her that I had not always got on with the Smashbox one and this was no exception. It only worked if mixed with the Lacura Flash Balm copy. I'm hoping that I can pick up another tube of the latter when it's gone as it's lovely on its own.

Seems I've been a bit tardy about updating my PP List!


With one day left, it's looking likely that these products will be carried forward:-


OPI Original Nail Envy - getting the bottom at least.


Elemis Balancing Lime Blossom Cleanser - actually won't put this in list as it's a gimme product and will be gone in about 2-3 days.


Lacura Q10 night serum - this feels really light but as the packaging is opaque I have no clue as to how long it will last so will carry it forward.


Philosophy Purity Cleanser - will carry this forward and use it as my second evening cleanser. I have had it in my kit bag when I go swimming but need to pull it into rotation now that it is open.


New items:-


Elemis Pro Collagen Marine Cream
Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue
Nivea deodorant

OGX shampoo
ABC Tea Tree SkinWash
Murad Clarifying Toner
Margaret Dabbs hand cream


Most of these, to be fair are gimme products but I need motivation and a quick turn around for next month will do just that.


For my Finish 7 by Summer I am really hoping to finish the Lemon Aid and want pan on one if not both of the blushers. Darkhorse is at the point of defeating me!

One IN today:

Soltan Protect & Moisturise Active Suncare Stick SPF30 5g

Replacement ready for when I finish my current one. This is a good SPF lip balm, it leaves no white cast, which is great.

Final UU of the month:

Neals Yard White Tea Facial Mist - damaged packaging used on body.

Neals Yard Rose and Cucumber body wash - fresh but discontinued now

Been really slack this month, I even opened 2 products from my stash without checking what was going to expire first, what’s wrong with me :doh: lol. At least no INs!

I've been using my Benefit Easiest Nudes set all this month for eyeshadow and have made a decision about it. I like the light brown and the dark matte brown but not the cream and pink shimmers so I have depotted the two colours I like and put them in my magnetic palette and the two mini pots of cream eyeshadow are in my makeup bag. The box has been recycled.

Last 2 UUs:-


Elemis Lime Blossom Balancing Cleanser. Have another in stash.


ABC Tea Tree Skinwash 1L. Have a cleansing bar to replace this with but will look out for a good deal on a replacement bottle.

So delighted this month is over it has dragged for me. I am making slow progress but…

UU this morning my UD Naked Skin Foundation – WDBA this is my holy grail foundation but I impulse bought a NYX one last year which I am committed to using up before I reassess and repurchase.

I had a low key PP list this month as I wanted to have some quick wins, sorry not sorry:

Lush Eau Roma Water UU
Urban decay Naked Skin foundation UU
Want to paint my fingernails 3 times and toenails once and wear eyeshadow once this month with what I have – definitely achieved this re: painting my nails but I did not wear eye shadow once – really need to bear this in mind when I feel tempted by shiny palettes.

Monthly totals:
IN's - purchased: 7 - this includes 3 ingredients for home made toner which I haven't posted about but might do when I actually get around to making it and trying it
IN's that were second-hand partially used by my mum: 8
UU: 5
I am not disappointed to have more IN than UU because my mum is a bit of a beauty junkie and the more stuff I can encourage her to destash responsibly the better!!

Going to work out a running total to add to my PP list for June Thanks all for your chat and inspiration this month!
