No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries July 2019

One UU from this morning:

Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel 250g WDBA and will do in the future. I love the Lush shower gels, the smells make me feel a little bit better every time I smell them. The next time I'm near a Lush store, I'm going to pop in and buy a bottle of my favourite shower gel, Rose Jam. But Snow Fairy is one of my favourites as well

250ml Body Shop Milk & Almond Shower Cream 10/54

Philosophy Shear Splendour Shampoo 1L - this was lovely but WNBA.


Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Stick in Peek-a-boo - WNBA, pointless really, you get such a tiny amount of product and a load of wasteful plastic. They used to do really nice lip crayons and they replaced them with these. I still have some of the old type unopened in the stash.

One UU from last night:

Dermalogica Dermal Clay Cleanser sample WMB as a full size but probably not. It's a nice cleanser, but the smell could be too much for some people.

One TA as well:

REN AHA Smart Renewal Body Serum 50ml sample WNB. This just made my skin itch and itch. Not a fan.

July

[STRIKE]Hand moisturiser (30ml[/STRIKE])
Benefit porefessional (spluttering)
[STRIKE]Mascara lash accelerator[/STRIKE]
Lush Karma moisturiser (225ml)
Sport fx cooling primer
Clinique eye cream (15ml)
All samples (6)

UU hand cream. This was Milton brown from a flight I think! Not bad but not amazing.

Lash accelerator WBA good product for my short blonde lashes. In fact I have only one mascara left now which I might TA as it is a bit dry

Lush kisskin bubble bar. WBA but not leave it so long to use. This one was soft and didn’t smell of much

Living proof perfect hair WNB this did nothing! Absolutely nothing

Peray and reed overnight hair recovery WNBA but this is maybe because I had 30ml and I have loads of hair. It felt nice I guess but didn’t do anything to the condition of my hair.

Overall I have combination hair, but it’s been feeling particularly dry recently in the heat. Any suggestions for hair products welcome!

Stash at 206.

One UU from yesterday:

Colgate Plax Cool Mint Mouthwash 250ml WDBA and will do in a few days time. Lovely mouthwash, its doesn't have a harsh mint flavour like some I've used.

An update from me....

UUs
4711 Eau de Cologne 50ml - WDBA, much cheaper and a lot nicer than the highly-esteeemed (by others!) Clarins Dynamisante! I'll keep a look out for this at Christmas as it's often in a gift set, which is how I bought it this time!
Boots Cucumber Facial Wash 150ml - Very nice for such a cheap product, WBA
Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream 15ml - I forgot how good this was, WDBA!
Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water 700ml (Brush Cleaner) - Excellent brush cleaner and good as a first clean of my reusable make-up pads.
Johnson's Fresh Baby Powder 500g - WBA, has less talc in it than the standard but a lot nicer than the terrible talc-free cottontouch one!
Lancôme Advanced Genifique Hydrogel Melting Mask - WNBA, I've tried all manner of sheet masks from cheap to expensive and I still can't see why people love them, they're awfully overrated in my opinion!
Lancôme Bi-Facil Eye Cleanser 30ml - HG
Rituals The Ritual of Sakura Foaming Shower Gel 200ml - WNBA, an overrated brand in my opinion, foamed but only on the body, dripped very annoyingly out of the can and smelt of nothing special.
Superdrug Manuka Honey Face Wipes x 25 - WNBA, too honey-ey but did a good job.

Avon MagiX HD Finishing Powder - HG, I've tried the ELF one but found it too grainy!
L'Oreal True Match Powder N4 - HG

GA - a clear-out of some things I'll never use!
Avon ANEW Age-Transforming Compact Foundation Nude - slightly too dark and far too heavy for me.
Beauty Bon Contour Palette - I can't be bothered trying to contour, it never looks good on me!
Beauty Pie Superbrow Pro-Sculpting Powder - Ash Brown - however I applied this, it gave me 'sharpie brows'! :eek::rotfl:
Lacura Broadway Shape & Glow - Too golden
Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra Wear samples in 010 Beige Porcelaine, 005 Beige Ivoire & 010.1 Beige Ecru - WNB full-size as none of these were as good a match as the No7 foundations in Cool Ivory!
Leighton Denny Glitter Nail Polish 12ml - Too similar to others I have.
No7 Stay Perfect Eye Shadow Primer - Useless product, WDNBA!
Primark Matte Bronzing Powder in Fearless & Suspect - unopened and can't remember why I bought them!
Technic 24ct Gold Highlighting Powder - Lovely but I have the NARS Orgasm blusher which gives a much nicer pink-gold shimmer.

TA
Angela Langford Angel eyes nourishing eye oil 2ml - WNB full size, it didn't irritate but no matter how careful I was when applying, it always made its way into my eyes and made my vision blurry!
Smashbox Insta-matte Lipstick Transformer 5ml - WNB full-size, didn't feel or look very good.
