No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries September 2019

Just checking in to say I have no IN's so far this month, pleased with myself but also no progress on anything else since my last update...0

One UU this morning, at last:
A. Florence Super Serum 10ml WPNBA. This was a lovely serum, I just don't think my skin gets on with any Vitamin C serums that I've tried so far. I used this up on my neck, because I don't know if the Vitamin C or the Olive Squalane in it was causing my face to be a bit congested. Very gentle though. The brand is great as well.0 -

1 concealer
1 contour kit
2 blushers
4 liquid/cream eye shadows
4 kohl eyeliners
Brow highlighter
3 red lipsticks
3 wedding/honeymoon lipsticks (why let them go bad saving them for special occasions?!)
1 lipgloss
Haven’t been using these consistently enough, but have decided to TA the Benefit brow highlighter.0 -
Some INs to declare, we are going on holiday on Monday and I don't have time or the brain space to do these properly, so from memory...
XHC Banana Bodywash x 2, Green Tea Shampoo & Conditioner (TBS dupes)
Elizabeth Arden VitC capsules (NBI from Boots Review Panel)
3 x Nivea Cherry Lip Balm (an HG, reduced, on 3 for 2 and you got the gift below)
Superdrug skincare free gift of glycolic toner, cleansing balm and cloth
3 x L'Oreal True Match Powder x 3, various shades
That's all from me folks, see you in October! :beer:No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries 2023

Two INs from this morning:
Noreva Sensidiane Soothing Micellar Lotion 500ml
SVR Sebiaclear SPF50+ Creme 50ml
Some essentials. Not too bad on the INs front this month. Going to use my Body Shop £5 voucher on two items before it expires today. So I'll have two more INs next week as well.0 -
My Finish 7 by Autumn list.
1. [STRIKE]Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation (b/f from the last project)[/STRIKE]
2. Seventeen Miracle Matte Powder
3. [STRIKE]Lancome mini mascara[/STRIKE]
4. [STRIKE]Soap & Glory mini lip crayon[/STRIKE]
5. Benefit Champagne Pink Eyeshadow (b/f from the last project)
6. The Balm Down Boy Blush - would like to hit pan (b/f from last project.
7. Mini Bobbi Brown Eyeshadow in Taupe
This project ends tomorrow. The foundation has one or two uses left in it so I will finish that off but will call it done for the purpose of this challenge. I've used the powder but I can't use much as it comes off dark on the skin. Despite using the two eyeshadows a few times a week for the whole 3 months they look exactly the same and there is barely a dip in the blush which again has been well used but it is very pigmented so I don't swirl the brush too much.
I will do a 7 by Christmas challenge starting in the next few days.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

One IN from yesterday:
Garnier Moisture Bomb Eye Tissue Mask Hyaluronic Acid and Orange Juice 6g
I was in Superdrug getting some Cold and Flu tablets and I saw this at the tills and got one. I like this masks and I'm feeling a bit crap so this is a treat for me.0 -
One UU from this afternoon:
Solait Sensitive Face Fluid SPF50 50ml WNBA. This was too rich to use on my face, so I used it on my neck and decolletage. Probably more suited to drier skin types, not bad for a very budget friendly SPF.0 -
Another UU this afternoon:
Lush Sunrise 100g WMBA if it was available. This was a nice soap, a decent scent. Replaced with the last bar of soap in my stash.0 -
Hi all, back from NYC and had a fantastic time. Proud to say, I havent purchased anything apart from 3 x Differin Gel 45g as they are not available in the UK.
I have UU'ed couple of things while away:
Nip Fab Daily Glycolic Pads - have more in the stash. Great for travelling as I don't have to carry toner.
Skin Chemist Facial Repair Aqua Serum 30 ml - Loved the scent and texture. I think no longer available.
Murad Vitamin C Cleanser 45 ml - Perfectly reliable Vitamin C cleaners. WMBA if it is on offer. This was a GWP. Great value for money as one drop goes a long way but unfortunately has microbeads in it.
Mon Guerlain Perfume Sample - Love this scent. WMB full size one day.
Prada Iris Cedre Perfume Sample - Strange scent, probably WNB full size.
L'homme Lacoste Perfume Sample (GA)
January Labs Body Lotion - loved this and used also as a hand cream eventually. I think this was from Caroline Hirons cult beauty box. Unlikely to pay £21 for a body lotion so WPNBA.ally.0
