I am very low on some of the products in my PP list so I’m hoping to have several use ups within the next week or so.
My plan for February is to go back through my toiletries and sort out any bits that I don’t think I’m ever going to use, with the intention of either trying to sell these, throw away or donate them.
Am also planning to try out my Sensationail gel nail varnish stuff this month so I can start using some of my varnishes and related products.
I am not intending to buy any toiletries this month.Had an OK February - a few UUs (the crossed out items above) but have been off work so not used some items that I expected to finish off. Sorted out 4 or 5 items that I don’t think I’ll use to sell in boot fair. I had no INs.4 -
My last UU for February
15ml Margaret Dabbs Nail & Cuticle Serum 4/12
200ml Body Shop Coconut Shower Gel 5/13
Scores on the door February February 2020 Scores UU 5/13, IN 4/7, GA 0/1 TA 0/0

Hourglass bronzer from the Edit 4 paletteI am up for a finish 7 by Summer Challenge too. So fed up of all the doom and gloom so yes I'm in. Will keep the two blushers and eyeshadow in but am changing up the other items so:-Rollin in Dough eyeshadowNARS Gilda BlushNARS Outlaw BlushThese three items are almost done so will lump them together as a springboard: Marc Jacobs Infamous mini lipstick, Anastasia Beverley Hills lipgloss in Weekend Barbie and Bare Minerals loose Blush called HintSmashbox matte eyeshadow from Full Exposure paletteLaura Geller Gilded Honey highlighter deluxe sample size - do have pan in this but still think it will last until SummerHourglass Ambient Lighting powder in Dim Light - again I already have pan.This now means that when I am working from home/self isolating I'll need to wear make up which I would have done anyway I think. Try to keep something normal.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.
