No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries February 2020

Good work all!
I dragged the S&G Wonditioner out of the stash to use over the weekend - really like it but it will take an age to use I suspect as it's a big old pot! Also made an effort to use the Clinque Sparkle Skin - there's still best part of half the tub of that left too but I'm not worried about that as it's lovely stuff! :rotfl:
I probably need to raid the stash to see if there's anything in there that I realistically won't use - i get the feeling there are a couple of Avon perfumes still wrapped and boxed in there and I rather think they might as well go to the CS bag - they're old but they've been stored cool and dark so will be fine. I wonder what else might be lurking int he bottom of the box...?
I did also pull Body Shop foot file out of the stash and set aside to use, and threw away the old one over the weekend. Definite progress!🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

To those who love the Waitrose Baby Bottom Butter, there is a supply issue and they have ran out of stock. I emailed their customer service and there has been so many queries about this product. They hoping to restock but could not give a date. So if you see it, buy it!! I spent the last 2 months looking for this product. Hence the reason I brought the Palmer Coconut Butter.0 -
confused - I am just using normal conditioner with my shampoo bar at the moment as I have a large stash to wade through, when they are done I will be moving to the bars.
shed - what do you use the Bottom Butter for?
I have a uu
Desert Essence Coconut Soft Curls Hair Cream - this is an American brand not sold here, I bought two bottles from an ebay seller ages ago. I really like it, it lasts ages, you only need a bit, a spritz of water the next few day revives the curls and they are never crunchy. Moving onto the second bottle now.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

I bought a replacement tube of Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue from Facebook last night. Was too good a price not to.
To try and save money now I don’t want to buy my Amika Bombshell Blowout spray. Any good recommendations for a High Street hair styling product,not mousse though thanks.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

Not much to report here - splutterers are still spluttering.
Did a bit of research yesterday regarding possible stop-gap replacements for the Clinique Moisture Surge and apparently Neutrogena Hydroboost gel-cream is meant to be pretty close so I may swing by Boots later and see if they have it. They might not as the store local to work in teeny - but we'll see!🎉 MORTGAGE FREE (First time!) 30/09/2016 🎉 And now we go again…New mortgage taken 01/09/23 🏡

My Kiehl's aqua gel suncream is at spluttering stage and I have a tiny L'occitane hand cream that is almost finished so hopefully I can finish more than expected. A stash list did help - thanks3
