This is my current list. I have run a bath today and used a bath fizzer and a bath bomb. Also finished a bottle of bath bubble.
I felt very anxious yesterday so a bit self-care was in order today. I want to place an order with Beauty Pie but noticed they increased some of the prices also not sure if it is that urgent at the moment.

asajj - I had a spell of being low and a bit anxious yesterday, but eventually got over a disappointment and put on a full face of slap and did some light work in the garden in the sunshine, accompanied by our Border Collie who firmly believes that if I am out there I should be playing ball with her, I have a large Beauty Pie credit balance and think I will order soon if the things I want are in stock, not looked for a few days.
Take care and stay safe, a huge thank you to all of you that are still working to help keep everything running, it is really appreciated. xxThe best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. (Abraham Lincoln)5 -
One UU from last night:
Lush Yog Nog Yule Log Bubble Bar - WDBA and will do if I could. I love this scent. I still have to go to work as the shop I work in is classed as an essential shop (not a supermarket or newsagents) and its been very taxing on my physical and emotional state. So I've decided to have a bath when I can to help chill out a bit.

It's been nice to not have to worry about buying toiletries, I can be indoors for a good few months yet before I run out of most products

It does make you feel like that. I always have a good amount of food in my cupboards and freezer and it is a comfort to me and I don't like running it down too much under normal circumstances, that said I bet my storecupboard is nothing compared to some now.

I finished a biotin ogx shampoo. It is ok.
It is great having a stash in as I don't have to go shopping for stuff. I don't want to expose anyone potentially or be exposed to the virus if possible.
I have a lot of basics of shampoo, handwash, toothpaste and bodywash. It has saved me the pressure of getting stuff.
I have always a good stash of food in. I like to keep a pantry of dry goods like bean, lentils, rice pasta, spices, sauces and tins. I try and buy at a good price. It saves me from using convenience foods if I can open a tin of lentils and bulk up a dinner. My cupboard at the best of times would have a lot of "In case of hurricane, storms and nuclear attack foods." Right now I don't want to visit a supermarket if at all possible. I just need to be creative.

Marc Jacobs Infamous lipstick is done. I really love this colour. Did swatch it on my hand and compared it to others in my collection but don't have any dupes. One day I will repurchase. Keeping it real, working at home with full face on. x
Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge. I pledge to only buy when I run out of a product that is not already in my stash no matter what wonderful emails land in in my Inbox or threads I read on MSE re: glitches!

uuEpiderm Cream 500ml - this is for very dry skin conditions but is another that DD just never finished, according to the prescription label on the bottle we've had it since 2013. It was fine though as it's in one of those air tight pumps, it actually does a good job but is just boring to use. I have 2 more bottles this size of similar products and a 500g tub to get through.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler
