No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries - May

UU Radox raspberry bath bomb - this smelt amazing and made the bath smell good but wasn't super fancy or anything, not particularly moisturising or anything either WMBA but prob won't.

My Maria Nila hair stuff came from Sally's and I LOVE IT. Just tried it and the mask was interesting, I like the scent which is a relief, it's very fresh.

A few INs:

Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Gel Exfoliant 100ml
Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 8% AHA Gel Exfoliant 30ml 
Paula’s Choice The UnScrub 15ml

My skin feels a bit dull and in need of some exfoliation lately, hopefully these help.

I finished take the day off clinique  eye make up remover mini. It is ok but have some free gifts to use up.
Threw away 2 half open tubes of toothpaste.  Colgate cheap ones. It feels like detergent  and  never choose them.

Total 102

UU
Yves Rocher Magnolia and White Tea shower gel 50ml.  Didn't really smell of anything, WNBA
Yves Rocher Serum Vegetal.  30ml, nice enough but others in the stash to use before purchasing anymore serums.
Garnier Charcoal oil-free facewipes 25 count.  Like them but don't know if they even still make this line.

I think I prefer  citrus body washes.  Either that or I have to use up shower gels before the scents fade.

If you wear silver jewellery toothpaste is fab for cleaning it, you just need a dab on an old toothbrush and some water.

Been to ALDI today. Aside from groceries I was looking to replace my Lacura handcream. It was not in stock but I got the one containing glycerine, a pot of Pink Clay mask, a bottle of no 28 fragrance and a Black Coconut candle which is very reminiscent of the Yankee Candle one. In TESCO I got razor blades, deodorant for Emma, hair bobbles (none of which count towards this challenge) and a bottle of E45 super rich cream. I have 2 B&BW shower gels in stash. Until I can repurchase B&BW products at a reasonable price I’ll buy alternatives hence the purchase of the E45 which should go with any other fragrances.

Dolly brilliant tip. I don't  really have jewellery but I will share it with others.

I tossed out a medicated shampoo. Its finished  but it seems to dry out the  hair,  a lot snapped so not using it  again. 
Tossed out a lipstick by sleek. Lovely shade for a wall but too pink when on. It looks  very drab and frumpy. It's not flattering

I use toothpastes I dont like to brush my nails, brightens them nicely.
A couple of UUs from me:
TBS Vitamin E Moisture Cream - I love Vitamin E series but this product is not moisturising enough for me so I always end up topping it up. WNBA.
No7 Protect & Perfect Intense Facial Sun Protection 10 ml - Trying to reduce my sample stash. This is a good product but breaks me out often. It was a GWP.
Gatineau Probiotics Advanced Rejuvenating Cream, 15 ml: This was either from a LF beauty box or from an advent calendar. Very good product. I loved the scent of it. I'm not sure I would pay this much for a facial cream though.
Trilogy Rosehip Cream Cleanser 30 ml: This was part of a set from TK Maxx and it was very moisturising, especially after using retinol.
Sold 3 x Clarins products on eBay and added1 Davidoff Cool Water sample in the parcel. This has been a good month and I will try to use more samples next month.

No7 Protect &Perfect used to break me out horribly too, I gave a tube to DH and it had the same effect on him.

May has been a good month for me, I've used quite a few things up and said goodbye to products that just don't work for me, I find this hard but there is no point hanging on to them and using once or twice every few months.  I've had a general declutter of other items in the house too as I try to move towards a more minimal life.
