No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries September 2020

I replaced my nail colour top coat yesterday too. Had an Orly one but can't get a sufficient amount of product on the brush (though the bottle is half full - grrrrr!). Bought a Barry M one.
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!

Two UUs from the past few days:
Klairs Rich Moist Soothing Tencel Sheet Mask - WBA. I love these sheet masks, very cooling and soothing, but I know they're bad for the environment so I'm not going to purchase again even though I would do. Maybe as a one off treat.
The Body Shop Almond Milk & Honey Shower Cream 60ml - WB as a full size and have done previously. Going to replace with one of the other mini shower gels I got off a relative.

Two UUs from this morning:
Lush Sultana of Soap 90g - WB. I received this as part of a Lush gift set at Christmas. The scent surprised me, I really like even though I didn't think I would. Now I'm out of handwash/soaps, going to have a look for a decent soap bar to use as handwash next.
Maui Moisture Agave Conditioner 385ml - WDBA and have done. My current favourite conditioner. Love how my hair feels after using it. Replaced with the bottle I bought a few weeks ago.

London_baby said:Unfortunately no UUs with these LHJ items but I hope to use up more sunscreen this week!
I just wanted to spread the news of reycling centres available for those awkward products, which cannot be put in normal recycling. Perhaps we can add the links to the sticky post?
Make up products, including eye shadow palettes:
https://www.maybelline.co.uk/recycling
Toothpaste and toothbrushes here (Unfortunately, the website is not the greatest in terms of user interface)
Disposable Contact lenses can also be recycled at your opticians if they are are part of the recycling scheme here
GA 7 samples and 1 full-size product (Elf Illuminating Face Primer) today.ally.5 -
Hurrah!
Finally used up The Ordinary Natural Hydrating Factors . This cream is a simple, fragrance free cream that lasts ages and is very cheap. However, WNBA, as I need something heavier for my dry skin. I would recommend for those with oily skin.4 -
I recently ordered the Colourpop Dream Street eyeshadow palette from Ebay. It arrived yesterday. V. nice. x Still awaiting my Zoya lacquers. There's a problem with distribution.

A few INs today:
The Body Shop Almond Hand & Nail Butter 100ml
The Body Shop Aloe Soothing Eye & Lip Contour Care 15ml
The Body Shop Shea Body Lotion 200ml
To be fair, I did have a £5 off £25 receipt voucher code and a £5 reward that was going to expired, so I saved £10 at least. I'm nearing the end of my current tub of body yogurt, and I need something nourishing for my hands at the moment, and I liked this eye cream when I used it last year4
