I hit pan in an eyeshadow from my Smashbox Full Exposure palette. Will still be working on this next year.
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!

uuCowshed Salt Scrub - this was nice and did smell lovely but it is so expensive and quite a bit of it gets dropped in the shower, it was gifted to me though so I can't complain. WNBDebt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

One UU from yesterday:
Bumble and Bumble Invisible Oil Heat/UV Primer 60ml - WPBA. This is really nice and my hair feels amazing after I use it to dry or straighten my hair. I love the scent as well

GABloom Pink Peony & Cashmere EDT - I think that was the name of it. DD had ordered some presents for her friend and one seems to be lost in the post, she finishes school today so I gave her this to go with the gift she already had and then if the other turns up she can give it later.Debt Free and now a saver, conscious consumer, low waste lifestyler

My updated PP list. I have started using the body lotion and it is only 100ml so that should be finished, I have barely touched the perfume, the hair mask has 1 or 2 uses left, I've no chance with the foot cream this month, I have about a third of a bottle of the shower gel left so that may get finished.dolly84 said:December PP ListLe Soft Stick Perfume in ArtistSoap & Glory Righteous Butter - b/f from NovemberMandara Spa Butter Collection Body LotionL'oreal Ever Riche Nourishing Hair MaskPeppermint Foot CreamMiss Sporty Dr Balm Lip BalmPhilosophy Amazing Grace Shower Gel 480ml
