No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries September 2021

The Ordinary Caffeine Solution Eye Serum - This is a great value for money however not sure whether it "works".
I don't have a lot of dark circles so maybe it is harder for me to see a difference. This is my usual experience with eye creams though.
I'd perhaps buy it again at some point but for now, replaced with an Origins eye cream from the stash.

DHC Deep Cleansing Oil 200ml - I was ordering some Sukin moisturiser from Look Fantastic for DS and DH (I normally buy this from a large health food shop in town but I was there on a Sunday and they weren't open and H&B only stock a few Sukin items), DD wanted a couple of The Ordinary products and as she gets a 22% student discount I bought the cleansing oil, I shouldn't have but it will last a long time and is very nice.

I have been more spendy in all areas this month than I have for months, we've been going out a lot more now as we have finished the work on the house for a while, lots more to do but we needed a break, we hadn't been buying much apart from boring things like wood, screws, tools etc so it has been nice to buy decor items, a few clothing items and some toiletries.  Needs to stop now, just what we actually need.

7 by Autumn update

MAC Live the genie life DONE

Too Faced Silk Teddy - i've decided to get tid of this.  In the pan it was workable but now that I have depotted it I'm finding it too shimmery.  Have swapped in Too Faced Push up from the same palette.  To finish.

Benefit Hoola DONE

Colourpop Champagne Miami DONE

Hourglass Edit 4 collectively to hit pan

Rituals handcream 

Essie cuticle scrub

And so, this challlenge is finished.  Not much of a success.  However, I do have a few items with pan in that I want to knuckle downand on finish by Christmas, if anyone cares to join me in a Finish 6 by Christmas Project?

Products:-

Bare Minerals Mineral Veil.  This is a gimmee as the sifter is already removed however I also have a couple of pots of Bare Mineral powder foundation that I want to use as face powder so will rotate them into this Project to try and move out. 

Bare Minerals loose eyeshadow called Heart.  Again, the sifter has been removed and I want to finish it.

MAC No Ordinary Lamp (Princess Jasmine palette).  This has been depotted.  I wear this colour and the BM one above together.

Too Faced Push Up.  Admittedly, I didn't reach for this during the last challenge however I do have pan so need to work on it.

Bite Dirty Chai lip lacquer.  I can see gaps so let's hope it can go.

Laura Geller Kiss lipstick.  One of my oldest, if not the oldest, lipstick in my collection.  Will perservere.  Would be nice if it was gone by Christmas.

I've done a new list. 

I use the S&G eyeshadow for my brows so I doubt I will finish it but it already has a lot of pan so you never know, I've put the lipgloss in the car to replace the lipstick that I finished this month, it is nice but I can't use lipgloss when I am out and about because of my hair sticking to it - it drives me crazy.

My 7 by Christmas list

1.  Revolution Foundation Stick - b/f from last challenge

2. Soap & Glory dark brown eyeshadow from a quad

3. Stila Eyeshadow in a dark matt pink/brown (this is a tiny pan taken from a palette) - b/f from last challenge

4. Brillo lipgloss in a pale coral colour

5. Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara mini - b/f from last challenge

6. Model Co Cream Blush - would like to hit pan on this - b/f from last challenge

7. Smiths Rosebud Salve - b/f from last challenge

Hi

Another update for September

UU Molton Brown Milk Soap
Organic All in One Multi Purpose Balm
Avon Suncare Sensitive Face and Body Cream SPF50
Body Shop Satsuma Soap
Weleda Almond Oil

Total 102

Brie

UU

Vaseline Intensive Care body lotion

(& well sort of)
L'Occitaine Lavender hand cream.  It's lush and lovely and I will buy again when I see it at a decent price but this one was bought a looooooonnnnng time ago and was smelling a bit off, little actual fragrance left though still nice on the skin.  It was down to the "squish out the last dregs" stage so I don't think I've been very wasteful.  

OH is quietly furious with me for insisting on using up things rather than buying something nice when spotted in the shops.  I am quietly furious about the clutter in the bathroom and various other places because things get bought a week after another product has just been opened to be used.  Might need to start a companion thread for the masses of cleaning products that we have. (non of which is ever dish soap. why???)
