No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries June 2022

ruby_eskimo

Couple of UU this weekend:

• Garnier Oil Infused Micellar Water: Woah, this was a long haul product.  I liked it to start with, but after a while the scent started getting on my nerves to the point where I just couldn't stand using it for months.  But finally it's gone.  Has been replaced with a Nivea micellar water that isn't as effective but at least I can use it without it feeling like a chore.  WNBA
• First Aid Beauty Retinol Eye Cream: Was ok, didn't really notice too much difference when it comes to the retinol aspect but it was nicely moisturising and didn't irritate my eyes.  It is really expensive though so WNBA and have replaced with something cheaper in the stash (Versed Retinoid eye balm)
  

Updated PP list for June below:

Mac Lipgloss
Garnier Micellear water
Cantu body cream
4 sheet masks
First Aid Beauty eye cream
NYX brow gel
Honey foot mask
Shea Moisture leave in conditioner
TBS Avocado body butter
Caudalie SPF 50+

VALM

Updated PP List

Perfance face mask
Bath & Body Works Pink Chiffon Body cream
Orly base coat 
Bath & Body Works Hope hand cream 

The Inkey List Vitamin C Serum.
Urban Decay Setting Spray mini
Kat Burkhi Peptide cream mini.

Seche Vite top coat.  There's a bit left but I can't get good application on all nails so considering it done.  I have a mini bottle of OPI Rapid Dry Top Coat to use next.

I will have some INs.  I ordered the ABC body wash.  The kit was really good value - 2.5 litres worth. 

I have also placed a MAC order.  I wanted the Lunar Luck palette when it was first released but only saw lack lustre reviews of it however it is on sale and together with a further discount I got it for nearly half price.  I also ordered a new paint pot and lipgloss that were also part of the Holiday collection and reduced together with  a lipgloss that looks similar to KVD Lovecraft which she doesn't make anymore.  Of course, this qualified me for a GWP.  These always get me.

Have a UU after my shower last night:

Cantu Shea Butter Body Cream: loved the effect that this has on my skin but it's so hard to actually squeeze out of the tube!  Had to cut the tube open after about 5 uses because it's so thick and just not good for a squeeze tube, but then the packaging wasn't flexible enough to be able to squeeze it all out.  Have quite a few other body lotions to use before I need to buy another one so at the moment WNBA.

Updated PP list below.  I'm literally slathering on the lipgloss today in the hope it will be used up as much as I can today.

Mac Lipgloss
Garnier Micellear water
Cantu body cream
4 sheet masks
First Aid Beauty eye cream
NYX brow gel
Honey foot mask
Shea Moisture leave in conditioner
TBS Avocado body butter
Caudalie SPF 50+

UU

• Sample sachet- L'Oreal Elvive No Haircut Cream: this was a free sample.  I wouldn't buy it, didn't seem to do anything.
• Batiste Dry Shampoo- Brunette: HG, love this stuff- need to buy a replacement.

Used up a mini Whish almond body butter last night that was a freebie.  Loved the scent but it wasn't really a body butter, more of a gel lotion that wasn't that moisturising on my skin.  Wouldn't buy it, have replaced with another mini from the stash.

VALM

3 more UUS

Benefit Bad Gal Bang mascara mini.  HG.  More in stash.

Tesco nail polish remover.  Replaced with pads that I got for my holiday from Superdrug.

The Inkey List Niacinadmide.  HG.  More in stash.

I did got and buy a bottle of Seche Vite top coat yesterday as the OPI one is just not glossy enough and not as fast drying.  Will use this as a base coat.  Was good and didn't buy anything else whilst in Sally's.  Yay, me. 

VALM

Oh, I remember I also threw away a lip exfoliator.  Tried to use it but it dried my lips out.  I think the brand was LOV.  It came from a Subscription box.

Korres Japonese Rose Shower Gel 250ml - nice scent, I think I may have another in the stash, or it may be a body lotion.

VALM

UU mini tub of Clinique Take the Day Off Cleansing Balm.  This was nice however I still prefer the Body Shop one.  Don't want to switch over to Clinique as I'll get drawn into Bonus Time GWP shannannigans.

I prefer the TBS cleansing balm too @VALM as it's cheaper and does the job just as well.  Plus there's always a code and the £5 vouchers from the Love your body membership make it very cost effective 👍

Have a couple of UU to report:

• Mac Lipglass: This was a labour of love.  I don't really like lipgloss but have quite a few from years ago that have been gathering dust and never opened.  So I've started trying to work my way through and now I've finally finished one.  WNBA.
  
• Delarom Aquacomfort Cream: This was a mini lotion that I used as a body lotion.  Not great at moisturising on the body but didn't want to use it on my face either 🤷‍♀️
  

So updated PP list now looks like this:

Mac Lipgloss
Garnier Micellear water
Cantu body cream
4 sheet masks
First Aid Beauty eye cream
NYX brow gel
Honey foot mask
Shea Moisture leave in conditioner
TBS Avocado body butter
Caudalie SPF 50+

Quite happy with progress so far this month!
