No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries June 2022

Martha Hill Honey Treatment Cream 50ml - this is the night cream of the honey set Martha Hill do, it was nice for the money, I have another in the stash but for now I will be using up another moisturiser as both day and night cream.

Months end for me, so here's my summary for June:

• IN: 16 (£91.45 - 8 replacements, 5 unnecessary and 3 new type of products)
• Out: 13 (10 x UU, 2 x GA, 1 x throw away. Of the UUs, 6 were full size, 4 were samples)
• Balance:  -3 

Oophs, so I gained more products than I used up this month, and spent near a hundred pound, so almost my worst month since starting doing this.  March was my actual worst just by a little- 12 products for £93.12 so less items for more money that month.

I am planning on doing a little haul in August as a treat (since Aug is a v busy/stressful time for my job and I need some joy), but I put some money aside last month and this month to fund it, so it won't be a shock to the bank account when I do so.  This feels like progress as I used to just splurge without thinking!  The reason I'll order a few bits is it's from YesStyle, so coming all the way from Korea- I don't want to do multiple orders so I will get a few things I want to try all in one go.  I'm going to restrict it to things that I cannot order from UK sites (ie things I can't easily order one at a time when I run out of something).  I know the point of doing the no-buy is to stop doing stuff like this and reduce the stash, not gain more, so I do feel a little guilty about doing this!!  But also, it's all a learning experience and I am seeing vast improvement in my spending habits, so overall I am pleased with how I'm doing.

Hahahahaha and this is how we justify spending too much money on toiletries!

Stops lurking and posts....

Think I need to join the thread. Sorted through my make up last night, and have 16 new mascaras on the stash.  Not yet dared add up the rest...

Welcome

So I’ve “flirted” with joining this, but was a bit half hearted.  The past two evenings I’ve been slowly sorting through my huge stash of makeup, skincare & toiletries. 

I’m not going to put a list up here, because it’s simply too long to type, I’m sure it runs into the thousands.  I have a perchant for the high end….
I’ve sorted by type into my big merchants chest for skincare & my big bedroom cupboard for toiletries, I st
last know exactly what I have. 

There will be no more purchases of anything until I am down to the last bottle, tube, pan of something.

Boots curl cream, wnba, felt that it was quite drying.

Must do better next month.

Just updating the last of my June UU's:

Sheet Mask: used a 4th one up last night so hit that goal on the PP list.  Still so many to go!

Caudalie Anti-Wrinkle SPF 50: Another one off of the PP list.  WNBA as it's a bit think and the scent was a little irritating to my eyes

Urban Decay Perversion Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner: WBA, love this stuff and have replaced with the last one in my stash that I got last time there was a sale.

So for June, all in all not bad progress, and will roll over the last 2 to July.

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+

The July thread is up.

I had a few more UUS over the last few days:-

Superdrug nail polish remover pads.  I don't like these but will repurchase for travel, when needed as it's easier than taking cotton wool and a bottle of remover.

A pack of facial wipes.  I was feeling lazy on Wednesday night and pulled these out to wipe my face but they had dried up.

Bare Minerals Boss lip lacquer.  I made my feelings known in the post about splutterers.

I bought a replacement ELF concealer,in readiness.
