No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries December 2022

Just updating with my last UU's of the year:

Lush Hot Toddy Shower Gel 100g: love the scent of this and always try to pick up one each year they release it

Lush Crystal Snow Ballistic: Really liked the scent on this (like a murray mint) and it definitely softened my skin

Roloxin Lift Face Mask: a sample that I've had for a while, didn't really notice a difference on the lifting side of things but it did hydrate my skin

Lush Snow Fairy Body Lotion: a free sample I got the last time I was in store and I really really enjoyed this.  It made an actual difference to my skin and made it look and feel more supple

Garnier Ultralift Eye Sheet Mask: Used these while getting ready for Christmas day, they did the job of refreshing my eyes.

The next few were samples I used up while staying with family over Christmas - all were ok, but didn't get enough use to make a proper judgement:

Dr Jaart Ceramidin Serum
Dr Jaart Ceramidin Cream
Dr Jaart Ceramidin Liquid
Kiehl's Facial Fuel
Clarins One Step Cleanser

Aveeno Moisturising Creamy Oil: This was my HG body moisturiser but I think they've changed the formula slightly as it kind of pilled up on my skin.  

Jurlique Rosewater Balancing Mist: Another face mist I've had open for ages and decided to use up while travelling.  Liked the scent of it but don't think it actually does anything so not worth the extortionate price tag

Revolution x Sali Hughes Clean sheet Morning Cleanser: Got this as a sample in a little kit when I ordered from Revolution a few months ago for some more eye makeup removing pads.  It was ok, but not great.  Felt a little too vaseline like on my face and left a film.

Nivea Pearl Spray on Deo: Was ok, did the job.

Nars Afterglow lip balm in Orgasm: Love these balms, and loved the finish of this one and would repurchase if I needed to (I have way too many lip products to work through...)

So my PP list for December looks like this

Nars Afterglow Lipbalm 
4 Sheet Masks 
UD Chopper eyeshadow
1 Perfume sample 
Glamglow Thirsty Mud Mask 
Pixi Glow Tonic 
Avon Skin so Soft Dry Body Oil 
The Body Shop Raspberry Whipped Body Butter 
Apothaka Barrier Repair Serum 
Glossier Milky Jelly Cleanser 

Which I think is pretty good progress!  

My final tally for 2022 is:

287 UU's worth £2156.58
72 IN's worth £921.83

Again, pretty good progress I think!

Can I ask why this is your holy grail eye cream? Thank you
