UU
Lush Bubble Bar
Elvive Conditionor
I had my Lush order from the Boxing Day sale finally come but half didn’t arrive as they oversold. So they have me £20 voucher to say sorry. I got a couple of bubble bars and a bath bomb.I’ve now got a nice stash to use. I didn’t buy any last year and waited till the sale so I bit gutted didn’t get it all but there’s still a few months of weekly baths there.I’m still working my way through my Project Pan list. Have added all to my daily use drawer so been really easy to use. I will be approaching empties on a few soon and got to resost the urge to replace those specific items. They are all £20-40 each and I’ve got similar. But I’ve got to concentrate on getting my
monies worth out of what I’ve got first 💪🏻💪🏻4 -
@dolly84 it never fully comes off with balm/oil- I use waterproof mascara and even if it seems like I have everything off, inevitably I wake up in the morning with a bit of panda eye! Sometimes I also like to 'loosen it up' a bit before I use my balm/oil with the Nivea. Just need to be more mindful that the wipes are very spongey!Jan Grocery Challenge 2023: £181.18/£400

- Carex Hand Gel in Love Hearts (50ml): Not sure whether this should be counted here, but I'd count hand wash, so why not sanitiser? Got a load of fun smelling sanitisers for our wedding which was in C-times, and had a load left over as we overbought. Don't actually like the Love Heart one, its SO perfumey, and sadly this is the one we have most left off

Yesterday another Laura Mercier Caviar stick broke on me. Well actually it broke a little while ago but Yesterday the remaining product fell out onto the floor. This was only a mini size and was a GWP. Still, I've purchased this product in the past and each one has broken.Back for the No Buying Toiletries challenge.

@VALM that's so sad it fell on the floor! Assume there was no salvaging it?
UU- Sure 72H anti-perspirant spray- 250ml- Invisible Aqua: Yeah, nice, seems to work as well as any deo and doesn't smell offensively floral or anything, bought many times. Have some in stash so no buying required right now.
- Tigi Bed Head Beach Bound Protection Spray: Woah I just searched my emails for when I bought this, and November 2020! I've been using it before blow-drying my hair, but technically it's for when you're out and about. Smelt nice, and not too expensive- I'd buy it again. As you can tell by how old it is, I don't do much with my hair tbh!

If you are signed up to Body Shop card/scheme thing you get a £5 voucher for your birthday, so I popped in there on Thursday and picked up this:- The Body Shop- Lemon Purifying Hand Wash: We'll easily use it up and also it wasn't over £5 so I didn't have to spend any of my own money, which was important!

uuAvon Glycerine Hand Cream - this is nice, WBA. I do think I have another in the stash.Lush Snow Fairy Bubble Bar - this was DD's, it was nice and bubbly, I used about a third in one bath and the rest in last nights bath so I think these are expensive really.

Finished a Dior Dream Skin skin perfector. I only buy the refill. I love that product. Have a new one waiting to be opened. I've heard rumours that the formula was changed, so I'm a bit afraid.
