No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries January 2023

• Batiste Dry Shampoo= Tropical (400ml): This was a beast- it's huge!  Don't love these regular white ones, prefer the ones with a touch of colour, or fancier 'invisible' ones- but it did the job when I wanted to look vaguely presentable without having to wash my hair.
• Face Theory: Exaglow Serum S10 with Tranexamic Acid, Vitamin C and Liquorice: I liked this product, I think it has helped brighten up my skin and even it out a little.  Already bought my replacement earlier in Jan as I knew it would be done this month and I didn't want to be without it.

Morning all.  Have a few UU's  to report from the weekend:

Farmacy Honey Halo sample: was ok, didn't really see any real difference in using this compared to my usual night cream

TBS Edelweiss serum sample: had a few of these sachets and it's an ok serum but again, haven't used it enough to make a proper assessment of how effective it is

Clarins Double eye serum sample: this stings my eyes but I have a couple more sachets to use so will get through those asap

Jordan Samuel Hydrate serum sample: love this serum, it really does hydrate.  Have used a couple of full sizes before so know it works for me

Oskia Restoration Oil sample: not great, didn't like the scent, took ages to sink in

Lush Bonfire ballistic: loved the scent of this and the crackling effect, plus it came in a muslin cloth so clean up was easy.  Was part of a christmas present so bonus that I didn't have to pay for it!

Missha Lemon sheet mask: working through these.  Have realised I have 17 sheet masks left so should be able to get through those by the end of the year!

TBS Wild Pine Lotion to Oil: didn't like the scent of this at first (too woody and manly for me) but the dry down is beautiful.  Also the mint in it made my skin tingle a little so it was quite refreshing and definitely noticed my skin looking a little glowy and still felt moisturised the next day.  Would repurchase this in the sale if I didn't have hundreds of other body lotions to work my way through.

Had a bath last night and UU LUSH Twilight bath bomb.  So so lovely.

I did pick up another bottle of the Garnier Body Repair moisturiser (the one in the red bottle) as it's still on offer at £3.00 and there was only one left on the shelf.

Another UU in the shower this morning:

Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel: I really don't like the scent of this and yet somehow end up buying it every year 🤣🤷‍♀️  Did the job.  Have replaced with a Faith in Nature one that's been sitting around for a while.

I'm the same as you, not such a fan of Snow Fairy but always end up with some.  I had an accident with a bottle of Faith in Nature shwoer gel I got for Christmas in that i laid it down in my drawer with the cap open and lost the whole bottle worth. That was a !!!!!! to clean out of the drawer.

• Elf Holy Hydration Eye Cream: Don’t think this did much of anything tbh, probably wouldn't buy again.  Got my new Facetheory one to try next!

I am nearing the end of my charcoal mask.  I really fancy trying the Kiehls Turmeric one.  Has anyone tried this?
