No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries February 2023

Ethique Matcha, Lime & Lemongrass Body Wash Bar - this did not have any particular scent just a generic toilet soap scent, on the plus side it didn't dry my skin and lasted for an eternity.  WNBA but I do have two more bars in the stash.

Hair Mousse - this is just a cheapie Sainsbury's own brand, the one I have (the same one) is about to finish and it works really well, it's volumising and holds curl and makes my hair feel thick and lovely - all for £1.50

I hit pan on Naked in the Naked palette today.

I'm the same as you @VALM and @dolly84 when it comes to lipsticks - if it smells ok and the texture hasn't changed then it's good in my book.  I still have the lipstick I wore on my wedding day 7 years ago and it's fine.  Really want to use it up this year though!

Had a couple of UU's over the weekend:

Wild deodorant refill - love these for 90% of the time when I'm working at home.  They smell great and do the job.  Have replaced with my last one from the stash and should have a refill order coming next month.

Missha Lemon sheet mask - have a couple more of these to use.  Lots of essence and they're easy to apply.

Glossier Super Bounce serum - not sure I noticed much difference with this but it was innofensive and seemed to do an ok job at hydrating.  This was a mini size but I wouldn't repurchase, think there are better things out there.  Have replaced with another mini (biossance copper peptide)

Revolution Rose Bar Bath Fizzer - this was ok, did the job of scenting the water quite nicely but nothing special.  Was something small I picked up to get an order to free shipping...

Ok, good good, glad I'm not being completely irresponsible with my lippies then!   You watch beauty youtube or google it and they're like 'throw it away after 2 years max!'- blimey, would have like 2 lippies left if I did that!!

One UU this morning:

• The Body Shop Festive Berry sugar scrub:  this was part of a gift set I got the other Christmas.  Am not really a body scrub person, so I've had this sat in my bathroom a while unopened.  It's a bit chunky/scratchy so I wouldn't really recommend this one.

Korres Rose Jasmine Body Milk 200ml - this is the last body lotion from my original and very large stash.  Lovely scent but I've found I prefer a body cream with a high content of glycerine.

I wore a Bourjois concealer under my eyes yesterday and it looked fine, I wore it for work today and looked in the mirror mid morning and to my horror it looked completely yellow in the lighting.  It was so bad I am just going to get rid so...

Bourjois Healthy Mix Concealer

Another UU to report:

Versed Retinoid Eye Balm - to be honest I didn't notice much of a difference with this. To be honest I never notice much of a difference with most eye creams.  Have been using this just at night so now I'm just using my day time eye cream at night too (Innisfree Jeju Orchid Eye Cream)

Is that the tinted one? I have one, unopened, but bought a few years ago at least. Had it before and remember liking it for gentle coverage as well as hydration... right now I use Origins Ginzing SPF40 which is quite similar in the effects.

On holiday, so I'm on a mission to use up all of the sample sachets that accumulate.   So far five cleansers, nothing memorable, they cleaned my face, so they did their job.

UU: the last of the travel size bottle of British Rose Body Wash from the Body Shop.  Nice and it will reappear again as my sons always get me Body Shop products for Christmas and my birthday.

I did buy a nailpolish today.   I was weak and it's raining, so it cheered me up.  Essence, The Final Rose, a nice, nude pink.   I like their colours and the brush is the wide one that I like.

@wondercollie that was me in Jan with a pink sparkly Orly polish- was having a stressful time trying to buy a house, and I had zero resistance.  It makes me smile, so I don't feel too guilty about it!

UU

• OGX Argan oil conditioner:  Not sure when I bought this, not last year as it's not on my sheet.  It's ok, not sure it's all that special.  The shampoo will soon follow this into my empties as its almost done as well.
