No Buying Unnecessary Toiletries June 2024

Comments

  • Malaga Wine looks a great classic colour, and well done on finishing polish!  I have still yet to finish one  :D

    UU
    • Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Capsule Ampoule (100ml): finished a serum finally!  After having had to be so careful this last year- yay me!  After an initial false alarm where I thought this might have trigggered an allergic reaction (it didn't), this has been really good for my skin- I do think my skin has been looking brighter and less blotchy. I replaced this the other week, so new one ready to go.

    Uus:

    Origins hand cream - Complimentary travel bag toiletry - WNB, nothing special.

    The Ordinary Natural moisturising factors cream - GWP, WMBA, basic but does the trick.

    Stella McCartney Pop EDP - WNBA, glad I did not pay full price as it had no longevity. Repurposed as bathroom spray.

    Setting up house has actually forced me my use stash as I have no spare cash to waste. Haven't bought any treats in ages.Job contract also ends this month so gonna have to be frugal for awhile.

    E.L.F hydrating concealer - WMBA, used it as a light foundation. Lasted about ages with weekly use, so great value. Only negative that it slightly creases round the eyes.

    Ins: 

    Nivea invisible sun spray 

    Some basics to keep in my travel toiletry bag:

    Sure deodorant stick 

    Soft and gentle deodorant spray

    2 UUs 

    Faith in Nature shower gel. Already repurchased.

    Ameliorite cream - sample size- 75ml I think. Too runny and smelt like Yankee Candle Baby Powder candle. Came in goody bag. WNBA.

    Hit pan in Maybelline Molten Rose highlighter although think this is more to do with this crumbling on its own than usage.

    My updated PP List
    Lacura hand cream
    Indeed lip balm
    Eucerin eye cream -tube cut open
    Q&A Amino acid moisturiser - tube cut open
    Q&A Snow Algae moisturiser- scraping the sides of the jar
    Bath & Body Works Coconut Waikiki Shower gel
    ABC Body lotion
    Burberry My Burberry perfume DONE

    UU Burberry My Burberry perfume - this is a favourite. Next fragrance that I want to pan completely is my bottle of Bath & Body Works Into The Night body Mist.

    With 7 days left I think the items with progress noted next to them can be finished.  The shower gel and ABC body lotion may be done as well.

    I dont think I am close with any other makeup. I pulled out my Urban Decay Naked Cyber palette this month and have loved using it.

  • UU
    • Nivea Black & White Invisible Original anti-perspirant - Travel size 35ml

    INS
    • Batiste Dry Shampoo- mini: replacement for travel one. The floral one.
    • Boots Ingredients Salicylic acid cleanser: To clean my makeup sponge and brushes, since that other "cleanser" was NOT a cleanser
    • Deodorant- travel size: For weekend away.  Can't tell which one from my receipt and can't be bothered to go upstairs to check

    And another pan in my BPerfect Antidote palette- shade Venom- a nice goldy green shimmer. That makes 4 pans this month which is quite fun!

    Has been a slow one for UUs though!

    Ooof not a good month for me- 17 INS- SEVENTEEN!!!!!!!!!  12 were replacements, 1 x unnecessary/new item, and 4 were free sample sachets I didn't know I was getting. 

    Only 11 UUs, though one was a serum and one was an essence so quite pleased with that at least!
