Can we have a budget princessing thread?!

[Mooey89]

I’m trying to cut back 🙈. But also, at 31 I’m feeling like I’m looking older and older each day.
My first stop is increasing my water intake and fruit and veg.
I’m obsessed with a brightening cleanser from boots that is £5.
Anyone else want to join me??

I will. I've just bought those razor things that you use above and below your eyebrows to get rid of the fine hairs after you've tweezed. I learnt how to shape my own eyebrows during lockdown but these razors give a nice professional finish. And cheaper than threading. Also recommend home dying.
What I do need to start doing is dressing better and not waiting until my diet is finished to make an effort. Also to wear more of my jewellery - I have lots of nice necklaces etc and wear about a tenth of what I own.

Ooh that sounds interesting. Is it one of those that you can use for a dermaplanning type effect?

Oh I'm in. I have so many creams and potions and never use them. Would love to be a new me for Christmas.

Ok! Me too. So many little pots/samples/creams that are unused. So I’m going to commit to skincare morning and night and use up the things I have.

I don't know tbh Mooey. My sister just told me to buy it for my eyebrows.

Ooh... what’s the brightening cleanser?

@tracycon it’s this:

I use it on my whizzy face brush and it’s really nice!

Thanks. I fancy the moisturiser too!

Do it and update me!

Come to the beauty hoarders thread if you want motivation and empathy in using things up. I’ve used up nearly 100 products this year - ok, some are samples and minis, but I’ve created so much space. I’ve bought maybe two or three things, which is unheard of.

I am doing twice weekly face masks to use up what I have and I’m really enjoying it.

Also bought some Fiona Cairns rose scented bath foam in Waitrose yesterday, big bottle for about a fiver, and I am really looking forward to a bath and a face mask and a Diet Coke later.

Ooh @WellTidy I might hop on over!

Tiny bottle of hair oil by Hask, only need a 5p size on my hair ( shoulder length ) .I use it as a pre shampoo treatment , DD uses it after ( she has thick long hair )

I like The Ordinary skin products that I've used so far ( moisturiser , Vit C , Squalene cleanser )
Konjac Sponge - lasts 3 months , can use with/without cleanser

Bought eyebrow dye and new nail polish today. Also started wearing some of my nicer jumpers, even though I was only seen by the staff in Superdrug and Morrisons
