My July was rather boring with only a few things getting used up. I've very very nearly used up a compact powder (and already repurchased it) that will hopefully be gone during August. I had it when there's only a little bit left around the edges of the pan and you can barely get it out....


used up:
  • Geek and Gorgeous Liquid Hydration spray: bought this full size after having had the smaller version previously, it’s quite nice. Got some other facial spray to use up but I might rebuy the full size again.
  • Garnier oat shampoo: loved this for a long time but will not repurchase for now as it is rather heavy for my fine hair .
  • Balea med sensitive anti-dandruff shampoo. Was a free gift, I liked this and it really calmed down my scalp. I’ve already repurchased this.
  • Nø Cosmetics Daily shield facial spray. This is a hypochlorous acid spray, first I ever tried. Great to spritz under the arms during hot weather, it does help against sweaty smells even when only using natural deodorant. Would repurchase, but have bought now a cheaper drugstore brand (the isana one listed below)
  • essence anti shine oil control papers. Have already repurchased, these are really cheap and do the job well.

New in:
Loreal True Match compact powder
essence anti shine oil control papers
Isana hypochlorous acid spray
Dove beauty bar two pack

And just like that another month has finished and it's time to share my trash!

I'm getting really annoyed that the makeup products I've hit pan on aren't disappearing quicker and the other products I've been using consistently haven't hit pan yet. It's a conspiracy!

Empties for the month are:

Baby Dove Fragrance Free Head to Toe Wash [Purchased and opened at some point in 2025] - I really like this, I use it as an intimate wash. TMI but ever since having my youngest, and possibly because of perimenopause, I've had an issue with a sweaty groin! This keeps everything fresh without angering the 🐱 Already repurchased

Soap and Glory The Righteous Butter Body Butter [Christmas 2025, opened Christmas 2025] - I feel like the scent of this has changed from what I remember. It's okay, just not what I wanted. I won't be repurchasing.

Dove Raspberry & Rose Whole Body Deodorant Spray [Purchased May 2026, opened May 2026] - This did f-all, I won't be repurchasing.

Dove Raspberry Rendezvous Body Scrub [Purchased Feb 2026, opened April 2026] - I enjoy the Dove scrubs, they're creamy but finely gritty so it doesn't feel like I'm trying to resurface my skin. This scent was nice but it was neither raspberry or rose, more a buttery pastry tart with a raspberry-ish filling. Not really my kind of smell so I won't repurchase.

Dove Original Beauty Cream Bar [Christmas 2025, April 2026] - Can't go wrong with a Dove bar soap. I swear the scent of this has changed though. It wasn't as creamy as I remember.

Dove Raspberry Rendezvous Body Wash [Feb 2026, April 2026] - I enjoy Dove Body washes, they have a nice thickness to them and I don't find them drying. As with the scrub, the smell was kind of weird so I won't repurchase this particular scent.

Some new purchases this month replacing used up products 😊

Mixa Urea Cica Repair+ Renewing Cream (£6.66)
Dove Body and Mind Serum Body Wash (£3.96)
Garnier Ceramide Nourishing Body Butter (£4.99)
Dove Exfoliating Body Scrub in Crushed Macadamia & Rice Milk (£8)
Dove Classic Fresh Anti-perspirant (£1.70)
Nala's Baby Nighttime Oil in Vanilla Cloud (£4.30)

YTD Totals:
Decluttered - 14
Used - 49
Pans - 1
New - 40 (£408.85)

I always forget about this thread and I just finished a body scrub too.

Tropic body polish - Tropic is a bit like Avon and we have a neighbour that sells it. I don’t bother with most stuff but I buy this on repeat and use it every 7-10 days. It’s so gentle and mega hydrating.

Hari Haru oil cleanser - Nice enough but doesn’t deal with waterproof mascara. Wouldn’t repurchase.

Beauty Pie super healthy skin body crème - I buy this on repeat, I smell is out of this world and it feels like such a treat. However BP have recently made changes and have gone mega downhill so won’t be renewing my membership. There is always tons on Vinted so will take my chances buying from there.

Nivea Love Sunshine shower gel - it’s the smell, it smells like holidays and I adore it. Only £1.30 at Superdrug on offer at the moment so bought loads more for me and treated my daughter as she loves it too. Let’s face it, you can’t go wrong with a Nivea shower gel.

Would love to know your current thoughts on Beauty Pie? I used to have a subscription but cancelled about 3 years ago, but was considering going back as there are a few things I really miss (Detox shampoo, Happy Face moisturiser, face powder and some of the serums).

I bloody love their products but in the last month or so it’s gone to tit. They change their app, products are discontinued or out of stock. Look at recent trust pilot reviews. I just renewed automatically and doing a chargeback because they don’t reply to me

Niche comment perhaps but if you ever feel like you’re not getting or staying fresh even after washing in sweaty areas (post partum was a killer) a wash or two with Hibiscrub does wonders. It kills bacteria, yeast, skin infections, viruses etc and stops them reforming for hours. Obviously you can’t get it in intimate areas as it kills the good bacteria too, but it’s strong in a good way for anywhere else that needs a reset when hormones are going haywire.
