Haul: Soap and Glory

Life: 

Soap & Glory have been around for a while now but these are the first things I've bought myself from any of their lines. I smelled a few of the products when they first appeared in supermarkets and didn't like any of the scents, so I wrote them off. But I will buy anything citrus scented so when I heard about Sugar Crush I had to go to Boots, one more time.
 
I am on board with the sweet lime scent.



It was 3 for 2, and I cannot say no to a sale, so I smelled half the bottles on the shelf and found Smoothie Star. I have some weird obsession with lotion in pump bottles so into the basket it went. Also, it smells like cookies. Everybody wins. It said on the side to pair with Rich and Foamous, so I picked that up - and it smells just like Vanilla Cupcake Yankee Candles. They're a holiday release and I've almost burned through mine so I picked up Rich and Foamous as my free item to tide me over when it's gone. 


My last items were the Clinique Liquid Facial Soap in Mild and some cotton ovals. Both staples.


This June I am going on a 30-day no-buy. For the entire month of June I will not spend money on anything except food items and train tickets. The idea is to get a little distance from the consumer rat race and stop wasting time and money on shopping. Irony time: That decision spurred this shopping trip. Nobody wants to run out of shower gel and cleanser on a 30-day no-buy.
