133 What Products I have Backups for

As a busy person, you are always using your product and often don’t have time to go through and see what you have and haven’t got. When I am in a shop and I see something, I used on offer I buy it, cause the truth is, you will need a new one at some point but when you need it, it may be full price.

I always try to have a spare of my regular everyday products, otherwise, you will get near to the end and must go to the shop to get more. If you have a spare one you can just get it whenever you go to the shop instead of specifically having to set time aside to go and buy your replacement.

Another way of doing this is if you know you are getting towards the end buy another one next time you see it. There are five things I have backs up for as we speak.

Deodorant

The one I use is not the cheapest one available, but I love it, it works, and people have even started using it after borrowing mine. So I tend to buy one when I get paid unless I already have a spare, when they are on offer or if I have a voucher for one. That way I am not on the last day of the month with £5 to my name and walking to a shop to buy a £3.50 can of deodorant.

Face Wipes

They tend to be slightly cheaper if they are bought in bulk because I use non-fragrance baby wipes to remove the bulk of my makeup. Also, they are great for cleaning up spilt makeup, spilt drinks, well pretty much anything really. They are really handy to have to wipe a computer screen or my phone. If you do not usually have these handy, the next time you are in the shop, buy a packet and leave them in a drawer you regularly walk past and see how much you use them.

Moisturizing Serum

Because the one I am trying out and enjoying is usually around £15 but was on offer for £8. I was getting through it very quickly, so I bought a backup ready for when the one I was using ran out.

Witch Skin Treatment Gel

Again, I have a backup because the one I am using is close to running out, so I didn’t want to be in a rush to get to the shop just because I ran out of this. I just grabbed another tube while I was buying a drink from Superdrug on my lunch break at work.

Foundation

Last but not least, is the foundation, now I don’t usually have a backup for this as they tend to last a good amount of time, usually at least 3 months, maybe a lot longer as I do not wear it every day. In fact, the one I am currently using was bought in February and I am not even halfway through, so it is definitely lasting longer than 3 months. Again when I went to buy a new one because my one had run out it was on offer so I bought two.
