UU
Gilchrist & Soames shampoo 40ml. By OH.
Pantene shampoo 40ml.
All travel sized shampoos will def go on the PP list when I get round to it!

Can't remember if I listed these INs or not: 2 half price Batiste dry shampoo, 1 half price Pump It Up dry shampoo.

I currently have hubby using travel sized deo at work, and the whole family using samples of Colgate I picked up at the dentist last year :rotfl: DD (9yo) pleadingly asked me where the 'big one' was, but I've hidden it!

No UU yet, though I'm really enjoying my streamlined cosmetics drawer. Just like project 333, I feel *more* glam with *less* to choose from. Last night I had a shower and properly did my whole skincare routine, slathered Keihl's body butter all over myself, put hair cream in and went to bed smelling glooooorious. Have also removed nail polish and cut/filed nails in prep for painting them, whenever I get round to it!

fixx - I'm not bothering with an advent calendar. I did the same as you last year, I asked myself what I would actually be prepared to pay for each item (some were £0) and then added that up.

sstevo - I like the idea of the Hotel Chocolat one though - yum.

I have a uu

Dirty Works Peppermint Foot Butter - WMBA but do already have another tube as I got two when they were half price. It is nice but not amazing and I think Aqeous Cream works really well for feet.

Two UUs:
- Elemis frangipani monoi body oil mini. WBA - HG, love this oil, though I normally get them in some bonus deal, I've never paid full price.
- Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Mask mini. WMB - nice, though not the best one from Elemis.

TA
- Elemis Pro-Collagen Eye Renewal. Really irritated my eyes, made the skin red all around. I've let Elemis know and have a form from them to fill out.

So a few updates to my PP list, yay.

And some Ins:

- Sure deodorant, half price at boots, almost out.
- Nyx Cosmic metals palette
- Nyx concealer palette

The two NYX palettes were pressies to myself when starting xmas shopping in boots during the weekend points offer. Should feel guilty, but don't at all - I looooove the eyeshadow colours, and needed new concealer.

On eyeshadow, I have quite a lot of palettes now So I've started a new little routine - every evening once I'm home, or before bed, I've started doing some experimental eye makeup. I'm getting a much better idea of how to use the colours I have, and my technique is getting better too. Played with some blue, navy and petrol green colours this evening - bit odd, but fun.

UU
Aveeno body wash - 500ml
Garnier Express eye make up remover- 125ml
Garnier Moisture Bomb night cream - 50ml

INs
Nivea Night cream for dry/sensitive skin

Aveeno Apricot and Honey body wash (waited SO long to buy this!)

Hi everyone, I am going away tomorrow so packed some toiletries and hoping to use them. I UU'ed a couple of samples and 1 hand cream this week. Otherwise, it is a bit slow. My LF box has arrived and I have 6 INs. I will list them at some point. Hope all well.
