Hi all,
I'm in again.

PP list for July:
Bath and Body Works Midnight Pomegranate fine fragrance mist
Olive oil soap with coconut
TBS banana conditioner
Superdrug red cherry and fig conditioner
Boots botanics face scrub
Original source green banana and bamboo milk shower gel
Sanctuary spa rose and white lily (?) shower gel
**All full size products which are all almost empty**
As many sample sachets as possible.
A lip product (either a balm or a colour).

That should keep me busy!

Have a great day everyone!

Thanks for the new thread sstevo!

I haven't had time to post yet this month because I have just been so busy UU toiletries :rotfl:
My count is at 7 for July already!!! I think 2 of these were technically the last day of June but I haven't been back on to post them

Charcoal shampoo sachet, WNB - can't believe I'm still finding sachets in the stash!
Clinique body butter 75ml tube - WPNB - used this up as handcream but I'm sure I can use a cheaper body butter/hand cream in the future
Batiste Blush dry shampoo, WBA - does the job it needs to!
Avon Experts nail base coat, WNBA - nothing special
Banana Boat SPF110 tube suncream, WNBA - I have already replaced this with the aerosol can version, the cream was so thick it was like rubbing in white paint :eek:
Veet sensitive hair removal cream, WBA - does the job
Boots cucumber face wipes, WBA - always buy these as they are so cheap, I only use face wipes at the weekend or when travelling so cheap and cheerful does the job

I hope this UU roll continues because I am leaving Hong Kong at the end of the month and will need to get rid of as much toiletries weight from my baggage as possible! And I would hate to throw away any of my stash!!!

Hi all, thanks for the new thread - I am in again.

Not a good start having just ordered the QVC TSV Elemis

Good few UU over the weekend though...
UU: Elemis Bkiss Capsules - WDBA love these
UU: Cooper peptide serum - Loved this and seen a difference in my skin
UU: Redken beach envy spray - WNBA did not give me any volume

July 3 UU 1 IN

I have tried it and whilst it is a perfectly nice shampoo I did not find it did anything that dramatic. I think maybe my roots were not quite as greasy, but not enough for me to go longer between shampoos. I was talking to my hairdresser about this and she immediately said 'why aren't you doing two shampoos?" (I don't buy my products from her so she wasn't trying to get me to buy more BTW). She said she advises everyone to do two shampoos unless they have short hair that is washed daily. I was sceptical because I have always heard that rinse and repeat was advised to sell more shampoo. I tried it and my roots definitely do not get greasy so quickly.

I will give it a go with the current in stash then. I too thought it was gimmick to sell more. Thanks for the tip

I have been lurking in the side lines and emotionally not in a good place for quite a while. The feeling is lifting, and actually made an effort today and used perfume, I always shower but perfume has seemed a waste of time!

I have joined a running club, lost a bit of weight and generally feel a bit healthier, now to start on the rest of me. Small steps, sun cream or day cream with spf for face, lip salve/chapstick, moisturiser for feet and if they are really lucky nail varnish!

Stocktake will take place over the weekend, products sorted and I anything that's past it's best thrown away. Wardrobe is due for decluttering too!

One UU tonight:

Paula's Choice Skin Recovery Enriched Calming Toner sample WDBA as full size. Once my stash has gone down a bit more, I will definitely purchase this. Maybe I'll buy it next month as I'm trying not to buy anything this month. This is gentle and hydrating. It's a really good toner.

Morning all

Couple of UUs for me.

1) VO5 texturising gum 30ml - WNBA was okay but didn't hold my hair very well and needed to use quite a bit to try and get a decent effect. There are other brands out there that I prefer and believe they do a better job.
2) Model Co lipgloss in striptease - WBA this is a good everyday colour and layers nicely over various lip colours. A little sticky but not overly so. Will use up my UD naked 2 first before purchasing.

morning all,

small UU over night for me - Charlotte Tilbury Miracle cream: WNBA perfectly nice but nothing special for the money.

I'm still around ladies but work has been hectic so am going to post and run. Had quite a few INs at the end of June:-

Avon Order:-

Deodorant
Senses Handwash
Skin so Soft body lotion
Care shea body lotion

Then there was the QVC ABC TSV AD (phew!) that I'd forgotten about:-

1l ABC Skinwash
500ml Lavender Skinwash
100ml body spray

The 1L skinwash had leaked so QVC are sending a replacement

Realised that I had bought a cotton wool roll rather than pads recently so had to buy some pads as the roll was annoying when trying to remove nail polish.

Ordered and received Kat von D Tattoo eyeliner. Opened it today and used it and feel my make up is complete again. Hurrah.

Had the opportunity to visit a big Boots on the weekend (went to Newcastle to take some things to Emma's new flat) and bought:-

3 x No 7 wipes
Seche Vite top coat
Essie Gel Setter Top coat
3 x L'oreal mascaras (Emma needed one. I wanted one ready to replace my current Revlon one and they were 3 for 2).
Batiste dry shampoo x 2

Phew.

I had some UUs too:-

Avon Senses handwash. I loved this hence why I've bought a replacement. New HG and cheap too.

Elemis Balancing Lime Blossom Cleanser. HG. Replacement already in stash.

NO 7 Stay Perfect eyeshadow. The GWP mini one. Finally finished this morning though it did crack about a week ago.

I think that's it. See you all soon.
