    I'm back in. Thanks Deleted_User for the new thread. I go away on Saturday and know there will be INs at the airport. Want a burnt orange lipstick- thinking of either MAC Chilli or seeing what UD have. May buy something from the MAC STAR TREK collection too. Need new mascara and will probably get a YSL Baby doll.

    My PP list will consist of the travel sized shampoos/conditioners and samples I take away with me. My full sized shampoo is spluttering too.

    Painted my toe nails last night and am wearing OPI Suzys Hungary again with Snow Globetrotting on top. Going to have Shellac applies to my fingernails tomorrow. Last day in work today. Take care everyone. See you in a week.

    Managed to UU 4 things recently so just took them off my list
    Big pot of Nivea cream - I love this and will buy again once I've got down on other creams
    A tube of Argan oil shampoo - was ok but bought by accident as I thought it was conditioner
    A bottle of agent provocateur perfume - smells gorgeous it was a gift from DH and I have another in the stash so bottle is being snuck out incase he thinks he needs to buy me more already.
    A tube of hand cream - again leaving one by the door is working well as that seems to be the fastest emptying tube in the house when in put there.

    I'm in again, thanks for the new thread!

    Hoping for 10 UUs this month - only managed 5 in August. (And 19 ins)

    I've also seen a "30 days of blush" challenge (different one every day for September) which I think I can manage, so am going to try that and see if I really do like all of the blushers I have. September always seems to be a good month for silly projects like that!

    I'm in again of course! Hoping to make some good progress in September/October before Christmas shopping sets in. I always end up buying myself stuff before Christmas, probably because I end up at the shops so much - stupid big family! - and there are so many offers on before Christmas.
    I've got a cleanser nearly done, an eyebrow pencil, and a hand cream which shouldn't last much longer so hopefully it won't be long before a UU! :)

    I know those Boots OOTWs are very tempting. Which reminds me I think they are due to start soon as I remember the first one being relesed when we were away last year which was 26 September. Anybody else spotted Christmas cards in the shops.

    Is this a You Tube challenge?

    I don't think I own 30 to be fair.

    I do have two other items that I've UU over the last few days. Have tried two sheet masks. First one was a Primark one which only covered half my face. Try as I may I could not peel it open to fit!! Did not like the serum afterwards though as it was sticky. Second was a Superdrug one which fit nicely but again not a fan of the stickiness afterwards.

    First UU for September
    50ml Real Extracts Coconut Body Butter 1/67

    I resisted the Neals' Yard hand cream magazine freeby today, but did buy off *bay a Tarte Tartlette Tease eye shadow palette. I had been lusting after a Stila one, but the colours in the Tarte seem better for me:D

    I have become really good at not buying clothes, shoes and books, I have a short mental list for each category and don't deviate from it often, having been through my toiletries/skin care stash this week I really need to translate this to toiletries. I did manage to talk myself out of buying a S&G or Champneys body butter this week:D shouldn't even have been considering it as I still have loads left to use:eek:

    No cards yet but the gift sets are creeping into boots and superdrug. Superdrug have what looks like all their Christmas stuff online. All the Zoella and Tanya Burr Christmas ranges are sold out already its crazy!

    I tried the primark sheet mask too btw and it took me absolutely ages to get it unfolded! Can't say I was a fan of it anyway.

    I've just looked up that palette, it's so pretty! I got the Showstopper palette in the Tarte QVC set and it's lovely. Very good quality :)

    I bought the Tarte Tarlette one from QVC a few months ago and I love it, the showstopper one looks nice too, but I need more pale shades, pink, lilac etc and they are so much more difficult to find, I wish that I could get to see more, such as the Pixi ones, IRL It is further complicated by the fact that I really need some of them to be matte:(
